Five Nights at Freddy’s has pretty expansive lore, but it can be hard to understand what’s really going on. Where and what characters like William Afton, Henry Emily, Charlie Emily, Michael Afton, Elizabeth Afton, the Crying Child, Gregory, Vanessa, Cassie, and others are doing can be difficult to figure out if you have to sort through the lore from every single FNAF game. So, join me as I explain just what is going on in the FNAF timeline

What is your favorite part of the Five Nights at Freddy's lore?
Website has an error 😢
Pizza Sim and UNC
@Josh651Pro it should be working now!
Mine was the Nazi theory
@@_TheKillerEonix_the what now?
"Because no one in the Afton family can stay dead for more than 2 minutes"
Wow. One of them managed to stay dead that long? That's a new record
I know right XD
i love how like every single fnaf channel is making a full timeline video, i love hearing everybody's takes on the franchise
Tis prime time it seems XD
We need a ranking of all those timelines
Also, imagine if Scoot has actually already revealed the entire lore of fnaf, under some little know alt account on youtube, but we just don't know it 😅
And none of them completely match. :D
@@noobhabs5884That would require Scott to have actually a final storyline.
@@RFDN0 which I believe will be released on the 4th of Neverary
I respect you for making a timeline that is only 28 minutes long.
Nice XD
LMAO! Matpats fnaf timelone could never😂😂😂
Not hating on him btw.
You don’t want to enjoy an 8:47:38 video that gives a short introduction to fnaf?
@@leoyamauchi5992I know I did! Twice!
It’s always fun to see what the fnaf theorists come up with their timelines based on their knowledge
Yeah!
Absolutely, i love when people give their own 5 cents with their own assumptions!
I preferred this timeline to MatPat's to be honest. It was easier to follow (dates on screen at all times was a big help) and ID has a narrative that fits a lot more cleanly, particularly the first 6 games.
I think she has absolutely nailed the afton family appearances, motivations and actions with regards to the who is the player character on shift in each game and what was happening in the mini games such as midnight motorist.
Bro sounds like a menace
@@therealslimsagey5561matpats timeline is old now compared to new ones since it has less information and lore that wasn't uncovered before
This is the only timeline I’ve seen that gives a satisfying answer to the shadow animatronics, and overall just feels like a very logical order of events. I think things inevitably get messy around Security Breach and Ruin for any timeline, but hopefully Help Wanted 2 will help all of us piece more of that together.
Thanks! And yeah, that sums up the HW onward situation well lol
Toy ain't Spring Bonnie 🗿
Spoiler alert: It didn't. 😂
@@IDsFantasythanks again for replying on my comment about hurricane’s pronunciation ( I hate it too)
Yeahh this one time line makes so much sense like cc becoming shadow Freddy that makes sense why he helps William cuz he is his father and he don't know that he did those nightmares and helped him destroy the animaltronics cuz he was afraid of them that just makes so much sense the answer we have been looking for was right in front of us and we just couldn't see it
Kudos to you ID for making this so grounded, short, and easy to understand, which isn't a small feat! You've been doing such a wonderful job, keep it up! :)
Thank you!
@@IDsFantasy Hey no problem. Its well deserved!
Really is
Lol the first part is easy to understand and grounded but the last parts devolve into madness I can imagine iD with a massive corkboard
@Lumberjack_king while yes I kind of agree, I feel as if it's unfair to dismiss any theories in the post help wanted Era, as we don't just know anything really.
I am a die hard Game Theory fan, but I gotta say... your timeline makes more sense. I'm so beyond impressed! Also making a concise FNAF explanation is no easy task and this was perfect! Def my go-to video for newbies now!
Thank you! I'm happy to hear it :D
well game theory hasnt made an updated one and matt himself said he wasn’t super sure about it
Congrats for making a full timeline!
While I dont always agree with your theorys, I really do appreciate, how every single one of them is undeniably, well argumented, well presented and consistent with the rest of theorys, that you have already made.
Its also, simply nice to see a more unique and original approach to certain parts or events of the story, and not just the exact same thing, that others had already said.
Thank you!!!
Yes the reason I sub in the first place. Someone else has reslly gone downhill in my opinion, ID's like a breath of fresh air.
@@Tortuga2223a Matpat?
@@Swaxol yeah. I love the guy and the nostalgia is apparent, I just think he might be burned out and rightfully so. Idk. He might feel obligated too but if the guy starts losing his evidence I just can't help but think he should move on.
I mean they're alot cool and great people, like here, putting together early Game Theory quality work. Gotta respect it.
Yes I agree
I still dont understand how Cassie was so naive. Helpy literally talked to him when Helpie is just in her head. Gregory shouldn't know what it says through a radio... 😭
Yeah 😅
Got a bit confused in the security breach portion, but other than that little wrinkle, this was great! It's easy to understand, covers some admittedly confusing parts of the lore pretty well and all in only about half an hour! Great work! :)
Fair. The SB portion is a bit convoluted since it added a LOT of stuff, but I'm glad you liked the timeline!
I definitely like your take on things. The only thing that sticks with me is that I cannot believe that a mask had enough delicacy and leverage to drill through the front of Cassie's skull, slip its way through her brain without damaging anything, and implant a transponder in the back of her brain before exiting safely. Plus, Helpi didn't say he was installing one. He said he was **pairing** with one. Cassie's transponder had to already be there, probably put in when she was in the Daycare as a smaller child.
Well, she says "ow" and flinches heavily. It doesn't have to have been implanted into her occipital lobe specifically, just communicate with it. But that is an interesting thing to think about
I would wager it was through the area of the eyes, in a very quick jab from a needle of some kind in a pathway similar to what ......they used to do per....lobotomy and that makes the mask even more horrifying.
@@IDsFantasy The ow was likely an EM pulse to wake up the chip. I just cannot see the mask having enough leverage and delicacy. Skull bones, even in a kid, are tough.
@@Thinkafurr If she were strapped down and had her eyes held open, maybe. There's just too much biology in the way for the mask to have the leverage needed to get something inside.
@@Metalkattmost likely just a silly mis-hap in the writing. I’m sure it does implant it but we should just ignore exactly how it does anatomically since it doesn’t rly make sense lol
Good stuff! Some things from GT I prefer, but a lot of good stuff here too. I particularly like how you did what GT didn't/couldn't with having both Mike and Will active at the same time and balancing it so the murders and Mike's hunt could happen simultaneously.
Thanks!
This is my favorite timeline video I've seen so far! I adore your videos you take some of the most confusing elements of the franchise and make it so digestible and straight forward.
I'm glad to hear it!
I always love fnaf timeline videos. They're always a fun ride to see the different ways evidence can be interpreted. Amazing video.
Thank you!
Idk if I’ve seen anyone else suggest that “remember what you saw” could be Charlie/puppet mini game. I love layering that on top of midnight motorist. It makes sense that the relationship between CC and Mike would change after CC witnessed the death of a friend/peer. I really like this read on the evidence we have
What an awesome timeline! I'm glad you left out the parts that are still a bit too obscure and unknown rather than trying to shoehorn them into some place that they kinda fit. We will never have every answer and that's kinda the point bc if we did then this would be no fun!
Yep! And thank you
Me and the bois enjoying this video before Scott makes it outdated :(
We should have about a month lol
I'd never considered it before but I actually really like the implied connection drawn between the multiple endings of Security Breach and Dittophobia. That's a very interesting theory
Thanks!
It's insane how huge this franchise has gotten since the first game.
Yeah XD
This is going to be my new head canon, I really like the order and interpretation of events. Also, very well explained and resumed in only 28 minutes, great job.
Thank you!!! I'm glad you like it :D
While I think i might lean towards it being Henry, i don't fully deny the thought of William being behind the Puppet as per the "I am the fearful reflection of what YOU have created", and probably why Matpat considered it William's idea in his timeline, also would you consider the Puppet started at the Diner or Fazbear's?
Aside from still feeling CC was bitten before Charlie (and I have seen your previous Midnight Motorist vid), I still hesitate on Puppet driving his fears. Scott even said Nightmarionne wasn't canon - why BB was, I've no idea. And while the Nightmares' stomach teeth resemble 8-bit Baby opening, that scooping's placement still muddles this.
The June 26th paper detailed 2 children, implying the other 3 might've been later.
Also, while I still find some issues with Molten MCI, I still don't place Mike's SL journey before FNAF 2.
Also, while I don't doubt the kids surviving post FNAF 6, I still hesitate on the Vanessa and Gregbot stuff, sometimes.
Ooftroop did an interesting look into MXES and how it wouldn't be the Entity.
Honestly, I think a pillow of The Fourth Closet would probably be a better thing to vent your rage upon instead of plush you - it's too cute to abuse...
Ooo good point on the fearful reflection thing, though I always interpreted that as him being a reflection of the Puppet post possession, which William did through Charlie's death
But hey, you definitely don't have to agree with me on any of that.
And fair for the plushie lol
Balloon Boy being a canon nightmare might be because Balloon Boy seems to have been a mechanical replacement for the Crying Child, with him having a similar behavior of hiding under the tables while other people are working. As such he would have been significant for Mike. It could also indicate we’re seeing two sets of nightmares, one set being CC’s where Plushtrap is present and the other being Mike’s where BB is. In both cases this one innocuous animatronic acts as a hope spot, with CC hoping William will go easy on him and Mike hoping CC will forgive him.
This is good, timeline videos between different yt channels are getting shorter and shorter which is previously thought to be impossible. Helps the community compare different interpretations of the timeline and agrees with ones that are consistent throughout different yt videos
Yep!
I'll be entirely honest here. When you started talking about robotic humans like Vanessa and Gregory, I SCREAMED.
If the person who built the robots could actually make realistic robots that trick others into thinking they are human, why the HELL didn't Fazbear Entertainment find and hire them? Then again, they could be the same person that gave the Pathfinding chips for Help Wanted.
In the books, the indie dev gets killed by a robot person he thought was his wife and had two robot kid children so
Man, this is what I absolutely love about the FNAF universe and all the combined theorists out there.
After watching GiBi's Good Idea Bad Idea's ALMOST 9 HOUR LONG FNAF lore vid- the conclusions he comes to differ day and night from this one.
I love it, we're all looking at the same data and there's so many vast, diverse opinions, passion, hard work and soul put into each... I wonder if another franchise exists that has this much sheer love from fans.
Yep! It's very cool
After all the different timelines that have release in the last year, I personally consider this one to be the best and most fitting to me
You did a great job on this video, congratulations on managing to do a coherent timeline without losing your sanity like other theorists (definitely not matpat)
Thank you XD
@@IDsFantasy thank you for the great videos, keep up the hard work!
My favorite part of fanf lore is the confusion and the little details 😁
Valid lol
I think this is one of the most concise, solid FNAF timelines I’ve watched in a while. A lot of things that are normally loose ends were answered neatly, and I really like that. Good work, ID, especially getting everything in such a short video!
Thank you!
This is by far one of the best and most cohesive timelines I’ve seen. It displays information in a digestible way and I love the explanation for the shadow animatronics and your perception of midnight moderist. Along with this the perception of security breach makes a really good amount of sense (for how absolutely chaotic that lore is). Incredible job as always!!
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it
Love how you explained the shadow animatronics! Question though, if CC was the one William inflicted those nightmare hallucinations on, then what about Mike's nightmare drawings in the logbook? Like you mentioned, there's also those inverted phone guy audio bits in FNAF4, so is it alright to assume that both of them were experimented on?
Thanks!
I think that FNAF 4 is Mike experiencing CC's memories while being haunted by him, mixed in with bits of Mike's experiences!
Love hearing different theories on this crazy lore. Thanks ID you're one of the greats!
Thank you!
This must have taken so much time to piece together. Great work! This was an awesome timeline explanation and it is true that part of the fun of FNaF is attempting to piece together the lore and how the puzzle pieces might fit together.
This is the timeline I've been waiting for since I became invested in this franchises story. And it's phenomenal. Nothing here feels extraneous or out of place. Glitchtrap isn't sidelined or ignored due to the book debate. And most importantly it avoids the notion of certain events erasing prior events. The implications of the games being in universe canon or the indie game developer "getting events wrong" being used to smooth over certain theories always bugged me, feeling like dream theory in way diminishing the events of the original series of games. Steelwool or Scott wouldn't make that mistake again. Incredible theory and video, presented perfectly not feeling too narratively extrapolated while not being a PowerPoint explaining dots on a line. Truly awesome video :D
Thank you!
Personally I like the idea that it was Micheal Afton that was tortured with the nightmare animatronics, primarily because I think it's more narratively satisfying when he finally turns on his father.
Fair
The full timeline in only one video :0, needless to say I'm impressed, I really love the straight forward narrative using what we already know from the games, great video like always :^D. Love your videos
Thank you! And here's hoping XD
I have one problem so far, I don't think W. Afton is controlling Shadow Freddy by any means
I think Shadow Freddy is calling the animatronics to defeat their murderer by showing them where he is, unfortunately, he can see him because he's not an actual animatronic but the real animatronics cannot because it's blocked by their programming.
that's what I believe at least, and I have no real problem with your interpretation.
That's a fair theory. I just think the line of Henry saying William lured the spirits to the room again implies William was in control
@@IDsFantasyunderstandable
It is unspeakably silly to me that so many things can create agony, but Henry dying for nothing and his daughter still being possessed not making some of the most powerful, enraged agony of all time is so hard to believe imo. Maybe it'll happen in the future but Henry ,who is responsible for the entire franchise, being given an ending like that makes no sense given that even the most minute characters can possess things in this franchise
He could be in the Blob perhaps. Might be why it's so upset at William specifically
I’ll be completely honest I never truly understood the entirety of the lore until I watched you explain it, so thank you! You’ve made it far easier to understand the lore and I appreciate the time you’ve put into the whole timeline!
No problem! Glad I could help
Love how this timeline wasn’t so overly confusing for new fans to the franchise! It was very cohesive to understand and hopefully newcomers from the movie has greater knowledge of the lore.
Awesome video. Glad everything was contained under 30 minutes!
Thanks! Glad to hear
15:48 I always kinda saw the happiest day thing as the Puppet trying to give the spirits peace but not necessarily make them move on. Like the Puppet helped them resolve the trauma of their deaths but didn’t necessarily make them move on. Like, the Puppet went “here’s some therapy, whatcha gonna do”
Valid! I do think that's very possible
My head cannon with Vanessa/Vanny is that she has split personalities due to the Glitchtrap interference. That instead of taking over Vanessa’s mind it basically created a new one inside of it. That’s why Vanessa would put you in the security office and immediately try and attack you as Vanny, because Vanessa genuinely does want to help you and doesn’t know about Vanny. And the ending where she looks at herself could of been a manifestation of her original personality seeing the Vanny personality
While I disagree, you're absolutely valid for having your own take
Wow, it's amazing how fast some of these FNAF channels are blowing up.
Super proud of you ID's Fantasy!
Thank you!
This is far and away the best time line I have heard. Feels like less things are forced into trying to fit where they don't, and no speculation about the distant past.
I'm glad you like it!
It doesn't have to be logical though
Same rules don't apply from our reality
I'm new to your channel after watching many of your shorts and I'm already loving the content so so much!
You're very efficient with your words and remain very clear constantly, I also happen to find myself mostly aligned with your rationale which I don't always get in other channels.
I won't stop watching other channels obviously, this franchise thrives with more perspectives as we well know, but I really like your approach, your phrasing, your insights and style.
And I love the background music, it's on every video but I never get tired of it hahaha
This was so awesome to watch and so cohesive! I laughed a lot at some parts and wrote things down that I wanted to remember. This was very clear and easy to follow along to :D Thank you for making it, it was a lot of fun to watch!
No problem! I'm glad you enjoyed it
I love your FNAF theorys! With MatPat they always just seem… a little too over the top and… well he skips over a few important details
I'm glad you like them!
Your theories are always great! Thank you for making these awesome videos!!!
Thank YOU for watching!
and thank you for the incredible explanation. Everything is making a ton on sense now, I love how you organized it! The way you don’t touch the confusing parts, but explain why at the end makes so much sense! Thanks again Ids! And keep being awesome!!!
hey i love your videos! im very excited to see your take on the franchise's story!! you're definitely my favorite theorist currently making fnaf theories rn. i hope you keep having as much fun making these as i am having fun experiencing them!
Thank you! I hope so to :D
That's a really great timeline, you have some really interesting takes on the lore of this series. Amazing video, it looks like you put a lot of work in it, so congrats on putting this lore together!
Thank you!
This IP has the most complicated lore I have ever tried to understand and I love it
Nice XD
thank you for the correct pronunciation of hurricane UT, i understand why people get it wrong but it's nice to to see someone get it right
No problem :D
really enjoyed your take on FNAF timeline, it also feels you had fun writing the script for the video, some lines were hilarious, love your sense of humor x) thank you and congrats on this momentous work!
Thank YOU for watching!
Good job ID! Think you did a great job explaining these events to the best of your ability and I really like the way you explain the earlier parts of this franchise. You may have my favorite interpretation of the order of events for the first 6 games and I like the way you logically stitch them together with narrative coherence even if there are still a few holes. Can't say I'm as on board for the more recent games but ever since Help Wanted I just haven't been a fan of the direction of the story and the reliance on old characters serving new purposes for no reason when they could just be new characters and the random insertion of new information into earlier parts of the timeline where we had never heard of them before. Thats more of just a gripe I have with modern FNAF though. Nevertheless, an another insightful video and I hope to see your plushie funded real soon! Keep up the good work ID!
Thank you!!!
I don't think I agree with everything, but this is the best, most complete story of FNAF I've heard (and with the fewest number of frustrating assumptions and holes).
I still really love the 'Midnight Motorist' interpretation, which cleanly slots characters in, and makes a lot of sense out of some issues we've had with the story thus far (I especially like Michael being the TV watcher, and the explanation for the footsteps).
Additionally, the Elizabot Vannessa and Vanny split is great, and really cleanly handles both characters and their motivations (and keeps Elizabeth around, which I like. I don't know why people want all the Aftons to be gone, when it's the only thing giving me hope that this story will, at some point, come to a satisfying end and not continue forever). This also tracks very nicely with what I think the movie was trying to tell us about Vanessa; that is, that she is Elizabeth in some capacity (most likely as a robot) (also, the actress is Elizabeth Lail, and Vanessa is Williams daughter, so I just don't think that can be a coincidence).
If I can say anything about ID's theories, it's that they are often very cleanly built and satisfying in what they tell us. I may not agree with all of them, but she is by far my favorite theorist in the community right now. It's nice to have someone who makes me feel like we have a bit more continuity in this franchise (and without too many holes) than I usually think, and who gives me hope that this story isn't getting as out of hand as it feels sometimes (I've been worried recently, but I still think Scott's got it, especially after watching the movie, and interpreting it the way I did).
Thank you! That means a lot to hear
Just wanted to leave some impressions down here:
1: William looks f*cking insane in the visual novel, like seriously, who would ever trust ANYTHING to that guy? Never mind dangerous equipment and children XD.
2: Funny how despite his ample presence in game and in lore, we never really learn much from Phone Guy. Apparently he worked for fazbear entertainment for a long while, but wasn´t around during the early days of Fredbear´s family diner judging by how he wasn´t sure about the name in FNAF 2. And that´s it. We never even learn his fate beyond "attacked by Golden Freddy", was he stuffed in a suit? Was he ever found? You gotta feel sorry for the guy, it´s easy to forget children weren´t the only victims of WIll´s rampage, thanks to him at least 4 guys got killed by angry animatronics across the series (that we know of).
3: Phone Dude is definitely a stoner, it´s the only reason I can come up with as to why he thought making a horror attraction out of a real life tragedy was a good idea.
4: Judging by baby´s dialogue in that game, Henry promised them all children... Yup... But hey, it worked and no one innocent was harmed.
5: At this point, Fazbear Entertainment is just the Weiland Yutani of killer robots.
Yeah lol
Yep, and he's my favorite character. Somehow despite how little info we get he's one of the most characterized pvdkfvd
Pfft wouldn't be surprised
Yep
XD
This is such a fascinating take on the timeline! I can tell you put a lot of effort into this. It definitely fills in some confusing blanks i noticed from other fnaf theory channels. Keep up the good work!
Thanks! Will do :D
I love that someone FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGED the Bite Of '87, like THE ACTUAL one. You would be surprised on how many people in the fandom actually believe that the meme is true
Dang 😅
Henry Emily is wearing a light yellow shirt and is blonde... could he not be the one who said "You're broken. I can put you back together."? He is an engineer after all who is proficient in AI robots. So it would make sense if Henry Emily fixed Crying Child by "putting him back together" then it would mean, Gregory is Crying Child and Freddy's line in Security Breach "I feel you are broken" would confirm that Gregory is 100% Crying Child. Freddy feels that Gregory is either still broken or became broken due to not being worked on as much anymore by Henry seeing as he ran away which is why he is homeless in one of the endings...
I personally doubt it for the first instance of the line since he seems largely irrelevant for most of the story but who knows!
I like basically everything in here, still dont think the cc is the midnight motorist kid and Gregory be a robot could easily work with him just be possed but everything else fit perfectly. This timeline is everything you want in a timeline video, its straight forward, doesn't go on tangents, and is consistent all the way through, Great job ID.
Thank you!
This is honestly my favorite full time line theory so far! It makes so much sense to me!
Thank you!!! I'm glad you like it
Awesome! Been waiting for a while to see your take on the fnaf timeline,and it's awesome! (The mimic thing actually kinda makes sense now)
Gonna be honest
I'm not the biggest fan of the whole robot people thing. Though I see it and understand. I get the point.
Same for Henry's fire failing. It feels a bit lacking. But the way you explained it all works. It fits and seems satisfying.
The big thing is does it work for a good story?
And I find this one does.
Bravo to one of the best next gen FNAF theorists!
Thank you!
The day I've been waiting for has arrived
This shall be amazing
Heck yeah!
This was great! Good job on summarizing this behemoth of a story.
Man I loved hearing this out loud! Your voice is so nice for this kind of thing and the timeline you've created is very succinct in a way thats easy to process :D
Glad to hear it! Thanks for helping proofread it :D
@@IDsFantasy yeah anytime :D
This is by far the best timeline video I’ve ever seen someone do, great job👍
Thank you!
I love this video. The timeline fits really well and it’s now my favorite take lol can’t wait to see Matt Pats reaction to this one!
Thank you!
Man, seing your and your channel's growth over the last year has been great! Keep up the great work. I wish you a wonderful day from Germany
Thank you! I hope you have a good day as well
i really adore almost every piece of this theory, and i love how you explain things! i only am partial to princess quest as the true ending of security breach, but the way you tell stories is incredibly easy for me understand and satisfying considering how many sources you just synthesized 🥰
I'm glad you liked it!
The "intact puppet" of FNaF 3 always struck me as weird. I always thought that it's just a hallucination as it doesn't seem to properly move and instead just appears on Cam 8 where it doesn't have any visible strings attached to it, the lighting on it also doesn't really match the environment, and it just T-poses, never appearing on any other camera. Yet the fantom puppet in its "jumpscare" (read: staredown) looks like all other fantoms, so the real look of the Cam 8 puppet seems to be deliberate, but why? Also funny how you can see the puppet mask on the wall on Cam 8, -but it has no tear streaks so it's not the same puppet- edit: scrap that, after a closer look it does have tear streaks
It's very interesting
I have never seen anybody acknowledge the shadow animantronics
Well now you have :D
this is my favorite fnaf timeline by far, the others felt lacking in many departments, though I still think the true ending of security breach is a little more confusin than to be explained, ur timeline is still the best of heard! good job :)
Thanks!
A lot of fans and even a lot of theorycrafters rag on the characters for acting illogically with regards to the supernatural side of things but the way you've lined it out makes it sound a lot more like the 'dangerously groping in the dark' approach that real people would default to. Nice touch.
Yeah, to me it makes sense that like. These guys may have more information than we do, but they had to figure it out through trial and error themselves. Thanks!
This by far makes the most sense out of fnaf time-lines, and the easiest to follow. Love your content.
I'm glad!
Okay this is one of the best full timelines
Sounds great and works perfect
Thank you!
This was super interesting and made me conceptualize the whole story in my head, AND I now feel very confident in my fnaf knowledge. Thanks infinitely, ID!
The algorithm is really just on your side. You just showed up like 2 weeks ago in my recommended and I'm all for it!! Nice work!!
Thank you!
I’m so glad you also think Charlie died before CC. While I do like a lot of the timeline videos that have “recently” come out, I honestly really don’t like how they make Afton seem…sympathetic? by saying he basically just went mad with grief over the death of CC.
I like the idea much more (and honestly find it more disturbing lol) that he killed Charlie and immediately came home to be dad to CC, Michael and Elizabeth and that the reason he wasn’t suspected by the public was because they all saw him as a dad who loved his kids and they didn’t believe he could murder a kid, especially his partner and friend’s child.
I paused about five minutes in to write this comment so you may address what’s in my comment but amazing video as always so far lol :)
Yeah, sympathetic villains are a dime a dozen these days, but William has always been especially interesting to me in how to most people he seemed like a perfectly normal, friendly guy until the Missing Children Incident. Heck, in the books people suspected HENRY before they suspected William some of the time.
Thanks XD
@@IDsFantasyI finished the video and I agreed with most of it, but something I disagree with/should point out is that the Funtimes may have not been Afton’s first murder robots. About 6 years ago MatPat horrified a 14 year old me with his “FNAF, we were wrong about the Bite” video. The gist of it was basically going over how strong the animatronic that killed CC would have had to have been and compared that to how strong irl animatronics generally are, and concluded that it was built with the intention to kill but it was an accident that it killed CC instead of some other kid.
The franchise isn’t exactly realistic and real science can’t really be applied to it xD but I think MatPat and that video really really disturbing me is the reason why I’ve dug my heels in about Afton being a murderer before CC died for so long lmao.
There's a lot about the mimic I didn't know before, it and other factors really helped me clear out some continuity issues I had between Pizza Sim, Help Wanted, and Security Breach. Thanks for sharing your findings!
No problem!
This is just a masterpiece. I have watched countless hours of fnaf timelines, over 15h of videos by now, and this one is the one that makes more sense AND more understandable by the part of security breach plays in. Thank you for making this. Its just clear, quick and consistent (specially of you see the explanation videos wich i have seen and they are amazingly argumented). Your view on the story is beautiful
Thank you!!! I appreciate hearing that :D
Give ID a standing ovation all, all this is probably the most concise satisfying version of the Story I've seen assembled thus far. Your reasoning for the comics from RUIN was brilliant *chef's kiss*
Thank you!
Didn’t even expect this right now, a surprise to be sure but a welcome one
:D
A fnaf timeline in 30 minutes? This I gotta see
Hope you like it!
@@IDsFantasy it was really good! There are some points that I'm kinda iffy on personally, but everything else made a good amount of sense.
Glad it wasn't a mult-part series over the course of several months lol
This is literally the fourth timeline video I’ve seen today, and seeing your take on it is like Christmas!
Keep going sweetie, you’re doing amazing 🥹❤
Thank you!
Very Solid Fnaf Theory Timeline And It Makes So Much Sense!,The Video Ain't An Hour Long The Timeline Is Consistant,Certain Events I Couldn't Figure Out Or Make Any Sense Of You Made It Make Sense! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
I Love It!
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you like it
Great video as always! You have some pretty interesting ideas on the timeline, not really ones I see very often, but it's cool seeing a timeline that includes not widely accepted but still plausible takes. Tho I heavily disagree with your take on Midnight Motorist and I have strong feelings about CC being the first death lol...
Nice timeline! I personally disagree with the order of some events but it's nice to see someone make sense of such complicated lore! I love FNAF:SB, but I can't deny that the worst part of it is the story and compounded on top of eight other games, that makes the story of the entire series even more complicated. You inspired me to do my own theory video on Glamrock Freddy, and it should be out today! It's nice to see fans like you helping ease newcomers into the series!
Thank you! And I hope your video does well
great video! videos like this make me think about how much i like the story of the first 7 games and think the steelwool lore is so weird. you explained it about as well as it could be explained!
Thanks!
Thank you for making this. I've always needed help understanding, and It's finally starting to make sense to me lol
Glad I could help!
I disagree with some stuff but good timeline 👍
Valid. Thanks!
This is honestly a really solid interpretation of the FNAF games with stuff from the books. I like it
I'm glad!
Despite me being an old fan, this helped explain alot of things like shadow bonnie and midnight motorist, thanks 😭
No problem!
One of the best timeline theories i've seen, specially I really like the takes you have on the security breach part of the timeline
Great video!
Thank you!
"IT CAME IT FINALLY CAME... THE BIG ONE" 🤩 *cracks a Fizzy Faz*
Heck yeah XD
I cried when Doug said it's running time! and then he runs all over Sparky diner. But hey! That's just a joke a joke! theory thanks for laughing
Lol
Honestly I agree with Wendigoon’s placement of Sister Location as right before Pizzeria Sim, as the Toys and Funtimes having parts from the original animatronics gives a more solid explanation for why they’re sentient, especially Molten Freddy after Elizabeth is removed. That does also mean that Mike isn’t a rotting corpse for most of the story, but I don’t think that changes too much for that part of the timeline.
It also removes the need to explain it with “maybe Afton did more off-screen killings we never heard about”.
Omfg I absolutely love your interpretation of the beginning of this timeline and this is why I always watch timeline videos
i've been a fan since 2017 and i still cant explain the story of fnaf to anyone!🤣
Dang lol
I have never once played FNAF nor do I have any interest in doing so since it's release in 2015, but watching people break it down has always been a treat, phenomenal video!
Thank you!
Play it, it’s fun!
@@TheCosmosAwaits Not my cup of tea honestly! It's one of those games I like watching other people play or talk about instead though (:
You have some very interesting takes! I'm excited to see reactions to your timeline from Mat, Tom, and maybe John!
Thanks! It would be cool to see them react, though idk if they will
i love your videos for how clear, short, and concise they are ,, really helps understanding this lore-crazed game 🙏🙏🙏
Thank you! I'm glad :D
