This is the exact moment FNAF became a franchise for children. In the desk man minigame from FNAF world, the man at the desk expresses his regret for what he has created, things he created to avoid disappointing people. He tells us that he can’t deactivate his next creation: Baby. *play baby voicelines. The man on the desk is Scott. At this point FNAF had too much potential to end, but he couldn’t keep his sanity trying to satisfy everyone with the story. The minigame ends with a black screen saying “to be continued”. It was too late to deactivate FNAF, so Scott continued the series with a new direction for a younger target audience that would keep the franchise alive and profitable.
This channel takes heavy inspiration from ID's Fantasy, Pastra, Ryetoast, Fuhnaff, Game Theory, Dawko, Shycrow, Uhyeah, and many others, if you like my content, you'll love theirs :) - Hry
Just to clarify, I don't consider the early games to be kid's horror because they were made more for all ages, not specifically children. I feel like that changed a bit after FNAF 3, mostly because Scott started making games purely to try to please the fanbase. The FNAF World cutscene looks like the moment Scott locked in on the new direction. I wouldn't say that FNAF is fully a kids franchise yet, but it definitely looks like it's taking that path, especially with the books.
Sorry for paragraphing, to make up for it I'll do a little shameless plugging

Very true
FNAF 4
id say with security breach, totally a kids franchise now
FNAF 1 is a 12+, it’s never been an adult game
i'm sorry, especially with the books? the books are quite literally the most disturbing and most gory shit in all of fnaf, what are you talking about?
Fun fact: FNaF is technically the reason most mascot horror series exist
a great blessing and a great curse at the same time
@@NightGuardJohnny I know, it’s a curse that blesses you with CZcams views from children because they think poppy playtime or Garten of Ban-Ban is scary (not directed towards you [also neither are remotely scary])
@@dublxml I have zero interest in either of those two franchises lol and I agree
In reality it's more thanks to poppy playtime. That's the real game that started that annoying endless pit of cringe horror games that last few months. Fnaf only gave the idea but the one who started it it's poppy playtime
Texas chainsaw massacre wouldn’t be Texas chainsaw massacre without leather face. Halloween wouldn’t be Halloween without Michael myers. It didn’t really make the idea but it might have introduced it to a new generation
Springtrap saying “Skibidi Toilet” is perfect. 💀

The ending only shows that Scott is an absolute freaking genius. Because Scott ending his life was literally the Scott in universe who developed the games based off the true story, so the game developer who “fed us lies”, was the actual Scott in the universe and that’s how he covered up the fact that he kept changing the games story. It’s because he WAS the in universe developer.
God that man’s a fucking genius
U said the f word
@@PeanutsandbutterSg u like, 8 or something?
i don’t understand but i really want to, can someone rephrase this please?
@@Xtreme-qk5qg no lm 9 this my mom acount
@@lobstermilkIn the FNAF lore, Fazbear Entertainment hired an indie developer to make games based off of the tragic events that happened at the restaurants a to distract people and make the allegations/evidence not seem as important; which improves the way people see the company. The games that the dev makes are the FNAF games that Scott made in real life.
Basically, Scott inserted himself into the FNAF canon; meaning that HE was the one that was fired by Fazbear Entertainment to make the games that exists in-universe.
I believe FNAF is a game for teenagers, because most of the games are rated 12+, and were beta-tested by Scott's children
I wouldn't necessarily say that FNAF is now a kid's franchise. As you said, it's more of a hybrid between the two sides of the fandom. You have the kids and then you have the older fans who are now adults. Security Breach, while not immediately obvious, does have its dark moments and instances that have you question how the hell did this pass safety precautions.
Take the fire ending, for example, the fact that Freddy literally pushed Vanny off the roof of the Pizzaplex, resulting in him being beyond repairing and killing Vanessa. Yes, that ending isn't canon, but the thought that Gregory envisioned something like that happening is pretty disturbing if you ask me. Let's also not forget that 3 therapists were murdered since they were all close to finding the truth about what was going on at the Pizzaplex. Not to mention, the kitchen in the Pizzaplex has a trash compactor practically in the middle of it where anyone can easily fall in. So some disturbing things have happened in Security Breach, they just so happen to have occurred behind the scenes.
Not to mention that in one of the therapy tapes, it's been heavily implied that Vanessa's mother commited suicide after losing custody because Bill, Vanessa's father, manipulated her into saying things against her mother in court. I think the word suicide from Vanessa's therapist was censored with a static sound effect.
@@lecursedturtle9385 and about the staff repair station, in those giant saw things you can barely see dried blood on the saws
Spoken like a child.
@@doctorpie91 are you seriously calling me a child based on my opinion?
Yeah @@TheHorribleHorse
FNAF is mildly for kids.
For kids: security breach, most of fnaf world, maybe SL
Not got kids: 1,2,3,4,6,7,HW, Ruin. Literly most of the fan content (VHS tapes, theroys, "fan art" )
I would completely agree if it wasn't for the books, which are starting to get integrated more and more into the lore and are definitely written for middle schoolers. FNAF brands itself as a franchise for kids, which is mostly what I was getting at and what slowly started after FNAF World.
Ruined? I was ruined once. They locked me in a room. A ruined room. A ruined room with Mimics
The mimics ruined me
It’s crazy how all the other games exist, just because Scott wasn’t pleased with the FNAF 3 jumpscares, all of this convoluted lore wouldn’t have existed had Scott just made the jumpscares scarier
While I wouldn't really call FNAF a kids franchise, the series has certainly made it seem that way.
As seen by Security Breach, there were a lot of things that were removed due to censorship or the fact that its fanbase is mostly compromised of young children.
Yeah, I wouldn't say that it's fully a kids franchise yet, but it's currently on the path to become one, especially with the books. I should have talked more about the books in this video. They aren't bad, but they are 100% written at a middle school reading level, and now the books are getting integrated into the lore.
I don't feel like SB is a good way to predict the way the franchise is going. Look at FNAF VR, that was the first game of this new era, and was also developed by Steel Wool, yet people ignore that game when talking about the direction the franchise is going in. The fact that SB was more like a one-off is even further proven by Ruin, and how good that DLC is
@@NightGuardJohnny I wouldn't say the books are aimed at middle schoolers, especially when you consider how much violence, blood and gore there is in them, especially in the tales from the pizzaplex books
@@anorak3334idk, today i saw them promoted in a walmart kid’s toy catalogue
I feel like the games were on some level “kids” horror games from the beginning due to having such a focus on jumpscares. Don’t get me wrong most are fun, but let’s face it, a game that focuses so much on jumpscares is non scary at best and goofy at worst. As for the sci-fi concepts, I personally like stuff like remanent, but the games lost me after pizzeria simulator (granted, that’s because that was the best ending imo). To be fair, this is coming from someone who’s a sci-fi addict.
Theres suspense in the original that’s what it made it scary not the jump scares
Completely fair, I don't mind the sci-fi stuff too much either. Pinned comment for my thoughts on whether the early games were for kids
The original game didn't "focus on jumpscares" lol, you only got jumpscares if you failed to protect yourself, if you get jumpscared that's your own fault.
Whether or not the beginning of Fnaf was intenddd for a younger audience or not, kids were still interested in this franchise anyway.
Back in the days of Fnaf 2, I only heard but haven’t really gotten into Fnaf yet, however my old friends got into and couldn’t stop talking about it, and we were all in third grade at the time.
I then looked at the franchise myself after a talk with my friends and I dug up on all the disturbing themes this franchise portrayed.
Some kids out there like myself do like horror and gory stuff, even if it’s not really a topic kids should be exposed to.
True
… kids, am I right!
Yep
They don’t know how to act anymore man…
Like what happened to middle/high schoolers were gods
Idk if I’d say the humor in SL and pizzeria simulator had anything to do with the transition, since fnaf has always had that kind of humor. (Remember the ‘Don’t poop on the floor’ rule on the wall in fnaf 1) But yeah, fnaf has definitely changed unfortunately.
I also feel like a lot of people have no idea what fnaf is actually like and think it’s nothing more than kids first horror game. I think that’ll change once the movie comes out. Can’t wait to see all the Karen’s calling it demonic lol.
I’m not too mad about the red eyes in the fnaf movie,I just like the og eyes
same
Fnaf fans shitting themselves over the colour of a fictional robot's eyes ( it isnt 100% lore accurate, fnaf movie: RUINED!!! )
I thought that it was a nod to Bonnie having red endoskeleton eyes in the first fnaf 1 trailer from 2014 but I'm fine with them being in the movie side note isn't the fnaf movie an alternate universe then the games so it would have different lore if we were going for game accurate then mike would have been purple because in the timeline that most people agree with now sister location already happened before fnaf 1 so people are out here complaining about red eyes when it's an alternate story that's just similar to the games why aren't they mad about mike not having rotting purple skin.
@@Blue_Lambda Nice way of completely watering it down. Glowing red eyes were a red flag that FNAF has fully lost everything that made it in the first place. It's one thing if scott doesn't want his horror franchise to be horror anymore and makes hello neighbor style games like security breach, but if even the source material in the old games can't even be portrayed in the way it originally was anymore, then it's safe to say fans that liked the earlier games over the later ones have no hope anymore. The series at a point went in a completely different direction and there are many people who wish it didn't
@@Blue_Lambda if you think thats an overreaction, to put it into perspective, it's so bad now that the widely accepted opinion i see now is that fnaf was always goofy. Let me just list a few actual real comments (Not on this video, it was on another) I've read that couldn't make me angrier: "Fnaf fans finally hit puberty and have to accept that fnaf was never scary to begin with" "People like to mix up dark lore with dark presentation. Sure, the lore was dark but that's about it. The games were never like that" "I think fnaf VHS videos have caused a lot of people to remember fnaf as a lot darker than it is when in reality it was never that dark. Even the springlock cutscene which people portray as super violent was only just a sprite with some red pixels for blood" and a lot of comments that say VHS type videos are overly edgy and just generally shitting on the overall idea of wanting fnaf to be horror. Its like everyone I see now wasn't around liking fnaf at the beginning like I was or for the same things I did. And by the way, I have plenty of things to shut down everything said in those replies I listed, but I won't waste any more of your time on this already long ass unwarranted reply. So, basically what im trying to say is, the indescribable feeling the original games gave me, the tone of the series, everything i originally loved about it, has not only been lost to time, but it also gets completely belittled. I cant even talk about fnaf anymore because its portrayal and public perception are completely warped from what I loved, and so any sign that the series is not only continuing to go in this direction, but is also rewriting the tone of the only parts of it I did like, is just deeply upsetting to say the least. I would do anything for scott to make a game for the original fans again.
i miss when it was a tragic story with eerie games and hidden messages and such
This golden Freddy jumpscare in the intro cards is so funny 🤣
The movie shows everything fnaf has become because of kids
I really disagree that the humor added to Sister Location makes it kiddy. I think it's perfect in conflicting the darker tone of the rest of the game.
Also the jokes in Pizzeria Sim are about criminally negligent business practices...what every kids loves.
2016 seems nostalgic
Tbh scott is an absolute genius. I think things started to get more kid friendly after he retired, ama when he gave everything on the hands of steel wool studios. Cause security breach really made me disappointed, it didn’t feel like fnaf, it didn’t feel like something scott made, it felt like some sort of poppy playtime thing .
Scott is a fucking genius thought, you cannot deny it.
In my opinion fnaf should’ve remained a game for a more mature audience, but it’s to late anyways.
I stopped playing FNAF when Sister Location came out and seemed like there’s no more lore…
It wasn’t FNAF World, it was Sister Location with those goofy all girly designs
Fnaf is not for kids. If you want to argue with a brick wall then go ahead. I will never consider fnaf being for kids.
N e v e r
Kids will still like it anyways
@@bloxyton they should not be in the fandom
nothing anyone can do about that@@alandoro8901
I feel bad for scott
Another awesome video! Keep up the good work 👍
Thanks :)
Like most people in the comment (and even you), I believe FNaF was always went to a pretty wide audience, adults, teenagers or even kids. I agree with you on the fact that it became more and more open to a younger demographic (FNaF World and the books being the first step in that direction), mainly because time passes and new generations of fans join in constantly. FNaF World was also Scott experimenting with his franchise, making fun of it while also going back to his RPG style game. While the horror aspect of FNaF is its key component, I don't think it's a bad thing it became more accessible with time. The same way it became more sci-fi and less paranormal after FFPS.
Thank you for explaining this
This has Been a question I have had for a long time
good thing ruin seems to be trying to fix this
Yes I think steelwool will start to slowly rebuild game after game
I love six days of BanBan
Deserves more likes istg
Keep up your good work
Ok thankyou so much dude. I feel honered
Bro, FNAF 6 was actually scary. UCN was when it became a weak horror game
Dude this is literally the exact video I was gonna make on my channel. You got every point I was gonna cover to about how Circus Baby was the creation of a failed experiment. Hell even Scott has hammered that theme in his story over and over again in every single game and book practically with there having been 3 of something only for a 4th one to be inferior and then broken apart only to then turn into a monstrosity that then funnily enough always somehow gets sidelined to Afton's story. It feels like FNAF has been a repeat for some time but I just want to congratulate ya cause this is everything I was gonna discuss as well.
Fact: Children were the worst thing to ever happen to FNAF
fnaf humor is at its best when its dark humor.
I think we all can agree that most stuff that could have made Security Breach more Creepy was lost in the Cut Content
little error in the thumbnail i noticed- it says march 13, 2016, but the first words in the video are may 13, 2016. just thought i would point it out 🤷🏾
basically the thumbnail should be may 13 2016
Thanks, idk how I make these mistakes sometimes lol
I found your channel not to long ago I love the videos
My brother in christ the previous games were playtested by scott's kids.
If Scott cawthon used Lonestar PC when making the fnaf games then succeirty breach is good
Scott Cawthon didn’t make security breach 💀
Security Breach is when FNAF truly became "Mascot Horror" - Boring, too bright and colorful to be scary, and confusing, nonsensical lore. Oh, and made for kids. Nice video btw, subbed.
The exact moment that FNAF was never a kid franchise to begin with because it has child murder in it and all and also the exact moment that FNAF should have never became a kid franchise because FNAF it's not really kid friendly FNAF like poppy playtime like poppy playtime said their game isn't kid friendly and it's going to get darker FNAF is a horror game to.
If I sense FNAF WORLD, I click.
Honestly, 2016 is when i 'gained my consciousness' so you can rlly say that kids just saw it cool. I even saw a 3rd grader with a freddy shirt on in 2017
4:11 ain’t no way you put Toad Town music 😭😭
So you're saying Baby made the series for babies
Big fan dude
It was a kids franchise from the start. Most of the people that played it back then were 7-11. For fuck sake i was 8 years old when i got into it in 2014
THEY SHOULD JUST ADD SWEARS AND SOME GORE
There is gore in franchise
My fnaf speech: E! FNAF IS E!
i've found myself hating fnaf,mostly because of the community and lack of good games like the first 5
But still,it's still fun to revisit the early games and try some fangames

i wouldn’t say i hate fnaf, but it’s just not the same as it was. fnaf 6 on top though
The Bowser’s Inside Story music >>>
i think it wassecurity breach. every game was dark. even pizzeria sim.
lets all be honest, this series did end with fnaf 6, it, just like afton, died that day in the fire, the series died with him, but in some perverse imitation of its own antagonist, it came back, springtrap, a splayed mess of metal and rotting flesh, like the series at that point, had his rotten, burnt circuit boards being revived into a new, diluted form, no longer himself, but a defiled replica, just like the series itself at that point, that just kept mediocrely marching forward, taking over the minds of those vulnerable, eternally being alive, but dead. just like Michael said in Sister Location "I (the series) should be dead, but i'm not". sorry for rambling but i couldn't help noting the thematic parallels of coming back but still being dead.
Mr Johnny Because Your My Favorite CZcamsr You Choose What I Upload Next
Dream theory was never intended.
It’s really sad that it did. It used to be so good
It's still good
desk man ending i say its a sl teaser but it shows henry dying and saying the speech you could see that in the rectangular layout oh sister location the story is not kid friendly ennard scoops out organs?
Didn’t say Sister Location was made for kids. It was the first game to start the transition to that audience in my opinion
Bro CZcams destroyed FNAF bro like for example Glamrock Freddy and Circus Baby show they make it for kids like is it even FNAF anymore like bruh
I'd say it's after Sister Location.
As Fnaf World was supposed to be "misleading" but scary once you go deep into it.
Sister Location I believe was the last good game.
But it was a hard topic to do.
pizza sim?
This is super interesting, because, I don't know if I can pinpoint when it became for kids. It definetly did dumb down near sister location but I wouldn't say it was for kids.
FNaF World is such an anomaly because on one hand it's very much a kids game but that's such a surface level reading of it. And on the other hand you have some of the realest emotional beats being delivered by the literal creator of the series.
I think sister location began to pander to kids but I think probably UCN or AR is when it really pivoted to being a kids game.
I think it was around the 6th game.
Mainly the day sections.
I think what happened was that the levity of Sister Location began to increasingly trump the horror elements of the series. It was initially a way to add some heart to the unnerving nature of the underground Sister Location bunker; I remember Scott saying something about how previous titles had put him in something of a bad headspace, since the entire franchise pre-FNAF World was pretty grim conceptually, so I assume that adding some humor likely helped him to not burn himself out on horror games. However, that levity and style of humor gradually took a life of its own until it became something of a crux for the series.
I wouldn't say anything before Security Breach was a "kid's game", at most I'd say games like UCN were for general audiences. I just think that the series was increasingly sacrificing dread and eeriness for humor and character. I think it would be pretty easy to course-correct the franchise back into horror, but I don't think they really wanna do that.
Hi Johnny!!!
I’ve never seen someone over the age of 14 detest or reject this notion. Fnaf has become a multimedia franchise marketed towards children ages 6-14.
Im a kid and like it before fnaf world
I miss the scaries. Ruin did alr.
I never really found the series scary
it’s kid friendly horror
so does 2014

fnaf 1 phone calls are we not funny?
freddy nose honk does any one even remember me?
getting fired for odor?
yeah the last call is kinda sad the others are kinda funny.
The phone calls were increasingly sad especially night 4, the honk was fine i wont disagree, he got fired for odor most likely because either A: this takes place within a childs dream or B: He was already scooped at that point and probably was made of mostly rotting tissue.
michael got fired for odor because his insides and skin were peeling and rotting as his body slowly broke down after he was scooped

Common ,fnaf is not only an adults or kids,fnaf was meant for all ages ,teens,kids,adults,every age,fnaf was given life from scott cawthon genius idea,and the games grew becasue all ages fans like the theme,and the first fans like it,but the games grew more because teens ,and then kids and adults started to like the frainchise and fnaf grew lot more because the franchise games grew,and stayed to get books and awsome funko merch and all series became and iconic franchise for all ages and thats why fnaf is awesome, is for any age and for anyone who enjoys the animatronics designs and more content it grew and became awsome
I feel like pizzeria simulator was the one meant for the highest age group of all of them. Sure it had a lot of goofy childish stuff, but in terms of the main survival gameplay and story of it all, it just feels like its not at all meant for children.
william appleton???
I run a five nights at freddys account with a decent amount of followers, the mojoraty of people i talk to are 15-20. I have only seen 2 kids on my page. Security breach was childish, but fnaf has only gotten darker. My ex nearly threw up from one of the books because of how dark it was. There was a poll for the fnaf fans ages, the end results were the majority of fnaf fans are 15-17. So no, fnaf is not for kids, if it wete for kids it wouldnt resolve around child murder, the books wouldn't mention drugs, and yes, one of tbr books has a sex scene. So age ratings of games, lore, statitics, and polls will tell you fnaf is not for kids and barely any kids play it. I have done research and thats what i have to say.
I didn’t want to but is took the advise and watched the vdeo
