I think I solved most of Fnaf 4 problems

[Galewin]

First of, sorry for my english, as it's not my lative language.

Like most of you, i was pretty lost about fnaf 4 and it's problems about timeline. Until i saw that sentence some days ago on scot last update "I guess most people assumed that I filled the game with random easter eggs this time. I didn't".

That's when I realised that Nothing, NOTHING was left to chance. Everything that seemed off, had a reason to be here. Thats why, for now on, I will consider any incoherence, or "just an easter egg", like an evidence.

So, the first thing that bugged me, was surprinsgly something that apparently didn't bug that many people : Plushtrap. WHY.THE.♥♥♥♥.IS.SPRINGTRAP.HERE. As you know all, springtrap is purple guy. so, how can purple guy be alive, in the minigame, and, at the same time, in a moment where springtrap exist, something like 40 years later. It isn't "plush spring bonnie" it is "plushtrap", so purple guy already died.

It doesn't make any sense. and there is only one explenation to this, wich is the main inovation, and the main theory my thoughs are based on : the minigames, and the "gameplay's part" simply, doesnt happen, at the same time. There is simply two timelines at this games, and this is why so much peoples have problems to understand it. I have many proofs of what i'm saying, and will develop this.

If you have seen the game theorist video "fnaf4 got it all wrong", you know what his problem is. whithout frontal lob, you can't feel fear. A valid point (i guess, i'm not a doctor). BUT . scott actually replied to this video saying that mat was right, but like some clever fans mentionned, he is missing something crucial. This is strongly hinting, that the person having the nightmares, isn't the child who lost his frontal lob, since he can't have nightmares. Many fans (including myself) since, thinks, that the person having the nighmare isn't the child who was bite, but the one who caused it : his brother himself. The game then, change drasticly of what we thought. it isn't the story of a child in coma, trapped by his nightmares, but the story of a child, conssumed by guilt.

The child, who bullied his brother, lived on after his death, narrated by the minigames. even 30 or 40 years, he is still haunted by nightmares of his crimes. How could he dream, before it's existence, of springtrap ? As you know in fnaf 3, Fazbear Fright, was just about to open, but couldn't, cause of the fire that burned the place down. So, excpect for the security guard, no one could know that there was springtrap inside the building... Right ? Remember, the place was JUST ABOUT to open. So, how could they manage their new popularity ? by doing an insane advertisement campaign ! Like writting in on the newspapper seen at the beggining of the game, but most interestly, by selling goodies. What sort of goodies ? I don't know, something like... Plushes of the new mascot who was about to be the main attraction ? Plushtrap, isn't part of his imagination it really existed, the brother just put that part in his nightmares. Every night, he is dreaming of the animatronics, coming back for him, to make him pay for his crime coming to see him on his room. In his dream, the brother is a child like he was at the moment of the bite, explaining the room and it's childish look.

The room, let's talk about it. Remember in fnaf 3, the minigames, a perfect recreation of freddy fazbear pizza's in fnaf 1 ? Now, visualize your room in fnaf4 and it's look in the minigames. The minigame one is a small one, and the one from gameplay have two corridors on each side. It just doesn't fit. How could scott, who recreated to the perfection the pizerria from the first game, coul make a so big mistake ? the answer is simple : he didn't. The room we see in the minigames, isn't the room we play in the game.And again, the consequences to that statement are simples too, you don't play the child who was bite, because you simply don't play in his bedroom. Kind of a big bedroom for a kid, no ? two doors, a king size bed. Looks like more an adult room to me, no ? like if an adult was sleeping in. Again, my theory explain that very well, you are the child's brother many years laters, as he is an adult, in his own room, in the corpse of a child. the bedroom you see in the game doesn't fit to any room in the house, nor the minigames.

Other bugging things : the easter eggs on the table. The flowers, the pills, and the IV drip. I'm not sure about this one but, do you think, that an 8 years old child, know about these things ? what are the chances that the kid who was bite, knew that these were inconscience proof for the hospitalisation he is in ? how could it be aware of it anyway ? But, if I was his borther, and if I had to visit him regulary, I guess that will be some things that would certainly traumatize me as a child :)


It sincerly think this theory is rock solid. it explain things, just. so . well. Playing the brother, just make a thousand times more sense, than playing the kid.

That's why you can have purple guy being in the minigames (alive) and the plushtrap (impliying he is dead), that's why the rooms doesn't fit, that's why a hundred of problems, are simply solved by the fact that the minigmaes and the gameplay parts are at two time periods.

Don't hesitate to comment to tell me if something seem wrong to you, or if you just have additional ideas.

Thanks for reading, I know that was verry long ^^"

EDIT: after reading some others theories, an even bigger evidence is the trailer phrase "what have you brought home ?". I think it could be an allusion to the buying of plustrap, since at the end of fnaf 3, leftovers after the fire have been sell in an auction. That could even implying that, all the nightmares are caused by the springtrap plush. Why else that detail would be so important to be in the trailer of the game ?! so deep...

Yet this doesnt explain why the original four animatronics souls couldnt rest in oeace until they gave his friend the birthday party. So the bro and the friends have to had died for theor souls to pass onto the animatronic and so on

But yesh for the rest of stuff. Its almost a give than the day and night cycles HAVE to pertain to different things/timelines

But i think that we can explain 83 and 87 bites with this game along. We just have to keeo tying the pieces togwrher.

[Galewin]

I agrre with you, the flaw is that you have to asume that the four kids (including the bro) anr't the ones who will haunt the animatronics, which is still possible.

FUN FACT: Although it doesn't necessarily cause fearlessness, victims of frontal lobe injuries sometimes portray a more impulsive attitude, causing them to punch-first-ask-questions-later.

FUN FACT: The frontal lobe also controls long-term memory (not task-based). These memories are often associated with the... LIMBIC SYSSTEEEEM!!!!

FUN FACT: The limbic system ♥♥♥♥♥ with your time perception (so 6 hours can just fly by!), your motor behavior, etc.

FUN FACT: A disorder linked in with the limbic system AND the frontal lobe: scizo-PHRENIAAAAAAA!

[Galewin]

As i said, i'm not a doctor. But as stated by the game theorist, victims of frontal lobe injuries suffers from ADHD, and it's quite unlikly to have someone focusing for 6 hours with these conditions (even with time perceptions problems). But that's very interesting to know, thank you.

But not ALL victims suffer ADHD. They could have attention deficiencies, but I think time perception still balances.

FUN FACT: Another infrequent effect is that of reduplicative paramnesia, in which patients believe that the location in which they currently reside is a replica of one located somewhere else.

DUDE ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

But, it doesn't explain how the kid can have a vision fo springtap, 40 years before it's creation. Except of that, the "all in your head" theory is a really nice one, but the most I look at it, the less it seems plausible for me...

Woah, woah! Who ever said Springtrap was created 40 years after 1983/87? Plushtrap is based on SPRING-BONNIE, but I think it's just a little winky-wink (the name at least!)

Knowing that he has the same colors (not very goldy anymore), the same name, and most importantly that scott stated that "most people assumed that I filled the game with random easter eggs this time. I didn't." I presumed that evrything had a sense, and nothing was left to chance.

Damn. That's a whoooooole lotta tying.

The fourth one is so complex that i don't think a single person figured it in it's globality, yes x) But by creating post like this, there is no reason why people won't put all the pieces together. It will be long, but that will happend eventually.

This is a pretty good theory.

Heck, I have ADHD, and I am able to sit myself down and focus on school for even up to 8 hours a day:D
