Exicted that we have a continuation of the story of the Pizzaplex.
With that in mind I am hoping to see an influx of Glamrock animatronics and even MORE Vanny pics rolling in.
The artists are playing the games, consuming the material to give us all that sweet sweet FNAF art.

I want more Chica and more Vanny, thanks!

What are your thoughts about the game guys...I mean it's just day 1 for now but we can discuss it a little.
It looks incredible so far!

Gonna watch a lets play before buying it with a discount in the future but I guess Markplier is busy on Korea or something?

It's not like I never bought games from the series, bought the first four games but never got far and just watched it on youtube lol. It's not that I get too scared and/or I am bad at horror games, completed a lot of Silent Hill and Resident Evil games but dunno, just can't "git gud" with Scott games...

Saw some spoilers searching for a lets play but I am hyped for arts of Glam Bonnie, I missed him watching Security Breach videos...

Dawko & 8-Bit Riyan are good Horror YTber picks. There's also ManlyBadassHero.
I'm doing my own playthrough though. Seeing how it is for myself.

Roxy is the real MVP

Thanks for the suggestions Closet but it seems Markplier is playing the game so gonna follow with him haha...

Spoilers - I want to cuddle/rail Ruined Roxanne cuz she's so damn cute, but I have to say as cool as some things are there are a lot of things that need explaining, I know the books are a thing but there are hell of a lot of things to explain

Other then that I hope people enjoy the experience of Ruin and it's lights a fire under SWS to release more DLC/Games

SPOILER WARNING: comment may hint character personality in RUIN
She really is! Fans have always made a WHAT IF! Scenario if the other animatronics were the protector and we finally got a small sliver of that confirmation.
I thought Roxanne was a little too *feral* and narcissistic, but because of RUIN we actually realize that she's very sweet.Perhaps, due to not knowing too much about the animatronics we jumped to conclusions based on what we've only seen.
But Roxanne really is the MVP. I've come to a assumption that Roxanne is just a rowdy kind of girl that punches first and asks questions later.
But under that she's kind and understanding. She has a temper problem, but it's not as severe as Monty Gator
Who was hella relentless

I dislike certain lore aspects about this game though. I don't understand them because I never read the books.
This is a warning for future FNAF FANS that Steel Whool seems to be using pieces of the books to create their games. If you don't read them
RUIN becomes a little more confusing. DAWKO's lore videos don't really help me understand because Even if he gives his theories or even THE GAME THEORISTS.
I still don't get it.

Like....who is the MIMIC? What book.....fuck me.

I have never played a Five Nights at Freddy's game, and I don't plan to, but it really bothers me when games put story and lore in some other document instead of in the damn game. Video games are a narrative medium, and shouldn't have to rely on other formats for storytelling. (One of my big problems with Breath of the Wild is how narratively barren it is, and it's very frustrating when people say "no, you have to read the art book!" and such.)

You guys have it easy...at least you guys can go and buy the book and read it now.

There were Japanese game series that had books with lore only available in japan...and ofc only in Japanese, also the internet wasn't like it is today but little by little we now have wikis with translation of these novel or lore books related to Japanese games.

Still...yeah I agree that sucks that you need info from outside the games and after Sister Location the lore of FNAF was getting a little bit bloated and Scott simply cannot just say "the answer to that is X" wanting it to be vague for the vibe but also to be "easier" to retcon stuff but that stuff with Mimic I think its one of the more obvious one for now.

Let's be honest FNAF has Game Theory eating good

Burntrap from the end of security breach is the same character. Basically in the 6th book its explained that the mimic is just an alternate endo model that can fulfill multiple roles it is taught, hence being w "mimic"

Someone beat it up and it also started copying afton, then after the events of SB it started copying Gregory who it recognized as a greater threat.
