- The Entire History Of FNAF (ft. @Dawko , @FusionZGamer , @Razzbowski , @8BitRyan , @djsterf )
I poured my heart into this video. FNAF has been a part of my life since I was 14 and the fact that it's already been 8 years blows my mind. This video is a passion project, a look at the past 8 years through my lens. I want to thank everyone who has ever supported me and this channel. I hope you enjoy The Entire History Of FNAF :)
Disclaimer: This video is not perfect, it does not cover everything, I could've done that but the video would be 3x longer haha. If I accidentally got a date wrong or a piece of information wrong please remember that I am just human, I make goofs.

Hi fusion
Facts
Thanks Fusion 💙

It was hella well made
I genuinely do not know where I'd be without this franchise, It's been a part of my life for almost half of it at this point. Thank you for making this, I can already tell this is a tribute that the series deserves.

It’s crazy that Scott quickly produced a second game in only a month and it is arguably one of the greatest horror games of all time.
And he didn’t even have a second game planned his original plan was it to be one-way horror that could be replayed it’s crazy he came up with a backstory too
"One of the greatest horror games of all time"
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@@unrealomida1 the first 3 games were planned out before he released the first one
@@TheMysteriouswatcherit litterally is though... its made millions
It is impressive how quickly he put out a second game but it was 3 months in between games not just 1 month still a really short time but definitely longer than a month
Not going to lie, this FNAF at Freddies game has potential! I can see it being huge 😬
?
yes
Pls these replies 😭
Uh.... what?!?!?
Are you saying it's not a huge game?!?! Lol
Originally clicked on the video thinking it was going to be a timeline of events within the world of FNAF. However because this was so well done, and included so much I didn't know, naturally I had to watch through the entire video. I have major respect for how much time and effort you put into making this for the eighth anniversary. It looks amazing, great job!

I remember checking the FNAF subreddit frequently back in 2015. That page and the Roller Coasters and Daft Punk subreddits were my go-to sites during college (my grades may have suffered slightly). I actually wrote a paper comparing FNAF to Frankenstein and posted that on the Reddit page. Good memories!

I can’t believe it went from a struggling guy on his last chance to what it is now. Even if you don’t like FNAF there’s a good chance you’ve heard of it. It’s honestly insane
I know,the sad thing is the society has come to this stupid cancelling thing,and now that legend of a guy is gone,at least he is happy and has a good family,I wish him a great life!
@@DeletedUser_0000 So true,thats probably the reason for security breach,its not scary at all,it doesnt have much secrets,but i hope he was thinking lf retiring anyway so he didnt have a big problem with it
@@DeletedUser_0000 yeah,at least it added some lore but ngl i was expecting something different didn't expect the story type security breach is lol
@@DeletedUser_0000 he was getting threatened by Twitter I believe because he's supported Trump and his Twitter I think I'm not 100% sure but I think it is and they kept on threatened him so he stopped making video games of Five Nights at Freddy's but he's taking time off because he was getting threatened by him and his family by somebody we don't know who but someone in his Twitter I believe but so we gave it to his friend and that's how what happened but I think he's just taking a break for everything because what happened so I think he will be back but it's going to be taken for like a couple years or two hopefully sooner but I hope he will come back and finish FNAF security breach but yeah
@@DeletedUser_0000 yeah true but like I said I think he's going to take a break and he will come back cuz guess what he always comes back but he has to take a break because that threatened by Twitter whatever was messed up because if he didn't take a break or whatever they would have hurt his family which he didn't want that so that's what he did so I hope he will come back and he will and finish the game but like I said he always come back
Conclusion of all of this?
Scott was and still is one madman with a twisted sense of humor, a genius, and a man with a big heart for his creation and all his fans.
Seeing the old footage of the first Fnaf game, and now seeing where it is today is just amazing. I'm glad I stuck around long enough to enjoy them
Same here
Should have released the book on the original date, my birthday…

FNAF genuinely has one of the most inspirational upbringing stories :D
Agreed :)
True.
Yeah Scott was gonna end his life and FNAF helped him a lot and God helped him a lot too
@@CackleTheory no someone said that he would stop game developing

1:16:37 Hands down the best part of the video for me. Audibly laughed out loud because John’s facial expression was just too perfect for that teaser. Plus the visible eye-twitch made it look like at the moment he had tuned into what he was doing. Followed by an immediate and short analysis of what he tuned into was just too funny to me, man. Great video John, if you see this it really is a great video. Happy 8th Birthday FNAF.
Same lmao
Thanks for traumatizing me john🥲
The discomfort in his eyes 🤣🤣
I was 10 when I found FNAF in 2014 and never would I have thought that, at 18 years old, I’d still be here. Thank you John for making this video! Loved reliving all the moments from down the years.
aw, it was like you were raised with it! i remember first finding fnaf in 2016 (when rumors of sister location were around). as a giant fan of creepy stuff, robots, and animals… a videogame about creepy robot animals seemed like a miracle sent from heaven for my 8 year old self. i never played any of the games, (except for security breach which i enjoyed SO much despite it’s reputation) but i definitely lingered in the community since that year. i’m proud to say i was one of those kids who literally fangirled over foxy, made my own “fnaf show stage” out of a cardboard box, and i always loved roleplaying as the security guard on the playground with friends. im in highschool as of now, and i will always have a special place in my heart for the fnaf series. so yes! although i thought i finally grew out of the fandom, here i am ranting about it all over again :’)
@@gaysonorthotdaughta I was 6 when FNAF was released. Me and my cousin, who I grew up playing console games and a variety of video games with, went crazy. I watched a shit ton of gameplays, fell into the illimitable world of theories and lore enthusiasts, and even discovered the many fan music works. It did scare me a bit.. Since I was a little kid. I used to be afraid of my teddy bear that usually sat on the top shelf of my open closet. But honestly, that feeling was the most fun I had as a kid. Growing up around parents that weren't always around and not very many friends due to my differences from other kids (autism), it was a comforting thing to get into. I genuinely think FNAF is a special interest of mine, and has been since I was so little. I've played FNAF 1, FNAF 2, FNAF 3, a bit of FNAF 4, FNAF AR, Ultimate Custom Night, Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator but not SL, Help Wanted or Security Breach (though I've watched many MANY gameplays and pretty much know how to play them). I used to do FNAF RPs on Minecraft and ROBLOX too! I've been a nerd for the lore and the history for so long. Even with Scott not developing FNAF games anymore, he's still always to thank.
dude I also found out abt it in 2014 and now Im 18 too. cool similarity.
I was 21 when FNAF 1 came out and I was home from college at my parents house during summer break and I downloaded the game and tried it out. I remember being so scared I couldn't even play it past night 2 lmao. Here I am 8 years later still scared to finish FNAF 4, I hate jumpscares hahaha
@@craigferge4702 LMAOO SAME FNAF WILL FOREVER BE SCARY TO ME
This video gave me whiplash and intense nostalgia. To think I've been here since the very start from when I was 12-13 and *STILL* try to keep up with the games and its lore now that I am 20. It's amazing the amount of impact an initally desperate attempt to keep up with creating games had on our generation. Scott got what he wanted in the end as well as creating an entire new community and defining a new entity in the horror genre with video gaming. This journey has been amazing and I believe I'd still keep up even in the coming decade haha.
Facts im glad i was along for the ride since i was 12 im now 20:)
Games had on our generation . Scott got what he wanted in the end as well as creating an entire new community and defining a new entity in the horror genre with video gaming . This journey husband amazing and I believe I'd still keep up even in the coming decade hahw
Same. Fnaf was a huge part of my childhood. I remember reacting to every kind of content when they came out: the games, the teasers, the theories… it was great.
same! i’ve been here since i was 10 with fnaf 2 and now i’m 18! it’s crazy how time flies by !
This was a really great video, and there was some stuff I didn't even know whatsoever (like the first ever gameplay video from Ben), but eitherway this was a really well put together video and the time, work, and effort put into this really shows! keep up the good work :)
Yoooooo the creator of fnaf timeline!😲
I think that it's incredibly wholesome that despite Scott having a history with trolling, people still believe that he genuinely got hacked. Truly, the fnaf community loves him dearly.
I wish a lot of them still respected him, he was forced out of fnaf by so called fans because he voted for what he believed and that made my heart wrench
lmao until politics got in the way at least
Wait what happened to him?
Can anyone explain pls. ^^
@@ShuTheIdiot Thats a gross misrepresentation of what happened and you know that.
What happened was he did not just vote, he donated thousands of dollars to political figures that wanted to push anti LGBT legislation and FNAF has always had a huge LGBT fanbase. For what particular reason? I do not know, Sonic also has a huge LGBT fanbase though nothing in early sonic was overtly LGBT.
And when he was called out about he still danced around whether or not he thought LGBT people deserved our rights with "he's a Christian" and blah blah blah. Personally I was not hurt because I stopped caring about FNAF very early on and certainly never cared abot Scott but people are perfectly valid in being upset by that.
How dare people of a marginalized group be upset that they supported someone financially and literally built his empire only for him to turn around and use that money to directly harm them. Shame on them. 🙄
@@arminnurkovic836 refer to my comment right below yours. If you still want to support him that's you and your business but the fact that people act like ex-fan are just cancelling him or something is absolutely ludicrous.
I still remember the day Markiplier played this. I was 14 years old. I fell in love with the games almost immediately. I started to lose interest around the time sister location came out and moved onto other interests.
I'm 23 now. I just got back into it before the movie comes out later this year. It's insane to see how much it's grown, to see how much more lore has been added. It's insane to me it's slowly getting close to being ten fucking years old.
Same I had just turned 14 when Markiplier uploaded his let’s play of FNAF 1. When I first saw FNAF it made me have trouble sleeping. That stuck with me and the lore sucked me into the series. I remember making fan art of the characters and talking about the games with friends in class.
Same experience for me , I was 14 in highschool when I watched markipilers first video of it and I was hooked
So proud of you bud
never started bawling into a mess after an entire video before but it’s such a nostalgic ride once you realize you’ve been through it all, I remember being a kid watching these videos and now I’m an adult and still standing strong as a fan, this video was amazing and it was well made
Even though I love Markiplier, it’s actually really sad that the first one to actually play the game didn’t get as much credit as he should’ve .
True
Please tell me if im remembering correctly but wasnt he a massive creep anyway?

For me, Security Breach was the major pull into the franchise as well as inspiration for me. I will never forget how motivated it made me to make "Astray" and turn it into a trilogy, seeing how insanely well received it was, it just blew me away. So excited for the future of the franchise and looking forward to be inspired again and again.
Wonderful coverage, it is surreal to see how far it came!
Happy Anniversary FNAF!❤🎂

@@binneyminecraft5919 no lol
@@binneyminecraft5919 but you seem like a good person 😊
My Girlfriend and I started watching some Markiplier videos to pass the time and we just finished watching his Security Breach videos. I'd only ever heard of FNAF before, but after watching that series, I was hooked. There was very clearly a lot more there than simply just an open world horror game and I loved that. I quickly found your channel after trying to understand what really happened in that game and now I'm finding this. Great video, this really sums up my suspicions in that this is all started as a small indy game that blew up and while the game play isn't exactly triple A, the story telling more than makes up for it. Knowing the history now makes the games that much richer.
I used to have a FNAF phase since 2014 when the game came out and it's really wild. It's fascinating how the game went from animatronics jumping in front of your screen and scream, to a mystery plot about the Purple Man and his tragic history.
I'm really happy to see that the community is still active after so many years.
This franchise really changed me since 2014 and i really thank Scott, steel wool studios, illumix, the FNaF community and content creators to the beautiful games, books, songs, animations, fangames, theories and more that inspired me and many more people.
I think that what Scott did will not be forgotten
Happy 8th Anniversary Five Nights at Freddy's🎉
This video was such a joy to watch. And not only for FNAF but for you John! Seeing you and your channels growth has been so amazing! You’ve come from a small FNAF fan making theory and update videos to being a part of Matpats stream! I can’t wait to see how far you and the rest of this amazing community will go !!😁😁
Even after so many years, the FNAF trailers still give me chills to this day, it's so fun looking back and remembering playing those games, all the scares, theories, and songs, what a crazy time it was.
OOH WHEE 90 MINUTES OF FNAF HOTNESS!

ZOO WEE MAMA ITS FNAF TIME
MatPat and Steph are honestly so sweet and wholesome. I love them
MatPat was good while he lasted…
Currently sobbing. This was so well made and really captured how we all felt with the teasers and trolls from Scott. It’s been wonderful being apart of this franchise, all the videos and theories.. It has been a wonderul ride with the fandom aswell, the fan games are also extremely amazing and i hope they keep coming like they’ve been doing these past years. Truly amazing❤️
This was such an amazing video dude! So proud of you for this! It brought back the memories I had watching Dawko, Razz, Bazz, and Ryan doing Theory Thursdays for the FNaF 4 teasers. I would even wait til Friday's to watch them with my Nephew. I think that's why I consider FNaF 4 being one of my favorites. It was because of them that I fell in love with the franchise. I love FNaF and this was such an amazing walk down memory lane. Thank you for making this video!
This whole series in general is one big masterpiece. In my opinion, the games are incredible, but the main part of the franchise is the people behind it. You, matpat, dawko, razzbowski, markiplier, jacksepticeye, all of you are you just so awesome. All of you have made my life so much better. Just the whole fnaf franchise is so good. Well, mostly.
Can’t wait to watch this with a nice cup of ✨ exotic butters ✨ Can tell how much effort and dedication was put into it! Happy birthday Fnaf at freds!

seeing the lil intro honestly made me really happy. i was 8 or 9 when the first game came out and everyone was obsessed with the series. its insane that ill be an adult this year, still so obsessed with the story
I remember discovering about it in 2014. I was an 8 years old kid watching all the youtubers, and downloading all the demos... Now I'm 16 and still sitting here watching it grow bigger and bigger... I always followed this game from the beginning and will always follow it. HUGE thanks to Scott and every youtuber out there working hard, following this franchise, and making us smile! Can't wait for the movie! I'll be frightened. And as always I see everybody in the latest news! Happy 8th anniversary everyone!
Exactly the same for me! Fnaf has honestly changed my life and I am so thankful
I can tell how much incredible hard work went into this video. The amount of nostalgia I felt thinking amount of the digging and theorizing the community went through together is crazy. Thank you for this gem, John (and all the other creators involved!)
This was one of the most understandable FNAF history explanations I have ever seen. I feel like I actually can piece the story together instead of when I was horrified 8 years ago. Thank YOU!
i can tell this took a astonishing amount of time to make. this was very informative, fun to watch, and overall interesting. the ending was beautiful and all of it really shows how amazing the community is. it’s the best fnaf video i’ve ever seen, you did an amazing job.
In 8 more years when this video gets recommended to me again and others, I look forward to looking back and smiling at myself and you, John. Love this community, love this channel, and love fnaf.
Scott is so insanely talented, like it’s genuinely crazy.
He took the criticism he got, and single-handedly made one of the best franchises ever.
I can't believe John has come from this small, faceless youtuber on my home page to a successful channel who caught the attention of such iconic and beloved creators.
I'm proud of him.
Dude, this was absolutely incredible! Thank you for taking the time to make such an amazing history timeline. You really did the franchise justice, and it was so cool to see everything put together through time!
Great writeup. I haven't played a single FNAF game (not my kind of game), but I'm entranced by the lore and now I know essentially the whole story though other videos. This is a great supplement to all those by providing a little more historical context. If lore is the frosting, this is the cake. Good work.
Also it's so wild that people thought that Springtrap in the FNAF 3 teaser images was Golden Freddie. It doesn't look like a bear at all. It very clearly looks like a rabbit in the reversed/high contrast image. It really shows that people want to connect the dots with minimal information right away, without thinking that there's any possibility that it's new, and they really don't know what's coming next.
It's just like when Marill showed up in media pre-GSC and fans came up with ways to evolve Pikachu into "Pikablu."
Also I don't know who is at 1:21:50, but he sucks.
Also, Scott also sucks, having donated to the political campaigns of Mitch McConnell and Donald Trump. He's potentially worse than the Harry Potter author.
This was a great way to visit all of fnaf without all the confusing lore. Oh I do love the lore but this really was a great history of everything else. I can’t imagine how long this took to write/edit/ and just to find the images and information. Especially info with dates. Absolutely awesome. Great job!!
love to see all the hard work put into this. i’ll admit i’m not really as big of a fan of this franchise as i once was back in 2014-16 but it still means so much to me. happy 8th anniversary fnaf!
FNAF and Markiplier literally saved my family. 2014 and early 2015 were hell for us. My dad had stage 4 cancer and was rapidly declining and passed in January of 2015. My family basically crumbled after that. My mom, sister, and I barely spoke to each other despite living in the same house. We just sort of existed in a fog of depression.
My mom basically just worked and slept. I was in college and worked part time and threw myself completely into those without really doing anything else.
Well, my sister happened to come across Mark's FNAF videos not long before the 3rd game came out and made me watch them with her. It was just enough to pull me out of my funk and start actually interacting with my family again. My sister and I got closer than we had literally ever been before and gradually we were able to start pulling my mom out of her haze as well.
so sweet
I LOVE this

The FNAF community could’ve found the Zodiac Killer by now 💀
This was epic!!!! I wasn’t here at the start of FNAF and honestly if it wasn’t for breaking my leg 2 years ago, you John, markiplier and MatPat… I would have never got to share these experiences with all of you. I’m glad I’m apart of this fun community and this video was amazing! Great job!
The absolute nostalgia in that first minute. I had just graduated high school when fnaf came out, and now im pushing 30 and my little niece whom i have shared my love of fnaf with is 13. This was a nice walk down memory lane for me!
I’m so happy for Scott that he finally got one of his games to be successful, it’s insane How far it’s come, these games are truly amazing
ive just finished watching and i cant even begin to explain how much it already means to me. i grew up with this franchise, watching this made me feel like i was a child again; it helped me remember so many of the happy memories that came with fnaf: the theorizing, the trolling, the excitement and everything else. i also honestly dont think any other youtuber could not only explain the entire history of fnaf in such detail in only 1hr30mins, but also manage to explain how the experience of witnessing all that felt like, and how much emotion came with looking back on it all today. as sappy and cheesy as it may sound, from the bottom of inner child's heart, thank you Fuhnaff 💜 and congrats on this amazing vid!!
Just finished the video
Currently sobbing
I can’t believe I’ve been a part of this amazing community for most of my life
Here’s to the rest of it!
Good stuff. My nephew and I discovered FNAF through DanTDM and we have been fans ever since. We both felt sad to hear that Scott will be stepping back. Scott and FNAF will always have a fond place in our hearts. We hope that Steelwool will be able to fill such big shoes. It’s cool to see new theorists taking interest in this franchise. Keep up the great work. Thanks for this video.
Honestly, just remembering all of these teasers and trailers (lore too i suppose lol) is incredibly nostalgic. I've enjoyed FNAF since I was 13, now I am an adult and I continue to adore FNAF. It never fails to disappoint. This was an awesome video which brought back some great memories.
I truly hope that the future of FNAF will be even better.
This is actually kinda emotional, fnaf was my childhood and if I showed my younger self Security Breach I’d think it’s fake. Love this
*A LITTLE MESSAGE;*
I honestly cried while watching this, it was so emotional going through the years of the FNAF Community. I'm very happy that Scott Cawfon made this game and the franchise, I'm sure people are grateful of the games and the hard work that Scott and his team has made.
As I'm saying this in 3 days is the 9th Anniversary of the first Five Nights At Freddy's game, hope you guys are as happy as I am for the FNAF Community.
-The FNAF Fan (Me)
It always blows my mind to think that Scott was on the verge of giving up game development and has now shaped and built so many great memories for people to grow with over the 9 years it’s been a franchise. And just thinking about the fact it’s almost been a decade is absolute insanity, I remember watching matpats first game theory like it was yesterday.. just so many good memories man❤️
What a time to be alive. Thank you for making this. Your the hero we needed but never deserved
I’m so proud of you johnny. The video is incredible and it shows how much you care for this franchise alongside its community
I think the coolest thing about FNAF will always be how involved the community is with the state of the games and the franchise in general. I dont think there has been another successful massive game franchise in history where the creator worked so closely with the community and actually responded to feedback in such a positive way. You'll never look at something like Halo or Pokemon and see a part of their franchise history revolving around youtubers.
I know this wasn't a lore video but it actually cleared up a few questions I had! Aww, what a legacy!
FNAF has been in my life since 2016 and I loved this series ever since. I can’t believe it’s been 8 years since it’s inception and I can’t wait for this series grow even more than it already is! Thank you FNAF, thank you for being in my childhood. ❤️
This is one of the best recaps I’ve seen. I enjoy the effort to actually tell the story as a narrative and not just a bunch of bullet points
Fantastic video!!
First reply?! 🎃
Just finished watching and I literally had tears in my eyes in the end because this vid really puts into perspective how big of an impact the FNaF franchise has had on the internet. Thank you John❤️
Oh god that little intro literally brought tears to my eyes, I've been following FNAF since it started and I just can't explain how deeply I love it, thank you for making this monster of a video as a huge homage to these games ❤
I almost cried watching the end. I've been running with this franchise since I was 11 in Markiplier's first video on it. Now I'm 19 and engaged, it feels like Five Nights At Freddy's has been with me my entire life. I've had a very horrible life sadly, and I could never thank Scott enough for giving child me something to look forward to for so many many years. I don't know if Scott will ever see this message but I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the amazing story, games, and memories you have given all of us.
U can already see how much hard work and effort that went into this and it was all worth it, It was absolutely a masterpiece and entertaining to watch, we are all proud of you man. I've been with community since 2014 and It was really great to look back at the 8 years history of FNAF.
I love how this franchise is just full of love. The community to an indy horror game about dead kids and made this fandom out of it. I love this community.
this video was so amazing, totally worth the wait! you can really tell how much love and work was put into this, and it was such a nice time reliving these big moments in the fandom, it really makes me remember just why i love this franchise so much
Well worth the wait and delay. This was really well thought out and I enjoyed every second of it. Keep up the amazing videos and I look forward to what FNAF has in store for us in the future!
This intro touched my heart, just thinking of all the fun times and memes and incredible lore and love put into this game from the creator and the community of fans, video creators, artists, everything, it’s just incredible to me an it touched my heart ❤️
It was nice to take a look back at the amazing history of this franchise from the point of other youtubers.
This franchise still means alot to me, I clearly remember my little brother showing me the trailer of the first game way back in 2014, followed by Markiplier's playthrough and I thought it looked so cool and terrifying! 😨
I'm very excited for the future of this franchise and the fanbase.
As always thank you John for putting so much energy into making these great videos, especially this one. 💙
Here's to another 8 years.
The nostalgia of this video is REAL! I was so excited to see this man!
This is such a nice nostalgic video… when fnaf 3 came out. I remember sitting in my room. I saw markiplier’s play through video recommended and gasping so loudly. I proceeded to run to my brother’s room and been like “FNAF 3 CAME OUT!!”. He was like “that’s gatta be fake, it isn’t supposed to come out yet” we went and watch it together in my small mini iPad and everything- good innocent times man
Sobbing and screaming. Such an emotional and wonderful game series. If this truly ends the FNAF series, I'm glad to be a part of the community forever. Thank you John, and most importantly thank you Scott
This is absolutely the best FNAF video I’ve seen in years after coming back to the community. I’ve been in the FNAF community for around 7 to 8 years. The memories I have about the FNAF community is watching Game Theory, Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, and especially Fusionzgamer. I’ve watched a lot of fnaf UA-camrs but I’m not gonna mention them all because I don’t want to fill this whole comment with UA-camrs I’ve watched. I remember being hyped for FNAF 6 and especially Sister Location. I don’t remember exactly what I was doing at that era but seeing this game evolve to one of the biggest horror games ever is crazy. I gladly thank Scott for making such an amazing horror franchise. Thank You Scott…
I JUST REALIZED THAT THIS VIDEO WASN’T 30MIN LONG BUT 1H AND 30MINS HOLY GREAT VIDEO:)
it’s incredible that i was in kindergarten when this game started, and it is STILL going even though i’m now going into high school.
An incredible story, with an incredible fan base, and im glad that i’ve been a part of it from the very beginning.
KINDERGARTEN???
@@hsweetheartss we old bruh
@@cp99music im not that old either actually i was in second grade when the first game came out but kindergarten is just wow
I was 4 when I found FNaF 4 and loved the series…
@@glenhaven721 UR 11…?
Man this entire summary of the last 8 years is really mind boggling to me. I remember being 12 when the first game dropped. watching CoryxKenshin flip out when he was playing it. Even today, it still feels like UCN released not too long ago despite being over 4 years ago. It's just so jarring to realize this game was around during all of my teenage years. Really brings back some memories seeing all of those teasers and hearing the bizarre theories of FNaF 3 of Golden Bonnie and "The Salvage". Great stuff, bro.
I love how objective this all is, it simply states what Scott put out there and everything beyond basic speculation is kept to a minimum, its nice to step back and simply look at things from a real standpointq
This video has the exact passion for the games so many people have, myself included! Very well made and overall an amazing video!! its crazy to think about how much has happened within the span of 8 years, and more to come /pos
Thank you for taking the time and care to make this video. this honestly recovered my hate that I had for the community and the newer games. thank you, very well done
This is such an amazing commentary. I’ve never seen something so informative on UA-cam - I’m going to check if there is a Call of Duty video
Well done John. A well made video. Loved reliving our collective journey of this franchise with the UA-camrs that made it what it is today. 😻
Five Nights at Freddy’s is and will always be in our hearts. I can’t wait to see what is next in the franchise. Happy Birthday Fnaf!!!!
Its crazy to think i was a tiny 13 year old terrified of their own shadow but morbidly curious by the scary games their favorite youtuber played- fnaf introduced me to a whole world of chills and thrills and lovely people with awesome ideas. i may be 4 months late but- happy 8 years fnaf.
This series has been my special interest for the ENTIRETY of my adulthood, since I was 18. Nothing has touched the hyperfixation level of FNAF besides LoZ. I'm sitting here 13 minutes into the video and having a hard time holding my tears back, that FNAF2 trailer just hit me like a ton of bricks!! Thank you so much for making this video. It completely validates spending the last 8 years on this franchise. ♥️
Five Nights At Freddys is just absolutely amazing. I’m looking forward to the future of the franchise! Thanks for spending so much time and effort on this video FuhNaff!
I had only just barely turned 10 when FNAF one was released, but that game and it's gameplays got me through so much shit I was going through at home. I was there for every trailer, every theory and piece of fanart, comic dub, fan song, and every analyzed bit and piece of a teaser, and it was phenomenal.
I grew up with FNAF, and it shaped my childhood, and got me through every bad moment. This video was such a nostalgia trip for me, thanks for making this video, gave me a nice case of whiplash. (In a good way)
While I haven’t been a fan since 2014, I’ve been a fan since 2018! this game and the fandom has brightened my life so much, watching matpat videos and markiplier playthroughs. I can’t wait to finish this video, as I’m watching it while typing this. Here’s to 8 more years!
I’ve been a fan since 2017 lol
@@FlimFlam08 Hey!! Same here!
I’ve been a fan since the beginning and I cannot believe it has been 8 years since it first came out.

I got unbelievably emotional while watching this. I would not be here if this game didn't exist, due to my mental and physical health. Best franchise ever made, I cannot wait for what the future holds ❤❤❤
This video made me very emotional, fnaf has been a huge part of my life. Being one of my favorites since 2014. I still actively play and watch any content I can get my hands on which resulted in me buying an ungodly amount of merchandise that I love dearly.
I didn't think this video would be anywhere near as amazing as it was, i loved seeing everything that has happened over this 8 year long journey and all the memories that this video has brought back. I seriously hope that this game series can keep moving in the right direction rather than take the same path other games take. thank you for this amazing video and experience that i will be sure to rewatch years from now.
This was an absolutely phenomenal video. I can’t imagine how much time you put into gathering the information and editing all the clips but I can promise you that it did not go unnoticed. I’ve been following the franchise since the first game came out and yet here I am still learning new things.
Anyone here in 2024 when the game is 10 years old!
yes
Here!
Literally just played security breach and now I’m lore diving !
Gosh, the amount of work that went into this is insane. Really well presented, lovely summary
Whatever you think about Scott, his success and determination to create despite the odds against him is undeniable.
