I Solved FNAF Security Breach RUIN

Hey everyone!!!! Today's video is my first FNAF theory after the release of FNAF Security Breach Ruin! I have never spent this long writing and re-writing a script, trying to make it the best it can be. And even then I'm still super nervous about this video. If you keep an open mind I think you'll have fun watching it. I hope you enjoy :)

Can’t wait to see MatPat’s reaction to this. This theory is amazing

[flamingphoenix]

You know you've made it in the fnaf community when Scott himself graces you with his presence

[the_godbodor]

I just realized, the random message you can get early in Security Breach that just says "fire dave, he sucks, " could actually imply the Silver Eyes Trilogy parallel since that is the name William uses when pretending to be an employee in the books.

[HeisenbergFam]

The fact Scott joined John's stream shows he cares about FNAF community
"remember this is just a theory" in MatPat's words "A GAME THEORY"

[AshishXMC]

FuhNaff not only showed Scott that he is getting the theory right, but he also gave him more ideas on fitting the puzzle pieces to his work in progress lore, cause he really did seem interested.

I love how much effort and thought was put into this, and honestly, any theory that doesn't just erase the past games and pretend they don't exist is a win in my book. Love it all mate! I look forward to the next one

[adrisantics]

John getting Scott in his stream really shows he’s moving on up and breaking barriers in the theorist community. Can’t be more excited 😌

[raeannahoskinson]

I love this theory! It makes so much sense, and you have a hell of a lot of research to back it up. Congratulations on Scott watching your stream, that’s a massive milestone!

[alexinator-hhfe]

I remember reading the FNAF books to catch up on lore before Ruin came out. And when I was reading the OG trilogy and noticed how the original restaurant had a huge mall built around it, it definitely got a raised eyebrow from me. So many details in the books seemed odd. Definitely did not catch the additional parallels of the cave though. Can't wait to see where this franchise takes us

[cwhong]

A well-crafted theory video.
I saw the stream Scott joined, and I thought Scott’s reaction to what John spoiled in the stream meant that parallels were drawn ONLY in Security Breach and Ruin.
But damn, predicting Sister Location 2? That’s surely “ambitious”, and this is why I find John’s theories intriguing.

[Gelstorm]

If you and MatPat work together, I'll bet you guys will solve all the mysteries on FNAF in no time.

[pilotalex]

I feel super dumb because I read the Silver Eyes trilogy way before I saw Security Breach or Ruin and I didn’t see any of the connections, but now, as a FNAF book-reader, it’s clearer.

Don’t let anyone bring you down John, your theories are some of my favorites to listen to. And this is the best fnaf theory I’ve heard in a while! ❤

[mildlycornfield]

The parallels are certainly there! I'd be seriously surprised if this arc wasn't at least brought up as a possibility during development, even if it's not where the story ultimately goes

[TheKillerike]

A fantastic theory, one that almost seems to line up too well. The parallels are there and pretty dang close, between the games and the books. I'm definitely on board with this theory going forward.

I said this on Mat's theory as well, the only thing that sticks out to me is the Afton ending being completely written off as not real. Yes, I agree that PQ ending is canon; but it feels like the Afton ending could be as well.

It might be too meta of a thought, but it's weird to me that we find all of these comics scattered around the pizzaplex. The Afton one in particular being found in his boss fight room. Which, realistically, would only make sense to be down there if someone else had been and drew that. (Again, might be overly thinking collectible mechanics, but this is FNAF)

If the Afton ending never happened, it feels weird that "Gregory" would draw a picture of a decayed Afton and the Blob. A creature that was introduced in SB and we don't see untill the very end. It's a unique design, including Funtime Freddy being the head of the Blob. We know that the Blob is real, as we see it in the early parts of Ruin. It's also what dug out that circular and riged tunnel, if you ask me.

Clearly Afton is gone too, which would make sense by this theory if it was never Afton. But the Blob still exists. So I don't know if Gregory is the one who drew those comics, if the Mimic or someone else did (somehow), it just seems odd to me.

Plus, there's also Vanny graffiti in the entryway, which shouldn't be there if she's been freed; and there's all the writing and graffiti within the vent leading to her hideout.

TLDR: I think a weird mix of PQ and Afton ending occured. To what degree, I don't know. There are just a few things that strike me as odd to rule out the Afton ending completely.

Everyone please stay respectful in the comments, even if you can debunk the theory or don't personally like it, you can say that without being nasty to John!

[IkerUnzu]

I was there 🥲✨ Can’t believe Scott joined the stream it was amazing. Loved every part of it and this theory !!

[GriffinAAN]

"Need more proof" is a sentence that brings me so much joy. Amazing theory, John!!! Can't wait for more!

[amiiredhead]

Damn, this series gets more and more twisted and confusing but increasingly interesting as well! Nice hint on the reality merging with the digital world, since I can't tell the book's and game's lores apart anymore😂

[etrains]

anyone else remember when FNAF was a creepy Chuck-E-Cheese style horror game with a few small lore implications? Props to you, John, for working so hard to solve of all this and have it actually make a ton of sense, because my brain is officially broken at this point.

[lectrx]

Can't wait for Matpat to turn this into a 6 part mini-series.
