Five Nights at Freddy's 4

Five Nights at Freddy's 4

Scott, None of the Details in the Games Were Retconned Correct?
I understand that you have said that the story was complete. However, some believe that some of the details that you have set in these games should not quite be taken as seriously as they should (Phone Guy's description of the Bite of '87 being a good example of this). As such, I am wondering if the details that you have established beforehand in the previous games, such as FNAF 1 and 2, have changed as you progressed the story into the later games. Is this the case or is everything as it should be? Please, all that I ask for is for some form of clarification.

I think this deserves to be cleared up. We've been a bit swinged. We've been thinking it is a consistent, completely solvable story, but the book having changed the story as a whole hints otherwise.

Looks like this got buried in with the other threads.

*sigh*

All I ask for is an answer.

I haven't read the book, and please don't spoil it for me, but I have a theory about the contents of the box, it popped into my head one night before I went to bed.

Consider the dream theory. If you haven't heard of it check out Game Theory's video on it. It should be one of the most recent. If all the games really ARE just the kid's dreams while he's in the hospital, the vase and IV easter eggs make sense. I also thought of this later, the fact that the victim of the bite of 87 (which I belive is the kid) had his frontal lobe damaged. That came from the doctor, telling his parents about the kid's frontal lobe in the hospital while he was out.

But it doesn't stop there. The box, I don't think it's a box. It's a coffin. The kid was pronounced dead. Scott said something like "What's seen in the shadows is easily mistake by the eyes of a child." The box is hidden in shadows. It probably resembles is toy box, or something like that. After being pronounced dead, he was put into the coffin.

Scott said the box contained all the pieces of the puzzle put together. Who knows all the secrets behind FNaF? Who was the victim of the bite? Who created the story of FNaF and was the subject of the above statement by Scott? The kid.

EDIT: Omg wait, if you look at the human brain

The frontal lobe only contains short term memory. The events and dreams that scared him so bad would stay in his memory forever. WHICH WAS IN THE BACK LOBE. WHICH IS APPARENLTY UNDAMAGED. What if the back lobe of the child's brain is in the box?

Just wanted to clarify, (Most of this is very thoughtful and well put.) but there is no 'Back Lobe'. There is a Frontal Lobe, but the rest are named after a series of various things; like the Occipital Lobe, which processes what the eye sees. I believe the Greek word for Eyes is Oculus, hence, occipital lobe. I believe (But I'm not a neurologist, just served in the United States Medical Corps when I was in the Navy) what you're looking for is the Temporal Lobe, but in the back of my mind I remember that being misnamed. I might be thinking of the Parietal lobe, I'm not sure.

The Frontal Lobe is named after being behind the Frontal Bone of your skull, I.E. Your forehead. I'm not sure why the frontal lobe was named that officially. It seems kind of out of place in terms of medical names.

Yeah, I see what you mean. I basically meant the half of the brain that wasn't damaged :P

Something I feel I should add onto here is that the amygdala is the part of the brain that controls the fear response of the brain (the "fight or flight" response to be exact). It's located within the temporal lobe, which presides just slightly underneath the frontal lobe.

I'm going to necro this thread one last time to see if Scott replies. If he does not, I will take it as a no to my question.

I don't see why they would change.

Some details in a story will change as you progress it. It's just a natural process for a writer if they feel it will give them a more flowing narrative than what they planned before.
