    *EDIT:* 1.1.1 removes the audio button, presumably because there was no consequence to leaving it on all the time. Now, the Marionette's song will always play when viewing the room they're in on the camera.
    It's nice to be motivated and excited to make a video on a topic that I'm able to speak so positively about! I no longer need to hesitate when people ask what my favorite fangame is. I'm _so stoked_ that JR's ended up being _SO GOOD!_ It's weird because it's not even like there's a single mechanic or design or moment that makes it so excellent. It's the whole package; the game's elements come together in the most cohesive way. I absolutely adore JR's, and I can't wait to play it some more! Go download it now and check it out (also follow the game and Darroc while you're at it!): gamejolt.com/games/JRs/726241

      In my opinion the game is good but lacks a lot of things, all the nights except the last ones are monotone, and i feel like the characters lack personality since there are very few gameplay differences between animatronics

    I’d also like to stress something a lot of people don’t. The way the animatronics stand, with their limbs sprawled and their tall frame in an slumped, robotic stance, makes them look HUGE. These robots like gigantic. You can see them on the cameras towering over everything else in the room, their heads practically hitting the pipes and rebar running along the ceiling. The robots in the series were always big, but these guys are some absolute units.

    The art in this game is very good. I wouldn’t expect a point-and-click game to also have sections where you use w, a, s, and d.
    I also love how the game has iconic characters (i.e Foxy, Freddy, Bonnie, The Marionette), but also a few new characters, such as the ghost and balloon baby, a parody of balloon boy from FNAF 2. This, at least in my opinion, is the ultimate FNAF game.

    I think jr’s is great, but there are something’s I would like to change.
    1: when you repair an animatronic there is only one mini game, it would be cool if every animatronic had a different mini game.
    2: the 6th night has some tips in text. it would probably be better if pallbeare said the tips. (This would take some time to make)
    3: if you called a hunted animatronic it would jump scare you first when you in to the room to fix them or after 8-15 seconds.

    I cannot stress enough that people should definitely check out JR’s. In fact, it is definitely different from most FNAF fangames because of its high quality and interesting mechanics and gameplay. And while it’s a biased opinion, I love the game even more because unlike most of the official FNAF games, it isn’t lore based. It’s just spooky robots haunting you and nothing more than that. It’s definitely one of the best fangames I’ve seen and I’m excited for what games like FNAF+ have in store for us in the future.

    Ah, Jr's Y'know I always expected to be in jr's. Of course I don't even know why, as I as a character take place years and years after the story of jr's does, And not to mention how jr's isn't really part of the fnaf lore. That gets me wondering how honored I should feel for taking part in such a franchise, Of course everybody makes fan games of all the characters that they love- But you never realize how people love characters like me. But you don't really ever see people actually making fan games of characters like us. Its all "Hey I re made Five Nights At Freddys 2" Or, "Hey I re made Five Nights At Freddys 1!" But its never fan games regarding us. And by "Us" I mean the large amount of fruity colored characters like My good friend Orrville ™. And I think that lack of variety can hurt the franchise in multiple ways. Mainly because if you do the same things, over and over, It starts to get repetitive and boring. Sure fangames have changed and all of them are very well made but- It doesn't hurt to branch out a little bit. A- And I think that's all I have to touch on this subject for now my friends.

The possession gameplay style is very unique and well thought out, it was executed exquisitely by the devs. And of course the 6th night. This single night filled me with a ridiculous amount of hype.

    In my opinion playing with a friend without spoilers, we came with the conclusion, this game takes place AFTER the bite of 87, and we are playing as Jeremy fighting for his life in the purgatory/limbo
    Paulbear is clearly based on the Golden Freddy/Fredbear animatronic, and in the extras section he tells us about how he got to that limbo and what happened to him was similar to what happened to us, a clear reference to Paulbear being the victim of the bite of 83 by Fredbear, being this in reality the soul of Cassidy, who has spent 4 years alone waiting for someone who can save her soul, Jeremy being in a similar situation.
    That the game takes place after the bite of 87 Jeremy being in a coma explains several things such as his relationship with Paulbear, the giant brain above The Barrens or the freemode where we talk to Paulbear, and the role that Mangle has as the main antagonist of the game.
    And as a last detail, the first 5 nights where you have to investigate the animatronic suspected of paranormal activity reminds A LOT of what the community did since FNAF 1 trying to discover, based on clues, who was responsible for the bite of 87, looking for details such as handprints on the animatronics, the behavior of these, etc, just like we do in the game night 1 to 5.
    The story from this point seems to me more congruent, interesting and deep for the lore of FNAF because it gives much more importance and explanation to what was the bite of 87 at the hands of Mangle than in the official games was ever given, also connecting what happened in the bite of '83 and Jeremy's fight for his life. I don't know if the story of this video is confirmed by the creator to be the correct story, but I feel that this point of view is much better than a prequel for FNAF 2, tying loose ends instead of creating more

    I don't know how I feel about the Animatronic designs; I think they're well designed and effective, but the idea that they just naturally look like that is silly given the context of it being a children's restaurant. I think Balloon Boy and The Puppet are the most egregious examples. I think Bonnie and maybe Foxy capture that unintentionally uncanny mascot design best. But then again, Mr. Noseybonk and Ratafak Plachta exist, so the puppet's look isn't too much of a stretch

    The idea of Mangle being the final boss is really interesting, we've never really seen it before. That said, it does cause a bit of confusion in terms of its relation to FNaF 2 Mangle. is it meant to be the same animatronic? Because its toy appearance and the stories from Phone Dude suggest otherwise but it would be really cool if that was the origin. Maybe the Ghost found a way out of its prison, possessed Toy Foxy and f*cked it up to make it look like her Mangle?

    What I don't get:
    Paulbear says he died centuries ago. There's no way JR's existed a century ago. What's his business with JR's then?? What's the GHOST's business with JR's?
    Why did the main character become so protective of Paulbear so quickly? Paulbear gave me the vibes of an untrustworthy character, and just didn't seem that much of a "friend" to me (he reminds me of Garfield). I just didn't see the "bond" grow between the two characters before that heart-to-heart night (which didn't even feel natural to me) so I don't get why the main character straight up went "I will die for you" after like 4 days I think.
    I'm not saying the story is bad, I just think the writing is a little... Uh...
    Also how the heck do you stab a ghost
    But yea I loved the mangle boss it was one of the most exciting moments I've ever seen in a fnaf game (fangame or not!). And I'm in love with the designs lol

    I mean it’s deffo a different sort of game. In my opinion it definitely is NOT better than the og games. It is good but not gonna lie I don’t really like it. Not sure why but I think it’s just kind of simple and boring and confusing due to the animatronics and 1 ghost. I think the only animatronic that could kill you is the one haunted but no any can if they get too low. It’s a good idea and great graphics but in my opinion I prefer the original type games. However I would love a paranormal investigator FNAF game made in my mind but everybody likes different things. This isn’t my sort of game but the creators did a fantastic job. Congrats

I think the clue hunting and using a bit of process of elimination to win the nights is what really differentiates this game from not only other fnaf games but any other game out there. And that final boss battle paying homage to fnaf 2 is just beautiful. Really a work of art.

    I find this video very hard to agree to. After I finished JR the first thought that I got was that the game mechanics weren’t deep at all. A night just went like this: you look in the cameras for about 40 seconds, then you report an animatronic, followed by you calling for repairs for another and then repeat. When the stability was low on a bunch of animatronics all you had to do was just to find the haunted one and then call every low stability robot in to repairs. I swear to god I spent most of the game just looking at the conveyor belt rolling my thumbs. The later nights were actually just relieving because the ghost would appear right away again after reporting it making me not have to wait. Knowing that I could just indefinitely call for repairs on every robot as long as I knew which the haunted one was shows that there really wasn’t so much depth in it at all. Really cool and original aspect though. This is also the least scary horror game I’ve ever played. Never was I stressed and panicked like Fnaf 1 or 2, and every time you guessed something wrongly either you knew that it was the wrong guess or you just had to wait for the conveyor belt to come. Jumpscares for all the animatronics we’re all boring and kind of looked the same. The sound design for the jumpscares wasn’t that great either. This game is a really nice idea executed poorly with beautiful animatronics that never make use of their scariness. Story’s all right, there wasn’t so much to it but yeah. Sixth night was really bland in terms of gameplay as well. I love Fnaf 2 because the stress and panicking makes it scary. But I never saw any animatronic in the vents, they just appeared in the office randomly. And neither did is see Balloon Baby. The mangle fight was cool but then again incredibly easy. I managed to get it on my second try and I only looked at the cameras twice. Scott Cawthon had a way to make the gameplay and music and animatronics and animations really unnerving. JR creators had a nice idea and nice rendering but that’s about it.

  • @fakeorchestra4260
    @fakeorchestra4260 2 роки тому +3

    Jumpscares were never scary, they were surprising and made you startled. That's not the same thing as being geniuently scary. Jr's also isn't really scary, but it is FUN, and that's what it matters. Most of FNAF games are a collection of mechanics that barely work together if not undermining themselves at all times, meanwhile Jr's? It's just a simple, well designed game. It is something actually competent, which is more that I can say about most of this series.

    • @theftking
      @theftking  2 роки тому +2

      I disagree; I think the _threat_ of a jumpscare + environmental tension and ambiance does add a lot to horror, even if the jumpscare _itself_ isn't that persistently horrifying. Jumpscares have their place in horror; you just can't rely on them _alone._ That said, I agree regarding the purpose of all games being fun.

    • @fakeorchestra4260
      @fakeorchestra4260 2 роки тому +1

      @@theftking For the first time yes, but environmental tension+jumpscare gets very old, very quickly. It has its place in horror, but it cannot be the basis of horror like in FNAF. You have to keep up the tension somewhat, releasing it in a jumscare just kills it completely and the next time you meet with a jumpscare, it loses its punch.

    Jr's is the third restaurant after Fredbear's Family Diner (First Restaurant) and Freddy Fazbear Pizza (FNAF 1) went bankrupt due to The "Missing Child" and "The Bite '87"
    JR's was managed independently by Henry Emily, after he cut off his partnership with William Afton because he was suspected of being the main suspect in "The Missing Children".
    Its a LOOOOOOOONG story
    But, after several bloody incidents at JR's, Finally Sister Location appears. Built by William Afton under the name "Circus Baby's Party And Rentals" in a basement.
    Btw, the character we play in Sister's Location is Michael Afton, the eldest son of William Afton. Michael went there only to find his father who had "disappeared" for several weeks without a word. (William Afton was killed in FNAF 3)
    Michael never found his father anywhere, until something happened to him.
    And, Sister's location means the location of Michael's younger sister who was accidentally killed by Circus Baby. Long story, and finally Animatronics CB was moved to Circus Baby's Party And Rental (which was originally at Freddy Fazbear Pizza)

      @@dragonborn9124 When did I say I prefer the security breach designs? And I know its a horror game but the JR deigns just look so goofy that they just cant scare me. Freddy and bonnie just looks so fat (Also Bonnie looks like an old grandpa), Chica's face just looks odd and not in a scary way, Foxy has such a goofy expression that it also ruins the fear, Balloon baby and the puppet are good designs but are also not scary.
      Mangle is the only one who is amazing and scary, The four legs, the owl head and the incomplete look make it one of my favourite design in the entirety of fnaf. But fnaf SB has neither good or scary, they don't look bad but as fnaf design's they suck hard due to them not even being remotly scary and the nosies they make like the grunting noises just make me laugh so hard cause of something that adults do.
      So not only are the design not scary in the slightest but the noises they make make me laugh, Other than the animatronic Design JR's is scary in other ways just as the creepy atmosphere.
      Fnaf 1, 4 and Mangle are my favourite design in the game because they are scary
      fnaf 1 designs are just scary enough. Not to scary and not to goofy they strike a perfect balance between child friendly esc designs and a horror robot design.
      Mangle is scary because she doesn't attack immediately. Keep the camera up for to long, she attacks. Thats what works, the unpredictability of when she will attack making it far more scary because you don't know when she is going to attack. And just like JR's mangle it looks good.
      Fnaf 4 is basically "Screw a perfect balance of child friendly and horror JUST MAKE THEM PURE HORROR!!!" Nightmare is the textbook example. the pure black body, the red eyes and large teeth make it so scary, Also just like Mangle the jumpscare feels a lot less predictable. the other nightmares are scary because of the game mechanic of sound. It forces you to crank that volume to 100 so when they jumpscare you it so loud that it make you jump. y'know the "The first night is never that bad in any of the game" from markiplier, cuz if you do you may know that nightmare Chica jumpscares him there and even though I knew the jumpscare was coming I was still scared because its loud and the designs are scary.
      SB is just "Oh hey lets give this a 39,99 Price and make it so not scary " Nothing about SB is scary. Not one, The blob at least looks slightly unsettling but not scary. JR has Mangle and creepy atmosphere on its side while SB has a mildly creepy esc animatronic and thats it, the JR and SB designs are equal to each other not "sEcwaTy bWEEcH BetTeR cOOz n0t Scawy" Jr's is scarier than security breach because Mangle and Atmosphere while security breach has nothing
