@Skyn246@WrightRight4@meatsweatmcgee That still isn't accounting for the debunkng, even if that was the intent that'd still count as a retcon by now, but it definetely isn't because why would anyone in 2015 make a massive reach like that when the phone calls and 100 other things definitively pointed to dream theory?
@WrightRight4@Skyn246@meatsweatmcgee Even if it wasn't debunked, if that was actually his intent why would he not add literally ANYTHING to justify it? Were players supposed to read his mind?
This why FNaF theories suck now, all it is is mental gymnastics to justify people's headcanons
@WrightRight4@Skyn246@meatsweatmcgee The brother being the protagonist of FNaF1 is not supported anywhere in the original games and is now officially debunked anyway
@TristanJam53246@meatsweatmcgee There is zero explanation for what the Game Theory livestream teasers meant if you think Dream Theory wasn't the intention when FNaF4 released.

@Sm4rt3rIZ0451@meatsweatmcgee Keep in mind Scott has a history of course correcting and debunking misinterpretations but he let everyone think Afton was back for a good 4 years with zero indication of the Mimic as a concept ever being planned
Even if it was intended that'd abysmal storytelling lol
@Sm4rt3rIZ0451@meatsweatmcgee He definetely *does* retcon stuff though. Bonnie's colour, the gender of the puppet, the entirety of FNaF4 (probably multiple times at this point), the Mimic existing which was definetely always planned and not a panicked solution the to outrage over SB confirming Afton is back
@WhiteTigerFan1 The problem isn't being different the problem is being generic
SotM feels like a worse version of every other modern horror game. FNaF used to actually be different
@WhiteTigerFan1 I mean... barely? Compared to HW1 it felt more like a fast food simulator, it wasn't really trying to be a horror game and only had one real FNaF minigame
Even if we do end up getting more classic-style games I just don't think SotM is a good direction for the main games
@DangervilleTeam@atari@pipeworks It just feels kinda lifeless and rushed compared to the original. The original was so much more cinematic and had better pacing and sound design
