- Thank You everyone for sticking around for this "This Comes From Inside" Analysis Video, I promise this'll be the last one. I can only milk the Song for so long before the Copyright Claims become an issue. Anyways, I can't to see all the comments on what you guys think the meaning behind the Song is. Hopefully I'll have something more Epic prepared for next week.

• SB SONG: "This Comes From Inside" Instrumental - by The Living Tombstone
I think the difference between this community from most is that most of the bad dramas happened in one year instead of being more spread out. The community would be much better off if we had time to heal but all the punches came at once so it was much harder to move on. At least that's what I think
*cough cough* undertale *cough cough*
Same thing happened to smash in 2020 and I completely understand.
Quite the surprise seeing you here. I’m not sure anyone from the livestreams even remember me anymore lol.
@@vann.E i haven't been in his community for 6 months now lol
@@GhostlyBanes same man. I left as soon as I saw the other side. Glad you could get out as well.
I miss old FNaF. It wasn’t security breaches fault, it was ours. We chased away the man who started it all and now attack others for their opinions like it’s nothing. I hope the fandom can recover. The living tombstone is amazing for making this.
Facts
How come people pushed Scott away?
Because of his political beliefs?
@@georgewashington3918 yeah. Personally i think everyone is entitled to their own beliefs but thats the gist of what happened.
People can get angry because they may not like the thing that person did… we really all have our on beliefs either politics or religion
I just an opinion…
@vann.E it wasn't just a belief he was supporting politicians who try to pass anti lgbtq laws. Maybe ostricizing him from his community is too far but saying it was just an opinion that had no real world consequences is far from right
I miss the good old days of fnaf....
Same 😢
I miss the days where pycho freind fredbear was the most song people played when watching or play fnaf 4
same
I understand that, but you'll never be able to enjoy what lies ahead if you don't accept that things have changed. Every year of FNaF could be marked as a "different era", but it's still FNaF. We've still had the dedicated theorists, hilarious memes, and lovable games every single year, but just for something different.
@@crystalcat1002 Exactly
I joined this fandom right as SB was first announced, and I've grown to love the fandom. I don't want it to end right as new people like me are finding it...
Same
I joined when fnafsb was announced to. But I also remember everyone talking about fnaf when I was little.
Think of it like a country in its current state, compared to its largest extend. The country will live on, but it used to be bigger.
wow your new
Me too lol i was also new to the fandom
The song is also meant to represent the impact SB had on the series and the hatred the game received.
The FNAF 1 and FNAF 2 animatronics we're there to represent 2014 FNAF and it's reaction to 2022 FNAF. Also those animatronics represent the feelings of the fanbase.
The "this is your fault" line is meant to represent the fandoms hatred of security breach and how it ruin fnaf for them.
I honestly always thought this way.
@Luminous this is why the final line is "your mind" security breach is still in the FNAF franchise.
Well.... Fans do want SB to come out soon. And it did, but you know..
If they can just patient, imagine about how Security breach could have been.
@@Sonicmid *you're mine
You can also add in Gregory representing the new fans that joined from security breach
Honestly it hurts
When I saw Freddy my hurt aches it was like I wanted to cry out to him,
It makes me miss those days in 2014 where a kid like me could just enjoy fnaf watching everyday fun theories and talk to everyone at school about it the next day
Even if security breach has a huge impact on the fandom I hated how everyone hated the last game Scott released before retiring,
In my opinion the game was amazing, the story line, the voice acting everything was perfect.
Soon enough I’m buying the game to play on my PlayStation
Despite being a very OG fnaf fan, I really love security breach! And because I am a very OG fnaf fan, it absolutely breaks my heart to see my community, my home, in such disarray and conflict. It all started when the community betrayed Scott, ripped him out of the franchise and cast him out of the picture like he was nothing. Nothing happened to the person who found Scott’s political donations and selfishly told everyone. He did something very horrible, and instead of targeting the person who had sealed Scott’s fate, the community went after the man who started all of this just because of his beliefs. Ever since Scott left the picture, the community has become a war zone. I have been part of fnaf ever since the first game came out all the way back in 2014. This community was my home, and I just want my community back. I’m sick of all the fighting. I’m sick of all the hate. I’m done with that. I just want my community to go back to the way it was. Back to 2014. It’s funny how as you grow up, you learn that the world isn’t just sunshine and rainbows, but a very horrific and terrifying place. I feel like that has happened to the fnaf community. We started out young, only bonded by our love for a small indie game that we thought was just going to end or fall into the abyss sometime soon. Then, as we grew, we expanded, and became a bigger community than anyone ever thought we could be. And now, that means nothing to anyone. Now all that everyone does in this community is find ways to start controversy and give death threats to anyone who disagrees with them. I was only 6 years old when the first fnaf game came out, and I remember as clear as day. Now I am 14 years old and next year I am going into high school. I don’t want to be that guy, but I consider myself to be a true fnaf fan. I bet that there are other true fnaf fans out there other than me. True fnaf fans who have been along for the ride ever since the first game was released, like me. I am so disappointed with the state of the fnaf community. We have fallen, but we can rise again. We can get our respect back. Our community back.
Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this. I truly think we can get our community back, and our home back, and restore them to their rightful glory. Thank you.
This comes from inside……..
Thank YOU for saying this, been around about as long and I feel the same way.
A 14 year old made more sense and is more mature than most of the community
so well said i agree so much
I agree, I’ve been around about the same time and feel the same way. Now everything’s a problem
I agree, it's a shame how the FNAF community has changed, everyone is fighting against each other. I wish to be in the older times, where the FNAF community created goofy FNAF animations together, laughed together, had fun together, because they all had the same similarity, the love for FNAF.
It kinda make sense when you consider the title.
"This comes from inside"
Or this originates from the community (on the inside)
Where Scott and Steel Wool are on the outside.
I was just watching this and daydream this being what fnaf sb was like but regardless i do like this community even if others try to ruin it for me i know this franchise will always be my favorite game
After all were no different then other community’s they have their own problems and we have to fix ours I just hope all is forgiven we move on and make the game we love and I hope to see your theories mr shadow bonnie you are a great theorists and hope to see you do more fnaf theories until time takes us all away
I hope to get back to making some epic theories some time soon!
If it wasn’t for FNaF I would’ve met all my amazing friends! FNaF plays a big part in my life. No matter what happens I’ll always love Five Nights At Freddy’s
Thank you for doing this explanation, tbh there are moments where I wish I could travel back to the good old days of fnaf,
But as the old saying goes you gotta take the good with the bad.
The sadest part is, this happens to all fanbases eventually. Undertale had it, sonic had it (probably one of the longest too), even the fnaf fangames had it.
The problem is, the toxicity is usually from a smaller part of the fanbase; they're just so much more louder that it drowns out all the other people that care about it and share opinions with respect.
Like a crowd of people having fun at an expo and then 4 ppl with megaphones start screaming over everyone claiming to be a bigger fan than them.
I’d like to imagine the scars we can’t quantify as Scott’s donations. People jumped to conclusions when we didn’t know why he donated to those specific people in the first place
Yeah that was the whole reason he was canceled.
People leaked his donations for republicans parties. (I think it was republican parties don’t remember.)
Of course everyone did the stupid thing and jumped to the conclusion he was actively supporting trump and yeah I don’t wanna go down that
We can all go on and on and on about the absurdity (and stupidity) of the reasons he was cancelled and later retired for but I don’t think this would be a place to even mention it.
@@beartheconfused6798 it was to the Republican Party, multiple political candidates within it (including Trump), and the policies they pushed forth and supported (anti-LGBTQ+ laws)
yeah im still so confused as to why people still blame some random person for leaking the info, scott had made incredibly large donations to right wing politicians who push for laws and bills that lead to death discrimination and poverty, and when people said something about it scott left. he was giving money to people who actively push for policy that harms people and then acted like his entire existence was yeeted into the void by almighty cancel culture when people got upset.
@@ZazzelTheGamer Supporting any politician really comes with downsides that a lot of people will not agree with. It’s impossible to please everybody. Even then, Scott didn’t donate for any reason we would consider bad, and even then, he has donated to people in the Democratic Party before they were either no longer candidates or did things that got them in hot water
@@awesomust Of course you don't get my point and not answer it.
If a politician said he would kill your family, but lower prices at Walmart to free for only you, would you. Yes or fking no. Answer the damn question.
I took it as the animatronics talking to afton, with lines like “your reason to justify scars you can’t quantify” as his reasons to kill the kids caused pain he couldn’t even imagine
The whole part from the original gang was them talking directly to afton “it’s all your fault” “ur losing it all” “were waiting for you every night”
And in the beginning “this comes from inside” there pain being vocalized “how long do we have to try” there continual suffering
“It will stay there until you die” there souls can’t rest until he’s gone
Same except this comes from inside sounded like the blob and one of the animatronics inside talking. Idk something like that
Actually, that makes sense when you see that the characters are singing to Gregory which is the character that _the player_ plays
FNAF will always be one of my favorite franchises despite the state of the community
I’ve never really thought about it this way. However, while I do still think that this song is supposed to be a sort of message from the _Five Nights at Freddy’s_ franchise to the _FNaF_ community, but I also think that the lyrics have a double meaning. I think that it’s also supposed to be the spirits of the deceased children talking to William Afton:
“Long time ago it was all for a show [William and Henry Emily created the original animatronics, Fredbear and Springbonnie, to put on a show for children];…”
“…fill our wounds with a pound of salt [William rubbed salt into their wounds by making the children’s situation even worse after killing them: he stuffed their corpses into animatronic suits, trapping their spirits]!”
”And your reason to justify scars you can’t quantify lock us inside a vault [Willam tried to justify the scars that he inflicted upon the children by having a “good reason” to murder them. This, regardless of his “justification”, locked the children inside of a vault (“vault” being the animatronic endoskeletons), trapping their spirits]!”
“Now this is your fault! Everything is a problem [everything that has happened is because of William. Now, everything is a problem]!”
“There was a poison in the air, despair is an eternal blight [there was a feeling of poison in the air on those days when William killed those children]!”
“You’re losing it all! You’ve been blinded by stardom [William was blinded by the stardom that he had earned from the popularity of Fazbear Entertainment, making him think he could get away with the things he was doing without consequences, and now he’s losing it everything]!”
“You think that you’re alone, but we are waiting for you every night! You’re mine [this line is the animatronics talking to William, letting him know that they are going to be there to haunt him for his sins every night, and that his soul belongs to them now (this could also possibly be a reference to _Ultimate Custom Night,_ but I’m not exactly sure)]!”
I apologize that this was such a long comment, but I really just wanted to share all of my thoughts and interpretations. Thanks for reading!
"But hey that's just a theory A COMMENT THEORY thanks for reading"
Toxicity and drama are why I hate people like Theft King. He only cares about himself. This community would be better of without bad actors like him
But we also have to be responsible for our own actions. Despite our creativity and passion, we are often our own worst enemies.
This song has done something that no other Fnaf song like it has: made me reflect on this community as a whole. I was only really a fan around SL, I was never here for nearly as long as others.
But at the end of the day, this series, and this community are what saved me from spiralling into depression and suicide. Because of this community’s existence, I’m able to even conceptualise fan games and other projects.
I don’t want this to be our last performance, I won’t stand for it.
Im not a theft king supporter but I'm still confused why people are hating on him still
@@whitespace226 Mostly because he’s a fully grown man who has a continuous streak of excusing his bad behaviour instead of truly apologising. Even his “apology” video is at most 3 minutes and neglects a LOT of stuff in private.
Some advice:
Mental health explains a person’s actions, it does not excuse them.
@@orisfamaemon oh that's why
Dude theft king is a person like us all. I bet you have made a mistake in your life. We can irrational sometimes and regret it later. You have to talk with your actions which is what theft has been doing recently. It is inhumane to cancel people on the internet. It is literally destroying a person over human error. If someone is the perfect person you know then they aren’t human.
Uhyeah is now replacing theftking as the fnaf hater, come on man...
this song did make me fell emotions i can not describe , it made me think "what happened ? why did we come so far like this ?" another song that i could relate with the ostricising of Scott is DAGame's "I will not be moved" wich came out years ago , wich for me just embodies the rage of those who were on Scott's side and saw him retire because some twitter degenerates got butthurt from something that was supposed to be personal data
When fandoms start getting big, it’s inevitable for toxicity to spread like wildfire. I’ve been a fan since the first game and seeing it all happen where it is now is sad but we did this ourselves. This song really hit home and just wish it was back to where it was for everyone. I still enjoy the game and franchise a lot but it just has a bittersweet feeling when you realize the problems. Amazing song and thanks for explaining :)
Great video! I honestly miss the days of Fnaf where everything just was great.
I miss some of the old days of fnaf where there was less toxicity in the community and all the songs that came out back then and all of the crazy, theory's and hoaxes and stuff
Man I miss that too. Back then the biggest drama thing was just some guy milking the games for views
@@Kromer__ yea
Haha to be fair fnaf was always pretty toxic though
WOW. This is a really good analysis. Listened to this song so many times and was confused what it meant. Thanks for helping me understand. :)
I feel like the line "lock us inside a vault" Is more of just an allegorical statement. When sb first came out and new fans started joining the fandom, older fans started gatekeeping the old games, locking them away from the newer fans. I feel like tlt is most likely speaking directly to the fandom through this song and that line feels directed to the people who quite literally wanted the old games locked away from the newer fans. And with this song telling the fandom that every part of it is destroying the games, the fun from inside; Tlt with this lyric is telling the old fans, using the old characters who judge us, to let the games out. Let them be free so people can enjoy it. Let new players play the old games in order to keep this fandom alive. The breakdowns of many fandoms have been caused the same way and if we are to keep this fandom afloat, we must let new people in.
Yeah, I've seen a lot of older fans getting mad at the fact that the newer fans are younger as if we didn't discover FNAF at a similar age. Older fans insulting newer fans by saying they're all crybabies and shit. I'm an OG fan and I'm fine with the newer fans being young since we were too.
Wow. AMazing analysis video.
The community needs to pull itself together. And I hope it will. We can be better than this!
i don’t like to be the crotchety old “back in my day” fnaf fan, but god the overwhelming negativity in the modern fandom is so exhausting. there are plenty of good faith critiques to be leveled towards the series, and i think criticizing things you love is important (see my exhaustive review of tfc lol) but there’s just as much unnecessary vitriol and sheer negativity held toward the games now it makes you wonder why these people even stick around. in ye olden times the fandom was definitely kinda cringey, but it was fun and everyone was enjoying themself. now it’s just a bunch of bitter people on twitter grumbling about how the bear game isn’t how they want it to be
I miss the days of 2017/2018 when the fandom talked and made theories for fnaf 6 and ucn that was for me the best era.
In my opinion the best era of the fandom was sometime before the release of Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location, when everyone was genuinely anticipating the new game, and everyone was going crazy and making theories with the teaser and were looking at the source code and stuff like that, it was so fun seeing all the things that the fandom had to say.
@@ShrimChami It was also the best one for me because of how people used matpat's lores and started making sfms and even series on fnaf. Some even went on to ship the animatronics and truth or dare series. Fnaf was popular everywhere
I still think it's surprising how those documents that originated Scott's cancelation weren't supposed to be public, also that even the graph showed crucial numbers that most people ignored
Twitter just loves canceling people for the dumbest reasons
I could say I left after Sister Location and being a 2014 original FNaF fan, but I thought about it a little after seeing this video. Even though I looked down on the franchise as a whole because of the community (and it was weird back then, but not THIS bad) and where the games seemed to be heading, I still checked in every once in a great, LONG while. I didn't care much about the games after I left but I still cared enough to check in. No matter who you are as a fan, one thing is for sure, as the song says; "YOU'RE MINE". You and me still belong to the franchise deep down. It was once a part of you and a part of what you enjoyed. Always remember that and remember what Scott did. Remember what this game did and look fondly upon it and your memories.
I love how you made the duration of the video the exact duration of the song start to finish.
“Now this is your FAULT”
“Everything is a PROBLEM”
Me: 😢
It's such an interesting take. I was thinking on it a while back, probably a few months ago when I was thinking on shadow bonnie,I wanted an alternative explanation to agony because this was now the community accepted lore. I saw your old video and enjoyed it. All I could hear was agony MCI85 Due to fazbear frights.
Then after years of watching fighting in the community, the new book confirms MCI83 and all those years of blind belief and fighting was for nothing. Yet agony is
Still used to explain the shadows
Any event we don't understand
The blob
Afton being alive
Eleanor
You pointed out,shadow bonnie was in the follow me minigame behind the wall before Afton got spring locked.
There's no debate anymore,combining ideas together to work things out, nobody ask "what if the agony thing was wrong" without backlash.
Yes there are parts of this that are steel wools fault, how they handled both vanny and burntrap was embarrassing,and some endings cut off before you even had time to process what you just saw. The fun of exploring the pizzaplex with wonder and finding interesting things was replaced with bots hindering your every move and fear to find a save port just so you didn't need to do the same thing over and over. And obviously when the fear is finding a save port rather than the actual animatronics in the game, that's a huge problem.
These issues are not the fanbase fault, and the biggest thing steel wool did that damaged the community, was the trailers.
The trailers are always the best starting point to theories. We watched them, found things peice by peice.
"When I first found you ,you were nothing" fanbase exited Afton is back, sounds incredible "Gregory please come out, I'm sorry I lost my temper earlier,it was a glitch" fanbase hyped for vanny,it's going to be amazing "you will bring me what I want and if you fail me you will both of you burn" fanbase hyped for facing this ...
Then the game has none of it, all the theorys, the trailer had us with, gone, 3 trailers that meant nothing.
So although I agree the community is split, and changes can happen like MCI85 to MCI83 and agony could change.
It was what was in the security breach trailers but yet was not in the game, the fear of finding a save file over the atmosphere of the game,and the handling of the most hyped up villian vanny, that really fractured the community.
I’m gonna cry… I remember joining the fnaf community in 2015 and I wish we still had those days… now everyone expects the movies and games to be on top and if it don’t go the way they want they hate it. I remember when no one cared about the looks of the game as long as there was one. There was no arguing there was no hate, it was peaceful. It’s going to end up being too much for whoever’s in charge next and one day they are just going to quit making Fnaf games/ movies. Then everyone will regret it. Im not saying it’s everyone just some people. You should be great full for what your getting because one day it may be gone. And it might be because of you…
Perfect summary! Love what you did with the video!
As a person who never took part of criticizing other people or criticizing the creator of fnaf, it is sad that a fandom I loved so much and still do love this fandom a lot turned into this
I’m an OG FNAF fan hearing this give me flashbacks of being jumpscare from the old games lol
omg this hit me hard. idk why but i.. this made me tier up. when you said its easy to feel quit alone in this community. i do feel that way recently I've been really indulged in fnaf and im going to start playing fnaf on my yt channel just for my own enjoyment not to be cringe i feel a little alone and making fnaf yt vids will make me feel good thank you for making this video this made me stop and think so far almost every single day ive been listening to this song alot this song really hits me some where and i just couldn't explain to my self why i kept thinking there's a message in this song you helped me figure it out thank you agein for this video. have an awesome day thank you mate even though this video was made a 11 months ago im soo glad i came across this :)
This is a really good video! I love the avatar you have
you just earned a subscriber =)
nice vid btw really hit me in emotions, keep up the great work :D
I was maybe 6 years old (Idk how old I was) when Scott left. I had no Idea what was happening to the franchise I love. I ran into my mom's room and said "He left". I was crying she had no Idea what I was going on about. To this day I still have a hatred for what Scott had to put up with . But I believe in change so I'm sure we can all do better.
That song really did take me back and make me feel like a kid again. The most beautiful feeling, glad I watched that Cory gameplay back then.
“How we could known,
That we’ve stuck in a system?”.
I think that represents that the community has spiraled into a system where we are liking the newer games and forgetting the past
I've stayed in the fandom ever since the begining, and even with the drama, I waited for it to settle, and enjoy what I loved, and still love the most. This fandom has gone through more than any. Props to Scott, that man handled everything with pride. My favorite person in the world👍
Fnaf make feel so happy it can't be over it well never be over
This is why the song made me cry the first time I heard it, I realized what it meant..
I love how this isn’t just representative of fnaf consciously or not but early TH-cam as well.
I’ve always loved Five Nights at Freddy’s, and it’s been wonderful being in this community for so long. While listening to this comes from inside I felt like it meant more, not just the story of the game but a reflection of real life, I wish everyone the best, and I’m so happy to be in this community, and thank you Scott, for everything
Amazing video again mate❤️
This comes from inside gamplay:🙂
This comes from inside lore:☻
After all the things that Scott had done for us. . . We drove him away. It's the sad truth, but he'll always hold a special place in our hearts.
I miss how the community was. I miss how everything was. FNAF is going to be in my heart forever, it doesn't matter.
I think the fandom really went down hill when we stopped acknowledging the beauty and uniqueness of the FNAF games and franchise, and focused instead on the drama involving Scott as well as other fandom members. The FNAF fandom inspired so many people to create their own horror stories, characters, and even video games. The Five Nights At Freddy’s games ignited many peoples’ passion to draw. I started my career as an artist drawing FNAF characters. There was so much good that came from the FNAF franchise, but the fandom made it toxic. Many people who were inspired by FNAF and created their own characters, video games, etc. received harassment by other members of the fandom for what they made. It seems like a large part of the fandom has forgotten the true appeal of FNAF that made it great. I hate that SB got such a bad rap, as I find it to be a really beautiful and enticing game that explored the darker parts of Fazbear Entertainment Co. This Comes From Inside does a perfect job of highlighting the problems of this fandom, while also reminding FNAF fans that the old days are not yet lost. Both the song and the Five Nights at Freddy’s franchise are masterpieces.
I myself for a wile din't like SB because of how it seemed like it made the sacrifices of the old characters empty, but ever since I learned about the mimic I now see it in a better light
I know there are still good people in this community, they’re just buried deep beneath that layer of negativity
They are DEEP INSIDE
We wish we could turn back time to the good old days🐻🎤🐥🍕🐰🎸🐶
We forgot to mention that fnaf 1 and fnaf 2 characters meant a deeper meaning as well. Since before fnaf 3, everybody agreed, everybody was happy. And then people got separated when fnaf 3 was released
im happy to say fnaf has been a part of my childhood turning 18 next year and have never not loved this franchise
Great video!!
(I need hints for the enterance to your sever)
_I Remember how big the Community was on Google+ (an app that got deleted), The Good Old Days_
I wish the FNAF community wasn’t dramatic about everything nowadays. We went from being careless to being triggered about the slightest thing. The toxicity isn’t something Scott would like, I guarantee it. We don’t want to become the next Friday Night Funkin fandom.
even though it's been a couple of years now, it still hurts knowing scott's gone.
I honestly can't and won't leave FNAF just because some people think that it has become only a way to make money. It's been something I've been obsessed with since I was really really young, and as years passed and new games kept coming out, I've always been so happy. I don't really know why, but I've never felt in any way that all of this games coming out were just a way to make money. New games for me just meant new content to create anything It makes me happy out for, like cosplays or drawings or just studying and analyzing the story because that's just simply how I like it.
Amazing video ^^
I'm still quite new to the fnaf (acually came upon it only some months before security breach came out), so I sadly wasn't able to be part of fnafs golden time.
But still... I really love it and hope the fandom will stick together, like it has done in the past (:
I think one of reasons is this whole debate on William Afton and fnaf lore. It's like one big argument where no one is right. We look for answers instead giving all those characters a new story, new life. They are waiting to be used again.
I taught it was just a cool song that inflicts nostalgia towards us i always taught when freddy said "long time ago it was all for a show" i always taught he was reffering to them being normal animatronics until william murdered the children and possessed the bots but now i got the true meaning when i looked deeper
At that part at the end with all the old animatronics i got a wave of nostalgia
This is simple, quick, and very true, nothing else. Thank you for helping spread the meaning
It was not Scott’s fault but I hope we can fix it as a community we all love fnaf and we need to be united not divided
I still can’t believe Scott retired
Long time ago it was all for a show
Fill our wounds with a pound of salt
And your reason to justify scars you can’t quantify
Lock us inside a vault
Now this is your fault
Everything is a problem
There was a poison in the air
despair is an eternal blight
You’re losing it all
You’ve been blinded by stardom
You think that you’re alone but
we are waiting for you every night
You’re mine
You honestly described the deeper meaning perfectly. The way TLT added in the FNAF 1 and 2 animatronics was just an amazing idea to show their reaction towards the fandom then and now. I must say the fan base has really changed over the years from being excited and happy for a new game that is enjoyable, to the hatred of security breach and the creator himself, Scott Cawthon. As we all remember, the 2014-2015/16 days were probably the best. “Don’t be sad because it’s over, be happy that it happened.”
Having been part of FNaF since 2015 when I was at least 11, and seeing how FNaF has been through the years, FNaF has truly changed. I do miss the golden years of this franchise
I loved the music because it gave me memories of the past fnaf games. but now knowing what it means. it made me love the song even more.
You make me realize so much, thank you. I've been a og fan and i was really disappointed in the fanbase due to the amount of events and stuff that happened, at a point that I completely abandon the game itself because of that. Fnaf is not my favortie franchise now, I've very good memories of it, but i still follow sometimes its progress and even fan games, because after all, it's a part of me, of us.
Your channel’s come a long way. Awesome work! Keep it up!
Aint no way this video has just barely reached 50k in 9 months... It should've had more
I do miss and would love the old times of Fnaf, I did quit the fandom after pizza sim, a game and fandom I had been on about since 2014.. Im back now but, damn.
I love fnaf 1 its my favorite when i heard the song i thought it was gonna end and everything is over and we all like fnaf within us
Thank you for explaining it so well. Five nights at Freddy’s is history that has been made and we were all able to grow along with it and watch it become what the franchise is today.
I’m glad I was able to play these games and find the hidden meaning within them, so thank you and thank you Scott
fnaf is quite literally, love and life..
Can people...like not have there opinion?- People like what they like and theres no way to stop that! So lets not bully people for that :)
Despite how complicated fnaf security breach is, Fnaf is still fnaf, Dawko is still here as well as Markiplier and Matpat and they are honestly the tractor beam for fnaf to continue, If people still talk about fnaf then It is still alive and still a mysterious game.
TBH If aliens came to earth Id show them Fnaf lore and see if they have their own version of fnaf
This brings a tear to me eye!
😭
When I was about 6 or so i had a nightmare: I woke up from my bed and was thirsty, so I opened the door and the first thing I saw was nightmare Foxy, he immediately grabbed me using his hook and dragged me far away into a hallway. You think that this dream would make me horrified of these games, but no, I was intrigued, I needed to know more, and that was the beginning of me and FNaF, nowadays that sense of horror, mystery, and wonder is gone. Maybe it's cuz I've grown up but even at my age I can still be scared, maybe FNaF security breach wasn't made for old fans, maybe it was made for new fans. It just breaks my heart to see the community so broken and divided, maybe we need a nightmare or two to remind us what this series is about.
When you came expecting deep FNaF lore and got something even deeper. 🥺
we became fnaf's true villain, keeping the souls from resting
instead of saying "no, we don't want more, we don't NEED more", we wanted more and more, we theorized more and more to a level where it's just crazy shots to say it's all a theory and finally solve this history
we kept these souls alive to a point that there's no need for them to be here, we became just like the monster who locked these children in their robotics shells
This video is so great.
I don't know what this song is alluding to the true point or purpose or even if it fits that purpose well enough.
What I can say is that from my experience of the games ever since the first Mat Pat Theory and watching Mark.
Which is about as far back as I go.
I think what happened to this fandom besides Scotts donations and the political nature of where things went was simply more people joining and situations creating more toxcitiy.
Every community gets a little toxic or has that toxic air Toxicity exists everywhere possibly within everyone I think what happened to the series or the community was that they started realizing some of the toxicity and let situations like Scotts thing amplify it and let it take over the twitter showing after Scotts thing with the Thank you scott shows that most of the real FANS never cared at all they would understand the true picture or just believe in this franchise.
The power of a Vocal minority is powerful.
I mean just look at my Ski-
I'm not going to say that even though I think it's a fitting example possibly it's too controversial to finish that sentence.
Sometimes when you treat the vocal minority as the majority or the strong force is when such problems happen.
I was back in the fandom given the release of FNAF security breach, then due to the fandom, some rather explicit fanarts (also videos, so much so that I found myself the TH-cam home full of 18+ FNAF videos)
Then I came back and as far as I can see nothing has changed
I wish we could go back time when Scott was still here but even after he left the games will always have fnaf in a minds
The after party of good old fnaf ;)
See I get where your coming from but I feel the song I more a discussion with the first part, in the comic book style, being the devs talking to the fans, and the 3D animation focused second part is fans talking back.
“There was a pre existing dictum programmed to do nothing else” and “how could we feel so alone when we share so much wisdom” both sound like the delves being stuck in a loop of trying to live up to expectations, and also them feeling cut off from the fans even though they know the full lore.
“Now this is your fault”, “you’ve been blinded by stardom”, “your reason to justify scars you can’t quantify” are the fans criticizing the devs for the lack of care and the over all “scars”, aka glitches, that littered and ruined security breach for new and old fans alike.
I’d also like to point out that the fans and the devs being represented by Gregory, a child, is also a fitting way to portray both sides. For the devs have been making the fnaf games for kids more and more, thus they view the fandom as metaphorical children who don’t know what they want and are just throwing a tantrum, when the devs are represented by Gregory it is because the devs are the newest arrivals to the fandom only being picked up recently and are turning a once beloved series into just another cash cow with marketable plushes, action figures and apps for mommy’s phone.
if there's something anyone needs to know its that nothing ever lasts forever
A man just chose based on his mindset, and then the ones that loved FNaF took it as a personal attack and made him leave. So many good memories and now we are here, stuck with people that say "don't spread hate" as they destroy anything that they don't see as "on their side"
I feel ya man…
That was deep
...it makes sense..more than some people may understand...
This explenation of the song sounds accutate enough to me, though i personally always thought it was about how the game series became ever since scott retired, like how the new company felt "blinded by stardom" and changed far too much the game as we know it, going from an 80's horror to a futuristic sci-fi thing, (starting from fnaf vr with glitchtrap somehow being metaverse william afton, which ???? oke i guess lmao)
It sorta felt like veterans commenting how they felt about the new fnaf games by the new company or sumn.
This aside, I personally don't mind that, i think fnaf truly ended with fnaf pizzeria simulator, everything from there on feels detached from the lore so i consider it a sequel that can not be possibly be compared with the prequel due to its diversity.
I know this song refers to the community, but I would also like to think that the animatronics are talking to Afton, not Gregory. Poor kid did nothing, but William caused this whole fiasco
I Never knew just a simple song had so much meaning..
But now it makes so much sense..
