WHAT DO YOU MEAN CHRIS AND TERRANCE CAME FROM A FAN SERIES THAT NAMED HENRY FRED??
I thought Gacha FNaF made that stuff up what. My childhood was a lie. (Half joke)
Was anyone going to tell me that the names Chris and Terrance for the crying child and Michael respectively came from a fan series that named Henry fucking Fred or was I supposed to find that out myself by watching a video essay that's painfully wrong about too much of established canon to tolerate
I'm like an hour late but IN MY DEFENSE I was busy.
Spoilers for the new SotM video maybe idk. Not really but still continue cautiously if you havent seen it yet. (Video is called Stay Up Latte btw if you wanna go watch it.)
MORE FNAF LORE?!?!?! Stay Up Latte is such a dumb name I love it.
We can all agree that coffee machine put droogs in the coffee right?/j
so the usa is in a constitutional crisis rn— the Supreme Court has ordered the trump administration 9-0 to bring kilmar abrego garcia (an innocent and legal man kidnapped and wrongfully deported to CECOT in el salvador) and the trump administration is refusing. instead, trump asked the president of el salv to build more facilities bc maybe “homegrown” = american born criminals will be next. CECOT does NOT let prisoners out. they sleep on metal beds with no padding. their heads are shaved. they are beaten. on google satellite people uncovered a massive red looking puddle outside one of the buildings and the location has since been blurred / made unavailable. they either don’t want to bring kilmar abrego garcia back bc of what he will share from the experience…. or they can’t.
and remember — the SUPREME COURT has ordered at vote of NINE to zero for trump to bring him back and he is refusing.
You. You get my train of thought.
Random nonsensical post of the night, I FEEL like TOYSNHK would like Shooter Games and Metroidvanias... I have no proof of this, but he gives me the vibe of someone who would like them. Idk.
Anyways it's late for me, so we'll see if i still see my vision tomorrow when I wake up. goodnight folks.
The funny thing about seeing this NOW is that Ultrakill LITERALLY caused me to get back into Hollow Knight and I have no way to explain how that happened without sounding like a madman.
*Hollow Knights your Ultrakill*
Wow Girl CC... and whatever that thing is.
(2nd picture is below cut. Warning for possibly disturbing imagery.)
She doesn't have a name yet so yk... give me name ideas if you want.
Once again, warning for possibly disturbing imagery.
You won't believe me but I originally took a screenshot of my watermarked ?? In IBISPAINT... and didn't realize i did until i got on YouTube to post it. What.
My son.
I birthed him.
He is my little bebe.
And I love him.
You also love him.
Because he's but a little boi.
He much prefers toilet water to his water dish.
But this is okay.
Because we love him.
So FNaF DBD, how are we feeling chat?? Personally I'm feeling great.
Tried to redraw Springtrap (with some of my own design mixed in there).
I think he's pretty neat.
I'd argue that Cassidy and Charlie don't get very much either, BUT that's a rant for a separate post. The point here is that yes. I agree.
FNaF has a MAJOR problem with just... making characters to help move the plot forward then throw out. The MCI and DCI are the most major examples of course.
They exist so the main plot can happen, and they don't do anything else major after that, but even FNaFs more developed characters get this treatment.
We get a weird amount of information on Michael Brooks from the Silver Eyes Trilogy only for him to be... thrown out right after. Seriously, we get this kids FULL name, appearance, parents names, goal, animatronic he possesses, friends, etc, only for him to not be used again after the Silver Eyes Trilogy. (hes maybe used again in the movie but my point still stands)
Or ANDREW on the opposite side of the spectrum. He just shows up out of nowhere to be at LEAST a TOYNSHK stand in (or maybe TOYSNHK himself, not gonna argue over that here). We know nothing beyond "alligator mask and curly black hair". We get to know a little before they throw him out of the story and he never comes up again.
For modern FNaF, I do think Steel Wool WANTS to treat the characters better, Gregory and Cassie are good characters and I really like them, but game Vanessa got cut so much she hardly feels like a character at times (they butchered my girl...).
Like I know the movie gets hate for the characters being "shallow", but i got a better grasp of movie Vanessas personality in the first movie than i have on game Vanessas personality. (mostly to the fault of me not understanding anything in Security Breach probably, but also those damn cuts.)
I agree with the idea that there should've been short stories for all of the MCI. Fazbear's Frights is like a collection of creepypastas and I love it for that, but I'd rather have a story about Gabriel or Jeremy then a story about Matpat x Springtrap mpreg or fazgoo.
Like most of the minor books characters get more development than the games characters, that's insane. Why do we know that Heather Anders from The New Kid has two little sisters, but not what Fritz's last name is?
The only characters with development are Elizabeth/Circus Baby (until they massacred her in Pizza Sim...), Michael, and William. Everyone else is there ONLY for the plot, and even then these 3 are usually only there for the plot too.
FNaF makes too many characters to fill roles other characters can (I love you Andrew but at least 5 other characters could've took your role and it would've made more sense), and then throw them out because the plot doesn't need them anymore.
I love FNaF SO MUCH, always will, but it has a massive problem with "making characters for the plot because why not". Like at least give the poor DCI names come on. Glad it's getting better though, even if Vanessa got butchered in the cuts...
Something that really bothers me with FNaF is how Scott doesn't really develop many of the MCI kids properly, it's honestly kind of upsetting, everyone but Susie feels like a stepping stone of a character.
I wish Scott would give grace to the MCI kids and hell maybe even these DCI kids that probably exist but we don't even know for sure?? it just feels depressing how a lot of the MCI are treated in the series, I really wish they were all given motivations, goals and personality like Charlie and Cassidy in the logbook.
I honestly think Scott should've written short stories about every MCI victim, like I want to know about these kid's lives before death and actually show that these kids were living breathing human beings and not just a number.
Scott kind of has an issue with making nearly all of his characters plot devices for the story, they kinda just go from a to b with nothing in between a lot of the times.
Something I really enjoy about Steel Wool is that they seemingly actually want to develop their characters, like Vanny had so much content until it was cut, Gregory and Cassie have a lot of character and I don't know if thats SW or Scott or both, but I enjoy it so much more and actually care about these characters because there's something to care about! I just wish it was the case for the MCI kids aswell
