I absolutely love the Withered designs. Withered Freddy looks a bit derpy, but being honest, she kind of should. It just makes his design feel more like something you'd see in the 80s. Withered Bonnie is one of my all time favorites, because just look at him. No arm, no face, and no fucks given. Withered Chica's got one of the most iconic designs in the franchise, name another animatronic who has no hands but can STILL kill you. And Withered Foxy is another Foxy variant, so he's obviously top tier.
One thing I noticed about Scott's form of story telling. It's usual takes place in an area that can't be replicated in a 3D environment, or the in-game maps. The Character designs most likely follow the same rule. Where every choice he makes does not match with what's relevant. Chica's Party World has never been used outside as an excuse. He has a larger world than his story called for.
I honestly love this take on Withered Chica. I always assumed she looked and sounded off thinking that she was designed to have her jaw broken. But now looking at her as a springlock animatronic does explain why she looks and sounds different and a lot scarier than the other withereds in my opinion. Loved the video and can’t wait to see more of your content!
That part about her being the first (to possibly die) but by springlock suit, but then have it be poetic with William dying by springlock, I feel like that was the intended way, rather than some kid named cassidy who we practically hear of, stuffed into golden feddy, and then they get springlocked, jesus..legit gave me chills on how you said it. I also recommend though you play the games too! I plan on recording my playthrough, but not sure how to separate audio in obs, so I'll let you know if I find anything! Also I think it was stated somewhere that people thought chica and the Medoicore melodies were part of the same band, since they are all around the same as farm or zoo animals, while you have the original being freddy and bonnie, and then foxy was an addition made somewhere along the lines. Great video! Keep it up!
When it comes to the games, I just don't really like the gameplay loop of sit there and wait for stuff to happen. And then when it comes to the newer games, I'm a total coward in VR, and I'm not too good at stealth games. But I've watched breakdowns and playthroughs so I feel like I have at least enough info in my brain to make smaller videos. Nothing like "OH MY GOD I SOLVED MIDNIGHT MOTORIST!", but to be fair, who is actually gonna solve that? While I do feel like Midnight Motorist's meaning was solid when 6 came out, I DON'T feel like it has stayed the same since then. I feel like it's just been retconned over and over by this point to mean entirely different stuff, so I'm not gonna touch it.
I can explain her voice effect. When Scott was putting casting calls on the website he does that for, he said Withered Chica should sound like a freight train that's coming after you. I see the fan comparison, but the blades of the fan would have to be moving very slow to give a similar effect.
This is an interesting theory! Also, some other stuff I noticed -Chica's jaw being able to open like that kinda reminds me of that one part in the FNAF 4 minigame where Afton is helping an employee into a suit. (I believe this can be seen in the 2nd minigame) -Chica being yellow would help her fit in with the other animatronics at Fredbear's better, as the other animatronics were all yellow. Granted, chickens are often depicted as yellow, so maybe I'm reaching a bit. -The endo not being a springlock endo could still make sense, since the company "even started retrofitting them with the new technology." (Phone guy, Night 2) Note that I'm not that invested in the lore, so some stuff could be wrong, incorrect, or explained by other stuff. Also, my bad for the long comment. Edit: I'll probably be banished to the shadow realm for using something from the movie as a talking point, but spring bonnie has a weird voice effect, which kinda sounds like the afton screaming in the game and Chica talking? Idk, might be another reach
Oh yeah! I forgot about the movie's vocal effect on Spring Bonnie. Good point. While the movie has many things that break continuity - such as Vanessa being William's daughter, Mike not being WIlliam's son, so on - I feel like there's still logic to be found. I feel like the animatronics are unaltered, so I don't think it's too much or a stretch to consider the way Spring Bonnie's mark makes Afton sound in the movie.
This actually makes a lot of sense! Considering how Chica's Party World existed as an offshoot of Baby's Pizza World, it's not far off to infer that she always had started off as a standalone attraction! And also, considering the theory/popular headcanon? (not sure) that the state of the Withereds is reflective of the way that they were killed/how they died (such as Jeremy having his face and arm being cut off by William, reflecting the appearance of Withered Bonnie (which hasn't been proved as far as I know)), it could be easily assumed that she's in such a stiff pose because of the effects of the springlocks themselves, stiffening into place after they snap. Since Suzie was the first (assuming that you take this interpretation as true), he might've stuffed her into a springlock suit to see the affect it had on a human body first-hand. Edit: I forgor (💀) to add but it kind of gives me the idea of a like, the separate resaraunts having an almost boy's/girl's club vibe. Fredbear and Spring Bonnie are both male, so Fredbear's Family Diner would be tailored more towards young boys whilst Chica's restaraunt would be tailored more towards young girls. If I'm not mistaken, wasn't Baby's opened rougly at the same time as Fredbear's? I like the idea of Chica and Circus Baby having a relationship like Fredbear and Spring Bonnie! Personally I think it would more realistically a Foxy variant (being female ofc), since Foxy is in Freddy's and not Circus Baby. The idea of a genderbent OG Foxy animatronic is pretty funny- and I suppose it would give more credence to Mangle/Funtime Foxy being ambiguous when it comes to their canon pronouns. If anything, the two chains probably merged to become Freddy's!
Lolbit could have been the female Foxy, which could give them actually a reason to exist. Always felt like they were underused, and that sucks, cuz while just being a pallet swap of FT Foxy, Lolbit is cool looking. Could ALSO be where Roxanne originated, with a little reconning. Who knows, maybe the springlock suit from SL could be retconned into a Roxanne prototype. Would make very little sense though.
@@emrickazor2610 Ooo, I like this! I think we’re makin’ something good here! Definitely headcanon material, and a great AU idea! And yeah, Lolbit is definitely underused, at least in the mainline games!
With the fall fest thing, it is now almost confirmed that chica was created along with the originals. the fact that she is a springlock suit is confirmed, along with the others, as all nightmares have 5 fingers, so all the original characters were all transformed from costumes into animatronics by Edwin as showed in the tales from the pizzaplex
why are there only 2 comments well at least none are hate ones and instead ones of them agreeing with your theory but it does make sense but you deserve more views and subs you only have 75 subs which is a small amount but that just means that the algorithm got you so people got to help you beat the algorithm i can't do much but when people do work together it can make a lot happen (correction 76 subs) also this is just my opinion
Well. I definitely appreciate the notion. I don't know how many FNAF theories I will be doing. I just hyperfixate a lot on these things. But whenever the brain juices actually wanna pump for FNAF theories that I haven't seen anyone talk about, I will jump on it.
A bit of a reach on my part BUT their is a pattern with chica being in another location, just look at funtime chica and how she wasn't in sister location
All the endo models in fnaf 2 are the same, bar the toys who don't have a modeled endos. Also the mediocre melodies and rockstar animatronics have the same jaw mechanisms. Withered freddy has never had voicelines and withered foxy had similar talking through fan voice
OOooh I missed these details. I'm glad I paused the video I was watching to read this. I entirely forgot about the mediocre melodies, so thanks a million for reminding me of their existence. And you're entirely right, they have the same exact two part head as Withered Chica. I'll have to keep that in mind if I go making another theory. That way I can make sure I am correct about what I'm saying.
Thanks! To be honest, the reception on this theory has made me wanna stat making more videos. I was sure someone was gonna comment like 'You overlooked X, which disproves this theory entirely.". But so far it looks like there's no real evidence AGAINST it.
I don't have a high quality mic. I can't be expected to go out and buy a Blue Yeti or something when I don't really regularly record lmao! I'll keep this in mind for the future though.
7:40 I do want to point out that she sounds like she is talking more through the little box walkie talkie things that flip through radio channels really fast that ghost hunters use rather than a fan
@@cadencase5216 That's why we speculate on things. Sure, everyone in the community agrees on this and that, but sometimes you just gotta break away from what's widely accepted and just go for something different. A different viewpoint on things is always nice to have just for future speculation. Not that I really think there's any future speculation to do on Withered Chica, considering she's LONG gone.
Chica was always the creepiest to me out of all the animatronics
