Well, Monty does chew and bite on metal bars in one scene like a tiny dog trying to act tough by biting and shaking a pillow, or blanket (yes, I have owned many small dogs, and they do this a lot.) Ruin Monty is pretty much a Junkyard Guard Dog.
A trend I've been seeing in horror games, that comes through in your live commentary, is that the primary fear people have now in horror games is not the situation or the creature stalking you, but the fear that an annoying sequence or repetitive (usually hard and sort of unfair) chase is about to happen. Truly we are at the peak of horror -- the fear of the mundane.
Great video. Sad to see you didn't enjoy your playthrough of Ruin, still this gameplay was fun to watch. Hope to see more gameplay stuff in the future.
Hot take: fnaf CANT work in free roam, what made the games scary (especially fnaf 1 and 3) is that you dont see the animatronics moving, as if they are statues
There's a reason weeping angels type monsters are so terrifying. The only way to get out is to put yourself in danger, the same thing you used to have to do in the early games
What disappoints me about Daycare is that they tried to make the second half of the gameplay not involve Eclipse at all. We get introduced to a new character that Sun was VERY HEAVILY hinted to know about, and he’s on screen for 20 seconds. And then we deal with Endos and that’s it before we go right back to Monty Golf. Like, what the hell Steelwool?
@ALiteralRottenHusk I understand but those were just random Easter eggs and those characters never had any buildup so it’s better… to an extent They never had any buildup but still potential, not as bad as Vanny and the mimic As long as SW isn’t doing anything else to this series, it’ll be fine
@ALiteralRottenHusk I'd argue it's more akin to what happened to Baby and Michael Afton; they both got their roles diminished and ended in the game immediately following their introductory game. It's definitely not a Steel Wool specific flaw in the FNAF franchise, though.
Yeah, I get it. It was obvious from the start that it wasn't really Gregory talking over that walkie, and the nodes really broke up the pacing. I did enjoy the ruined Freddy bit though. The detail of his stomach hatch resembling a mouth was a neat callback to fnaf 4.
Something that frustrates me about this game is all the pointless scares. Falling cart, security bot, falling elevator, breaking vents, monty and chica, etc! All for just playing through the game, not as punishments like it's supposed to be. I mentioned it in a stream of the game counting just how many loud noises they abuse, and they said "Oh fnaf was always like this" BUT NO! The only jumpscare that wasn't a punishment before help wanted was the fake out in sister location with funtime foxy! Everything else, even if it didn't kill you, was punishing a mistake.
I love the "Why hello there :D" when you see the Nightmare plush, and I'm sorry but I laughed way to hard when you just bluntly said that Sun's song sucked. I did love the 8D reaction to Eclipse. But it was nice to see some gameplay from you! Your live commentary was fun.
Unrelated, but I like how you use the images of Charlie from the grafic novels, as some sort of avatar to show off your emotions in what you are trying to say; with them also having a few custom speech bubbles in some of your more recent videos.
Swcurity Breach and RUIN might have issues but I will always adore the characters they introduced. Aka literally every character. The games might have not done everyone full justice, but that's what the fan content is for at this point. The mystery itself or journey is usually more fun as a community than just by itself.
I felt the exact same way, I kept getting lost because of all the lights and colors everywhere when wearing the mask. And phasing through objects just broke my immersion. since all I could think was: HUH?
I KNEW the ending being spoiled had something to do with the Mimic. When you initially mentioned how it was spoiled on you I predicted that it had something to do with them because the community went WILD with the character for a very long time. *Get ready boys and girls, it's story time!* When Ruin first released, I didn't have time to play it right away so I tried very hard to avoid spoilers so I could go in blind whenever I got around to it. I went out of my way to stay away from anything and everything to do with FNaF until all the hype had died down. Stayed away from Twitch, muted keywords on Twitter, even went as far as to open UA-cam in an incognito window and stayed signed out. Despite all of that effort, it wasn't enough because the first day wasn't even over before a wave of both tagged and untagged posts of the Mimic were in my Twitter timeline. "RUIN" and "MIMIC" was stuck in my trending topics, and the next day when I accidentally went into UA-cam while signed in, there was number of videos pushed to my front page showing both the ending and the Mimic. I was absolutely livid because despite my efforts to AVOID all the hype and spoilers, it STILL found a way to me. Even if I didn't slip up on the second day, it was all over social media for weeks. Maybe if you do another hot take video I should talk about how much I've come to dislike the Mimic. I remember hearing about them in the books and thinking they were a really cool idea, but ever since their inclusion in the game my views have shifted for many reasons aside from the above mentioned spoiling.
Oh, that's horrible! >.< And it really sucks. It kind of ties your hands to either play the game at 3am or risk having it spoiled. I'm going to be doing one very soon! I'll have a community post when I do!
I have a lot of problems with Ruin, and one of my problems with Ruin is some of the fan service. Now now I don’t hate fan service, but I feel like some of the fan service in Ruin hurts the game. The daycare was extremely disappointing to me, the daycare attendant just sits in one spot and does nothing as Cassie goes around turning on the two generators(I’m pretty sure the only way you can die in the daycare is by approaching the daycare attendant before you’ve turned on both generators), and I was even more disappointed with Eclipse. I was hoping that Eclipse would be hostile like the others, but instead we get a 5 second scene of him taking Cassie out of the daycare and then he’s gone. The sub plot of getting Chica that spare voice box, I hated it. It went no where and it makes no for it to be in an arcade game or for Cassie to put it in her because she’s given no reason to do so(it kind of feels like a scene or two are missing to give Cassie a reason to give Chica the voice box). And to make it even worst it goes no where because Chica powers down seemingly for good. It feels like that sub plot was there for people who wanted to fix the animatronics. Then there’s Roxy, I honestly hated Roxy’s role in Ruin, it felt forced and unearned to me. We only get one brief scene of them before Cassis shuts Roxy, and it made no sense to me that Roxy didn’t kill Cassie. I know people say it’s because they knew each other and that Roxy comforted Cassie in the past, but Freddy and Gregory are extremely close and Freddy will still kill Gregory if he gets taken over by the virus. Roxy’s whole role in Ruin to me felt like it was there for fans who wanted another animatronic ally, and Roxy was chosen because she was the most popular out of the three.
I really hope Chica isn’t actually dead, I hope she’ll be important in the next part that takes place after Ruin since we give her voice box back, I really hope she gets a redemption arc as well like Roxy did, Even though you said it was forced I still really liked it, don’t hurt me.
@shadowbowser5674 it’s fine if you like it, I’m just saying that to me just like with Roxy’s role the Chica sub plot felt forced. I’m glad some people liked it, but I’m just somebody who didn’t for a lot of reasons. If I’m being completely honest I’ve never liked the idea of fixing any of the Glamrock, even before Ruin. I’ve like the idea of getting it a DLC where we can choose one of them to be Gregory’s ally, but that’s about it. Since I’ve always like how with FNAF, not everyone can be saved, for example in FNAF2 there is nothing that can be done to prevent the DCI from happening, no matter what you do William will always get the Spring Bonnie suit and use it to kill more kids, and FNAF4 no matter what you do in the mini games CC will always be killed by Fredbear. SB continues that by not being able to fix the other animatronics and I like that, because FNAF it’s about tragedy, not everyone can be saved, and Freddy’s friends were one of many who can’t. Also IMO SB is one of the least scariest FNAF, it has some scary elements yes, but it’s still not very scary. Being able to fix the other animatronics would kill what little fear factor SB has. Since what is there to be afraid of when Gregory has 4 or even 5 animatronics protecting him. Especially when Vanny barely shows up, and the only other threats are the endos which are only in Bonnie Bowl(for some reason) and the basement, The DJ who’s only in the Dance arcade, and the Mini Music man who’s only in the vents, if we could free the others then it would kind of just trivializes the game at that point. And with Ruin one of it’s problems is that the animatronics are much easier to avoid nor do they show up as much as they did in SB, and considering the fact that it ended on a cliffhanger meaning it’s very possible there will be continuation were we most likely play as Gregory again, returning to the Pizzaplex along side Vanessa and Freddy to rescue Cassie. But if that does happen there’s not really gonna be much of a threat to worry about, since the daycare attendant was rebooted, Monty was electrocuted, Chica seemingly powered down for good, and Roxy was most likely destroyed by Mimic, and even if she wasn’t Cassie screaming at her somehow put it on safe mode so she wouldn’t be a threat. The only threats to worry about would be the endos, the horde of Mini Music men, Prototype Freddy, and possibly the DJ, all of which I’m pretty sure only appear in one area. And there’s also the fact of whoever we play as would most likely not have a Faz wrench with them since those are the only things that can reboot animatronics, Cassie had found hers in the Pizzaplex, and even then then Chica is most likely not functioning now. Now I will say this, it really should have been Chica not Roxy. All they would’ve had to do is change where Cassie get Chica’s upgrade, example on a work table, possibly with new upgrades for Roxy and Monty but unlike Chica's those were damaged. Then just have Chica at the end of her section gets stuck under something and well she’s trying to get unstuck Cassie sneaks behind her and reboots her. It would have been a lot more natural and far let force then it was with Roxy.
The relationship between Roxy and Cassie subplot is the worst thing this game has ever showcased. I don't understand what Steelwool was thinking, were they trying to get a quick cry out of the players (to which they hardly even cared), was this "fanservice" to make us love and somewhat feel bad for Roxy, or were they too worried that the game was "too dark" for the child protagonist to not have an animatronic ally like Freddy with them and being brutally murdered by literally all of them? Either way, it fails. I can go on, but that would take 2 pages of ranting.
@@royschemadovits8713 Most people loved the Roxy and Cassie subplot tho, A lot of people cried at that scene, Even Markiplier, You can’t say they hardly even cared because it’s not true.
I also dare to bitch about the whole AR thingy. in my humble opinion it totally ruined... RUIN. like, I get it that it would help you see technical details and Helpi and stuff. but the whole teleporting, glitch-through and walking through air bs totally killed it. this is not how AR works. and it gave the whole game a fantasy touch NO fricking FNAF game should have.
honestly, i think they should've just lead into the whole "haunted animatronic" thing and had the AR mask just be a haunted mask, that would make way more sense
@@nametheocmaker I would have been down for the mask making her "invisible" to the animatronics eyes. that would have been a nice game mechanic. or the mask even make the animatronics think she was Vanny so they would listen to her.
I find it funny that people will praise Cassie saying that she’s far more realistic than Gregory. Even though Cassie to show no fear for the Ruin animatronics even though they are far more terrifying than they were before being damaged, nor she does she even question Grimic on things, like no police or him knowing where she is.
I wouldn't say Cassie is more realistic than Gregory. If anything, Gregory's distrust and wariness is closer to what someone in that situation might actually feel, but Cassie represents more of what the fans WANT to feel, y'know? She helps the animatronics, she's sympathetic towards them right off the bat- she's what the audience wants, but that makes her more of a character and less of a person.
I agree with this, I like that Gregory doesn’t trust Freddy at the start even though Freddy is trying to help him and that he’s wary of what’s going on(and that wariness is warranted when Chica and Monty chase him into the office). And I completely agree with Cassie, now I don’t hate her but my problem with Cassie is that her character feels like it was made for the fans who felt sympathy for and wanted to fix the animatronics, while not giving her a reason to want to fix them or to feel bad for them. But as a result it makes her feel some what like a caricature of what some fans wanted rather than her own person.
@@justsomerandomperson6506 I disagree for a few reasons. For starters. "I like that Gregory doesn't trust Freddy at the start" But shouldn't he trust Freddy at the start?, none of them have tried to attack Gregory yet. Plus he's friends with Cassie, she would have told him about her friendly encounter with Roxy, who's her favourite. Just because Gregory was distrustful and unempathic to the animatronics, doesn't mean every single person will react/think the same way. Cassie was a long time regular at the Pizzaplex and was without friends, only getting one when Gregory showed up at her disaster of a party(how is she not relatable for many people?). I get the sense that Cassie has more of a connection to the animatronics like Roxy, Daycare Attendant, Chica and Bonnie. That's why she's so willing to help them and shows sympathy in these dangerous situations.
fnaf ruin without the walking through walls thing looks so cool and (in my opinion of what I've seen) the atmosphere is good until the mask makes the place feel fake like a simulation the pizzaplex doesn't feel like a place falling apart when you walk through "glitchy objects."
She isn't really dimwit more just gullible, she seems like the type of girl to put her needs below her just to put others needs up. She's just too caring and nice for her own good to the point where that caring and nice side of her is taken advantage off by the Mimic.
Ugh, thumbnail spoilers are the worst, especially since you can’t avoid them if you watch content about the game they’re spoiling. After a while, every FNAF UA-camr’s gonna be flooding you with the Mimic, so you only really have a limited time to actually experience the game before you get spoiled. Also, yes, Daycare’s too short >:( They should honestly just make a Superstar Daycare spinoff at this point
Me sitting in the dark channeling Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars: Good, good let the hate flow through you. Embarce the power of the dark side... This was my attempt at a joke.
16:21 I mean you got it kinda right, one character that we thought was a villain was actually a security program, it just wasn't Vanny it was The Entity aka MXES.
I actually ragequit security breach on the Afton fight. Not because it was glitching out for me or anything, but because I’m just not good enough at the game. I got most of the endings, and had fun, but the Afton fight was harder than it needed to be, especially since the only other boss fight in the game is against Monty.
I only stopped playing normal security breach on the part where you have to get to the main stage before the music stops playing. Any attempt to move forward quickly without hiding means a guaranteed jumpscare, and if you take longer than 0.0005 seconds vanny homes in her mysterious omniscience.
Not talking over the dialogue?! What a novel idea!!! Wish more UA-camrs tried that. But seriously, as someone who thinks ruin is pretty cool, I feel like it has the same gameplay issue as Security Breach. All the parts that were tense and exiting were way too short and vastly outnumbered by padding sections. Security Breach had the Endos, and Ruin had the security nodes. Edit: Also I got the ending spoiled as well. A UA-camr I watch occasionally made fan art of the ruined characters, and in the selection was The Mimic. (This was in the same week the game came out)
I have absolutely no clue why everyone was praising the *gameplay* of Ruin. It is at its very best a low end limited remake of pac man. Most enemies pose no serious threat whatever, when there even are any enemies in an area, and those that do pose a threat only do so because the geography of the area forces the player into the area of extreme danger.
Mainly because it was not a glitchy mess unlike sb. And ruin had straight forward gameplay unlike sb and it tried to be scary Me personally I pick it over sb any day, but I'ma mega FNAF fan not because of the gameplay but because of the characters and the very messy story of FNAF
"I was waiting for the game to begin the whole time" That's EXACTLY how I felt. I distinctly remember Bonnie Bowling being the moment the game "started" to pick up, simply because the little music men managed to pose an actual threat. For once. I actually felt challenged trying to lure the little bastards and get the node before they came back, while avoiding one little music man (who I presume was bugged) who was following me around no matter how far I run from it. And then it was over. The only threat to the player is the MXES and he can be avoiding simply by taking off the mask, so he was never a threat. Without a threat, how am I meant to feel tension? And without tension, how is this game meant to achieve horror?
I get that, but I knew better than to play a Steel Wool game at launch. They increased the difficulty in later patches. Still quite easy, but not as extreme.
I'm sorry your playthrough of Ruin was so frustrating! That's always a pain. I will say though, this video taught me that I would not mind watching you do playthrough content if you wanted to, personally. It didn't bother me at all that you felt like you were rambling, you have a nice voice to listen to and it was fun to just hear what was on your mind.
Man, shout-out to TinyBuild for having bigger balls than FNaF. For one, actually including blood and simply saying their antagonist "killed those kids." If you hadn't heard yet, their cartoon show actually made Mr. "Hello, Neighbor" Peterson into a more intimidating villain than anything we've gotten from Steel Wool. Actually, the overall quality of the dialogue in that show avoids anything on the level of this "Well That Just Happened" verbal sludgefest that spews out of Cassie's mouth.
It's charming to see like an authentic version of a let's play/critique. I feel like most youtubers either gas it up or lighten their critiques. Idk its refreshing. The salt was funny
Ive said it before and i still stand by it Security breach mindbroke the fnaf community so bad that this below mediocre walking simulator with a protagonist that doesnt react to anything like an actual child (or even like an actual human being) is somehow seen as "peak"
"a protagonist that doesnt react to anything like an actual child (or even like an actual human being) " Disagree, Cassie does react in a more realistic way, she's a big improvement over Gregory. This is just your own opinion, considering how many people liked Ruin/Cassie.
@@prufan in absolutely no universe is a child getting tackled into a pool of water by a murderous robot and nearly drowning to only respond with "owie my head" realistic lmfao Also thanks for telling me my opinion is an opinion man, don't know where I would be without that investigative insight. Totally didn't start my comment saying that it's what I've said and still stand by, making it an opinion by default.
@@hankhill6404 "in absolutely no universe is a child getting tackled into a pool of water by a murderous robot and nearly drowning to only respond with "owie my head" realistic" again, that's your opinion😁, Cassie was liked by most fans and that's why I reminded you it is your opinion and not the majority.
@@prufan this is genuinely the dumbest most pointless comment I've ever seen Nowhere in my comment did I state that how I felt was the majority opinion in any way. Go pester someone else
@@hankhill6404I genuinely have to agree here. If I was in Cassie’s position at her age I would have broke down crying for mom to pick me up but she seems so nonchalant about everything. Throughout the entire game she’s sorta like “yeah that just happened. Moving on-“ like is it that hard to write a convincing character?
(I'll probably leave more comments this is the first one though) 9:45 so you're telling me Cassie was on the ground floor in the kitchen, went back and DOWN, went into a water sewer thingy and somehow ended on THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MAP without drowning, it doesn't take very long to ruin across the main atrium but Cassie was a much longer distance than, she also changed levels
The VANNI mask COULD have worked if executed correctly Imagine 1 of 2 scenarios 1 The mask takes you to a fantasy world and you navigate MENTALLY you don’t physically go anywhere Or 2 The security nodes are not random objects being highlighted by the mask with no real devices attached Instead the nodes were actual machines with keypads on them Written on the machines are invisible ink somewhere and the mask reveals what it says Which is how you turn it off Which one do you prefer
Hmm... Those are actually both good ideas. I'm not sure if I'd prefer one or a sort of combo of two. 1. definitely would lead to some cool scenarios, but 2. could fix some of the issues for certain! And reminds me of that seeing tool from Bendy. :)
@@notrealnamenotatall2476 yeaaa There was an episode from “The Batman TV show” where Bruce is trying to find a detective named “Yin” and goes through this “joker esc simulator” in trying to find her The first option references that episode and that could have been the case where at the end, instead of finding out where Gregory physically is in the building, you release Glitchtrap
I guess we'll have to wait and see how the Blast To The Past and The Remains mods fix the main game and recreate what would've been. Whenever I rewatch the trailers, I get kind of mad and disappointed about the game that we didn't get (even if I liked the main game and loved Ruin).
20:45 I love how Security Breach has gotten such a reputation, you literally don't know what's glitching out intentionally and what's just glitching XD
This is why I really like your videos because you can like put into words like things I can’t. I didn’t really like Cassie I didn’t really know why but you some it up in like 4 words anyway keep doing what are you doing I love your videos
Overall, I enjoyed Security Breach's RUIN DLC, but I can see what you mean with the colors and lighting in the game NotRealName. As I had trouble to where it made navigating parts of the levels like Catwalks and the Bakery on my first time through to where I was suppose to go next that I found very confusing. But in the end it had a lot of great improvements that the Steel Wool team improved upon from the fans criticism with what they could've done better in the main game.
I ragequit at the bonnie bowl music man part BECAUSE OH MY GOD ITS SO FUCKIN COMPLICATED AND THEN AFTER I FINALLY UNDERSTAND HOW TO DO THE LEVEL ITS GLITCHED AND ONE OF THE MUSIC MEN IS ON TOP OF THE NODE AND ITS IMPOSSIBE AND I KEEP DYING AND IT TAKES ME LIKE 10 MINUTES TO RESPAWN BECAUSE OF THE SHITTY PS4 I WAS PLAYING ON AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRHHHH
Ill be real, i think the mimic is the dumbest addition to the series. It feels like a last minute retcon to backlash to the burntrap ending. The whole game's story was bad. Not just that one ending
Agreed. I'll admit, I could see them doing some interesting things with the Mimic to get at least _some_ mileage out of him while he's here, but the fact that he's even here in the first place kinda sucks.
The Roxy and Cassie backstory literally is the only reason to play Ruin, and I guess the Roxy character building in Security Breach and Help Wanted 2 are the only reasons to play those too, but might just be Roxy bias on my end.
Same. I think that the reason that I initially liked Ruin was because of Cassie and Roxy. But once you remove the duo, the DLC really isn't that good. Those two characters carry the DLC.
Maybe it's just my theory brain and also my suspension of disbelief, but when I compare my playthrough to others, I got on really quickly that they mean Augmented Reality in a very literal way. "How does this technology work" "cus fazbear and it's a fictional world." Does that mean that things that are ruined or destroyed in the real life mean that you have to use the AR mask to travel through playgrounds that don't exist anymore any more annoying? .........No.
Some theorize that every VR object is created from Cassie's mind.... GPT's are the only real world program that could generate stuff based on vague prompts, and that needs gigabytes->Terabytes of generalized assets to do so, so the more likely case is that someone made all the VR assets in universe, instead of an AI. Which means that Vanny and/or the Mimic Chose Cassie as their target.
Makes sense, it's implied that Gregory was also specifically chosen to be a Glitchtrap follower or at least in the books with the whole source code conversation with Vanny and Glitchtrap "Have you selected one yet? "I have..." idk why Gregory might have been specifically chosen? maybe Gregory reminded The Mimic of David they are kinda similar.
I lean on the side that fazbear entertainment created inter dimensional travel but we’re so stupid they though it was just augmented reality Becatse seriously that’s the only explanation as to how such interactions could work
The Vanni Mask is so confusing to be honest, first of all why would Fazbear Entertainment make a Technician Mask based on a serial killer? That is beyond messed up and problematic. Unless the Vanni mask came before Vanessa become Vanny, but then that would bring the question why did Vanessa make her serial killer fursona based on a Technician Mask? it's a did the chicken came first or the egg sorta question. Oh yeah the whole teleporting, going through worm holes and phasing through objects, I would like to believe that that's just Cassie's implant chip making her think and see that, as Helpi can still talk to Cassie without the Vanni Mask on and the disappearing plush babies in that one room. But if that's true then.. how much of Ruin is real? is it all fake? what actually happened??
Oh, that is some _crunchy_ audio bay _beeeeee_ What I love about this video is that it's so rare we hear you speak in such an off the cuff manner. You have a very particular cadence you use for your scripted videos, and it's so interesting to hear that same voice and a _bit_ of that same cadence, but with a bit more variety in tone and getting surprised by things. It just feels more "real", you know? Your voice is the thing that really endeared me to this channel so I'm always excited to hear you in different contexts. It's fun when you let yourself get a little weird, laugh at dumb jokes, sing little songs, and even when you get genuinely flustered and frustrated. You make a comment pretty early on in the playthrough about being cringe, but sometimes it's fun to see someone embrace the cringe when they're really passionate about something. Plus, you're a largely FNAF-based channel, there's just a little cringe baked into the whole thing.
Thank you! 8D That's a huge compliment, really. I normally like to have all my thoughts together so I don't ramble, but it's a relief to know that it still worked. ^_^ I might do it again sometime, honestly!
Apart from the Daycare being really short, I LOVED Ruin, and I'm sorry you couldn't enjoy it as much as I did, I guess it isn't a game for everyone, for me it was scary and perfectly challenging.
Ima fs watch this later but ppl rage quitting can be pretty funny. I watched gameplay only and the Roxy raceway segment and the Monty Golf segment always seemed the most annoying part of the game.
I was able to finish ruin with my sisters help… only for the game itself to sabotage me on a second play through. THE FLOOR DISAPPEARED AND I COULDNT PROCEED
50:53 Another youtuber, LS Mark, said something kinda similar, the game ended when things were just getting started You're getting chased by the mimic, starting to learn about it, and then the game ends "PRESS E TO SKIP!?" Playing ruin it just wasn't all that fun, having recently played the dark revival I can see this took a lot of inspiration from it to help improve it, but something about ruin is off compared to dark revival, while I'd say both are on the same platform, bendy did something right that fnaf horribly missed
I think it was a mix of time constraints and the fact that Ruin was built on top of Security Breach. So, there probably had to be a lot of tweaking and fixing to make it work. Dark Revival had a lot more time to work things out- and it shows! It's not easy to break that game.
You doing a playthough on this. That's a nice little change up from the standard videos you do. Oh! Maybe you can do more stuff like this in the future as well.
Wow, there's a lot of Cassie slander in the comments, it's a bit disappointing. Since she was a really likeable and relatable character. She's the first fnaf protagonist that I actually liked, especially from the games, since I was let down by SB in that aspect.

Great video but I’ll come back later because I’m watching a video on astralspiff playing peaks of yore If you like frustrating climbing games like getting over it I recommend
I fell asleep during Markiplier’s playthrough of ruin. Something I’d never done in any of his fnaf let’s plays or any let’s play for that matter. It’s a walking simulator done in the least engaging way. Security Breach sucked but at least the glitches made it entertaining to watch.
Notrealname salt coming to save the day!!! This was so funny and yeah I agree with all your criticism of Ruin. It’s just boring it’s not enjoyable minus a few parts. Like SB is more of a hot mess but at least a hot mess is interesting
Ruin certainly isn't perfect, but the biggest thing that made it worth it for me was going in blind. I had to work the day it came out, which meant I had to stay off the internet until I got to play it. I also didn't touch the books and basically knew nothing about the mimic, that definitely helped, but even knowing nothing the entire Gregory thing screamed "trap". I had a goofy smile when we helped Eclipse, I found Monty being a feral guard dog amusing, giving Chica back her voice felt like a small victory, and I was genuinely shocked with Freddy's reveal and chase. Oh and I absolutely did not flip when Roxy showed hesitation and remorse... I also didn't cry harder than Cassie at the end with Roxy, nope, totally didn't.
I stopped playing RUIN shortly after getting past Monty's first encounter, after messing around with the golf minigame. For me, the mini golf was the most enjoyable part because even though its difficulty is way too high (imho) it's a nice little breather. No jumps. Just golf. As an easily startled person it offered a nice momentary break to gather myself before the next segment lol
(52:50) That is a problem that needs to be fixed, people needs to stop, I guess clickbaiting, cause stuff like this happens. Sorry that your experience was ruined.
I maybe disagree with some point's, but i'm definitely agree with base game SB being much more enjoyable to replay. The only thing that was motivating me to play Ruin second time was Roxy/Freddy and necessity to get more footage. But i don't know that i will call it a "bad quality" to have. Ruin just feels like a completely different game style. Overall i liked both a lot, just for different reasons.
this video was hilarious and i love the amount of effort put into it. i think all of those little youtube "scrub bar chapter" thingies were a great addition
Looking back on ruin, it was pretty disappointing, when I played sb I can see all the love and care (that was rushed out and band-aided together), when I play ruin all I get is a small company bending over cus people didn't like Burntrap While sb is objectively bad, I always came back to it every other month just to admire the pizzaplex or play around with the (broken) animatronic ai even though I 100% it, with ruin I don't see myself ever coming back after completing it, it's not fun, I didn't find it scary, and the mimic just makes me mad undoing burntraps potential and vannys non-existent potential
Son of a… ok so I saw a thumbnail of a video saying like “What did mask bot say to Cassie before shutting down” and so I came here to get an unbiased look at it and 11:10 it straight up really sounds like he’s saying “I am your father” and I don’t know how to feel about that
I loved the exasperated "Come on Monty... I'm trying to do something" As if he's a whiny dog and not a horrifying alligator robot.
Well with how scuffed he looks and growling like a rabid dog, he ain't far off from a mangey street dog
To be fair, in ruin Monty really is like an angry chihuahua pissed off about its owner about to clip its nails lmao
Monty's chihuahua energy is part of why I love him
@@sophitiaofhyrule that is so real of you
Well, Monty does chew and bite on metal bars in one scene like a tiny dog trying to act tough by biting and shaking a pillow, or blanket (yes, I have owned many small dogs, and they do this a lot.)
Ruin Monty is pretty much a Junkyard Guard Dog.
A trend I've been seeing in horror games, that comes through in your live commentary, is that the primary fear people have now in horror games is not the situation or the creature stalking you, but the fear that an annoying sequence or repetitive (usually hard and sort of unfair) chase is about to happen. Truly we are at the peak of horror -- the fear of the mundane.
Great video. Sad to see you didn't enjoy your playthrough of Ruin, still this gameplay was fun to watch. Hope to see more gameplay stuff in the future.
Your my new favourite UA-camr voice
NotRealName is up there,but there’s no topping Chills: Number 15…
Hot take: fnaf CANT work in free roam, what made the games scary (especially fnaf 1 and 3) is that you dont see the animatronics moving, as if they are statues
There's a reason weeping angels type monsters are so terrifying. The only way to get out is to put yourself in danger, the same thing you used to have to do in the early games
Dawko spoiled ruin for me. I love him to bits but he REALLY needs to reevalute his titles and thumbnails especially when he's getting the games early
Base Security breach is a game of incredible highs and incredible lows 6/10
I love this its really funny 😂
Has Cassie never met Gregory?
He would not be a child any more.
Steel Wool did not think this character dynamic through.
"Even he doesn't last that long"
What disappoints me about Daycare is that they tried to make the second half of the gameplay not involve Eclipse at all. We get introduced to a new character that Sun was VERY HEAVILY hinted to know about, and he’s on screen for 20 seconds. And then we deal with Endos and that’s it before we go right back to Monty Golf. Like, what the hell Steelwool?
They always know how to waste a character’s potential
It’s almost Vanny all over again
@ALiteralRottenHusk I understand but those were just random Easter eggs and those characters never had any buildup so it’s better… to an extent
They never had any buildup but still potential, not as bad as Vanny and the mimic
As long as SW isn’t doing anything else to this series, it’ll be fine
@ALiteralRottenHuskthey are unpredictable, I’ll give them that… but not in the best way
@ALiteralRottenHusk I'd argue it's more akin to what happened to Baby and Michael Afton; they both got their roles diminished and ended in the game immediately following their introductory game. It's definitely not a Steel Wool specific flaw in the FNAF franchise, though.
“this is why he didn’t get into help wanted 2” 😭😭 poor monty
Maybe dlc like 2 years later
Yeah, I get it. It was obvious from the start that it wasn't really Gregory talking over that walkie, and the nodes really broke up the pacing. I did enjoy the ruined Freddy bit though. The detail of his stomach hatch resembling a mouth was a neat callback to fnaf 4.
Don’t forget the word prototype on his leg making some theories
Wever you like it or not is up to the people
Something that frustrates me about this game is all the pointless scares. Falling cart, security bot, falling elevator, breaking vents, monty and chica, etc! All for just playing through the game, not as punishments like it's supposed to be.
I mentioned it in a stream of the game counting just how many loud noises they abuse, and they said "Oh fnaf was always like this" BUT NO! The only jumpscare that wasn't a punishment before help wanted was the fake out in sister location with funtime foxy! Everything else, even if it didn't kill you, was punishing a mistake.
Me imagining someone at steelwhool just spamming jump-scare noises
I love the "Why hello there :D" when you see the Nightmare plush, and I'm sorry but I laughed way to hard when you just bluntly said that Sun's song sucked. I did love the 8D reaction to Eclipse.
But it was nice to see some gameplay from you! Your live commentary was fun.
Ruin?
I was ruined once, they put me in a room. A concrete room!!
Freddy fazballz
"What? oh no it's just the walls breathing." -That got me more then it should.
Unrelated, but I like how you use the images of Charlie from the grafic novels, as some sort of avatar to show off your emotions in what you are trying to say; with them also having a few custom speech bubbles in some of your more recent videos.
Saving this to watch later for when Ruin finally comes to Xbox and I get to play it 💀💀💀
Remind me when it does 😭
Yeah,, Can't wait for it to come out on switch to 💔💀
Ha never on switch Nintendo would never
We will probably die of old age before that happens.
Toy Bonnie vid plz
Swcurity Breach and RUIN might have issues but I will always adore the characters they introduced. Aka literally every character. The games might have not done everyone full justice, but that's what the fan content is for at this point. The mystery itself or journey is usually more fun as a community than just by itself.
I felt the exact same way, I kept getting lost because of all the lights and colors everywhere when wearing the mask. And phasing through objects just broke my immersion. since all I could think was: HUH?
FR also why would they make technician mask BASED ON A SERIAL KILLER!?!?!
@@3nc335 i thought they made a cerial killer out of a technician mask
Vanny = vanessa + bunny @@nametheocmaker
@@3nc335 Maybe because the Technician Mask came before Vanny herself?
How do you get lost when you're playing what is almost entirely comprised of hallways. Only sequence I can see getting lost is Bonnie Bowl.
I KNEW the ending being spoiled had something to do with the Mimic. When you initially mentioned how it was spoiled on you I predicted that it had something to do with them because the community went WILD with the character for a very long time.
*Get ready boys and girls, it's story time!*
When Ruin first released, I didn't have time to play it right away so I tried very hard to avoid spoilers so I could go in blind whenever I got around to it. I went out of my way to stay away from anything and everything to do with FNaF until all the hype had died down. Stayed away from Twitch, muted keywords on Twitter, even went as far as to open UA-cam in an incognito window and stayed signed out. Despite all of that effort, it wasn't enough because the first day wasn't even over before a wave of both tagged and untagged posts of the Mimic were in my Twitter timeline. "RUIN" and "MIMIC" was stuck in my trending topics, and the next day when I accidentally went into UA-cam while signed in, there was number of videos pushed to my front page showing both the ending and the Mimic. I was absolutely livid because despite my efforts to AVOID all the hype and spoilers, it STILL found a way to me. Even if I didn't slip up on the second day, it was all over social media for weeks.
Maybe if you do another hot take video I should talk about how much I've come to dislike the Mimic. I remember hearing about them in the books and thinking they were a really cool idea, but ever since their inclusion in the game my views have shifted for many reasons aside from the above mentioned spoiling.
Oh, that's horrible! >.< And it really sucks. It kind of ties your hands to either play the game at 3am or risk having it spoiled.
I'm going to be doing one very soon! I'll have a community post when I do!
I have a lot of problems with Ruin, and one of my problems with Ruin is some of the fan service. Now now I don’t hate fan service, but I feel like some of the fan service in Ruin hurts the game.
The daycare was extremely disappointing to me, the daycare attendant just sits in one spot and does nothing as Cassie goes around turning on the two generators(I’m pretty sure the only way you can die in the daycare is by approaching the daycare attendant before you’ve turned on both generators), and I was even more disappointed with Eclipse. I was hoping that Eclipse would be hostile like the others, but instead we get a 5 second scene of him taking Cassie out of the daycare and then he’s gone.
The sub plot of getting Chica that spare voice box, I hated it. It went no where and it makes no for it to be in an arcade game or for Cassie to put it in her because she’s given no reason to do so(it kind of feels like a scene or two are missing to give Cassie a reason to give Chica the voice box). And to make it even worst it goes no where because Chica powers down seemingly for good. It feels like that sub plot was there for people who wanted to fix the animatronics.
Then there’s Roxy, I honestly hated Roxy’s role in Ruin, it felt forced and unearned to me. We only get one brief scene of them before Cassis shuts Roxy, and it made no sense to me that Roxy didn’t kill Cassie. I know people say it’s because they knew each other and that Roxy comforted Cassie in the past, but Freddy and Gregory are extremely close and Freddy will still kill Gregory if he gets taken over by the virus. Roxy’s whole role in Ruin to me felt like it was there for fans who wanted another animatronic ally, and Roxy was chosen because she was the most popular out of the three.
I really hope Chica isn’t actually dead, I hope she’ll be important in the next part that takes place after Ruin since we give her voice box back, I really hope she gets a redemption arc as well like Roxy did, Even though you said it was forced I still really liked it, don’t hurt me.
@shadowbowser5674 it’s fine if you like it, I’m just saying that to me just like with Roxy’s role the Chica sub plot felt forced. I’m glad some people liked it, but I’m just somebody who didn’t for a lot of reasons.
If I’m being completely honest I’ve never liked the idea of fixing any of the Glamrock, even before Ruin. I’ve like the idea of getting it a DLC where we can choose one of them to be Gregory’s ally, but that’s about it.
Since I’ve always like how with FNAF, not everyone can be saved, for example in FNAF2 there is nothing that can be done to prevent the DCI from happening, no matter what you do William will always get the Spring Bonnie suit and use it to kill more kids, and FNAF4 no matter what you do in the mini games CC will always be killed by Fredbear. SB continues that by not being able to fix the other animatronics and I like that, because FNAF it’s about tragedy, not everyone can be saved, and Freddy’s friends were one of many who can’t.
Also IMO SB is one of the least scariest FNAF, it has some scary elements yes, but it’s still not very scary. Being able to fix the other animatronics would kill what little fear factor SB has. Since what is there to be afraid of when Gregory has 4 or even 5 animatronics protecting him. Especially when Vanny barely shows up, and the only other threats are the endos which are only in Bonnie Bowl(for some reason) and the basement, The DJ who’s only in the Dance arcade, and the Mini Music man who’s only in the vents, if we could free the others then it would kind of just trivializes the game at that point.
And with Ruin one of it’s problems is that the animatronics are much easier to avoid nor do they show up as much as they did in SB, and considering the fact that it ended on a cliffhanger meaning it’s very possible there will be continuation were we most likely play as Gregory again, returning to the Pizzaplex along side Vanessa and Freddy to rescue Cassie. But if that does happen there’s not really gonna be much of a threat to worry about, since the daycare attendant was rebooted, Monty was electrocuted, Chica seemingly powered down for good, and Roxy was most likely destroyed by Mimic, and even if she wasn’t Cassie screaming at her somehow put it on safe mode so she wouldn’t be a threat. The only threats to worry about would be the endos, the horde of Mini Music men, Prototype Freddy, and possibly the DJ, all of which I’m pretty sure only appear in one area. And there’s also the fact of whoever we play as would most likely not have a Faz wrench with them since those are the only things that can reboot animatronics, Cassie had found hers in the Pizzaplex, and even then then Chica is most likely not functioning now.
Now I will say this, it really should have been Chica not Roxy. All they would’ve had to do is change where Cassie get Chica’s upgrade, example on a work table, possibly with new upgrades for Roxy and Monty but unlike Chica's those were damaged. Then just have Chica at the end of her section gets stuck under something and well she’s trying to get unstuck Cassie sneaks behind her and reboots her. It would have been a lot more natural and far let force then it was with Roxy.
@@justsomerandomperson6506 Quite a hot take you got there, But okay I respect it
The relationship between Roxy and Cassie subplot is the worst thing this game has ever showcased. I don't understand what Steelwool was thinking, were they trying to get a quick cry out of the players (to which they hardly even cared), was this "fanservice" to make us love and somewhat feel bad for Roxy, or were they too worried that the game was "too dark" for the child protagonist to not have an animatronic ally like Freddy with them and being brutally murdered by literally all of them? Either way, it fails. I can go on, but that would take 2 pages of ranting.
@@royschemadovits8713 Most people loved the Roxy and Cassie subplot tho, A lot of people cried at that scene, Even Markiplier, You can’t say they hardly even cared because it’s not true.
I also dare to bitch about the whole AR thingy. in my humble opinion it totally ruined... RUIN. like, I get it that it would help you see technical details and Helpi and stuff. but the whole teleporting, glitch-through and walking through air bs totally killed it. this is not how AR works. and it gave the whole game a fantasy touch NO fricking FNAF game should have.
honestly, i think they should've just lead into the whole "haunted animatronic" thing and had the AR mask just be a haunted mask, that would make way more sense
@@nametheocmaker I would have been down for the mask making her "invisible" to the animatronics eyes. that would have been a nice game mechanic. or the mask even make the animatronics think she was Vanny so they would listen to her.
@@phoneguy4637 the making the animatronics think that shes vanny thing actually sounds really neat! that would also mean m.x.e.s would be real
@@nametheocmaker why thanks^^

I find it funny that people will praise Cassie saying that she’s far more realistic than Gregory. Even though Cassie to show no fear for the Ruin animatronics even though they are far more terrifying than they were before being damaged, nor she does she even question Grimic on things, like no police or him knowing where she is.
I wouldn't say Cassie is more realistic than Gregory. If anything, Gregory's distrust and wariness is closer to what someone in that situation might actually feel, but Cassie represents more of what the fans WANT to feel, y'know? She helps the animatronics, she's sympathetic towards them right off the bat- she's what the audience wants, but that makes her more of a character and less of a person.
I agree with this, I like that Gregory doesn’t trust Freddy at the start even though Freddy is trying to help him and that he’s wary of what’s going on(and that wariness is warranted when Chica and Monty chase him into the office).
And I completely agree with Cassie, now I don’t hate her but my problem with Cassie is that her character feels like it was made for the fans who felt sympathy for and wanted to fix the animatronics, while not giving her a reason to want to fix them or to feel bad for them. But as a result it makes her feel some what like a caricature of what some fans wanted rather than her own person.
@@justsomerandomperson6506 I disagree for a few reasons.
For starters. "I like that Gregory doesn't trust Freddy at the start" But shouldn't he trust Freddy at the start?, none of them have tried to attack Gregory yet.
Plus he's friends with Cassie, she would have told him about her friendly encounter with Roxy, who's her favourite.
Just because Gregory was distrustful and unempathic to the animatronics, doesn't mean every single person will react/think the same way.
Cassie was a long time regular at the Pizzaplex and was without friends, only getting one when Gregory showed up at her disaster of a party(how is she not relatable for many people?).
I get the sense that Cassie has more of a connection to the animatronics like Roxy, Daycare Attendant, Chica and Bonnie. That's why she's so willing to help them and shows sympathy in these dangerous situations.
@@prufan care to explain why?
@@justsomerandomperson6506 I already did.
fnaf ruin without the walking through walls thing looks so cool and (in my opinion of what I've seen) the atmosphere is good until the mask makes the place feel fake like a simulation the pizzaplex doesn't feel like a place falling apart when you walk through "glitchy objects."
Don’t worry about your “Bad Commentary” I’m 10X worse doing playthroughs 😂
what annoyed me the most about Cassie was how the game made her look dimwit and short cut. I mean, c'mon!
She isn't really dimwit more just gullible, she seems like the type of girl to put her needs below her just to put others needs up. She's just too caring and nice for her own good to the point where that caring and nice side of her is taken advantage off by the Mimic.
@jbiehlableGergory is just build different.
Ugh, thumbnail spoilers are the worst, especially since you can’t avoid them if you watch content about the game they’re spoiling. After a while, every FNAF UA-camr’s gonna be flooding you with the Mimic, so you only really have a limited time to actually experience the game before you get spoiled.
Also, yes, Daycare’s too short >:(
They should honestly just make a Superstar Daycare spinoff at this point
Me sitting in the dark channeling Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars: Good, good let the hate flow through you. Embarce the power of the dark side...
This was my attempt at a joke.
Sidious was such a funny guy.
16:21 I mean you got it kinda right, one character that we thought was a villain was actually a security program, it just wasn't Vanny it was The Entity aka MXES.
It is here at last! LET THE SALT BEGIN!
32:27 favourite quote so far: “oh, no it’s just the walls breathing” XD
I actually ragequit security breach on the Afton fight. Not because it was glitching out for me or anything, but because I’m just not good enough at the game. I got most of the endings, and had fun, but the Afton fight was harder than it needed to be, especially since the only other boss fight in the game is against Monty.
Try the freddoor startegy if you just want to win. Idk the main strategy for normal gameplay.
I only stopped playing normal security breach on the part where you have to get to the main stage before the music stops playing. Any attempt to move forward quickly without hiding means a guaranteed jumpscare, and if you take longer than 0.0005 seconds vanny homes in her mysterious omniscience.
"sticking things in and pulling them out"
I was barely listening to you and that woke me up
Not talking over the dialogue?! What a novel idea!!! Wish more UA-camrs tried that.
But seriously, as someone who thinks ruin is pretty cool, I feel like it has the same gameplay issue as Security Breach. All the parts that were tense and exiting were way too short and vastly outnumbered by padding sections. Security Breach had the Endos, and Ruin had the security nodes.
Edit: Also I got the ending spoiled as well. A UA-camr I watch occasionally made fan art of the ruined characters, and in the selection was The Mimic. (This was in the same week the game came out)
@jbiehlable Did they accidentally post a picture of The Mimic on the store?
@jbiehlable ahhhhhhh. Thanks UA-cam.
I have absolutely no clue why everyone was praising the *gameplay* of Ruin.
It is at its very best a low end limited remake of pac man. Most enemies pose no serious threat whatever, when there even are any enemies in an area, and those that do pose a threat only do so because the geography of the area forces the player into the area of extreme danger.
At least Pac-man is actually fun to play
@@theknightwithabadpictotall7639
I didn't need to read children's paperbacks to understand the antagonists of Pac-Man.
Mainly because it was not a glitchy mess unlike sb. And ruin had straight forward gameplay unlike sb and it tried to be scary
Me personally I pick it over sb any day, but I'ma mega FNAF fan not because of the gameplay but because of the characters and the very messy story of FNAF
Second half is decent but the only reason people praise it is because it’s better than security breach
Yeah
Sun: WE NEED TO BE HOLE!!!
NotReal: Jam it in!
"I was waiting for the game to begin the whole time"
That's EXACTLY how I felt. I distinctly remember Bonnie Bowling being the moment the game "started" to pick up, simply because the little music men managed to pose an actual threat. For once. I actually felt challenged trying to lure the little bastards and get the node before they came back, while avoiding one little music man (who I presume was bugged) who was following me around no matter how far I run from it.
And then it was over.
The only threat to the player is the MXES and he can be avoiding simply by taking off the mask, so he was never a threat. Without a threat, how am I meant to feel tension? And without tension, how is this game meant to achieve horror?
I get that, but I knew better than to play a Steel Wool game at launch. They increased the difficulty in later patches. Still quite easy, but not as extreme.
but bro ruin le redeemed security breach bro it's le scary now
I'm sorry your playthrough of Ruin was so frustrating! That's always a pain. I will say though, this video taught me that I would not mind watching you do playthrough content if you wanted to, personally. It didn't bother me at all that you felt like you were rambling, you have a nice voice to listen to and it was fun to just hear what was on your mind.
Man, shout-out to TinyBuild for having bigger balls than FNaF. For one, actually including blood and simply saying their antagonist "killed those kids."
If you hadn't heard yet, their cartoon show actually made Mr. "Hello, Neighbor" Peterson into a more intimidating villain than anything we've gotten from Steel Wool. Actually, the overall quality of the dialogue in that show avoids anything on the level of this "Well That Just Happened" verbal sludgefest that spews out of Cassie's mouth.
Ummmmmmmmm your right❔❔❔❔❔❔❔❔❔❔⁉️⁉️⁉️❔⁉️⁉️
It's charming to see like an authentic version of a let's play/critique. I feel like most youtubers either gas it up or lighten their critiques. Idk its refreshing. The salt was funny

i rage quit the endos in Ruin months ago😂 they are such a pain to deal with😢
Ive said it before and i still stand by it
Security breach mindbroke the fnaf community so bad that this below mediocre walking simulator with a protagonist that doesnt react to anything like an actual child (or even like an actual human being) is somehow seen as "peak"
"a protagonist that doesnt react to anything like an actual child (or even like an actual human being) " Disagree, Cassie does react in a more realistic way, she's a big improvement over Gregory.
This is just your own opinion, considering how many people liked Ruin/Cassie.

@@hankhill6404I genuinely have to agree here. If I was in Cassie’s position at her age I would have broke down crying for mom to pick me up but she seems so nonchalant about everything. Throughout the entire game she’s sorta like “yeah that just happened. Moving on-“ like is it that hard to write a convincing character?
(I'll probably leave more comments this is the first one though)
9:45 so you're telling me Cassie was on the ground floor in the kitchen, went back and DOWN, went into a water sewer thingy and somehow ended on THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MAP without drowning, it doesn't take very long to ruin across the main atrium but Cassie was a much longer distance than, she also changed levels
The VANNI mask COULD have worked if executed correctly
Imagine 1 of 2 scenarios
1
The mask takes you to a fantasy world and you navigate MENTALLY you don’t physically go anywhere
Or
2
The security nodes are not random objects being highlighted by the mask with no real devices attached
Instead the nodes were actual machines with keypads on them
Written on the machines are invisible ink somewhere and the mask reveals what it says
Which is how you turn it off
Which one do you prefer
Hmm... Those are actually both good ideas. I'm not sure if I'd prefer one or a sort of combo of two. 1. definitely would lead to some cool scenarios, but 2. could fix some of the issues for certain! And reminds me of that seeing tool from Bendy. :)
@@notrealnamenotatall2476 yeaaa
There was an episode from “The Batman TV show” where Bruce is trying to find a detective named “Yin” and goes through this “joker esc simulator” in trying to find her
The first option references that episode and that could have been the case where at the end, instead of finding out where Gregory physically is in the building, you release Glitchtrap
I guess we'll have to wait and see how the Blast To The Past and The Remains mods fix the main game and recreate what would've been. Whenever I rewatch the trailers, I get kind of mad and disappointed about the game that we didn't get (even if I liked the main game and loved Ruin).
20:45 I love how Security Breach has gotten such a reputation, you literally don't know what's glitching out intentionally and what's just glitching XD
This is why I really like your videos because you can like put into words like things I can’t. I didn’t really like Cassie I didn’t really know why but you some it up in like 4 words anyway keep doing what are you doing I love your videos
Overall, I enjoyed Security Breach's RUIN DLC, but I can see what you mean with the colors and lighting in the game NotRealName. As I had trouble to where it made navigating parts of the levels like Catwalks and the Bakery on my first time through to where I was suppose to go next that I found very confusing. But in the end it had a lot of great improvements that the Steel Wool team improved upon from the fans criticism with what they could've done better in the main game.
Hot Take saying you dont like Ruin. People like to praise ruin like it was the second coming of Jesus..but it just honestly..was not that good imo.
I ragequit at the bonnie bowl music man part BECAUSE OH MY GOD ITS SO FUCKIN COMPLICATED AND THEN AFTER I FINALLY UNDERSTAND HOW TO DO THE LEVEL ITS GLITCHED AND ONE OF THE MUSIC MEN IS ON TOP OF THE NODE AND ITS IMPOSSIBE AND I KEEP DYING AND IT TAKES ME LIKE 10 MINUTES TO RESPAWN BECAUSE OF THE SHITTY PS4 I WAS PLAYING ON AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRHHHH
Ill be real, i think the mimic is the dumbest addition to the series. It feels like a last minute retcon to backlash to the burntrap ending. The whole game's story was bad. Not just that one ending
Agreed. I'll admit, I could see them doing some interesting things with the Mimic to get at least _some_ mileage out of him while he's here, but the fact that he's even here in the first place kinda sucks.
The Roxy and Cassie backstory literally is the only reason to play Ruin, and I guess the Roxy character building in Security Breach and Help Wanted 2 are the only reasons to play those too, but might just be Roxy bias on my end.
Same. I think that the reason that I initially liked Ruin was because of Cassie and Roxy. But once you remove the duo, the DLC really isn't that good.
Those two characters carry the DLC.
Maybe it's just my theory brain and also my suspension of disbelief, but when I compare my playthrough to others, I got on really quickly that they mean Augmented Reality in a very literal way. "How does this technology work" "cus fazbear and it's a fictional world." Does that mean that things that are ruined or destroyed in the real life mean that you have to use the AR mask to travel through playgrounds that don't exist anymore any more annoying? .........No.
“Did Monty go omnom when he jumped out at me?!”😂😂
Some theorize that every VR object is created from Cassie's mind.... GPT's are the only real world program that could generate stuff based on vague prompts, and that needs gigabytes->Terabytes of generalized assets to do so, so the more likely case is that someone made all the VR assets in universe, instead of an AI. Which means that Vanny and/or the Mimic Chose Cassie as their target.
Makes sense, it's implied that Gregory was also specifically chosen to be a Glitchtrap follower or at least in the books with the whole source code conversation with Vanny and Glitchtrap "Have you selected one yet? "I have..." idk why Gregory might have been specifically chosen? maybe Gregory reminded The Mimic of David they are kinda similar.
I lean on the side that fazbear entertainment created inter dimensional travel but we’re so stupid they though it was just augmented reality
Becatse seriously that’s the only explanation as to how such interactions could work
The Vanni Mask is so confusing to be honest, first of all why would Fazbear Entertainment make a Technician Mask based on a serial killer? That is beyond messed up and problematic. Unless the Vanni mask came before Vanessa become Vanny, but then that would bring the question why did Vanessa make her serial killer fursona based on a Technician Mask? it's a did the chicken came first or the egg sorta question. Oh yeah the whole teleporting, going through worm holes and phasing through objects, I would like to believe that that's just Cassie's implant chip making her think and see that, as Helpi can still talk to Cassie without the Vanni Mask on and the disappearing plush babies in that one room. But if that's true then.. how much of Ruin is real? is it all fake? what actually happened??
It's very funny watching her slowly tilt over monty golf😂
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Cant wait to see the salt lol
Oh, that is some _crunchy_ audio bay _beeeeee_
What I love about this video is that it's so rare we hear you speak in such an off the cuff manner. You have a very particular cadence you use for your scripted videos, and it's so interesting to hear that same voice and a _bit_ of that same cadence, but with a bit more variety in tone and getting surprised by things. It just feels more "real", you know? Your voice is the thing that really endeared me to this channel so I'm always excited to hear you in different contexts. It's fun when you let yourself get a little weird, laugh at dumb jokes, sing little songs, and even when you get genuinely flustered and frustrated. You make a comment pretty early on in the playthrough about being cringe, but sometimes it's fun to see someone embrace the cringe when they're really passionate about something. Plus, you're a largely FNAF-based channel, there's just a little cringe baked into the whole thing.
Thank you! 8D That's a huge compliment, really. I normally like to have all my thoughts together so I don't ramble, but it's a relief to know that it still worked. ^_^ I might do it again sometime, honestly!
@@notrealnamenotatall2476It's okay to ramble sometimes. You're fun to listen to, so listening to you ramble is still fun!
I enjoyed ruin so much but I’m sorry you had a bad experience with it💔
Apart from the Daycare being really short, I LOVED Ruin, and I'm sorry you couldn't enjoy it as much as I did, I guess it isn't a game for everyone, for me it was scary and perfectly challenging.
Ima fs watch this later but ppl rage quitting can be pretty funny. I watched gameplay only and the Roxy raceway segment and the Monty Golf segment always seemed the most annoying part of the game.
I like the idea of the secuirty nodes but not when its implimented to every SINGLE ROOM you enter in ruin
I was able to finish ruin with my sisters help… only for the game itself to sabotage me on a second play through. THE FLOOR DISAPPEARED AND I COULDNT PROCEED
I am starting to notice an alarming trend of floors giving in anything Security Breach related.
"I don't want that guy all up in my stuff! Take it off!"
50:53
Another youtuber, LS Mark, said something kinda similar, the game ended when things were just getting started
You're getting chased by the mimic, starting to learn about it, and then the game ends "PRESS E TO SKIP!?" Playing ruin it just wasn't all that fun, having recently played the dark revival I can see this took a lot of inspiration from it to help improve it, but something about ruin is off compared to dark revival, while I'd say both are on the same platform, bendy did something right that fnaf horribly missed
I think it was a mix of time constraints and the fact that Ruin was built on top of Security Breach. So, there probably had to be a lot of tweaking and fixing to make it work. Dark Revival had a lot more time to work things out- and it shows! It's not easy to break that game.
You doing a playthough on this. That's a nice little change up from the standard videos you do. Oh! Maybe you can do more stuff like this in the future as well.
What if Jeremy (Cassies Dad) is M.X.E.S.
the sound quality upsets my ears but it's a really chill vid overall so I'm stayin'
Wow i didn't know you really angry❤️😱😨
Wow, there's a lot of Cassie slander in the comments, it's a bit disappointing. Since she was a really likeable and relatable character. She's the first fnaf protagonist that I actually liked, especially from the games, since I was let down by SB in that aspect.
And there’s people saying Roxy’s role was forced, Which is not true, I don’t think it is
pain THE GAME.

55:50 the mimic slander will never stop, will it?
But being fr, I really enjoyed seeing you rage quit RUIN. It's just so entertaining to see someone struggle through a game and get mad. XD But I can relate..
Poor Sun, you didn't have to roast his song like that- 😭😂
Great video but I’ll come back later because I’m watching a video on astralspiff playing peaks of yore
If you like frustrating climbing games like getting over it I recommend

I'm about to watch that! 8D

I fell asleep during Markiplier’s playthrough of ruin. Something I’d never done in any of his fnaf let’s plays or any let’s play for that matter. It’s a walking simulator done in the least engaging way.
Security Breach sucked but at least the glitches made it entertaining to watch.
Also SB was entertaining because of the silly characters and dialogue
mmm TINTIGLES

huzzah we can now have zooming in videos. too bad i use it as a podcast anyway but still HUZZAH
Notrealname salt coming to save the day!!! This was so funny and yeah I agree with all your criticism of Ruin. It’s just boring it’s not enjoyable minus a few parts. Like SB is more of a hot mess but at least a hot mess is interesting
Yep, it's official. I will watch anything you put out.
Ruin certainly isn't perfect, but the biggest thing that made it worth it for me was going in blind.
I had to work the day it came out, which meant I had to stay off the internet until I got to play it.
I also didn't touch the books and basically knew nothing about the mimic, that definitely helped, but even knowing nothing the entire Gregory thing screamed "trap".
I had a goofy smile when we helped Eclipse, I found Monty being a feral guard dog amusing, giving Chica back her voice felt like a small victory, and I was genuinely shocked with Freddy's reveal and chase.
Oh and I absolutely did not flip when Roxy showed hesitation and remorse...
I also didn't cry harder than Cassie at the end with Roxy, nope, totally didn't.
I stopped playing RUIN shortly after getting past Monty's first encounter, after messing around with the golf minigame. For me, the mini golf was the most enjoyable part because even though its difficulty is way too high (imho) it's a nice little breather. No jumps. Just golf. As an easily startled person it offered a nice momentary break to gather myself before the next segment lol
(52:50) That is a problem that needs to be fixed, people needs to stop, I guess clickbaiting, cause stuff like this happens. Sorry that your experience was ruined.
I maybe disagree with some point's, but i'm definitely agree with base game SB being much more enjoyable to replay. The only thing that was motivating me to play Ruin second time was Roxy/Freddy and necessity to get more footage. But i don't know that i will call it a "bad quality" to have. Ruin just feels like a completely different game style.
Overall i liked both a lot, just for different reasons.

this video was hilarious and i love the amount of effort put into it. i think all of those little youtube "scrub bar chapter" thingies were a great addition

32:42 hay hay stay out of my shed!!! Sorry had to reference something this very am be real It feels salty just like you said it would be 😊
I like how you use Novel Charlie as a self-insert
Looking back on ruin, it was pretty disappointing, when I played sb I can see all the love and care (that was rushed out and band-aided together), when I play ruin all I get is a small company bending over cus people didn't like Burntrap
While sb is objectively bad, I always came back to it every other month just to admire the pizzaplex or play around with the (broken) animatronic ai even though I 100% it, with ruin I don't see myself ever coming back after completing it, it's not fun, I didn't find it scary, and the mimic just makes me mad undoing burntraps potential and vannys non-existent potential
56:36 Based thicc Vanny mod enjoyer
Son of a… ok so I saw a thumbnail of a video saying like “What did mask bot say to Cassie before shutting down” and so I came here to get an unbiased look at it and 11:10 it straight up really sounds like he’s saying “I am your father” and I don’t know how to feel about that
I think it's just garbled words, because if you listen closer it also sounds like he's saying 'fasten your' and I know he ain't saying that. XD
i think it would be cool if you did streams (if you can fix all the technical issues)
Ruin is a bit easy so....
Sounds like a s..sk...ski....SKILL ISSUE-
Bro, i think that Steel Wool needs to do some update on its games.
@jbiehlable XD
I think Scott needs to give FNAF to a different company at this point
