    Springtrap is my favourite visual design in the entire series, no contest.

    • @Templarfreak
      @Templarfreak 4 роки тому +256

      he is also by-far the most complex AI, at least out of the original 3 games anyway. Can't really say Sister Location or Pizzeria Sim have more complex AI since the former is highly scripted and the latter's "night" sections aren't the main attraction to the game and thus aren't as polished as the other games, so I won't count those.

    @w0lfkiller 4 роки тому +282

    IMO the thing that sets Springtrap apart from the other animatronics is like you said: he feels TOO alive. The other animatronics are scary but still very clearly robots. They have specific patterns and one main goal: get to the player and stuff/kill them. Springtrap too has specific patterns and the goal of killing the player, but he's much more malicious about it. He actually TOYS with the player, he is actively trying to scare the player and make them suffer (ex. strutting past the window or peering into the door.) That type of human behavior from something that looks like a machine is absolutely chilling.

I remember watching Dawko's old videos, I remember his old intro, I remember when he messed with the jumpscare audio o see if there were hidden sounds, when he would throw out crazy theories.

    I remember one time years ago I woke up and had a hallucination where Springtrap was staring at me at the foot of my bed. He was reaching to pull open his face when I closed my eyes for 3-4 seconds and opened them again, and then he was gone. That was the last time I can recall having any kind of nightmare or hallucination of any sort. Hell of a note to end on.

    Five Nights at Freddy’s Three is the only game of the series I absolutely refuse to touch. There is no amount of money you could pay me to play it, I just won’t do it. The reason for this? Springtrap scares me more than *anything* in a game has ever scared me. I don’t sleep well after thinking about him for too long during the day. I just cannot handle him. Let alone be stuck in a controlled environment with him. Something about Springtrap turns off my brain being able to rationalize fact from fiction and I get nauseous. He’s also my favorite character, but damn do I hate him.

As someone who was also around and very involved with the community and the rumors and stuff at the time, I initially assumed this series would be missing quite a bit of the... “feeling” that had been going around for each game’s release. But I’m glad to be wrong - I’m very glad that you, as you also experienced this stuff firsthand, are the one to make it. I can tell it comes from a place of genuine love of the franchise and I’m very impressed with the amount of things you’ve managed to include, especially when it comes to the rumors and lore and speculation at the time. Very good work!

    I love how in fnaf 3 it was a 1v1. In prior games the animatronics certainly seemed to have a goal, but overall pretty disorganized. It was different with springtrap. He seemed calculated, more mature and intelligent, and seemed to have a much deeper hatred towards you. You and your tools vs him and his tools. It added a layer of intensity to it because it wasnt just fending off robo bitches anymore it was a fight to the death.
