You can hate Scott all you want and disagree with his beliefs but never send death threats to his family nor doxxing his home address. If that were happened to you then you would also beg for people to stop as well and it'll be the same thing anyway. Don't put yourselves on pedestals while we're all here standing on the same ground.
Goddamn, a statement like this couldn’t have of been any more truer! “Don’t put yourselves on pedestals while we’re all here standing on the same ground”. I like that, that’s a lot of common sense right there!
I'm kinda chuckling after this comment, but then I am thinking of the death threats Scott got, and connected it to "you ended the story, by killing the story teller" then I am like "oh my gosh"
My heart is broken as well. I always feared the day Scott leaves us and it's hard to process it happened. He really is a good man. Time heals all wounds but there's always going to be a hole in my heart where he used to be.
7 years of FNaF Im actually glad Scott retired Not because Scott donated to a Guy that some People dont like Its because Scott wants to protect his family I already knew that some day Scott would retire Thank you Scott For making our childhoods.
Seeing Dawko teary and knowing that people have wrote hate messages towards him before he even said anything makes me cry. Why do people have to be like this?
Some people are just so closed off to any other way of thinking. And they’ll teach their kids to do that too. That’s why we need good people to teach them in class or in a book or movie or video or anything else about new perspectives.
it's so tiring, so so tiring, how can people write a threat or a hate message and be proud of themselves to send that message to people that DON'T deserve them
It does suck. But huge respect to Scott, and much much love to him and his family. I and many others will never forget what he’s done over these last 7 years. He’s changed lives and made some people who they are today. Thank you Scott.
Let this madlad rest, he has done a lot for the past 7 years. He created one of the fandom that I first joined and cherish. I hope him and his family is alright with the stuff happening recently.
the problem isn't his opinions, it's that he donated thousands of dollars to horrible people and campaigns. death threats are never tolerable but i just can't like someone who's aware of that and still donating
@@lukero818 Actually it literally is his opinions. Who are you to say the other side is less horrible? I'd love to know one actual thing one of the candidates he donated to has done that actually warrants this insane level of whining. Actually ridiculous the level of gaslighting against Scott, we live in a democracy for fuck's sake.
@@calebkernaghan2369 dawg i don't hate him for his opinions, i hate him for his actions. you can look up the political figures you aren't a baby who needs things explained to you
@@lukero818 And his actions are a direct evolution of his opinions? He put his money where his mouth is. And I kinda do need things explained because I'm not an American and can't be fucked to waste my time delving into some pointless twitter drama.
I hope Scott rests well for all the great games he's brought us. 💜 And I absolutely agree with what you said in this video, I wish people would be more understanding.
It's very painful to see Scott had to retire...but I understand why, he needs to spend time with his family, he has 6 children and his wife is pregnant..so yeah...he's still a Chad Dev
the thing about Dawko is that he’s one of the best people in this broken world. he cares so much about his passions and doesn’t let anyone turn him away from what he wants. 👑 you dropped this, king
Old man consequences: let the demon fight their demons. Very fitting. Because honestly people who very political today are attacking each other and good people all the time. Twitter is just one big example of it.
Doesn't matter what his personal beliefs are, you never send death threats to people. I don't understand why people can't just disregard a creator's personal beliefs and enjoy the content they create for the reason they make it. Love the artist for the art.
Yeah, like, if you’re gonna send death threats to anyone, you should send them to… Don’t send them to anyone, not even cancel culture, because death threats are disgusting.
@@GasolineLicker only send them to the horrible people like the legit killers or pedos not a guy who was on a different POLITICAL side nothing to do with race and sexuality.even if he WAS homophobic we should've KNOWN this since he's Christian.
@@xinderx Honestly even then, we are in no position to send death threats. Ever. Even if it's the worst possible human being, nobody deserved getting doxxed and what happened to Scott.
After learning scott is retiring, all i can imagine is matpat standing in the rain without his main rival Anyway thank you scott for giving us 8 years of fnaf you truly deserve this retirement
I know this is a solemn moment, but I just thought of a meme/joke about the situation. Matpat: So, what is the plot of Security Breach? Scott: Good question.
“I have always loved, and will continue to love, this community and this fanbase, even if someday it doesn’t include me anymore.” Step 1: Lay down Step 2: Try not to cry Step 3: Cry a lot
The issue with politics here in America is that it’s very black and white with people. There’s no room for nuance, there’s no room for moderation. People keep voting for the same parties, and the same problems keep coming up. If you identify as Republican, it’s always assumed that you’re religious, anti-lgbtq+, and pro military. But the reality is that someone might vote Republican simply for the fact that they support the military and nothing else. People don’t see that. If you identify as Democrat, it’s assumed that you’re pro-choice, anti-gun, and probably not religious. But someone could be voting simply for the fact that they are pro-choice but still like Guns and subscribe to a mainline religion. But people don’t see that. I think Scott got caught up in that dynamic. I mean think about it. Why would he try to hurt the people he makes games for? Many politicians stand for many different things, and sometimes politicians that I don’t always agree with, hell even if I hate them, make good points about certain things.
This is very well said. I think that political opinions shouldn't be your only defining factor. I had a friend that I knew for a very long time but as soon as he found out we had different political opinions, he blocked me on all social media platforms and we are no longer in contact. Even just expressing opinions can change people's entire view of you even if they don't have opposing opinions, often causing unneeded arguments. I've learned not to share most controversial opinions because it can make even the best of friends think differently. If someone is that arrogant that they will block you for one small difference in opinion, they don't deserve to be your friend and similar things are happening in this community for the same reasons. They don't agree with Scott's opinion. The angry group of people have the right to be as angry as they want, they can even stop buying the games but I think they should stop attacking him and accept that they can't change the fact that it happened. Scott has the right to his own opinion and although it's unfortunate that he is leaving, it's good that he is separating the controversy from the games so that people who now hate him can still enjoy and have fun with the games. (I know that I jumped around a bit but I hope you got my point.)
@@supergreennarwhal2295 exactly! Your input made sense so no worries there. I agree with the idea that politics shouldn’t be a defining characteristic at all for someone, let alone their personalities. That’s why I choose to stay moderate on most things, it’s just easier and makes more sense the more you think about it. Because, like I said at the end of my original comment, you might end up agreeing more with someone on a different side of the political spectrum if you give them enough time to actually explain their position :)
lmao the FNaF 3 song goes to the entirety of twittcrap as a whole, there are 2gender and you cant swap to another go cry about it twittcrap users, luckily they are only a tiny loud minority and echochamber that nobody listens to or cares about, they can keep it up though the rest of the internet and globe will be laughing at their idiocy, it is indisputable proof that twitter, its users, and company suck and should be banned everywhere
What is worse is that a lot of people against Scott will voluntarily come forward and speak out their hate on him, they're most likely on this comment section besides being everywhere on twitter
"Leave the demon to his demons. Rest your own soul. There is nothing else." -Old Man Consequences We will always cherish the memories you have given us, thank you Scott
It’s 2023 and everything Dawko said aged extremely well and if I’m going to be honest, I don’t care about your politics, all that matters is how you treat others.
Indeed I feel like people are trying to punish other people for being themselves It feels disappointing to see that people tried to send LITTERAL DEATH THREATS to Scott because he had an opinion It's just sad to see
@@eow4317well there are some limitations such as what you just described. But things such as what Scott believes it’s OK to believe in and that doesn’t necessarily make him or you a bad person
The words "see you on the flipside" really got me, Fnaf was always something I loved from the beginning and I was there when fnaf 1 first released. Seeing Scott retire like this feels weird but I understand his reasoning.
@Winter e dai? e dai é q ele ta fazendo mendigagem num assunto sério o topico do video é sobre fnaf e o scott e ele ta falando do core aff mds o povo n pode parar de mendigar nunca pq
Scott donated millions for charities; no one cared about it Scott donated a (relatively) small amount of money to politicians; people tried to crucify him
Hey there. You know, the weirdest thing has happened to me. There was a comment to this video that had about 1.2k likes and about 15 replies, about a couple of hours ago. I left a comment there and now I can't find it anymore, the original comment, which is something I have never seen before. It was a pretty long comment too and I can only imagine that the person who posted it had it removed. If that is the case then it's fine, because I can probably rewrite it close to the original. If the original comment is still out there then I'm sorry for the repost and for what I'm about to say. For if the person in question did delete the comment after I replied, then you are the biggest coward I have ever seen on the internet and I hope it works well for you in the future. The comment in question was the quote: "We're still your friends; Do you believe that?". Even though I've not followed the development of this community for some time, I was there when the first game came out and Game Theory was combing it for all the lore. And so I replied to the person who wrote the quote that, after looking through the comments section of this video, my conclusion was that the answer is no. There has never been a game developer more loved by his community than Scott. I understand that the games will continue to come out, but make no mistake, Scott is FNaF. Never before has a gaming community given so much back to a developer for all his love and consideration for them, for the fact that he's kept in close contact with them through all the years since it began. And it was never even a question of whether someone would be accepted into the community's fold, regardless of reason. So why is it that, when he is going through all of this, the community is not there for him? Because he's made one mistake? Then why not have him explain why he did it, what he was thinking or what he believed he was doing? And if his reasoning is not sound enough, then have him apologize to his community and promise to be more careful in the future. What about all of the good deeds he has done in the past? Would anybody care to enumerate all of them? How many people are with us today, because of the community that he has created? Instead, many people seem to be content with just sending him on his merry way, while saying: "Thank you for everything Scott, we love you but you're on your own with this one!". Do you really believe that he has chosen this outcome because he was not spending enough time with his family? The people responsible for this are part of a cult which operates the same everywhere. They are not affiliated with the groups they claim to, because they only seek to destroy. Show me a game that they've created (or like for that matter) that has a community like this one. Show me a book they've written, a painting they've painted, music they've composed, statues, buildings, anything! It's very easy to destroy, but almost impossible to create and because they can't do it, then nobody should be allowed to even try. And make no mistake Dawko, if you don't stand up for your friends, then you will be alone when they come for you, because everybody is guilty of something they have or have not done in their eyes. Except for them of course, the perfect ones. I understand that Scott is very scared and troubled by all the recent events, and that he needs some time away from everything. This decision was, maybe at gun point, forced upon him but it is not what he wants to do. The community should be there for him and to welcome him back when he is ready to return, instead of wishing him a: "Happy retirement!" and breathing a sigh of relief upon finding out that the games will still come out. If FNaF has meant something to you, then this is the time to be courageous. Maybe we can still answer yes to that quote.
@@b0gdyb0ta The trouble with that is there is no "mistake" here. There is no "gun point" to be held at to make the political decision to support specific politician's. While the sentiment behind that post is valid, the fact of the matter is that there is no apology or explanation owed for participating in American politics. It's our right as American citizens, and it's disturbing how few want to accept that.
@@Fangzaprika I know there is no mistake, but his detractors tried to confuse everybody. So it was important for him to clear the waters, which he did. You are absolutely right and by his "decision made at gun point", I was referring to him having to step away from his work and community, which was the whole point of this scandal to begin with, regardless of anything else.
Not gonna lie, almost started tearing up while watching this. Scott didn't deserve any of those death threats, if anything nobody deserves to be sent death threats no matter how bad the situation is. It's concerning that people would even think about sending stuff like that, but that's just the internet sadly. And like Dawko said, I hope the FNAF community can be brought back up to where it once was, before Scott retired. And to everyone still upset and stressed about what happened like me, we can get through this, it just takes time. "We didn't know we were making memories, we were just having fun."
This video painfully saddens me but Scott retiring is valid and his best bet in this situation. Scott has done so much good for so many people and then his career gets slashed and scared because of the extremists. It is very sad and Scott will be missed dearly.
2 years later, I'm still pissed this happened. So many people who were suicidal lost a man based on slanderous lies. From the stories and receipts I've seen from you and Darknurr, I'll forever defend Scott till I drop dead. These monsters did more damage than the threat they claim to be against would ever do. It disgusts me greatly.
@@TheTrueLunarVoid fr the lgbtq is marganilized but then they enflict this thing on people because of political donations even after donating millions to charity even lgbtq ones
Lewis is one of those people that made me smile in my darkest times. And knowing that Scott got him away from suicide thoughts... well, it is something that I never be grateful enough. Stay calm, humans. Live and love and be loved. =)
Or maybe you could say the demons are hate and “rest your own soul” is Scott retiring and finally getting some rest. (That I think he very much deserves the rest.)
*guy donates a total of $42,204 to politicians who actively make the lives of minorities a living hell. also he was only able to make such enormous donations because of the success of his game franchise, even when the fan base is/was mostly made up of people of color, queer people, neurodivergent people, etc* you goons: "he did nothing wrong!! cancel culture has gone TOO FAR!!!!!!!! 😡😡😡"
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. It is very moving for me to hear this from you. You have always been a very respectful person in this fandom and I will continue supporting you forever. I hope the best both for you and for Scott.
The man, the myth, and the legend has been put down. Man, I loved Fnaf ever since it came out and so have you, Dawko. I can tell just by your reaction. And we all know the games won’t be the same without him. All we can do is just wish he was back. Stay strong ( and please never forget Scott)
Man, Scott getting doxxed and getting death threats is not what he deserves, he deserves a great life and a happy life. Hope you are okay Scott, Thank you for 7 brilliant years.
He is the one of the nicest people I’ve seen in a while too, like Markiplier recently people were attacking him on a video he made 2 years ago for cancelling a stream for a death in his family and to piece himself together mentally
As an LGBTQ+ person, I will continue to support and play the fnaf games because these damn games were what shaped me as a person, they helped me through a lot of hard times. I will still continue to play the games and i will be begging my mum for tickets to see the fnaf movie when it comes out in the UK , i am not racist , homophobic, transphobic or any of the sort and i know that Scott said he was donating to these people because of reasons that were NOT homophobic or racist. Scott is a lovely person and i wish him the best retirement. Him and his family do not deserve anything that has been said to and about them, i think Twitter should just *back off* .
I was hoping that Scott would be at least a consultant for future fnaf games. I'm guessing that the fnaf movie will probably be last thing he'll work on
guys, remember, he said: "i will still be around, just not in the capacity that i used to be" he is still with us, the thing is, that someone will be running fnaf instead of him
to add to this: he will also MOST LIKELY still keep in relative touch with whoever he leaves the game series to, and though he may not be in full control of the series anymore I reckon he will have says in things like designs, important story elements in future games, etc
I just hope that his retirement doesn't turn into another Star Wars esque situation but so long as Illumix, Steel Wool, or whomever takes the reins, cares deeply for the series we can look forward to a long and high quality continuation
I would argue this could be worse then the star wars situation. At least the Star Wars situation had a few bright spots. This though…I truly worry the fallout that this will bring. Unlike Starwars, I get the feeling that this may well create a far larger fallout against the LGBTQ community. A travesty. I am astounded by how brazen and reckless activists are getting. To quote a certain news article from the Atlantic, “What hell hath Bod Dole Wrought?”. The article focused heavily on how such a destructive mind set is endangering the nation, dare I say, the world.
@@josephlh1690 Maybe so. However, like with Dawko, as I am British, I can't comfortably say anything about American politics and I know nothing about the people scott donated to, nor their veiwpoints, goals or policies. I only know the overveiws that were given by both Dawko and John of FuNaff and given what little I do know, I agree with Dawko and John. I too support the LGBTQ+ community and as a crossdresser, am marginal to it. However, Aside from the insanely huge charity donations, I don't know much else about Scott as a person either so I won't pretend to know his reasons for doing what he did. All I know is the series, the characters, the masterful storytelling elements and the community. All of which I care about and want to see continued to its fullest. However, let me just say this, I don't believe that he would seek to betray the trust built over 7 years with the community. By all appearances, he loved this franchise and this community, but even I can tell that he is definitly tired and probably needs rest and more time with his family.
Everyone after remembering the line Henry said: "It’s time for rest, for you, and for those you have carried in your arms." Everyone "Damn, that hit hard."
Pretty likely no one will ever see this, but (not-so) fun fact! The man who started the harassment campaign against Scott defended a dude who molested his own sister! That alone should tell you everything you need to know about the bitter and awful person who spearheaded a harassment campaign against one of the kindest people to ever use the internet. Scott did nothing wrong and Gryphoneer needs to be held accountable for the suffering he put the Cawthon family through.
Reminds me of how the guy who brought up the old James Gunn tweets of him making jokes (key word: jokes) related to pedophillia from 10 years ago, has ALSO made similar jokes previously, but at least the shitstorm of all those tweets being brought up again did start a butterfly effect that led to James making The Suicide Squad and is still on for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 anyway, so it worked out well in the end for James.
@@aregulardude2106 they're bitter, joyless people who have a "crabs in a bucket" mentality. if they can't be happy, then no one else can either. they also usually have skeletons in their closets that make them believe they need to overcorrect for so public perception of them will be positive, but they get so zealous that their own skeletons get dragged out in the same manner.
“A magical place for kids and grown-ups alike, where fantasy and fun come to life.” These games have brought so much enjoyment and imagination to our lives. Im glad that Scott is doing whats best, but I truly am gonna miss him.
This really is heartbreaking.💔 I am still very new to FNAF. Unfortunately, I joined the FNAF fandom just about a week before this happened, so I never was around during the earlier years of this community. But in my 6 months here, I have seen just how big of an impact Scott has made for so many people. No matter what people think of Scott, he really does have a kind heart and he has brought so much joy to so many people with his creations. And those years of memories will be forever cherished and loved by them. And to all those who had the audacity to threaten to *kill him, his wife, and his CHILDREN,* in the words of Henry Emily: *“THE DARKEST PIT OF HELL HAS OPENED TO SWALLOW YOU WHOLE. SO DON’T KEEP THE DEVIL WAITING, ‘OLD FRIEND’ ”*
I know I'm late but I really wanted to know what people's thoughts were on this and listening to dawko almost break down in tears saying Scott helped him out of a dark time made me tear up
God, this is why I don't go on Twitter, there is just never a middle ground, its either they want to kill you if you make an innocent mistake or they just think you are something you are not. Also, best of luck Dawko, we all love you.
@@sonotfetch Idk tho, he did what he thought would do his country best not realizing some of their intentions, but I do agree, no one deserves to be sent death threats, kinda reminds me of Donut Operator
Imagine how fnaf is going to look after this... the movie... security breach. I hope that whoever takes over, truly understands fnaf and it’s importance to many people like me.
He said he’s picking so when he entrusts someone with this entire thing you know it’s going to be someone who knows what they’re doing heck he might even have matpat fix up and continue the lore side of FNAF for him
Looking back at this controversy, this makes me think that those that threaten and demonize other people for their beliefs may ironically enough turn people towards extremism because of their situation. This is why people must stay away from politics unless if they are actually mature enough to not slander people that aren't on their side. Because if they don't, well then, they'll be making the problem worse tenfold.
We live in a world of hypocrisy...People dont believe in hate but will hate on others because what they mean, but dont specify, is that they dont believe in hatred thats toward themselves...
It was the game journalist who started this all. Giving missguided "Articles" calling him "homophobic" and "racist" which is not true simply just to cancel him due to a political veiw
At least Scott will finally spend more time with his family. He deserves a break after all these years. Thank you for the memories Scott, thank you for changing my life.
in my eyes now FNAF is like a book. Scott is the author he's job is to write the story and steel wool is the illustrator there job is to make the story into a picture book
Man 2 years later. Scott will always be remembered as he made the best out of our childhoods. He gave us memories that we’ll never forget. Thank you Scott.
The ones who sink to that level aren’t worth even the dirt under my boot. They have my disdain. No one should have death threats sent to them..(Except balloon boy for costing me more times than anyone on 10/20 mode in fnaf 2) (**Was also trying to cheer people up with a Joke)
You can see how it looks like around his eyes, he probably either got so mad or cried so much, around his eyes it looks pretty white, while his entire face is normal
Thanks for 7 fantastic years Scott ❤️💜

The issue with politics here in America is that it’s very black and white with people. There’s no room for nuance, there’s no room for moderation. People keep voting for the same parties, and the same problems keep coming up. If you identify as Republican, it’s always assumed that you’re religious, anti-lgbtq+, and pro military. But the reality is that someone might vote Republican simply for the fact that they support the military and nothing else. People don’t see that. If you identify as Democrat, it’s assumed that you’re pro-choice, anti-gun, and probably not religious. But someone could be voting simply for the fact that they are pro-choice but still like Guns and subscribe to a mainline religion. But people don’t see that. I think Scott got caught up in that dynamic. I mean think about it. Why would he try to hurt the people he makes games for? Many politicians stand for many different things, and sometimes politicians that I don’t always agree with, hell even if I hate them, make good points about certain things.
This comment is so true, it hurts. 💔
This is very well said. I think that political opinions shouldn't be your only defining factor. I had a friend that I knew for a very long time but as soon as he found out we had different political opinions, he blocked me on all social media platforms and we are no longer in contact. Even just expressing opinions can change people's entire view of you even if they don't have opposing opinions, often causing unneeded arguments. I've learned not to share most controversial opinions because it can make even the best of friends think differently. If someone is that arrogant that they will block you for one small difference in opinion, they don't deserve to be your friend and similar things are happening in this community for the same reasons. They don't agree with Scott's opinion. The angry group of people have the right to be as angry as they want, they can even stop buying the games but I think they should stop attacking him and accept that they can't change the fact that it happened. Scott has the right to his own opinion and although it's unfortunate that he is leaving, it's good that he is separating the controversy from the games so that people who now hate him can still enjoy and have fun with the games. (I know that I jumped around a bit but I hope you got my point.)
@@supergreennarwhal2295 exactly! Your input made sense so no worries there. I agree with the idea that politics shouldn’t be a defining characteristic at all for someone, let alone their personalities. That’s why I choose to stay moderate on most things, it’s just easier and makes more sense the more you think about it. Because, like I said at the end of my original comment, you might end up agreeing more with someone on a different side of the political spectrum if you give them enough time to actually explain their position :)
lmao the FNaF 3 song goes to the entirety of twittcrap as a whole, there are 2gender and you cant swap to another go cry about it twittcrap users, luckily they are only a tiny loud minority and echochamber that nobody listens to or cares about, they can keep it up though the rest of the internet and globe will be laughing at their idiocy, it is indisputable proof that twitter, its users, and company suck and should be banned everywhere
Also independent party candidates never really have a chance because republicans and democrats have so much more money for campaining
What is worse is that a lot of people against Scott will voluntarily come forward and speak out their hate on him, they're most likely on this comment section besides being everywhere on twitter

“Logic left the chat”
Exterme Leftest always using feelings instead of facts
We love and understand you. Thank you for this video Dawko
The saddest thing is that I can litterly hear dawko trying not to cry or at least that's what it's sounds like
Hey there. You know, the weirdest thing has happened to me. There was a comment to this video that had about 1.2k likes and about 15 replies, about a couple of hours ago. I left a comment there and now I can't find it anymore, the original comment, which is something I have never seen before. It was a pretty long comment too and I can only imagine that the person who posted it had it removed. If that is the case then it's fine, because I can probably rewrite it close to the original. If the original comment is still out there then I'm sorry for the repost and for what I'm about to say. For if the person in question did delete the comment after I replied, then you are the biggest coward I have ever seen on the internet and I hope it works well for you in the future.
The comment in question was the quote: "We're still your friends; Do you believe that?". Even though I've not followed the development of this community for some time, I was there when the first game came out and Game Theory was combing it for all the lore. And so I replied to the person who wrote the quote that, after looking through the comments section of this video, my conclusion was that the answer is no. There has never been a game developer more loved by his community than Scott. I understand that the games will continue to come out, but make no mistake, Scott is FNaF. Never before has a gaming community given so much back to a developer for all his love and consideration for them, for the fact that he's kept in close contact with them through all the years since it began. And it was never even a question of whether someone would be accepted into the community's fold, regardless of reason.
So why is it that, when he is going through all of this, the community is not there for him? Because he's made one mistake? Then why not have him explain why he did it, what he was thinking or what he believed he was doing? And if his reasoning is not sound enough, then have him apologize to his community and promise to be more careful in the future. What about all of the good deeds he has done in the past? Would anybody care to enumerate all of them? How many people are with us today, because of the community that he has created? Instead, many people seem to be content with just sending him on his merry way, while saying: "Thank you for everything Scott, we love you but you're on your own with this one!". Do you really believe that he has chosen this outcome because he was not spending enough time with his family?
The people responsible for this are part of a cult which operates the same everywhere. They are not affiliated with the groups they claim to, because they only seek to destroy. Show me a game that they've created (or like for that matter) that has a community like this one. Show me a book they've written, a painting they've painted, music they've composed, statues, buildings, anything! It's very easy to destroy, but almost impossible to create and because they can't do it, then nobody should be allowed to even try. And make no mistake Dawko, if you don't stand up for your friends, then you will be alone when they come for you, because everybody is guilty of something they have or have not done in their eyes. Except for them of course, the perfect ones.
I understand that Scott is very scared and troubled by all the recent events, and that he needs some time away from everything. This decision was, maybe at gun point, forced upon him but it is not what he wants to do. The community should be there for him and to welcome him back when he is ready to return, instead of wishing him a: "Happy retirement!" and breathing a sigh of relief upon finding out that the games will still come out. If FNaF has meant something to you, then this is the time to be courageous. Maybe we can still answer yes to that quote.
@@b0gdyb0ta😭
@@b0gdyb0ta The trouble with that is there is no "mistake" here. There is no "gun point" to be held at to make the political decision to support specific politician's. While the sentiment behind that post is valid, the fact of the matter is that there is no apology or explanation owed for participating in American politics. It's our right as American citizens, and it's disturbing how few want to accept that.
@@Fangzaprika I know there is no mistake, but his detractors tried to confuse everybody. So it was important for him to clear the waters, which he did. You are absolutely right and by his "decision made at gun point", I was referring to him having to step away from his work and community, which was the whole point of this scandal to begin with, regardless of anything else.
Not gonna lie, almost started tearing up while watching this.
Scott didn't deserve any of those death threats, if anything nobody deserves to be sent death threats no matter how bad the situation is.
It's concerning that people would even think about sending stuff like that, but that's just the internet sadly.
And like Dawko said, I hope the FNAF community can be brought back up to where it once was, before Scott retired.
And to everyone still upset and stressed about what happened like me, we can get through this, it just takes time.
"We didn't know we were making memories, we were just having fun."
This video painfully saddens me but Scott retiring is valid and his best bet in this situation. Scott has done so much good for so many people and then his career gets slashed and scared because of the extremists. It is very sad and Scott will be missed dearly.

That would be a great wish. Cause sometimes ngl I feel like I am one of the only right wing guys in the fnaf community.
I just hope that his retirement doesn't turn into another Star Wars esque situation but so long as Illumix, Steel Wool, or whomever takes the reins, cares deeply for the series we can look forward to a long and high quality continuation
I would argue this could be worse then the star wars situation. At least the Star Wars situation had a few bright spots. This though…I truly worry the fallout that this will bring. Unlike Starwars, I get the feeling that this may well create a far larger fallout against the LGBTQ community. A travesty. I am astounded by how brazen and reckless activists are getting. To quote a certain news article from the Atlantic, “What hell hath Bod Dole Wrought?”. The article focused heavily on how such a destructive mind set is endangering the nation, dare I say, the world.
Either case, we should probably hope for the best Scott left the franchise in the right hands...
@@josephlh1690 Maybe so. However, like with Dawko, as I am British, I can't comfortably say anything about American politics and I know nothing about the people scott donated to, nor their veiwpoints, goals or policies.

I too support the LGBTQ+ community and as a crossdresser, am marginal to it. However, Aside from the insanely huge charity donations, I don't know much else about Scott as a person either so I won't pretend to know his reasons for doing what he did. All I know is the series, the characters, the masterful storytelling elements and the community. All of which I care about and want to see continued to its fullest. However, let me just say this, I don't believe that he would seek to betray the trust built over 7 years with the community. By all appearances, he loved this franchise and this community, but even I can tell that he is definitly tired and probably needs rest and more time with his family.

Reminds me of how the guy who brought up the old James Gunn tweets of him making jokes (key word: jokes) related to pedophillia from 10 years ago, has ALSO made similar jokes previously, but at least the shitstorm of all those tweets being brought up again did start a butterfly effect that led to James making The Suicide Squad and is still on for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 anyway, so it worked out well in the end for James.
Jesus people like how do they do this now to others
@@aregulardude2106 they're bitter, joyless people who have a "crabs in a bucket" mentality. if they can't be happy, then no one else can either. they also usually have skeletons in their closets that make them believe they need to overcorrect for so public perception of them will be positive, but they get so zealous that their own skeletons get dragged out in the same manner.
Jesus Christ
Is who he needs like, wow.
Can’t wait for all these people to get a massive reality check when they reach 18.

@@VEN0MIZED This is too true.
“A magical place for kids and grown-ups alike, where fantasy and fun come to life.” These games have brought so much enjoyment and imagination to our lives. Im glad that Scott is doing whats best, but I truly am gonna miss him.

;-;
"Um... Ok, I'll leave you to it. See you on the flip side." -Scott Cawthon
This really is heartbreaking.💔 I am still very new to FNAF. Unfortunately, I joined the FNAF fandom just about a week before this happened, so I never was around during the earlier years of this community. But in my 6 months here, I have seen just how big of an impact Scott has made for so many people. No matter what people think of Scott, he really does have a kind heart and he has brought so much joy to so many people with his creations. And those years of memories will be forever cherished and loved by them.
And to all those who had the audacity to threaten to *kill him, his wife, and his CHILDREN,* in the words of Henry Emily: *“THE DARKEST PIT OF HELL HAS OPENED TO SWALLOW YOU WHOLE. SO DON’T KEEP THE DEVIL WAITING, ‘OLD FRIEND’ ”*
No matter what they say about scott he is still an amigo and he is in team awsome
Imagine when you woke up and just read a literally bad news that will hurt you, yeah i felt you dawko. it really really hurts
I remember one day i woke up and Security Breach was delayed
Agreed, this Scott situation never should have happened in the first place
I'm playing Minecraft I happen to open Google and I saw vanny clicked a my heart shattered
Just remember what Freddy says, “When you wake up, just remember, friends are forever....❤️“
I'm already crying Faz-Tears just reading this...
@@S-CB-SL-Animations aw, you know what.....I’ll sub to u
When you wake up, just remember: Scott created this franchise; cherish it forever
You reade you or the won is good humen
Ye
Thank you Scott for the 7 years, you’ll always be our legend.
Agreed, I will miss you scott
Agreed
Agreed
Agreed Indeed
Agreed
I know I'm late but I really wanted to know what people's thoughts were on this and listening to dawko almost break down in tears saying Scott helped him out of a dark time made me tear up
God, this is why I don't go on Twitter, there is just never a middle ground, its either they want to kill you if you make an innocent mistake or they just think you are something you are not. Also, best of luck Dawko, we all love you.
it is all over tiktok too
@@beanthegoblin6354 Tiktok has just become the video based version of Twitter at this point.
To be honest what Scott did was not an innocent mistake. Despite that, it doesn’t warrant him or his family being threatened or doxxed.
@@sonotfetch Idk tho, he did what he thought would do his country best not realizing some of their intentions, but I do agree, no one deserves to be sent death threats, kinda reminds me of Donut Operator
Those are just fact to be honest
The 7 years of fnaf's existence are the the 7 nights, the seventh night is over and Scott has retired
That made me cry a bit lol
News.. Scott is giving fnaf to a company like "SteelWool"
I think it's a good stopping point :)
@@oswaldsrecovery3614 That’s about what I thought he would do and I hope they care about the game and work hard
also the 6th Night is know to be a nightmare compared to previous runs. and strangely enough, that fits 2020.
Imagine how fnaf is going to look after this... the movie... security breach. I hope that whoever takes over, truly understands fnaf and it’s importance to many people like me.
I’m guessing Steel Wool will take over, but Scott will still be behind the scenes approving stuff and helping with the story.
Scott is still making the movie and SB then he’s going to fall back and let someone else take over
Scott won't let someone who's going to ruin the series take the wheel. He cares about us all too much to let that happen.
@@notokbutok Don't give them credit. They don't deserve to be the reason for Scott's retirement.
He said he’s picking so when he entrusts someone with this entire thing you know it’s going to be someone who knows what they’re doing heck he might even have matpat fix up and continue the lore side of FNAF for him
Looking back at this controversy, this makes me think that those that threaten and demonize other people for their beliefs may ironically enough turn people towards extremism because of their situation.
This is why people must stay away from politics unless if they are actually mature enough to not slander people that aren't on their side. Because if they don't, well then, they'll be making the problem worse tenfold.
The same people who preached against hate are the ones who are sending him hate. *"You have become the very thing you swore to destroy"*
Ironic
@@robotpirate8945 insert emperor meme here*
We live in a world of hypocrisy...People dont believe in hate but will hate on others because what they mean, but dont specify, is that they dont believe in hatred thats toward themselves...
Nothing new...😔
It was the game journalist who started this all. Giving missguided "Articles" calling him "homophobic" and "racist" which is not true simply just to cancel him due to a political veiw
Respect is all I can say, Dawko. That's all I can say.
Me too
@@steveking7130 k buddy
@@steveking7130 You are cringe
At least Scott will finally spend more time with his family. He deserves a break after all these years. Thank you for the memories Scott, thank you for changing my life.
We love you scott no matter what. 🐻🐥🦊🐰
We got freddy, ducky, pirate cove man and bunny b*tch balls
🎈👦
The moment I heard Scott announced retirement, it hurted me as spring locks snapped inside my body. Thank you, Scott.
in my eyes now FNAF is like a book. Scott is the author he's job is to write the story and steel wool is the illustrator there job is to make the story into a picture book
Beautifully said
This, this is nice
That’s a beautiful way to put it
“I want you to know that focusing on someone else’s failure or success is the wrong Way to live - Scott cawthon
He's such a wise man
@@pinksoft39 yeah you are right
Man 2 years later. Scott will always be remembered as he made the best out of our childhoods. He gave us memories that we’ll never forget. Thank you Scott.
Anyone who dares step into the territory of death threats is an absolute and inexcusable disappointment.
Nothing to say but agreed
The ones who sink to that level aren’t worth even the dirt under my boot. They have my disdain. No one should have death threats sent to them..(Except balloon boy for costing me more times than anyone on 10/20 mode in fnaf 2)
(**Was also trying to cheer people up with a Joke)
you can see him trying to hold back his tears. you know it hurts him that he got cancelled. we understand you dawko.
i know how he feels. except i couldnt hold the tears back
well he didnt get cancelled he was forced to retire but hey at least he gave horror LIFE and it was a great mystery
You can see how it looks like around his eyes, he probably either got so mad or cried so much, around his eyes it looks pretty white, while his entire face is normal
Your profile pic basically describes us
Watching this make me want to hug Dawko. Being suicidal is not something easy to speak about.
I cried it shows how much Scott cares
