Ever since the release of the Security Breach in 2021 and it's DLC (RUIN) and the release of my Death Of Mascot Horror duology albums last year, I've said for myself to not only leave the franchise (and pretty much Mascot Horror) forever but also never EVER mention Five Nights At Freddy's by name or reference or inspiration or partake any conversation related to the franchise again. And I've stuck by that rule to this day. To put it simply, with the destruction and bastardization of the Five Nights At Freddy's lore, toxicity of the fanbase that involves underaged children that treats the series like a religion but not a video game (and shouldn't be on the internet to begin with), and the transition from horror to utterly PG-Rated & Mediocrity. Five Nights At Freddy's (and mascot horror as a whole) is completely and utterly dead to me.
Am I bitter over what the series has become? Yes. Am I sad over what the series has become? Yes. Am I going back? No, never again.
(Isn't this a "semi-remake" or some sort of "follow-up" of the Death Of Mascot Horror duology? Eh, I guess so.)
Thus, welcome back to the "Lost Memories Of Freddy's" series. A series of 1 hour albums (NO ANALOG HORROR TAPES THANKS..no offense intended) that consist of tracks that sample familiar sound effects and ambients and songs from the series, stripped of their energy and spirit to the point that they are all ghosts of their former selves. The sounds that the audio provide were put together to symbolize my feelings (and other former fans feelings) on how FNAF has become a hollow shell of it's former self.
Each installment will be created and released on the 10th anniversary of each game in the ScottGames era, which to me is the golden era of the Freddy's series. No pun intended.
Today, The spirit of Five Nights At Freddy's no longer lives on. These characters' places in our hearts no longer shine like they did all those years ago. Nowadays, 10 years later, I feel as though some fans are very delusional. The lore and universe is nothing but broken, depressing, predictable, and something I myself can't even call "written". And the franchise is (I personally feel like) sailing towards a grim future.
10 years later, and now there is nothing left in this series to enjoy. As harsh as that may sound to you, it's unfortunately the truth. The past (aswell as our youth) is over, behind us, and can never be relived.

Five Nights At Freddy's 2 (November 11th, 2014)
--------------------
Here, we not only lose our doors, but also spend five more nights with not 4 but 11 animatronics that involves the original four from the first game (or so we were led to believe) and new and shinier and colorful versions of them (one of them involving Chica becoming the most unfortunate R34 subject for years to come |:( so there's that too).
Defending ourselves with nothing but a spare empty Freddy head, flashlight, and winding a music box to keep from waking a sleeping toddler in what would be the most chaotic installment of the original era.
This second game was the first of many prequels in the series as we find out it took place in 1987, and while we sorta got a hint at the end of night 6 about the bite of '87, we still saw the expansion of the lore, alongside the death minigames and the introduction of those 8-bit ATARI 2600 styled minigames & cutscenes we're all familiar with.
This was when the fanbase really started to expand and become a real online phenomenon. This game was also the installment that helped my 11 year old self get invested back in 2015, 2 months before 4 released in fact, Piemations' 5AM At Freddy's 2 was the exact animation I saw that made me sell my soul to the series. The outside world hardly knew about it, but we did! And that's why we would soon see the opening gates of Five Nights At Treasure Island and nearly other hundred thousands of fangames to follow!!!
That was when we we're in it for the long run, and we almost didn't know it. So with that being said, that is what the mood for Part 2 becomes slightly different than Part 1. Whereas Part 1 was a mourning for the happier times, Part 2 features memories here that feel fluid and nostalgic. Almost as if the spirits of the past are reminiscing like we are.
