    Theorists, FNAF is my bread and butter. It has taken over my life and my brain. So when I say I think Gregory is a robot, I'm not kidding around. Today, I'm doubling down on my last theory. PLUS we are diving even deeper into the lore hidden in Five Nights At Freddy's: Security Breach!

Drawing connections from one to answer a question from another; that's how lore like this works.

      You will find many things we believe are facts, such as gravity and plate technoics are in fact theories. Because scientists can be very confident in their answers with well documented and supporting evidence. But unless we get God or whatever created the universe to confirm our answers, like a teacher grading a quiz, we can't say for certain. After all, much of science evolved from incorrect assumptions or that things are much more complicated than we originally thought. Like quantum mechanics.
      So yeah, Matpat 100% is giving us a theory because the evidence is there, even if that theory isn't confirmed.

  • @Mika-435

    I always thought that the reason Gregory has no records in the database is well... because he's shown in one of the endings to be homeless. Literally sleeping in an alleyway inside of a cardboard box.
    I feel like that's the simplest answer to that question and the one most strongly implied by the game. Furthermore, I don't really see much evidence for the Gregory being a robot theory apart from anything that can't also be explained away either as some sort of stylistic choice or by a much simpler, not secretly being a robot, answer.
    I know I'm late to the whole conversation but just wanted to put that out there because I don't really see anyone else in the comment section saying that. Great video, tho! Enjoyed it.

But that could also be done intentionally to resemble the purple color from his father.

Did want to point out that you might be onto something with Vanessa being Elizabeth. Did you realize that the voice actress for Baby and for Vanessa is the same person?

Also if Vanessa is 20 years old and this game takes place in the future, it would make the events of the original games over 40 years ago; after William had already died numerous times. How would William come back to life, have a baby as a dead dude, then die again? Vanessa is too young to be his child. UNLESS SHE'S ALSO A ROBOT..

    Regardless of whether these characters are *literally* the Afton kids, I think MatPat is 100% about it being a symbolic reunion. The crying child got bullied by animatronics, now his stand-in gets to conquer them mano-a-mano. Michael threw his life away getting justice for his siblings and other victims, and now Freddy gets to help them in michael’s death. Elizabeth never got the chance to live and become a person at all, so Vanny has to be saved from brainwashing to get a second shot at growing up.
    It doesn’t all have to make sense logically, only emotionally - which it does.

The crying child had his frontal lobe of his brain bitten off and scientifically when a frontal lobe is removed the person does not feel any type of fear and if Gregory is the crying child then this links to why hes go reckless and unsceard by the animatronic is because of the bite of 83 and that piece of the crying child life was build into the animatronic version of him also known as Gregory.
