What the FUCK was his problem?

I missed literally all of the text logs because I'm a retard

He's dead.

>>713345268
how did you miss the huge terminals with the word "MAIL" on them?

Isn't that Edwin?

>>713345486
The logs imply it's one of the workers that went down there and never returned, I think

>>713345486
MY NAME IS EDWIN
I MADE THE MIMIC

>>713345843
My name is the fucking Mimic, oh yeah
I made the Edwin
It was difficult to put the legs together

>>713344156 (OP)
Fnaf was scarier when it was just a bunch of malfunctioning animatronics

>>713345968
but it never was that
the clear implication in 1 was possession, and one of the enemies is a straight up teleporting ghost

>>713345541
I doubt a starving employee would've survived that long down there. I think it's where M2 stuffed Edwin but M1 with F10 taken out climbed in. M2 stuffs people in the suit they think best suits them, and Edwin was always moon while Fiona was the sun

>>713344156 (OP)
Zoomers, you think someone like me in their 30's could get into FNaF?

>>713346281
Yeah. Just going in order of release up until Fnaf 4 is a good way to start, but from there is when convoluted continuity and timelines start to creep in. It's not impossible to understand if you just keep playing the games, especially with the new ones taking the time to fill in gaps we're have for years.

>>713345472
>Has Edwin's bow logo on it
>Blinks twice and then says NO MAIL

I thought I needed to come back with admin permissions

>>713346480
>>713346281
This game is honestly a really strong entry point.

>>713347403
you're talking about the first one right? or is it another one?

>>713345968
Well then you are going to love this game, because that's literally all it is aside from maybe one scene

>>713347452
Secret of the Mimick, the newest game.
Very accessible gameplay style (plays like a lower budget Alien Isolation), much easier to follow lore than other installments with clear setup for the other installments, and it's the first game in the timeline

>>713345968
This one is literally just one malfunctioning animatronic wearing all sorts of suits since it can't help but play the character of the suit it's wearing, but learned violence

>>713345968
>posted it again award

>>713345968
Nigga Mimic is literally just that

>>713346281
>Zoomers
Nigger FNAF is more than ten years old
Despite the horrendous audience of autists, furries and children the first game is genuinely good. Graphics, art-style are fantastic and mechanically it was like nothing else at the time. Haven't played the others.

>>713348370
>Nigger FNAF is more than ten years old
And zoomers are in their mid to late 20's now anon. They grew up on FNaF. Look, I know the progress of time is shocking for us old people but it's true.

He just wants you to stop drinking poison.

>>713348467
Zoomers are not almost 30

>>713348565
>Gen Z is generally defined as people born between 1997 and 2012. As of June 22, 2025, this means they are roughly 13 to 28 years old.
Anon, you're getting old.

>>713344156 (OP)
Lullaby and good night. Shush!

>>713344156 (OP)
I was genuinely impressed by how consistently unsettling the sun and moon were every time we got a glimpse of them.

Very mysterious. The fuck was Edwin smoking

>kills the franchise
Why did they do it and why did Scott let them?

>>713349931
Secret is good but I'll never understand why THIS is the studio they went with

The impression I get is that the VR games had their own contract, and when Help Wanted was pretty great, they signed them for the 2D games and everything fell apart.

>>713350147
the only 2D FNAF game was not made by Steel Wool though

So whats the lore for this one

>>713344156 (OP)
Tommy Pickles?

>>713350294
Sorry I meant 2D as in not VR

>>713350416
His name is Edwin
He made the mimic
It was difficult
To put the pieces together

>>713350416
A workaholic named Edwin Murray marries his co-worker Fiona and has a son named David. The pair make costumes and characters together, but Edwin is so deep into his work that he neglects his family. Fiona dies in a fire when David is just 2 and Edwin can't handle it, so creates a program to mimic her behavior and raise David, this is M1. Edwin continues to neglect his son but his work stops satisfying him because his clients, namely Fazbear Entertainment, aren't fans of the designs his wife originally made for them. He then creates M2, an endoskeleton that has the same mimicking abilities, this time to entertain David. But on David's 5th birthday, he's hit by a car and dies. While Edwin is grieving, M2 starts to mimic David's old behaviors. This pisses Edwin off. so he beats M2 to a pulp and leaves it to rust away, which in turn teaches the Mimic violence. Later, Fazbear cancels it's contract with Edwin and takes many of his employees. Again he is enraged but there's nothing he can do, so has to basically sell his company to them. Sometime later, the Mimic has rebuilt itself, and it uses it's new body to break into Edwin's house and blow him up, taunting Edwin as he dies of blood loss. With Edwin dead, Fazbear sends the player character to retrieve the assets they now own.

>>713344156 (OP)
Stop putting a red border around images. It makes me think I've posted in threads that I haven't.

>>713351070
Isn't it implied that he made the M2 specifically to please M1?

>>713351070
So Fazbear gets evil mimic technology, and LIFE SOUL extraction/ghost possession technology from 2 completely different parties.

>>713351472
Fazbear never actually ends up with the mimic tech. The plot of the game is about them sending you to retrieve it, but none of the endings actually result in a success

>>713350885
potato knishes

Isn't the guy who makes these an unapologetic rightwing Christian weirdo? Hard pass for me.

>>713351576
Considering where the Mimics are during Ruin, there's a good chance Henry found them at some point and hid them away in his basement

>>713351576
>Fazbear never actually ends up with the mimic tech.
eventually they have to for glitchtrap to be created

>>713351739
This. So much this.

>Still froth at the mouth over a donation
Scott Cawthon Derangement Syndrome. At this point it has to just be old people or former fans trying to find a moral high ground for not liking Fnaf.

So are there actually 2 robots or is m1 and m2 only really referring to the software?

Could sun&moon in security breach be a creation of the mimic? I mean in the final chase sense I'm certain the robots chasing us are the mimic's creations after he started emulating Edwin.

And what do you guys make of the posted note room now?

>>713354015
m1 is, if I'm not mistaken, the Fiona robot, though she seems to be a central computer now so I don't know if she still has her humanoid body

>>713354015
>So are there actually 2 robots or is m1 and m2 only really referring to the software?
M1 is the software who impersonates the dispatch guy and also thinks it's Edwin's wife but M2 is the actual Mimic we evade in-game.
>Could sun&moon in security breach be a creation of the mimic?
I don't think the Mimic makes robots, it just wears them like suits.

>>713354015
>So are there actually 2 robots or is m1 and m2 only really referring to the software?
1 endo, 2 programs by the end of the game
>I mean in the final chase sense I'm certain the robots chasing us are the mimic's creations after he started emulating Edwin.
probably failed attempts, probably M2 tried to make other mimics. who knows. the latest crackpot theory is F10-N4 was the one who revive Fazbear LLC using MCM and FE IPs
>And what do you guys make of the posted note room now?
Gregory is a robot :)

>>713354015
It seems like there is only one robot. The M1 program was put into the computer and a new M2 program was uploaded into the endoskeleton.
He said there were other attempts but only M1/M2 were succesful.
The one we see in Ruin is the same endo, except with it repairing itself over the years from damage/decay.

>>713354232
>I don't think the Mimic makes robots
that would mean the stupid wobbly things that kill you in the final chase were made by edwin, which is both stupid and hilarious
imagine making the single most advanced robot in history that will outlive you for decades and become the most unkillable threat ever, and then outputting nothing but murderous toasters on legs afterwards

>>713354015
>>713354165
One robot. M1, the Fiona software, was temporarily stored in the big computer while Edwin created the M2 software to mimic David and stores it in that same endo with an intention to build Fiona a new body down the line. Unfortunately everything went wrong and they never got that far

>>713354998
What's the postitnote room? Security Breach, VR2, and Ruin are all a huge blind spot for me

>>713354998
>the latest crackpot theory is F10-N4 was the one who revive Fazbear LLC using MCM and FE IPs
Would actually explain why they built the Pizzaplex on top of the Fnaf6 location, considering that seems to be where F10-N4 was stored

>>713355432
>considering that seems to be where F10-N4 was stored
Fnaf6 location/the pizzaplex was nowhere near Edwins

if you want to play in order of timeline do you start at mimic and then go to what?

>>713355667
FNAF 2 goes before FNAF 1
FNAF 3 is decades after FNAF 1, and before Pizzeria Simulator
Help Wanted is after Pizzeria Simulator
Security Breach after HW
Ruin after SB
I don't fucking know where FNAF 4, SL and HW2 would go. HW2 I think goes after Ruin? FNAF 4 maybe goes before FNAF 2?
Oh, and SL goes before Pizzeria Simulator of course, that's a fact. But I don't know if it goes before or after FNAF 3.

>>713355594
F10-N4 is MXES. The canon ending to SotM sees us activating her MXES mode

>>713355667
Sister location I think?
Truthfully I would never recommend such a thing since the lore/time period each game focuses on is usually detached from the place of the game in the literal timeline.

For example FNAF 4 focuses on the next events after Mimic, but its actual placement is up for debate. FNAF 3 is super super late in the timeline but focuses on events before even Sister Location

>>713355361
Security Breach, the one with Afton family security dolls
>>713355594
anon... it's all big sinkhole... the fact you could find several MCM costumes on Ruin and FFPS room on SB and HW2 implies they are built on the same place

>>713355361
A secret room in Security Breach. Full of post it notes all over the place with scribbles and chicken scratch, like someone or something trying to learn how to draw or communicate. Believed to be a mimic learning, or that Gregory (the kid you play as in this game) is implied to be a kid mimic and this was his room at some point since his past is very suspicious and it looks like he actually lives in the plex possibly.

>>713356075
>>713356007
But wasn't the FNAF 6 location built on top of Fredbears, which we know was running concurrently with Edwin's?

>>713356069
NTA but why do they keep building on the same sinkhole

>>713356075
Gregory being a Mimic would at least explain why he's able to push Glamrock Chica like that. If Roxy was able to hold the Mimic off for a bit, and Mimic is shown to have obscenely superhuman strength as seen in SOTM several times, and we assume Roxy and Chica to be of the same "material quality", then in order for Greg's push to not immediately bounce back on him he'd have to be around Mimic strength.

>>713356291
Theres no good answer for this other than it being cheep property that the company already owns

>>713356291
Fazbear is trying to build into Hell itself, for cheaper estate.

Can I get a QRD on the Moon robot in the basement and why Tiger Rock or whatever his name is appears randomly?

>>713356617
Spirits, nigga. Boo.

>>713356617
All unknown.

The moon is either the mimic (unlikely), a zombie employee still alive somehow, or Edwin himself, as alluded to in moon.exe

The tiger costume is probably the ghost of David but how or why is an unknown

>>713345968
FNAF was never scary and you are all a bunch of faggoty zoomers, falling for youtuber overreactions,

>>713356617
White Tiger is 99% surely David's ghost. Think Golden Freddy.
Moon is...a complete fucking mystery.

>>713356878
I used to think this way until I played it myself.

>>713356878
This is your brain after a lifetime of /v/ contrarianism

>>713356038
This. You aren't getting much story out of 1-6 anyway without some sort of lore recap
