Scott should hire the same artist you do for your thumbnails to make official art... damn BarBADroid (thank you for including credits in the description)
they do SUCH a good job at capturing the already present fnaf art style, like didn’t they also make the glam bonnie everyone used before we saw him officially? or am i misremembering :0!
Yep.. I don't know how long we'll stand out but I don't think we have reached halfway of the story yet, after all 12 years, it doesn't feel like we've reached the halfway point
The only issue I have with Glitchtrap = Mimic is that we can see that Glitchtrap has Supernatural Powers. Especially with the mind control abilities and with HW2 where we can be put into a Staffbot. The same implies with Burntrap.
Sometimes, I get the feeling that the Mimic Endo line "mimicking in unexpected ways" is trying to imply that the animatronics were never actually haunted. The mimics were just mimicking the missing children.
that lines up SO perfecly with my theory of help wanted covering up way less than the games imply (ie just the MCI happened, no more killing/remnant shenanigans after that)
Things I think. 1. I think in a future fnaf game we will see all the Fnaf 4 Bullies somehow Reunite - Reconcile and Team up to finally take down Fazbear Entertainment (also I personally think Cassie’s dad isn’t fully dead but he’s lost his body and is now just a Consciousness in the Network and He could possibly make a return). 2. I remember on game theory how they said that this era of Fnaf is how the Actions of the Aftons began affecting those around them and the return of minor Characters, so I think it’s possible that we will see Minor Characters from past games take on much bigger roles. 3. I think it’s possible that Freddy Fazbear’s Mega Pizzaplex wasn’t the only modern Faz-Ent LLC Location and I think we’ll actually be seeing many more Locations just like it. 4. If ryetoast theory about the Vanny persona is right than I think that it’s possible that just like with Vanessa we’ll be given the chance to Save/Free Cassie from Vanny but then she might either look for a new Host/Vessel or perhaps she’ll somehow gain her own Physical Form whether she makes an Animatronic Body or from an Agony Manifestation, also if Gregory was also like Vanessa then what happened to the Doctor Rabbit Persona, was it also removed and if so where is it. 5. In Help Wanted 2 during Fazer-Blast there are cutouts of Lolzhax and I was thinking that perhaps fnaf is foreshadowing bringing him into the mainline games as a new villain (which I think would be super interesting). 6. They should make a Fnaf Game where we play as William Afton as a child and discover why he became the way he did. 7. Even though Fnaf AR isn’t up anymore the game itself does sprinkle a lot of futur potential because the Emails and Scrapped Emails introduce a lot of Human Characters that could be added into future games. 8. If Security Breach ever gets more DLC that would be a perfect chance to give Bonnie - Chica and Monty a child just like Freddy and Roxy, perhaps the kids from TFTP story GGY, Tony could get Bonnie, Amelia Could get Chica and Ellis could get Monty, and if Into the Pit is canon to the mainline timeline then If their is a Glamrock Foxy maybe Oswald could get him.
I don’t think we need a game to see why William is the way he is Not everyone has a reason for doing bad things, some people do it because they are just bad people, William is one of those people
The bullies can't take down a corporate entity. William is just sick, giving him a bigger motive seems like giving him a sort of redemption, which he does deserve. TLDR, I don't think that any of this will happen simply because it's not a novel or a movie, it's a timeline through video games.
@@AngelTheory-M You can't really say they are wrong, when nothing you said is concrete information either. Everything you are saying has just as much of a chance to be wrong as OP's theories.
I always hoped the next game would be somewhat based on Candy Cadet’s story, with Cassie returning to the Pizzaplex years later as an adult, looking for revenge for what happened to her. We’d find out how she survived throughout the game, and learn more about Gregory and Vanessa and such that way. Of course, I’ve heard other interpretations of Candy Cadet’s Ruin story, but this was the first thing that popped into my head when I heard it, and I still love the story to this day.
I think the Afton abomination was hinting at glam rock Freddy’s story, Roxy’s eyes, Chica’s voice and Monty’s endo house parts of glitchtrap, and Freddy’s safe mode destroys glitchtrap.
I personally agree with most of your Mimic timeline, however I think one of the main reasons for Glitchtrap possessing Vanessa was to free The Mimic. If you remember from the epilogues of the Tales, The Mimic was last seen being springlocked and deactivated in its own Jester costume. So one of the first commands Mimic1 gave to Vanny was to use Freddy to clear the path into FFPS and free its main vessel from its eternal prison and then give it a sick William Afton cosplay.
There is a major similarity between the kids in the dci and the dead kids from the ball pit, not stuffed and killed by William, presumably while wearing springbonnie.
I am very curious myself where the franchise goes after SOTM like we have to go back to see how Cassie is after the ending of the DLC. The blob has to come back into play in the story to be dealt with as well.
I don't know what will happen tbh, But what I really want is for the Glamrocks to get fully repaired and saved in the future, I want Cassie, Roxy, Gregory, Freddy, Vanessa, Chica, Monty and maybe Bonnie to all get the happy ending they deserve after SOTM, I know it's a horror franchise, But there's a lot of horror franchises that have happy endings and wholesome moments, I just really want to see it, I really hope they don't do a timeskip, They really need to continue where Ruin left off. Obviously the happy ending for everyone/The best ending should be the hardest one to get as the games are doing multiple endings now.
Yeah, it doesn't seem the ruin era ended, because we fell down the elevator, And heard someone say "Cassie" And left at a cliff hanger. So it's possible that the ruin dlc will get a continuation for that.
Hopefully the elevator ending is canon and not the Scooper. If that is the case, then there will probably be another Mimic unit that operates the same as the current unit.
ngl, I feel like The Springlocked Era is a sorta more fitting name for The Springtrap Era. Along with The Mimic Era being called The Mimicked Era, but both versions sound good so might as well roll the dice.
9:04 Imo, this should be yellow, because we don’t know if all that came before this is point for point true, since we know the games were commissioned to be made by Fazbear Entertainment itself.. It’s basically just not confirmed that the games were all true exactly how they’re portrayed.
It would really be interesting for them to explore other places in the press, telling how the accidents happened, and other places in the press would be to see how all these old events and new history
Every morning I wake up,go to the mirror and mutter my positive affirmations "It was looking,not like Chica or Bonnie would but REALLY looking" repeatedly
at this point, Steel Wool really needs to stick with the glamrock era. Security breach gave us an amazing setting, a villain with untapped potential, and an animatronic band that is unanimously loved. They're sentient, individual characters with their own personalities, WITHOUT being possessed (now if only fanfics would realize this), and when they aren't trying to hunt the player, they're genuinely nice. I can't think of a nother fnaf time period where so much of the fandom has wanted a way to side with the animatronics, or at least a way to have them side with the player. all of my friends who played it say that they would actually WORK there just to have an excuse to go all the time. come on, Steel Wool. let Glamrock Freddy be the face of fnaf. he's OUR superstar.
Fnaf SB has the most theories that ties to every other game of the franchise with Help Wanted 2, Ruin, Into the Pit and Special Delivery. All theories tying to past events are also tied to a more modern character Mimic, who also has a long past before all the events even leading up to today. This means that our theories are at the very center of the timeline in its entirety. Not a single theory has strayed from the FNAF timeline and can be connected in more ways than one to each portion of the timeline.
I don't see how "robot mindlessly thinks it's doing chores but killing people" can be as big of a theeat as serial child murderer. I hope the minic gets beefed up as a threat rather than being aorta gone and forgotten like Ennard (okay, not forgotten. But lost potential, let's say)
Thats what im saying, everyone got hyped by a villain that isnt William Antonio but no one stopped to think what will this bozo even do(glitchtrap at least was a big threat)
9:05 this i dont think is "confirmed"by any means fazbear DID create help wanted to cover up something, but what exactly it was is never stated personally, i think that the MCI happened but the story "ends there", no DCI or remnant or springtrap etc, and the game developer just extrapolated from there obviously now the mimic wants to copy the games and thats what it will do
Hmm🤔 Now if Gregory is Evil.. (Because dropped Cassie down Elevator, I Theorize The Noise that Happens while Gregory is talking being the Elevator's hinges Cutting off, resulting in the Fall, Not The Mimic taking over) It Could be for Cassie, While in her Dying Moments, Connects to The Real William who's Spirit IS probably still in the Fnaf 6 Location, In UCN( or Somewhere else if Princess is Still Cassidy, Meaning William Got out) That In order to Live, She must make a Devil pact of sorts.
thinking about what rye said about the mimic posing as roxy, what if the voice cassie hears after gregory makes the elevator fall is the mimic imitating roxy and maybe convince her to go after greagory and the gang by gaslighting her into beleving he betrayed her (which ti an extent it's kinda true) but the mimic would spin it in a way that makes it look that gergory was never her friend and only wanted to get close to her because her father was a fazbear technitcian and would have acess to all sort of useful devices
I think the color system is a great idea. I believe it adds a layer of credibility and objectivity to your theory crafting. I vote you adopt it for all videos discuss past evidence.
10:14 on just the most unrelated possible note, i find it interesting that they used FNAF 1 foxy for phantom foxy, when it was withered foxy in fnaf 3. i never actually played help wanted 1, but i did play help wanted 2. it's a really great game. i definitely like withered freddy and foxy's designs much more than their classic counterparts
I still think that the Mimic is the original from the hips upwards with new legs attached afterwards. The upper section of the Ruin Mimic has pistol style arms, and torso connectors suggesting it can increase and decrease the length of its arms. The legs look different than the top half because they were attached later on, and they cannot morph size.
Have a question so in the first fnaf game the newspaper says Family pizzeria does that mean the people that own it are family And if so could they be related to the Emily's or the Afton's?
When family is used in that context, it's usually referring to being a 'family-friendly' restaurant. With FNAF... who knows. It _could_ have some hidden meaning.
I think I found something. The exact date of the carnival fire was a lunar eclipse, as hinted in HW2, which gives us a very close range of dates among 1970 and 1985, specially there was a TOTAL eclipse on FALL 1979 (SOTM year).
0:06 I really desperately want to know what takes place after security breach other than Hw2.. plus I also want to find out more about what happened to FNAF 6's ending. Because nobody said that they randomly died out, especially, Afton survived. Scrap baby is in hw2 so she supposedly survived as well.
I had this stupid Idea for a game after Security Breach where Gregory and Vanessa try to get a Freddy a new body. How they do this? They take part in a underground robot fighting ring. Where the the winning robot team can take the opponents parts to upgrade itself. So it's like a combat game where you customize Freddy with deadly weapons to fight even more deadly robots.
As silly as that sounds, FNAF _has_ always been pretty good about making each game something new and unique. I could honestly see this working, bizarrely.
@@Mega-Brick Yeah. I think it's a good thing for Fnaf to branch out and try other genres of games. Pizzeria Sims is one of my favorite because it tries something different. They don't have to abandon the horror aspect. Maybe have like one or two creepy sections that can happen at any point in the game so that it keeps people on the edge. Like what if in my Fighting game idea Freddy loses a scripted match and get thrown in a robot junkyard and has to face dismantled and creepy robots to get out of there.
First, you hook me in with my ultimate Mario Jam (Gusty Garden Galaxy) and now you've come up with a brilliant idea to show us the importance of the Lore discussed? That's what keeps me around! I love The Stoplight and I hope other Theorists take on the Idea while crediting you, of course. As for me? Good Ol' Occam's Razor Returns: The Mimic is now the main Problem that's gonna get worse and worse until someone shows up with a giant sledgehammer for the Endo and a giant magnet and a bucket of water to destroy every computer/piece of technology it's infected. WILLIAM AFTON IS FINALLY FUCKING DEAD PHYSICALLY/ GLITCHTRAP but his Legacy of Horror and Misery marches on through Vanny and god knows who else until they're Freed somehow and then they team up to get rid of Fazbear Entertainment again and keep it GONE by any means necessary. It could be another Fire or they could switch it up and use Drowning like in OMC's domain plus the Stitchwraith/Eleanor Saga in the Epilogues but we don't know yet. Meanwhile, between dealing with the current threat, we'll get a bunch of BACKSTORY dating back to the 70s and the pre Afton CrashOut 80s plus what happens in between all the games. But that's just a...yeah, whatever. I'm just going along for the ride at this point.
my favorite Rye thing is how they keep comenting on the audio and I keep hearing the exact same thing, at this point without the "let me know what you think about the audio" I don't know if it would be a RyeToast video at all, it's endearing at this point lol
The lore stoplight thing is actually such a good idea! A really good way to stop commenters from being like "ErM aCtUAalY tHis iSnt directly COnfirmmEd"
While I still think Glitchtrap and the mimic are related but inherently separate, this is a perfect going foreward modern fnaf timeline. Absolutely knocked it out of the park with this one Rye!
Hi Riley and you guys reding the coments, I may just make this into a email but I've had a theory on what the franchise could explore next, it is already implied by the Melodies existing that there were other people trying to use animatronics most likely for entertaiment so what if after the "Mimic Era" Scott and the guys at steelwool decided to explore more parts of the FNaF universe, what if William and Henry weren't the only ones who creared animatronics, I just think that's quite fascinating.
Glitchtrap being just the mimic and NOT Afton feels like a much more satisfying story. If it's William again, it just feels like the all the fires we set were really for nothing. This interpretation still lets Ultimate Custom Night have it's emotional ending with Henry, without just throwing away Afton's defeat.
The audio sounds great, but something else I think could be tweaked is the contrast on the video output of your camera, because dark colors look fairly bright
Your story with Gregory and Co does sound plausible but that's if Gregory was not the one to drop Cassie in the elevator. Was that ever made clear? Cuz It would feel weird if Gregory was the one to drop Cassie and next present day game he goes and saves her.
Man I really wish fnaf was the type of series that actually resolved plots succinctly and seemed like it had an actual storyline goal with each game. I know Scott's talked about how everything he planned with security breach kinda got turned upside down, and IMHO that's kinda confirmation that nothing that happens from here on out is based on anything intended from the outset. Fnaf really just feels like game after game after game of damage control trying to fix the previous poorly written game or flubbed character. Sigh... It's a neat franchise but it's exhausting to think about
Yes this exactly is a problem of mine. Steelwool kind of sucks at telling stories how Scott would and then instead of just vibing with what they put out, they keep trying to go back and fix it(it does not feel to me that Ruin wrote Burntrap out but switched focus to Mimic because people were disappointed Afton was back, HW2 tried to write off Glitchtrap because they now had another villain, but created confusion about Vanny and Vanessa again).
I think that's part of what makes FNAF unique. I don't come to FNAF for story-arcs and character development like I do with other franchises, I come to FNAF for a series of events and lore and the pleasure of piecing them together. A story like FNAF is, essentially, the narrative equivalent of junk food; it's not nutritious, but it is delicious.
20:19 Would be a very interesting if instead of an adult putting dead children in animatronics, it's a child killing adults with help of an animatronic
0:29 Three, actually, but fair enough; time moves weird nowadays Also aren’t the missing kids still a major focus in the ”second arc” with MoltenMCI and all that?
I pray the mimic game is free roam I don’t mind the classic style but security breach made me prefer that style after we’ve gotten the simple first person head turn games
i haven't finished the video yet, but i have a small nitpick regarding the stoplight: i just think having green as the 3rd color and and blue as the last would look better as it makes a gradient between the lights (you could even replace the blue with cyan as it's closer to green and it pops a lot more) obviously you don't have to listen to me as i'm just nitpicking an unimportant visual choice
My only gripe with the Roxy exoskeleton suit logic is that there’s barely any part of her outer shell remaining that it’s not even enough to hide the mimic. But it is a solid theory and I got nothing more against it and fits with the characters MO, though I doubt it will even stick with the Roxy persona.
I LOVE the stoplight system, in fact I think it’s so good that it should be adopted by most if not all FNAFtubers
I'm glad!
I remember seeing it in another video by a non-FNAFtuber
its a really good idea, too bad i can't pay attention to it but i don't care that much anyway

The exact date of the carnival fire was a lunar eclipse, as hinted in HW2, which gives us a very close range of dates among 1970 and 1985, specially there was a TOTAL eclipse on FALL 1979 (SOTM year).
0:06 I really desperately want to know what takes place after security breach other than Hw2.. plus I also want to find out more about what happened to FNAF 6's ending. Because nobody said that they randomly died out, especially, Afton survived. Scrap baby is in hw2 so she supposedly survived as well.
Okay but a FNAF heist game would be absolutely fire!!!!!!!!!!
I had this stupid Idea for a game after Security Breach where Gregory and Vanessa try to get a Freddy a new body.
How they do this? They take part in a underground robot fighting ring. Where the the winning robot team can take the opponents parts to upgrade itself. So it's like a combat game where you customize Freddy with deadly weapons to fight even more deadly robots.
As silly as that sounds, FNAF _has_ always been pretty good about making each game something new and unique. I could honestly see this working, bizarrely.
@@Mega-Brick Yeah. I think it's a good thing for Fnaf to branch out and try other genres of games. Pizzeria Sims is one of my favorite because it tries something different. They don't have to abandon the horror aspect. Maybe have like one or two creepy sections that can happen at any point in the game so that it keeps people on the edge. Like what if in my Fighting game idea Freddy loses a scripted match and get thrown in a robot junkyard and has to face dismantled and creepy robots to get out of there.
I feel like a lot of times when there’s a drought season I leave the fandom and then come back wondering what’s going on lol .
First, you hook me in with my ultimate Mario Jam (Gusty Garden Galaxy) and now you've come up with a brilliant idea to show us the importance of the Lore discussed? That's what keeps me around! I love The Stoplight and I hope other Theorists take on the Idea while crediting you, of course. As for me? Good Ol' Occam's Razor Returns: The Mimic is now the main Problem that's gonna get worse and worse until someone shows up with a giant sledgehammer for the Endo and a giant magnet and a bucket of water to destroy every computer/piece of technology it's infected. WILLIAM AFTON IS FINALLY FUCKING DEAD PHYSICALLY/ GLITCHTRAP but his Legacy of Horror and Misery marches on through Vanny and god knows who else until they're Freed somehow and then they team up to get rid of Fazbear Entertainment again and keep it GONE by any means necessary. It could be another Fire or they could switch it up and use Drowning like in OMC's domain plus the Stitchwraith/Eleanor Saga in the Epilogues but we don't know yet. Meanwhile, between dealing with the current threat, we'll get a bunch of BACKSTORY dating back to the 70s and the pre Afton CrashOut 80s plus what happens in between all the games. But that's just a...yeah, whatever. I'm just going along for the ride at this point.
a heist type game sounds so freaking fun, a bit weird for fnaf but still, imagine switching between the perspectives, it'd be pretty cool
I'm always happy when you upload! ^^
Oh, it was What Comes Next. I was thinking the King George thing was going to be that, since no way it would have been I Know Him
03:13 he says as i take a swig of my sweet succulent double A orange juice
I just clocked your microphone's floating 😭🙏🏼
I am willing to bet money that Scott/SteelWool is gonna pull a way to have the Mimic defeated, but that gives way for William to somehow return
13:45 your lucky I didn’t unsubscribe because of that reference lmao…
my favorite Rye thing is how they keep comenting on the audio and I keep hearing the exact same thing, at this point without the "let me know what you think about the audio" I don't know if it would be a RyeToast video at all, it's endearing at this point lol
13:38 i AUDIBLY SCREAMED
The lore stoplight thing is actually such a good idea! A really good way to stop commenters from being like "ErM aCtUAalY tHis iSnt directly COnfirmmEd"
Audio is much better 🎉
While I still think Glitchtrap and the mimic are related but inherently separate, this is a perfect going foreward modern fnaf timeline. Absolutely knocked it out of the park with this one Rye!
Saw this, never clicked so fast in my life
Welcome in!
Do I hear... Super Mario Galaxy music in the background?? Nostalgia hit me so hard just now, I need to play that game again because it's amazing
This videos coming out on my birthday! another rye video to digest and rewatch? a birthday miracle for sure L:
Can't wait for more audiobooks!
Hi Riley and you guys reding the coments, I may just make this into a email but I've had a theory on what the franchise could explore next, it is already implied by the Melodies existing that there were other people trying to use animatronics most likely for entertaiment so what if after the "Mimic Era" Scott and the guys at steelwool decided to explore more parts of the FNaF universe, what if William and Henry weren't the only ones who creared animatronics, I just think that's quite fascinating.
Glitchtrap being just the mimic and NOT Afton feels like a much more satisfying story. If it's William again, it just feels like the all the fires we set were really for nothing. This interpretation still lets Ultimate Custom Night have it's emotional ending with Henry, without just throwing away Afton's defeat.
The audio sounds great, but something else I think could be tweaked is the contrast on the video output of your camera, because dark colors look fairly bright
Love the Hamilton reference :)
Your story with Gregory and Co does sound plausible but that's if Gregory was not the one to drop Cassie in the elevator. Was that ever made clear? Cuz It would feel weird if Gregory was the one to drop Cassie and next present day game he goes and saves her.
already subbed so that hamilton reference gets you a like
You already had a sub from me but god damn that Hamilton joke made me laugh you get a like
Man I really wish fnaf was the type of series that actually resolved plots succinctly and seemed like it had an actual storyline goal with each game. I know Scott's talked about how everything he planned with security breach kinda got turned upside down, and IMHO that's kinda confirmation that nothing that happens from here on out is based on anything intended from the outset. Fnaf really just feels like game after game after game of damage control trying to fix the previous poorly written game or flubbed character. Sigh... It's a neat franchise but it's exhausting to think about
Yes this exactly is a problem of mine. Steelwool kind of sucks at telling stories how Scott would and then instead of just vibing with what they put out, they keep trying to go back and fix it(it does not feel to me that Ruin wrote Burntrap out but switched focus to Mimic because people were disappointed Afton was back, HW2 tried to write off Glitchtrap because they now had another villain, but created confusion about Vanny and Vanessa again).
I think that's part of what makes FNAF unique. I don't come to FNAF for story-arcs and character development like I do with other franchises, I come to FNAF for a series of events and lore and the pleasure of piecing them together. A story like FNAF is, essentially, the narrative equivalent of junk food; it's not nutritious, but it is delicious.
Mimic just wants to show the class a hands on powerpoint of fnaf lore, poor thing
I love ur cat in all the videos lol he's just chilling
16:20 a one on one show with roxanne wolf
SIGN ME UP
that is such a beautiful thumbnail bro
15:49Noooooooo! No god, please no! Don't you touch her! 😡😭
i think a warmer light would blend you better into your mostly cartoony backgrounds
Audio is great👍
Unless my ears deceive me, that's Aquatic Mine as the background audio right?
Love the choice of bgm!
Rye Toast Everyday. rye toast all day.
Ryetoast using their psychic powers to hold the microphone in place midair
20:19
Would be a very interesting if instead of an adult putting dead children in animatronics, it's a child killing adults with help of an animatronic
0:29 Three, actually, but fair enough; time moves weird nowadays
Also aren’t the missing kids still a major focus in the ”second arc” with MoltenMCI and all that?
10:14
Didn't you and IDsFantasy agreed that Jeremy didn't actually cut his face off?
We've been got, we just watched a speculation video for a game that hasn't been announced. gg Rye, gg.
Audio seems perfect now.
I pray the mimic game is free roam I don’t mind the classic style but security breach made me prefer that style after we’ve gotten the simple first person head turn games
Secret of the mimic is free roam just like security breach, but in a smaller space like ruin from what we saw in the demo
i haven't finished the video yet, but i have a small nitpick regarding the stoplight: i just think having green as the 3rd color and and blue as the last would look better as it makes a gradient between the lights (you could even replace the blue with cyan as it's closer to green and it pops a lot more)
obviously you don't have to listen to me as i'm just nitpicking an unimportant visual choice
10/10 would watch again
My only gripe with the Roxy exoskeleton suit logic is that there’s barely any part of her outer shell remaining that it’s not even enough to hide the mimic. But it is a solid theory and I got nothing more against it and fits with the characters MO, though I doubt it will even stick with the Roxy persona.
I love your backround
