    Friends, welcome to the FINAL part of our FNAF Timeline, t's been quite a ride putting this all together!

I'm so excited to see where we go next with this franchise and you all know I'll be right here with you pulling my hair out trying to make sense of it! Thank you all for theorizing alongside me!

    I think what actually happens is the devs don’t have actual answers but just like creating mystery and twists with each game but MattPat’s full timeline fits all the major pieces so well that they should just adopt it as canon and build from there imo

    Amazing job theory team! All these years just seeing Matt struggle and get frustrated from all the lore and just seeing how they all fit it together, it's just so awesome! Whether it's correct or not, I just love all the theories that Matt and the team put out. I don't play the games but the story and the way Matt just story tells in these past 3 videos made me so happy and joyful. Such an amazing job and so much hard work is shown here. Scott has made history with his game.

    This is not at all what I saw coming for this episode but I really like the direction it took. While we don’t have a lot of evidence about Mrs. Afton, I feel like this makes the most cohesive story when it comes to how confusing and convoluted the story has gotten in recent years

    As much as complicated the FNAF lore has always been, we should all still give respect that this one man has never given up on making us intrigued no matter what. Believe me if FNAF never happened, then MatPat would have never gotten the respect and passion he made to create one of the biggest phenomenons on not just Five Nights at Freddy’s, but gaming history in general. So MatPat I just want to say thank you for always never giving up on your theories and giving us so much interesting content that impacted so much over the years.

      ​@Parafoxl well it would make a great series and personally I like the idea, for example they could do an episode once or twice a week and catch up to the main episodes where he could make a day or two of separation between the theory and gtlive for opinion gathering and in the live he could speak about the loose threads of his theories while speaking about ideas and theories of the viewers

  • DustyStarr
    DustyStarr 8 hours ago

    wow, such an incredible timeline. well done everyone. my one though about this part is that in the fnaf encyclopaedia, Crying Child and Gregory have two different entries. now obviously they wouldn't outright canonise them as essentially the same person and this is probably a way of showing that it isn't the same person no matter how hard Mrs Afton tries to convince herself but worth taking a look at in the talk back!

  • Nicholas Harlan
    Nicholas Harlan 17 hours ago +3

    Maybe Mrs. Afton realized she needed to halt the spread of Glitchtrap. Having already successfully merged Afton into Vanessa, allowing more of the virus to spread around is not only redundant but also calls more unwanted attention to the situation from unsuspecting employees.

      Yeah it makes the lore soooo clear now. An 80 years old woman goes insane. And he doesn't even say which SB ending is canon. If Gregory frees Vanessa Freddy gets destroyed and only his head remains. And then Gregory burns Burntrap and the whole place collapses but Freddy isn't destroyed in that ending.

    Theorist team, you guys have gone above and beyond on this, and it's awesome. There's so much disparate lore here, and having one narrative to fit it together really enriches things, even if it is just a theory.

    honestly I can actually see clara rebuilding the whole fazbear industry, just think about it. Clara always wished for a normal perfect family, and she is still absolutely devastated that her family died because of a family diner her and William ran together, as a family. So naturally she strives to try to get her family back together even after all the tragedy that happened to the family, and what matpat says in this video is extremely probable in my opinion.

      @Higuera ft 1. How else would the mouth close? he literally explained that it was C.C's tears that caused it. He was crying so much out of the fear. Water causes the spring locks to fail even excessive moving. You expect him to be still and calm?
      2. Exactly YEARS ago BEFORE security breach it makes sense it was Mrs. Afton who else would do it? He literally says there's a table with her at it if she has absolutely no major role in the lore why is she out of all places at the HEAD of the table? The most important spot.

      @𝕽𝖔𝖈𝖐𝖊𝖙 𝕬𝖓𝖉𝖗𝖆𝖉𝖊 Except he does, though he never explained...
      Hell, it's not even the books, the IMMEDIATE start of the timeline and this theory have major inaccuracies/contradictions.
      One:
      The Bite of 83 was not the "Multiple Simultaneous Springlock Failures" mentioned. It never involved springlocks failing, and the two events are 2 years apart.
      Two:
      Scott himself stated years ago that Mrs Afton plays NO major role in the events of the series. Unless Steel Wool outright states/confirms otherwise, this is the Word of God. Her current role is simply "The Mother"...

    While I have never played a FNAF game (Except for Delivery Service, which I played for a week or two) the lore has always been what kept me interested. Watching these four parts, even though some of it might be more fan fiction than fact, it makes me appreciate the level of detail, even if obscure and nonsensical, that was put into the story. But most of all, it makes me so happy that there is someone like MatPat who can stich it together and form a coherent narrative, cause I would never have been able to figure all of that out on my own. XD

    The biggest issue i can see with this theory is age. If Clara is anywhere near William's age, then she'd be EXTREMELY old by 2035, like barely able to walk old (at lease based on William being a little boy in the 1930s). She'd be too old for what she's supposedly doing

    This feels like an elaborate plan set in place by Scott so that it would fit better into the movie, it just seems too on the nose *honk*. It would be perfect way to incorporate the theorist into the movie, the one in charge of assembling this game thus far. From Clara Afton being the villain and Mary Stuart Masterson playing the "Female Villain" and hints that Blumhouse would implement a new character (as said at 22:33)
