I usually agree with Mat. Not this time. I honestly don’t want this theory to be right at all, as it would have wasted all our time with a terrible retcon. It’s why we didn’t enjoy Dream Theory. I always figured that the FNaF games existed in the world of the FNaF games while the actual story of FNaF exist in our world as games. Given this story, I would propose that the illusion discs allow Fazbear Entertainment to let Steve see what they would want him to see. They would know, and with the discs, they could let him know too. Also, Scott confirmed that VR isn’t a reboot

Did he forget golden freddy is in princess quest? I'm not trying to say this aggressively I'm just asking

If I'm honest, I feel people look deeper into the indie game plot line than Scott actually intended. The main reason it even exists is because he simply wanted to make a canon entry that featured non canon and questionably canon characters, so he just made it so there were video games based on the events in-universe, it's no different than say the in-universe Chucky films established in Seed from the Child's Play series.

I'd understand it more if Matpat didn't feel SL-6 (and partly UCN given he thinks it's an event that occurs) were real given those heavily rely on information from 1-4 to work. As well as if VR and SB didn't have a lot of stuff that implied they still existed such as Fazbear Entertainment using the original circuit boards in VR as an example.

Also the part about it being like Dream Theory is exactly part of the reason I doubt it, Scott has made fun of Dream Theory on multiple occasions such as during UCN's development for April Fools and in the teaser for Freddy in Space 2. Considering that, I don't really think he'd pull what is pretty much the same idea.

Also I find it strange he dismisses the idea of FNaF AR being canon because he doesn't like the idea of Shamrock Freddy and Chocolate Bonnie existing when FNaF AR's emails do give in-universe explanations for those two in particular. Not to mention Security Breach doubles down on AR's canonicity with many references to the skins and the tapes mentioning Luis.

In conclusion, yeah not a fan of this one.

Indiegames using the story that debunks indiegames

👍︎︎ 66 👤︎︎ u/LemmytheLemuel 📅︎︎ Nov 05 2022 🗫︎ replies

great, another video that will make me question why people even enjoy fnaf lore.

👍︎︎ 25 👤︎︎ u/1FenFen1 📅︎︎ Nov 05 2022 🗫︎ replies

There are several problems with this video.

  1. Matpat misinterpreted the lines from the Tape Girl and thought the games from 1-UCN weren't real, relating to his past video which got debunked by Scott.
  2. The Power Modules are Power Modules and they aren't Illusion Disks. If they're Illusion Disks, then how come we don't see a blueprint of an Illusion Disk?
  3. I don't see how the first story of HAPPS proves the games never existed, it told us the backstory of an Indie Game Developer making these for Fazbear Entertainment's VR game.
  4. Golden Freddy is Fredbear. He never had Purple Accessories until FNaF 4 came out, considering Spring Bonnie had Black Props from the Easter Egg Poster from FNaF 3, and he existed as a paranormal Fredbear entity.

This is by far the worst FNaF theory video I have ever seen. Also, he needs to stop making misleading thumbnails that point to anything.

Always thought the games The Dev made were the Fnaf 1-4 Remakes you played in HW.

Someday Matpat will make a theory about how Afton and Golden Freddy will destroy the universe in a god-like battle that reboots the entire franchise from scratch, but that they're stuck on a loop in which the battle repeats itself every time the reboot happens.

What if I told you that everything we thought  we knew about FNAF was a lie? That Freddy,   Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy were never possessed? that   the bite of 87 never happened? Heck,  that the bite of 83 never happened. What if I told you that William Afton didn't die  because some spirits harassed him in a back room,   but because he got careless and wet?  What if I told you that Golden Freddy   never existed? You would all  think that I was crazy, right? That after 60 episodes covering this series,  that I'd finally lost it or gotten so desperate   that I needed you to throw it all away and  start again for content. But I assure you,   I'm still here. Totally sane, or,  I guess as seen as I've ever been,   and totally suspecting that some,  maybe even all of the statements that I just made are 100% true. So open your  ears and listen to what I have to say,   because once I'm done, none of us will  look at this franchise the same way again. Hello Internet! Welcome to Game Theory, where am I  the only one that hears that weird humming sound?   I think it's coming from the subscribe button,  can you help me smash it? Oh, thank goodness,   that was driving me insane. What's the small  disc that fell out? Probably not important. Today is a big day as far as FNAF theory goes.  Usually I'm here picking apart details from   the newest book or trying to solve one very  specific part of the franchise's history,   or reminding you that robot kids do, in  fact, exist. And Gregory is one of them. But this episode has a wider scope. It's  bigger. It touches literally everything   released in the franchise thus far.  I don't know if I agree with today's   theory or not. I don't even know  if I like today's theory or not. Scratch that. I do know, I kind of  hate it and what it means for the   franchise. But regardless of whether you  agree or disagree, love it or hate it,   I am asking you to keep an open mind about  it because this one feels important and   the implications of it, if true, would  certainly result in the biggest shake up for the series since the conclusion of FNAF 6.  Today, I'm asking you to take everything that   you thought you knew about FNAF 1, 2, 3 and  4. Possessed animatronics, the crying child,   the missing children's incident, the  entire existence of Golden Freddy. Take all of that and burn it to the  ground. Maybe not burn it, We've seen   that that tends not to work. Take it all and  put it through a paper shredder or something,   will ya? Because none of it matters. None  of it! It’s all wrong. Or maybe it isn't. But before I explain why, I have to tell  you that brand new holiday Theorywear is   available right now. And while I might not be the  hugest fan of the implications of today's theory,   I am the hugest fan of the merch  that we've got lined up for you. Starting off with the newest addition to my  rainbow of jackets: Turquoise. You guys know   at this point that I love me some bright,  colorful jackets, right? You may also know   that a couple of years ago I partnered with  Creator Ink to make my own ideal jacket. Vegan leather zips on the pockets to  keep them secure, a special interior   pocket that's a little bit larger to fit a  tablet or a Nintendo switch. And overall,   a stylish well-fitting, brightly colored jacket.  And I got to say, we hit it out of the park. It is indeed my favorite jacket. The  only thing that I don't like about it   is that it's only one color. And I want  to be able to wear any color I want at   any time I want. So this time we remade the  jacket in a beautiful, vibrant turquoise. It's a color that I always wanted in jacket form  but could never find in the store. So you know   what? We just went out and chose it ourselves.  So add this one to your collection my friends Yep. That didn't fit in the cadence at  all. Or, you know, maybe you prefer your   jackets with a bit more LOOOORE! Well,  if you need a jacket that screams, I love   puzzle solving. Get ready. We've got the next  installment of our Puzzle Jacket line as well. The Quest Jacket Volume three. It's not just  a jacket, it's an experience. Basically,   this thing is an escape room that you can  wear, complete the puzzle that's built   into the various parts of this jacket,  and you win yourself a special prize. The Quest jacket is something that was  created by us. We're the only people   crazy enough to make a wearable item that is  also a series of puzzles and lore. In fact,   we reached out to a couple of factories  and they outright told us, No,   we will not make this jacket for  you because we were asking them to print things in places where you  don't normally print. It is just very   complicated to make these jackets. There's  a reason we're the only people to do them,   and I think you're going to have a blast with  this one because there's even more challenging   puzzles to solve and a much more fashionable  design making this one more wearable than Quest Number 1. So are you ready to uncover  the mystery and save the Galaxy? Good luck   Space Ace! Believe it or not, though,  we also have things that aren't jackets.   Like our 4 channel candle set. Ever  wonder what the channel smells like? Probably haven't. Because. Well, why would you?  But dear viewers, smell-o-vision is finally a   thing. With these candles themed around each of  our four channels, we've carefully constructed   four signature scents that we think really help  encapsulate each of the channels perfectly screen   fiend; which smells like red plum and cinnamon.  witty banter; with hints of jasmine and mint Mid-episode regret, very familiar with that  one, but it smells of beautiful sandalwood.   And my personal favorite Fresh Lore; giving  you that clean aroma of linen. These candles   are made of soy, which means that they burn  clean. They also last for up to 40 hours. So if your a gamercave is starting to  smell a bit too much like Doritos and   Mountain Dew. These candles may just  be your perfect get. Or if you want   another way to set some mood lighting,  check out our game theory plasma orb. We've harnessed the power of lightning  and mixed in some game theory to turn it   into our signature green. When you touch it,  you're going to feel like a super powered mad   scientist. And this is a big boy. Lots of the  online plasma orbs tend to be small, but nope,   we went with the jumbo size here, so you are  harnessing a lot of lightning on your desk.   Anyway, these are just a few of the items that  we got going on. There's an awesome blanket,   lounge pants, a t- shirt, hoodie. There's  even a FNAF NASCAR jacket and a lava lamp. It did that thing where I said yes to too many  merch ideas, but gotta be honest with you,   I love them all so much. Oh, and also  there's some flim theory merch in there,   too. Kind of cool, I guess. But all of it is  waiting for you down in the description below. And he better do it quick before I decide to  retcon it all out of existence. Speaking of   Retconning, back in 2019, we got the release  of Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted,   otherwise known as FNAF VR, a game that to this  day ranks as my third favorite from the franchise. On one hand, it was looking forward to the next  phase of the series by introducing a new villain,   Glitchtrap, but it also had its  feet firmly planted in the past,   a culmination of everything that had  come before in a very literal way,   by collecting the first three games  and turning them into VR experiences. It really felt like an inflection  point for the series. A transition   from the old story of a serial  killer in a haunted pizzaria,   to the news stories it had yet to tell about  the killer living on through technology. But buried in the game were some  lines that made everyone stop and go,   Huh? Right at the top, we got this moment. With the lunatics shown on screen being,   of course, the picture of Scott Cowathon  himself. It felt like good meme fodder,   a funny metal joke that also poked fun at Fazbear  entertainment, papering over their bloody history. But then the game chose to double  down. In one of the game's hidden   war tapes. We learned more about this lunatic  spreading lies about theFazbear restaurants. It was weird. It seemed like  FNAF VR was actively throwing   into question everything we thought  we knew about the franchise's lore. At the time, I went on the record to say this: And that's largely where the community left  it, it was a bit of a weird call for the   series to disregard everything that had come  before, but honestly, it would have been fine. Here's the old original story  arc with the first six games,   and here's the new one moving forward,  two separate story arcs told within the   same universe. Fine. Until Security Breach came  out. Suddenly Springtrap was a key player again,   and we were exploring the burned  remains of the FNAF 6 \ location. And the idea of the first six games  being the crazed ramblings of a hired   lunatic were largely forgotten as  we were thrust yet again back into   the story of the Aftons. Business as usual.  Only this time there was Muuuuuuuuusic-Man. So that was pretty much the status quo for  the past year. But then in late September,   the unthinkable happened.  We got another book. I know,   I know. I said the B-word. I'm sorry,  but stick with me. This one's different. You see, this one delivers on the hope that  we've had for the books from the very beginning,   that they would take small moments from the games  and expand upon them to bring more clarity. Care   to guess what moment from the games they chose to  expand upon? The story of a rogue indie developer   hired by Fazbear Entertainment to create a series  of games covering up the company's shady past.   And if there was any lingering doubt as to  how this story fit into the games, the title   was none other than Help Wanted. I'm about to  summarize what exactly happens in the story,   but the tl;dr of it is exactly what we predicted  back in 2019 that everything you thought you   knew about the franchise is dead. Just not  exactly in the way that we thought, and it   suddenly changes everything about how we should  be approaching this franchise moving forward. In the story, we follow a character named  Steve, an indie game developer stuck in a dead   end job while working on a, quote, fetch quest  based game featuring cartoony chipmunks. Now,   what could that be a reference to Scott? Just like  we hear about in FNAF VR, Steve is contacted by   Fazbear Entertainment to create a series of  games in order to help rebrand the company. At first, he turns down the offer, not the company  to take no for an answer Fazbear then sets up an   elaborate plot where they catfish Steve into  a date with the woman of his dreams during the   date he passes out only to wake up and find that  suddenly he's married to the woman and suffering   from severe memory loss. This happens a few more  times, waking up to discover that he now has   children or that the house he lives in is being  foreclosed. Suddenly in desperate need of money.   He contacts Fazbear Entertainment and starts  making games for them, four games to be specific. All the while, a constant ringing is happening  in his ears. Bit by bit, he becomes more sleep   deprived and paranoid, which then feeds into his  games. At night he's haunted by night terrors,   horrific monsters that keep popping out of the  walls, which only pushes him to work harder. And throughout it all, the ringing continues  to build, rotting his brain. Eventually, Steve   discovers what's going on. The high pitched sound  that he keeps hearing has been creating illusions   used to gaslight him. His house? Just a series  of blank rooms. the night terrors? Amusement park   jump scares coming out of the walls. His beautiful  family? Robots with plastic faces and wheels,   their physical description actually sounds a  lot like the staff boss. Steve is then given a   choice of going back to the miserable real world  or returning to the happiness that he felt inside   the illusion. He chooses the illusion, giving  his robot wife a hug who then stabs him to death. Oh, also there's a DJ on the radio called  DJ Dan the Music Man! It's not important to   the lore It's just for the memes. It is a super  sad story. It's also in no way a “Tale from the   Pizzaplex” considering the places isn't mentioned  once. But more than anything else, it's a story   that confirms some of our greatest fears about the  franchise. First and foremost, illusion discs are   now officially a thing in the game. If you don't  know what Illusion discs are, then good for you. You clearly avoided reading the novels.  I, however, not so lucky. Basically,   these things use high pitched noises to  trick the human mind into creating intensely   real illusions of things that aren't really  there: A robot appears exactly like a human,   a pizzeria is more decorated than it actually  is, characters turn practically invisible on   camera. These are all ways that they've been  used in the books, but up until this point,   we've never had a reason to believe  that they were in the game universe. The only time that I've suspected that they  might be a thing in the games is this scene   from Sister Location when we remove a random  flashing disk from fun time Freddy's chest.   It was just speculation at the time but  now going back, listen to that scene. You hear it? That buzzing? That humming  is only present and scenes where we're   directly interacting with an  animatronic in close proximity. Just saying there might have been more evidence  to suggest that these things were actually in the   games earlier than we thought. But hindsight's  2020 with this new story. We know it's valid   technology and that has huge implications for  things that we see throughout Security Breach,   like when we hear high pitched ringing and have  distorted vision any time Vanny runs past us. Why glam rock Freddy apparently can't see Vanny  until he gets Roxy's eyes. It's all much more   likely now because she's using illusion discs. It  may also play in to the mystery of who Patient 46   is. In retro CD number 15 we hear this clip. One of the consistent features of the Illusion   Discs is that they distort or blur any images that  appear on camera. We see this all throughout The   Fourth Closet. So the fact that the still  image and the distortion are directly being   called out here in the CDS indicate that Patient  46 may also be hiding behind an illusion disc.   Who knows if my guess was right and Gregory is  meant to be patient 46. That could be why he's   appearing all blurry here in the camera shots  from the DLC poster. Admittedly, that opens up   its own can of worms and contradictions  that would merit their own discussion. Like, why would he be clear in all these other  pictures? I'm just tossing that out as something   for us to chew on. Much more importantly, though,  the Help Wanted story confirms that FNAF 1, 2,   3, and 4 are canonically video games  within Freddy's fictional universe. They were created by a hired gun. A hired  gun who in the story is confirmed to not   be familiar with the events that happened  at Freddy's. Quote from the story:“It took   a few seconds for the name Fazbear to ring  a bell. But then Steve remembered the kids’   pizza places that had once been wildly popular  but had suffered a downfall after a variety of   criminal allegations. There had been talk  of murders, though Steve didn’t remember   how many. There was weirder stuff, too…  stories about paranormal events and that   kind of nonsense.” Steve doesn't actually  know the stories and events that took place. He doesn't remember how many kids died. He  doesn't believe in paranormal activity. He   is an unreliable narrator, which therefore  puts everything in those first four games   into question. He knew rumors of paranormal  activity, so he created possessed animatronics. He knew about murders, so he put in mini games  depicting kids being murdered. As for the facts,   though, he cannot be trusted and the story  tries to make it crystal clear that FNAF 4   was largely of his own creation, borne out of  the torture that Fazear was subjecting him to. As his hallucinations get more nightmarish,   Steve starts seeing monsters literally appear out  of the walls. One of them is described as follows,   quote:“It was the head of … something.  It was small but bulbous and veined,   its large eyes almond-shaped with catlike  pupils. It lunged forward from the hole in   the wall and parted its jaws to reveal a mouthful  of sharp-looking teeth. Its pointed tongue darted   out like a snake’s when it sniffed the air.”  This moment isn't just to show a Steve's torture,   it's to show us the influence that  it has on the games that he's making. Look at that description. Does it remind you of  anything? A character with catlike eyes, a long   pointed tongue, sharp teeth, who likes to pop out  unexpectedly? It's Nightmare Foxy from FNAF 4.   Look at this picture from the teasers leading up  into the game, especially the long pointed tongue. Who else pops out from the closet, from under  the bed, from behind the TV in that game? Foxy,   the book is spelling out for us  why that game is so different,   why it's no longer a game about Fazbear Pizzeria. The torture became so much that the story had  shifted from being a Fazbear story to being a   Steve story. 4 games. 1 story. It’s the clue  that Scott gave us a long time ago during a   live stream after the release of FNAF 4. At first  I suspected the line was all about dream theory,   that all of it was happening in the  nightmares of a child. And I think   that one was right. Then it shifted to  the four games being about one family,   the Aftons. As their kids grappled with the sins  of their father. And I think that was also right. But now it's changed once again. It's  now four games about one new story,   Steve's Story, the story of a  game designer that was being   gaslit by an evil robotics company.  You know, I got to hand it to Scott. It's actually impressive how many times he's  been able to make that single phrase describe   the same set of four games. It also means that  Scott gets to have his cake and eat it, too. He   gets to make those first four games the equivalent  of dream theory without it actually being a dream. Oh was the puppet referred to as a he and funny  to him? Steve didn't know. Were there five   victims? 10? 15 in that first set of pizzerias?  Don't know. Steve's just making his best guess.   But most importantly of all, it means that  anything that doesn't physically appear in   or after sister location and beyond is suddenly  cast into doubt. And when you think about it,   that includes some major parts of the lore. For  instance, we know that Michael Afton is, in fact,   a security guard for Fazbear entertainment at  some point, thanks to the security logbook. Plus,   with Sister Location and FNAF 6, we know that  he ends up getting scooped and dying in a fire. Sister Location also proves the  existence of Elizabeth Afton and   how she got scooped by Baby. But  the third Afton kid Crying Child,   he's never been mentioned in any other game  other than FNAF 4. I made theories suggesting   that he's the other spirit communicating  with Cassidy in the survival log book. But you know, that's just speculation because  I assume that he existed. in FNAF 6’s MIdnight   Motorist there's reason to believe that  he's the one who broke out of the house,   considering that Mike in the  chair says he's had a hard night. But again, that is pretty weak evidence.  Honestly, the closest we get to having   physical evidence of his existence is  in Security Breach’s post-it room where   there's a dinner scene made up of five staff bots  that appear to be simulating the Afton family. And one of those five is missing its head,  which we've assumed represents the Crying   Child getting chommped. But all of that  evidence only stands because the crying   child was thought to exist thanks to the  first four games. Maybe that's why we've   never actually gotten the name for him, because  he was never meant to exist in the first place. And so Scott purposely hid the name in  order to allow the fifth Afton Child's   identity to remain anonymous.  Ready for a big plot twist when   it turns out that he has another child,  maybe a daughter, maybe called Vanessa. It's speculative as all heck. I'm just  throwing it out there as a consideration.   Henry and Charlie are definitely in  this universe. We see Charlie's death   in possession of the puppet thanks to the  minigames in FNAF 6. So that's all confirmed. But the missing children's incident  where five kids were murdered at the   FNAF 1 location? unclear. It's likely  that it happened considering that in   FNAF 6’s Lore Keeper ending. We see five  gravestones with one on a hill. The five   missing children's incident victims plus  Charlie, the six victims of William Afton. It's the same thing with Princess Quest to  move forward in the Princess Quest minigame,   you have to light six gravestones. So it seems  like those five murders happened. But then   what about the extra five dead bodies that we  see appearing throughout the FNAF 2 pizzeria? What about hearing that the pizzeria  is getting closed down in the tapes?   Even less clear. FNAF VR’s main ending proves  that William Afton is still the main killer in   this universe and that he definitely  stuffed kids into the animatronics. However, whether those kids go on to possess  the animatronics is up for debate. Without   the first four games being officially canon,  we don't really have any evidence for their   possession. But perhaps the biggest ripple  effect of them, all this new understanding   of the canonicity heavily suggests that  Golden Freddy may never have existed. That's right. My favorite clickbait Yellow Boy  may not actually be a thing in this franchise   at all. Consider this. Golden Fredd, while  seemingly the super important piece of the   lore to the franchise hasn't shown up  in a major way in any recent titles,   he's only ever shown up in titles with  questionable canonicity like FNAF World,   which is definitely not canon. Custom Night,  which is Afton’s personal hell. And FNAF AR   which isn't really canon. And if you think it  is, then both Shamrock Freddy and Chocolate   Bonnie are canon. And I refuse to live in  a world where that could possibly be true. But in the main games? nothing. In Sister  Location, his name is used in a Custom Night   challenge. In FNAF 6 completely absent. And in  Security Breach. Sure, there's a Golden Glamrock   Freddy that you can collect, but there's a golden  toy of every character that you can collect. In fact, I think Security Breach was outright  trying to tell us that Golden Freddy has never   been a thing. Of the dozens of collectibles  that you can find throughout the game:   plushies, figurines, keychains, sweaters.  Four of them actually seemed important. Three posters from FredBear's Family Diner,   and an even older one from FredBear’s Singin’  Show. The Singin’ Show is… I don't know,   man. It makes it look like the next game is going  to be a crossover with Bendy and the Ink Machine. But the FredBears Family Diner ones  are the ones that I want to focus on   now. Look at these things. One of them has  the Golden Bonnie with a purple bow tie,   just like you'd expect. But the other two show us  a brown bear with a black hat and a black bow tie. And you see, that is a huge detail. Up  until this point, we've been under the   impression that there were only two mascots  at FredBear's Family Diner; Golden Bonnie and   Golden Freddy. And FNAF 3 we see a Golden Bonnie  and Golden Freddy performing together on stage. Similarly, In FNAF 4. We see Golden Bonnie  and Golden Freddy again. It was always those   two together with other characters like Foxy and  Chica not showing up until later. So why then in   Security Breach would they show us a regular  Freddy as the one on the FredBear posters? Unless he is FredBear. It's everything that we've  been talking about today. Our evidence for Golden   Freddy is all founded upon the original four FNAF  titles, games made by a guy whose brain was slowly   turning to mush. But when you actually stop and  look for the physical evidence of who FredBaer   was in the games that are still considered to  be canon, all we get is a brown bear. Golden   Freddy was never real. He never existed. I  know it seems wild, but it actually helps   answer a lot of questions that we've had  about Golden Freddy throughout this franchise. First off, his wildly inconsistent appearance.  In both FNAF 1 and 2 he appears gold with a black   hat and bow tie. But in the final two mini  games showing Charlie being killed outside   FredBear's Family Diner, the Freddy we play  as is brown with a black hat more similar to   the FredBear that we see in the posters for  Security Breach. In the FNAF 3 minigame that   apparently shows us FredBear's Family Diner.  He goes back to being gold with a black hat,   but then in FNAF 4s minigame he's shown  to be gold with a purple hat and bow tie. His appearance has never remained consistent,  which could make sense that these are games   being made by a guy who is under extreme  duress. If Golden Fredd isn't around,   then who could have done the bite of 83?  Well, it could be that that never happened. We've never seen a gravestone for Crying Child  after all. If Golden Freddy doesn't exist,   then where does Cassidy's soul reside?  Well, again, we still don't have any   proof that the original missing children  actually possessed any animatronics. All   their souls may have just moved on or  been immediately converted into remnant. Cassidy only really appears in Ultimate  Custom Night, so either their spirit is   attached to Afton’s like Andrews is and the  FansBear Fright series, or it's just William   torturing himself over the memory of this  one child that he murdered in cold blood. Long story short, I still haven't fully  worked out the ramifications of all this,   and I'd love your help working through  it, because this revelation about the   first four games being games demands a  whole new way of looking at the series. The ripple effects of this revelation are huge and  casts even more doubt into stuff that we thought   that we knew about the games. I mean, with all the  new books and games and revelations. That we've   had since the release of Security Breach I've  been meaning to do a “State of the Lore” video   for a while just to make sure that we're all  operating on the same page of what is true and   what isn't true. Because at this point it's hard  for even me to keep track of what we've proved. What's only speculation, all of that. And after  episodes like today, that sort of video feels   more important than ever. So keep an eye out for  that one in the next couple of weeks. Which means   that I'm back to researching FNAF from square one  and I thought we were done with the scary season. But hey! At least while I'm pulling my hair out,  I can look good doing it thanks to my new Game   Theory merch, which just as one final reminder is  linked down in the description of this video. So   grab yourself a jacket, a hoodie, one of the other  jackets, a plasma ball, one of the other hoodies,   one of the other jackets. We’ve got a lot  of jackets and hoodies right now. Anyway,   grab one of those items or multiple of  those items before they're all gone. Now,   if you'll excuse me, I got to go hide  under my new Game Theory Blanket. Just the thought of revisiting all of this lore  yet again, is making me have nervous sweats. I   guess I'll see you all next week. Unless I decide  to stay under here forever. But, hey, that's just   the theory, A Game Theory! Thanks for watching. And hey, if you want to go back to a time when   we thought we knew the ins  and outs of this franchise,   click here to watch our previous timeline on  the series. Ah yes, the days before Fazgoo  Or if you're in the mood for horror game  lore that hasn't been entirely retcon yet,   why not click the video on the right  where I predict the story of Poppy Play   Time Chapter three. And with that,  as always, I'll see you next week.
