    This video was actually a joy to make! Now remember if you don't like Sammy then just swap in Edwin's son and their side of things and the theory stays the same! Just a character swap is all that's required! I'm not super well versed on the books yet but have been getting taught by some people behind the scenes! I don't want to flat out say they can't happen in the games so let your imagination run wild with this theory! Just remember to keep everything kind, calm, respectful, and that it's just a theory!
    Also again thank you to Cryonide for joining this video! They were a joy to work with and they're honestly quite funny!

      Part of the reason I think this theory is heat is because it’s reflective of the original Frankenstein story which is one of my favorite books but also the mimic and Frankenstein are incredibly similar characters when looked at this way. And modern media used the Frankensteins monster formula so often, and Scott is a very cultured guy

    5:43 Edit for clarity: I meant Nightmarionne was non-canon for FNAF 4 at the time of release, before gas, discs, MikeDreamer, etc.
    If the dreamer *cannot* see or imagine Nightmarionne, then they likely *did not* see any version of Puppet. No Puppet, no Charlie death scene seen.
    MM window runner can still be CC or Mike, it just can't be running off to Charlotte's death if they're also the dreamer.

      @@terreliv Nightmarionne at this point is definitely canon with appearances in UCN, HW, FNAF SB, RUIN, and HW2, which are all canon games. Maybe in the pre UCN yeah but it's made so many in universe cameos I'd say at this point it is canon in some aspect. Physically in UCN and HW and as a stalking plushie in SB, RUIN, and HW2. And in order for him to be in HW, in some way someone working at Fazbear Entertainment had to have seen or known about him.
      Also I didn't bring up Nightmarionne in the video if memory serves.

      @@tformerdude6788 For now it makes sense, though one of my friends has a theory that I can't speak on that actually explains how Nightmarionne could appear in FNAF 4. Also I never said that he was canon to everything BUT FNAF 4, I'm saying he was non canon until later on in FNAF lore.
      That's just my explanation for now until that theory comes out. As it is odd that Nightmarionne does keep appearing, even in places that aren't fazbear entertainment related, though you could make an argument it's due to the fake games and he's just a character in the fake game series in the lore.

    Amazing theory! I've always been a big supporter in the idea that The Mimic has to have some role throughout the early FNAF era ever since Secret of The Mimic was announced. So by connecting him to Midnight Motorist was something I never considered and I liked all the pieces of evidence you brought up. Coincidentally I also uploaded a theory on Midnight Motorist yesterday, so it was nice seeing a different perspective using The Mimic. Keep up the good work!

      Just checked out that video and it was SO GOOD! I absolutely enjoyed it! It actually helped me with a 1987 version I've been working on for next months upload! I was thinking that for a possibility that someone was trying to go somewhere that was familiar to them to get help or something as whatever it was, was trying to show Mike or CC something. So similar thought process! I'm working on a 1987 version that has some similar story beats but with different reasons!

    -we have no evidence to assume the footsteps belong to a suit/animatronic that we weren't aware of yet. FFPS and UCN were Scott's gift to fans, and the story was entirely self contained and answerable From FNAF 1 to UCN.
    -The Runaway cannot make it on foot to the scene of Charlotte's death. William driving 200 mph, still takes several minutes to make it home.
    •If William knew that place was where the Runaway went, why didn't he just drive back to get him. Why would he knowingly let his son get to there & not go back into his car and stop him? (my answer is because JR's is where the Runaway goes, it's the only place William doesn't have access to. )
    -we don't know if Sammy exist in the games. Henry never mentions him
    -we don't know if Edwin and David exist

      However the story can change in the future with things as it was a nice present things still needed to be elaborated on and it left room for future interpretation with new points of evidence coming to light to this day, there's also technically no evidence for it to belong to any known animatronic as we don't even see a giveaway sign that it's one animatronic or entity,William was a horrible father too, in the pinned comment I also said I'm not too well versed on the books atm which is why I said to use your imagination on the creator and child of the creator 😅
      Everything else is in the video so I'll let you find those answers there. 😉

      Thank you! It is still possible though I agree. Since SOTM takes place 1979 to our knowledge currently, if MM happens in 1983 that gives a decent amount of time for it to be damaged, maybe the reason why it's more damaged than the others is because the Lion was used more?
      Also after relooking at the lion suit there was so many more connections like the claws, large mouth with "sharp" teeth and more!

    I don’t believe this because for players of Pizzeria Simulator, it would be impossible to come to this conclusion.
    That suit, and even the Mimic, although they are relevant to early in the timeline, we’re introduced years after the game released.
    Because should have been able to solve this minigame at the time or even with Ultimate Custom Night, I highly doubt that the one who left the footprints is someone from post that point.
    Not only is it unlikely that Scott intended that, there’s no way any of us could have solved it.
    That’s why I find it incredibly hard to believe.

After all new characters can be added to the past in fnaf, Michael Afton, cc, Henry, and other characters where there was little or no proof of them existing but later they did.

    This story goes against what we know about the mimic from the books, in its PoV we see how it thinks and reacts and its entirely robotic, repeating actions its been taught with no knowledge of why or what its doing. It wouldnt process Charlies murder and seek help, it would mimic and repeat the actions it just saw and kill a second kid in the alley or mimic the puppet and lie down on top of Charlie. If its not taught "seek help" its not going to.
    And while the modern Mimic is relatively advanced and able to successfully Gaslight a Child and Glare Behind Bars to show a facade of emotion, thats after like 50 years and getting more data from VR and the Pizzaplex

    • @NarrowRaven
      @NarrowRaven  Місяць тому

      Though it is called the Mimic, it's an A.I that has been shown to learn concepts and form opinions, as in Ruin it learns how to defeat a security system entity while stuck behind a concrete wall. Glitchtrap which is also the mimic of some form also learned and also seems to have some form of desire such as not wanting to be destroyed at the end of HW2, so it seems the mimic programming can learn alongside mimic.
      It doesn't have to be flat our taught something by what we see it do, it just has to think about it and will eventually learn it.
      If anything the mimic is the closest thing to a human thinking robot we have in FNAF. It's like a kid, it can learn things and can mimic them but can also interpret them.

    • @TheWizardMus
      @TheWizardMus Місяць тому

      @NarrowRaven while yes the Mimic does do those things, it's after a lot of time and data that this theory doesn't have. The Mimic learns about the security system and M.X.E.S. through the Helpi AI which it then mimics, and Glitchtrap puts its hands up to defend itself, like some one would do when attacked or jump scared in VR.
      Your theory puts the Mimic in 1983 where it's AI would be far more simplistic and robotic, where it merely copies what it's learned, like putting away groceries or sorting animatronics, but not understand what it's doing properly, like if the object in front of it is groceries or a Fazbear employee.
      Hence, the Mimic would have to learn "find help" as a response to an event.
      The Mimic also doesn't recognize death or pain, it fundamentally just can't understand that it's killing a person by removing their head.
      Like I said, we see the Mimic's PoV in the books and it's very telling, it doesn't have thoughts or opinions, it has tasks to perform and targets to perform them on. That's the state it would be in prior to absorbing data from the Pizzaplex and VR.

    • @NarrowRaven
      @NarrowRaven  Місяць тому

      @TheWizardMus I do agree with some however if Jackie is the mimic, the mimic is already quite smart and advanced and by agony and dark remnant terms, it can understand death and pain, as no matter what agony is in the mimic due to its origin in the books. The mimic to get knowledge via helpi would be to also learn to hack into the helpi system too.
      Jackie is also able to think fast and even toys with you from my knowledge, so if Jackie is mimic then he's already somewhat advanced and has at least 4 years before mm to build it's a.i.
