It's a shame you discovered Matpat after he retired this year. His channels are still going by 5 different successors. He said he refused to let one person run all the channels like he did as it was just too much work. Let that sink in. He had 5 people take over the roles he did by himself. He also kept FNAF relevant throughout the years and had a friendly rivalry with the developer.
henry's speech deserves an oscar or something, it was amazing, perfect, "the darkest pit of hell is waiting to swallow you whole, so dont keep the devil waiting old friend"
Not so much friends but more as friendly rivals (They never even met before the saw each other on the filming grounds). One making the narrative and one breaking it down.
Hey Eralia! Just to help you out in understanding the story a little more, these videos are pretty good at explaining the broad strokes of the narrative BUT the first and last parts are very much just theory - the games give us vague info and new info constantly comes out - so don’t take the first and last parts literally, they’re basically just guesses (the middle is pretty much fine tho) 😁
Well, we know that Fall Fest began in the 1970's (The poster in Help Wanted 2 says this). That's the earliest point we know currently know about in the FNAF timeline, even before the bite of 83'. Also, when the new game 'Secret of the Mimic' comes out (Again, in the teaser trailer, the year 1979 pops up in a 'blink and you'll miss it moment'), which is again, earlier than what we know currently as the earliest point of the timeline.
@@riverjonzy no it’s mostly all speculation. we don’t know the deal with chica’s part world, Henry, the mediocre melodies and William was never a loving parent it’s just guessing - which yes obv it’s just a theory, but it’s important to reiterate that fact since people usually take what MatPat says as THE story - so it’s just good to remember that in these vids there’s a lot of guess work
the lore of sister location was so amazing, even more than the first 4 games, the game was more of a lore dump but the lore was juicy, imagine getting another child of his from his own insane robot
The “evolution” of Michael’s corpse and his narrating of “finding his father” appear in a secret custom night on Sister Location, which you unlock if you disobey Baby on the 5th night while she’s guiding you through Ballora Gallery. First you’ll unlock a secret night which is a FNAF 1 style night, which you “fight” Ennard, the guy with the clown mask, and if you beat this night, you’ll have access to the whole custom night with all the animatronics
I like how people keep telling other people not to take Matpat’s timeline as gospel when not even Matpat treats it as such. It’s just one of many theories that attempts to explain the story. So far this is the best we have until someone constructs their own timeline.
@@johnjordan211 part 2 and 3 are fine it’s really only 1 and 4 which are parts of the story we had no info on at the time so you can’t really blame matpat
Also the mostly agreed order of the game is; FNaF 4, FNaF 5 (Sister Location), FNaF 2, FNaF 1, FNaF 3, FNaF 6 (Pizza Sim), UCN, AR, Help Wanted 1, Security Breach, Help Wanted 2, SB: Ruin We are also getting FNaF Secret of the Mimic next year which with the evidence we have so far is in 1979 which would put it before ANYTHING else we have seen in a game in the timeline.
Something interesting about SOTM is that Fredbear's already exists (marketing for it is in the game) and it says Freddy's is coming soon yet in the timeline Freddy's wouldn't open for another 4 years
Hey Eralia!!! My son is a crazy FNAF fan, knows all the lore and when I told him you were covering the games he got excited! I haven’t had a chance to watch your streams or videos but just wanted to give a shout out to you ❤❤❤. Hope you’re well Lady! Keep up the good work!
going down Game Theory's "FNAF" playlist could be a fun long-term reaction series honestly. Both get an idea of the progression over the years of the game lore's expansion, AND a neat little timelapse of Matpat's own growth in the past decade. like, maybe react to one or two every once in a while in between videos, could be fun.
The great thing about fnaf is that the story is hidden extremely well. Even when faced with a piece of lore, it means nothing when you don't think of the other pieces. It's only when you dive deep into the source code, or actually listen to the dialogue, that you get the full picture.
Something you could watch is Dawko's Interviews with the FNaF Creator Scott Cawthon, he has done 2, Number 1 was for beating Ultimate Custom Night, Number 2 was for the 10th Anniversary Week Event
What I think you should watch after the separate theory videos and the videos showing the secrets and hidden details in each game. It’ll help understand what game where each piece of detail came from and might help understand since this theory video showing is very fantasy storytelling like.
In fnaf 2 you don’t play as William. You play as Jeremy. A random guy. William is the guard before you. And stuff you didn’t recognize was stuff you missed in previous games, like Michael voice, was not at the end of Pizzeria simulator. It was at the end of Sister location, but you didn’t get to hear that because you didn’t complete the game.
Actually the current consensus is you play as Michael for the first six games with him changing his name each time due to getting fired or committing arson at the end of each game. Except 4 and 5 where he wasn’t an employee and 6 because he died. Also before somebody comments about the Crying Child being the MC of 4, apparently the phone toy points to it being Michael.
@@calebgoodman3028 in fnaf 2 Jeremy is a random guy, but on night 7 “Fritz Smith” is Michael’s fake name. And it’s most likely Michael in 4 because of the phone call. And it’s already confirmed to be Michael in 5/Sister Location. Also, I doubt he burned any locations down except for Fnaf 3. And then Fnaf 6 by Henry.
@@darkam7302You are correct. You play as Michael in every game before UCN, but not EVERY night in all of the games. Many minigames are played as other characters/animatronics (actually, I don’t think Michael is the player character in any of the minigames, unless you think of them as _literal_ minigames that he himself is playing) and Michael is only the player character for 1 night of FNAF 2.
These videos are fine but have a lot of details they gloss over for brevity. Watching all of MatPat's FNAF theories in the order they've come out is like watching a TV show. It felt like this: Game comes out, game comes out that expands into a new era, game comes out with details that completely recontextualize the previous game, game comes out that most likely isn't canon but has important clues, game comes out that rewrites over all known lore, 20 books with stories release that might or might not be an alternate universe, everything is retconned and the world is a simulation, MatPat goes insane It would be a very long journey to watch them in order but also very rewarding to see the buildup to these videos and what the community has gone through these past 10 years
@@johnjordan211 There was that one time when the games went meta and implied all the stuff prior to Help Wanted were just games and didn't actually happen
You might be interested to see other channels theories! We have pieces, but everyone can see their compilation different. Some things are consistent, of course, but the whole lore is vague enough for assumptions!
the sister location bunker is definitely questionable, having animatronics that needs to be "controlled shocked" to follow their maker hahaha, they definitely know that there are ghosts inside of them
“What is fazgoo?” It’s a Fazbear branded substance that violently clones someone and commits identify theft! Also, this is just my opinion, but the books are so much more twisted than the games! Like, just imagine ur body being eaten out by sea monkeys who literally turn u into a mass of goop! Ugh!
I will say as that part 4 is the one that is mostly wrong, which is very common when talking about the most recent parts as we don't have all the info yet for what I call either Era 2 or Season 2 of the FNaF Story which started with FNaF Help Wanted 1 and the latest Help Wanted 2 (we still are not sure on whether or not FNaF Into the Pit is in the same timeline, because it's based on a book but that is an argument in the community whether Books are part of the Games Timeline) BUT Part 4 is still good at the information is give just remember it's highly likely incorrect with how it uses that info.
Regardless of it's canonicity ITP doesn't really impact the second Arc at all as it seems to be part of the old arc or part of an arc 1.5 timeline wise (if canon)
Hey Eralia I'm enjoying Five Night at Freddy's even with all of the jump scares in it and I hope you having a great week and will have a great Halloween take care, Bless You and thank you my friend.☕👻🎃🇺🇲
Something I've never seen anyone understand bc he doesn't mention it, is that remnant is supposed to be obtainable through strong emotions, which can include happiness. So the delivery service wasn't supposed to be collecting victims.
Just to let you know, into the pit is the game version of one of the books. It isn't really canon to the rest of the games but canon to the books as the books kind of have their own universe.
Common thing I'm noticing (3rd video, just subbed!) is your volume level is PERFECT for headphone users, but for speakers I've never once had to max everything out to hear on the speakers! I assume possibly you might be working from a Laptop? if so it's probably the built in fans acting as constant background ambience that might be making software auto-fade your voice a little as well. I only bring it up because I'm not sure what channel goals might be or intended growth, but you have a lovely voice that we hard of hearing want the option to hear =)
I don't know if you're still watching these comments, but Dualprocesstheory did a single video that even Matpat said he thought was very satisfying from a narrative sense. Some of these exact dates are near impossible to nail down. But there you go. You look really pretty by the way.
If you wish to check out FNAF AR sadly it was shut down but there's pretty good remakes like darkest delivery(I think it's called) or the Roblox remake
I just found your channel- have you seen the movie yet? Security Breach is my favorite of the games so far... Very different from the others in the way that you're not always stuck in an office, and roam the huge Pizzaplex
In general, Game Theory videos are pretty good and solid theories. But this timeline is not only massively outdated already, part 4 especially is largely wrong in my opinion. But the biggest problem is the lore in general. The first few games are clearly far removed from what the lore is now, but they are still worked in somehow. We have a bunch of additional content such as books, graphic novels, spin off games, and a movie, for some parts we are specifically told they are not canon, but clearly have huge parallels to the story being told in the games. Some things are left ambiguous as to how much, if any, of it is actually relevant. A lot of the things you wondered where they came from, are from the additional nights/modes of the games you have played, the Ultimate Custom Night game (because it has voice lines for pretty much every animatronic), and the Survival Logbook. To truly "understand" where the lore is at right now, one would have to work through the last 10 years of theory videos. As a whole the lore is a huge mess, makes no sense, is not even attempted to be communicated in a normal way, and the reason the franchise is so successful. I think if we were told exactly what the lore was, the hype would have died down long ago.
While I do absolutely recommend you continue down this almost literal rabbit hole with MatPat and Tom's (the new host of Game Theory since Mat retired earlier this year) FNAF theories, there is much you need to be aware of. These are all theories and not meant to be taken as fact. FNAF is a series that does not hand out its lore, it seeds out complex and vague clues about what is happening in the story and there are literal channels dedicated to finding out what the heck is going on in these games. It is full of contradictions, retcons, misleadings, missed clues, and details that people have widely different opinions on. There is no real way to fully understand what is happening, rather channels like Game Theory simply do their best to draw conclusions based on what they're given, make assumptions where needed, and present them in easy to digest ways. And the conclusions they come to change and evolve over time as new information is presented or old information is reexamined. Even this Ultimate Timeline series is no longer accurate to the current understanding of some of these events. It should also be noted that some people get really pissed off at MatPat whenever he gets any details wrong or presents conclusions that they simply don't like, even if they have little to no evidence to disprove it. Game Theory tries their best with what they're given and it is all meant to be in good fun. So just be aware that not everything presented is going to be accurate, but also not everyone screaming about how wrong he is in the comments should be listened to. Also, it needs to be said that Scott Cawthon, the creator, had no real ideas for the lore at first. His first game was a last ditch effort to make something work after several failed game releases, ready to quit if it failed too. A sequel was made out of its popularity and only then did he actually start to build off the lore bit by bit, only having a somewhat solid idea where he wanted to go with it by games 4 and 5, which then of course changed further over time.
The funny thing is a lot of the third section was proven false like a week later due to new book revelations and even more the order of the children’s deaths were rearranged too. Not his fault mind you, most of the game’s story is told through speculation and you have to figure it out yourself.
@ I know the books are an alternate canon yes but stuff from the books have been used in recent games, with one character in particular getting an entire game about them next year.
BTW there's a lot of good info here but some bits are verryy wrong like the whole last episode but most of the details are pretty solid, good video though!!
Just one thing to note, part 4 is all debunked speculation about Security Breach. Parts 1-3 are mostly accurate and canon. Keep this in mind going forward in this series.
@@lokimiguel2452 The only other thing that was debunked was Henry bailing out William. Other than that, parts 1-3 are still like 90% accurate lore wise. Anything post Fnaf 6 is where the lore starts to get tricky.
hey if you are not going to play fnaf ultimate custom night, react to the video of the compilation of voice lines for that game, its a good video and its youtube
Your volume is wayyyyyyy too low. I thought I had my TV on mute on the volume I normally have it. I checked an older video of yours out of curiosity and the audio was fine on that one. Looks like you used to have a mic
She knows she's quiet, it's because she's not at home rn. She's currently..uh..."in the field"..? Or whatever you call it when you're off doing military work lol. She said in previous videos that her walls are VERY thin, and she doesn't want to wake up her fellow soldiers sleeping on the other side 😅 when she gets back home, it'll be back to normal Edit: I hope this what you're talking about lol, I'm not sure if it's more quiet than her recent videos have been. If so, there may be extra problems
@@chattycatty3336 oh ok that makes sense. But there is settings on the computer she can mess with to change the master volume after recording, before she uploads. I just came from her last of us playthrough and the audio is night and day
You should check out Wendigoon's timeline! It's a little different to MatPat's, but in my opinion, it makes more cohesive sense, and it is so much easier to understand.
I forget where in the video you asked, but in terms of if a lot of this is just fan stuff, i think theres been a few select Game theory episodes the creator of the series himself gave the seal of approval or at least the best we usually get of “he got it mostly right”. So we’re not all just crazy and making a collective fanfic… more or less. Technically, the whole concept of Mike being playable in 1-6 (except 2, he’d only be on night 7 and the actual player really is just some guy) isn’t confirmed, but it’s so widely accepted as fact and other stuff like the short story books do all but actually confirm it by doing the equivalent of “this guy named Vike worked at a horror attraction and is dealing with his horrible trauma from his father”. I mean his names not that on the nose, but essentially that.😅
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 I don't know, I just feel like Wendigoon trims the fat and includes the most concise rundown of only the most important events in the story.
"Five Nights at Freddy's Lore in Only 8:47:38" by GiBi's Horror Homestead is also a really good video, as well as a slightly different interpretation of FnaF's story
Yeah Five Nights is really easy to understand. An indie game dev wasn't having much success with solo projects resulting in making a new game for release in 2014, without much hard story but a few tantalizing threads of a plot sprinkled throughout, that becomes an instant success beyond what any dev could imagine and they immediately work on a sequel and then another sequel and another sequel and another and another in a very short turn around time. Games coming and going so fast that a story was the last thing being thought of. Things just happened and the genius game dev decided that they wouldn't actually make the story themselves, they would just have the fans that craved the games, craved a story, make it wholesale for the dev.
Unfortunately you're quite late to being a huge fan of The Game Theorists. :/ just a year or two ago, MatPat and his wife abandoned it, and may even have sold it. I'm not so sure about the second part, but they don't really have an input anymore. The channel is a little more than a shadow of it's former self now.
I will add that Mat is still hanging around on the GTLive channel but yeah they're slowly fading Mat out of the content. All the power to him though, he ended his run with the channel on a good note

fnaf security breach next i guess :) When you have time :)
BTW Security breach doesn't need to be played in VR
Its funny how she knew purple guy but not his real name.
Because the game never states it.
the creator of the games confirmed some and made vague yes and no answers on the theories
Welcome to Team Theorist
In general, Game Theory videos are pretty good and solid theories. But this timeline is not only massively outdated already, part 4 especially is largely wrong in my opinion.
But the biggest problem is the lore in general. The first few games are clearly far removed from what the lore is now, but they are still worked in somehow. We have a bunch of additional content such as books, graphic novels, spin off games, and a movie, for some parts we are specifically told they are not canon, but clearly have huge parallels to the story being told in the games. Some things are left ambiguous as to how much, if any, of it is actually relevant.
A lot of the things you wondered where they came from, are from the additional nights/modes of the games you have played, the Ultimate Custom Night game (because it has voice lines for pretty much every animatronic), and the Survival Logbook.
To truly "understand" where the lore is at right now, one would have to work through the last 10 years of theory videos. As a whole the lore is a huge mess, makes no sense, is not even attempted to be communicated in a normal way, and the reason the franchise is so successful. I think if we were told exactly what the lore was, the hype would have died down long ago.
Okay, guys, who's gonna tell her?
Oh please play security breach it’s on PlayStation and it’s the most different out of all of the games
You should check out the ddlc theorys
While I do absolutely recommend you continue down this almost literal rabbit hole with MatPat and Tom's (the new host of Game Theory since Mat retired earlier this year) FNAF theories, there is much you need to be aware of.
These are all theories and not meant to be taken as fact. FNAF is a series that does not hand out its lore, it seeds out complex and vague clues about what is happening in the story and there are literal channels dedicated to finding out what the heck is going on in these games. It is full of contradictions, retcons, misleadings, missed clues, and details that people have widely different opinions on. There is no real way to fully understand what is happening, rather channels like Game Theory simply do their best to draw conclusions based on what they're given, make assumptions where needed, and present them in easy to digest ways. And the conclusions they come to change and evolve over time as new information is presented or old information is reexamined. Even this Ultimate Timeline series is no longer accurate to the current understanding of some of these events.
It should also be noted that some people get really pissed off at MatPat whenever he gets any details wrong or presents conclusions that they simply don't like, even if they have little to no evidence to disprove it. Game Theory tries their best with what they're given and it is all meant to be in good fun. So just be aware that not everything presented is going to be accurate, but also not everyone screaming about how wrong he is in the comments should be listened to.
Also, it needs to be said that Scott Cawthon, the creator, had no real ideas for the lore at first. His first game was a last ditch effort to make something work after several failed game releases, ready to quit if it failed too. A sequel was made out of its popularity and only then did he actually start to build off the lore bit by bit, only having a somewhat solid idea where he wanted to go with it by games 4 and 5, which then of course changed further over time.
Now all you need to do is the fnaf movie
The funny thing is a lot of the third section was proven false like a week later due to new book revelations and even more the order of the children’s deaths were rearranged too. Not his fault mind you, most of the game’s story is told through speculation and you have to figure it out yourself.
The books are alternate canon.
@ I know the books are an alternate canon yes but stuff from the books have been used in recent games, with one character in particular getting an entire game about them next year.
@@willfanofmanyii3751they are 100 percent canon
@@calebgoodman3028 they are 100 percent canon
It's his fault for making stuff up
BTW there's a lot of good info here but some bits are verryy wrong like the whole last episode but most of the details are pretty solid, good video though!!
More dark tropes please.....
Just one thing to note, part 4 is all debunked speculation about Security Breach. Parts 1-3 are mostly accurate and canon. Keep this in mind going forward in this series.
Way more than that was debunked
@@lokimiguel2452 The only other thing that was debunked was Henry bailing out William. Other than that, parts 1-3 are still like 90% accurate lore wise. Anything post Fnaf 6 is where the lore starts to get tricky.
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 90 percent of it is not accurate
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859Michael did not go to sister location first
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 all of part 1 is speculation
hey if you are not going to play fnaf ultimate custom night, react to the video of the compilation of voice lines for that game, its a good video and its youtube
I love your voice
Your volume is wayyyyyyy too low. I thought I had my TV on mute on the volume I normally have it. I checked an older video of yours out of curiosity and the audio was fine on that one. Looks like you used to have a mic
She knows she's quiet, it's because she's not at home rn. She's currently..uh..."in the field"..? Or whatever you call it when you're off doing military work lol.
She said in previous videos that her walls are VERY thin, and she doesn't want to wake up her fellow soldiers sleeping on the other side 😅 when she gets back home, it'll be back to normal
Edit: I hope this what you're talking about lol, I'm not sure if it's more quiet than her recent videos have been. If so, there may be extra problems
@@chattycatty3336 oh ok that makes sense. But there is settings on the computer she can mess with to change the master volume after recording, before she uploads. I just came from her last of us playthrough and the audio is night and day
You should check out Wendigoon's timeline! It's a little different to MatPat's, but in my opinion, it makes more cohesive sense, and it is so much easier to understand.
welcome to my decade long hyperfization
hey eralia checkout batman arkham series too if u haven't already theire great games and moderately easy to run
I forget where in the video you asked, but in terms of if a lot of this is just fan stuff, i think theres been a few select Game theory episodes the creator of the series himself gave the seal of approval or at least the best we usually get of “he got it mostly right”. So we’re not all just crazy and making a collective fanfic… more or less. Technically, the whole concept of Mike being playable in 1-6 (except 2, he’d only be on night 7 and the actual player really is just some guy) isn’t confirmed, but it’s so widely accepted as fact and other stuff like the short story books do all but actually confirm it by doing the equivalent of “this guy named Vike worked at a horror attraction and is dealing with his horrible trauma from his father”. I mean his names not that on the nose, but essentially that.😅
1:06:27 uh..
Wednesday night with e r a l i a my speech to text cannot spell your name...😢 Ciao Bella
Wendigoon's FNAF lore video is, in my opinion, more concise, thorough, and just better.
It's alright. But he misses lots of important points and gets some stuff wrong, like Remnant not being in the game universe, which isn't true.
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 I don't know, I just feel like Wendigoon trims the fat and includes the most concise rundown of only the most important events in the story.
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 matpat is not accurate wither way lol
@@michaelraymon111 If you don'tlike his stuff, why are you watching a video about him?
@@michaelraymon111everything from fnsf 1-7 is pretty much accurate and mat says other possibilities stop hating on things u don’t know

"Five Nights at Freddy's Lore in Only 8:47:38" by GiBi's Horror Homestead is also a really good video, as well as a slightly different interpretation of FnaF's story
Yeah Five Nights is really easy to understand. An indie game dev wasn't having much success with solo projects resulting in making a new game for release in 2014, without much hard story but a few tantalizing threads of a plot sprinkled throughout, that becomes an instant success beyond what any dev could imagine and they immediately work on a sequel and then another sequel and another sequel and another and another in a very short turn around time. Games coming and going so fast that a story was the last thing being thought of. Things just happened and the genius game dev decided that they wouldn't actually make the story themselves, they would just have the fans that craved the games, craved a story, make it wholesale for the dev.
Unfortunately you're quite late to being a huge fan of The Game Theorists. :/ just a year or two ago, MatPat and his wife abandoned it, and may even have sold it. I'm not so sure about the second part, but they don't really have an input anymore. The channel is a little more than a shadow of it's former self now.
I will add that Mat is still hanging around on the GTLive channel but yeah they're slowly fading Mat out of the content. All the power to him though, he ended his run with the channel on a good note
Moving up and on with your life after creating and establishing an entire brand and devoting over a decade on it Isn’t “abandoning”.
God I hate how fan fiction like this whole ultimate timeline video was instead of simply taking it all the information we already know
that made no sense
Ikr 😂 @@puferphish
why💀 it’s more fun this way
That's....exactly what the video does... It simply fills in the gaps to make the overall lore easier to understand.
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859 it's dumb
