Did you hear about Scott Cawthon firing FNAF artist LadyFiszi for sexual FNAF drawings including children? It's on the FNAF subreddit page discussing the firing and backlash of LadyFiszi.

 

[Mr.Miyagi]

Did you hear about Scott Cawthon firing FNAF artist LadyFiszi for sexual FNAF drawings including children? It's on the FNAF subreddit page discussing the firing and backlash of LadyFiszi.

I looked through the post but didn't see any specific reference to drawing shit like that, though she did apparently write a fanfiction with Afton being aroused by killing kids (and included a reference to the "cover art" for it on some merch?). I might have overlooked it, though, the post is pretty long. Some of the stuff seems pretty ironic, given how the fandom cried over Scott getting harassed by busybodies over a campaign donation, but now they're whining about this lady being ableist and transphobic and whatnot. Then there's stuff like grooming allegations, followed by "the person posted no proof after being requested to, but we included it here in the post anyway."
I think the funniest part might be Scott apparently getting up in the middle of the night to do damage control, probably rubbing his temples and wishing he hadn't decided to hire edgy fangirls for official work. Hasn't really been the best couple years for the brand's image.

What? I mean I agree that she probably shouldn't have posted sexy animatronic fanart on her main since she's a paid professional working with Scott, but her sexy art + her Afton x loli fanfiction has been known for years now. I get that Scott probably doesn't browse the internet every day, but I feel like this topic has been frequently talked about in the subreddit for years every now and then. How did it take THIS long for him to take action?

I guess I won't hold it too much against Scott, wouldn't be surprising for a religious christian to be weirded out by this stuff, but I can't say I agree with his decision. This is the same fanbase that thinks lewding a 8 ft clown animatronic with a mature woman's voice is considered "pedophilia" because the spirit inside of her is a kid

I think it's worth reminding everyone that Scott has been cancelled for being a conservative Christian years after he made the very first FNAF game, and he was a conservative Christian long before that.

https://twitter.com/Treblebaps/status/1628534394058076162 (archive) Here's the thread that got popular about her. Apparently she groomed someone, was in nazi fetish groups, etc. There's screenshots showing her being way too into the idea of Child Rape so I don't think it's too outlandish Scott dropped her.
I'm surprised he hasn't responded about PinkyPills though, who has been in more drama than Fiszi, for constantly tracing, drawing the same weird pedo stuff Fiszi does, and also just being kind of a lolcow:

^ Adult woman bawwwing over someone else becoming FNAF's artist.

I'm just amazed the two artists Scott hired were both batshit insane terminally online women. I know he hired them early on and there weren't that many good artists for the game back in 2015, but still.

[rikochi88]

People rightfully saying that the callout thread mentions the weird art first rather than, yknow, the actual grooming allegations (archive)


But then turn around and bring up the ole "He supported transphobes and hates the gays!!1!" rhetoric when Scott is known to donate far more to LGBTQ orgs


Everyone involved here has terrible priorities

 

[Timmy Jolsen]

More lolcow related than FNAF itself, but look at the state of theft king in his latest video (just talking about his appearance, I really couldn't give a shit over the FNAF artist drama). I'm almost certain the man is back on heroin. Just look how skinny he is, and how much weight he has lost since he last showed himself on camera.

I don't know how much money he makes off of YouTube, but if he is making a lot that might not be a good thing. Give an addict money, and you know what happens.

Between metaphorically shitting himself all over livestream, telling multiple pity-party stories about how he is being blackmailed with no proof provided, and now looking like he has relapsed, I am surprised this man doesn't have a thread.

 

[Colon capital V]

Sorry for necroing this topic again but one thing always bothered me.

So the original idea was the killer killed kids, stuffed the bodies inside the animatronic suits.... and somehow the bodies were never found and he got away with it.

...... How?

Fucking how?

Like, even in the games its said people often complained about the smell. You seriously telling me nobody ever thought to check those things?

This is another thing that always boggled me about the FNAF series. People used to put Scott Cawthon up as this genius storyteller (something even Scott has laughed at in recent years) but his writing is R.L. Stine-tier at best.

I do find it a little strange how Phone Guy put a lot of emphasis on "The Bite of '87" being this big moment where everything was pretty much fucked for the company, but as the games progressed there were a lot more heinous acts being committed either in shadows or blatantly shown in the public (Bite of '83, the death of Will's daughter, springlock failures on other employees). Though I'll cut Scott some slack since he probably never expected his game to be that big of a hit and probably didn't have plans to follow up with the lore after the first game.

 

[Celebrate Nite]

Though I'll cut Scott some slack since he probably never expected his game to be that big of a hit and probably didn't have plans to follow up with the lore after the first game.

The bite of '87 is supposidly supposed to be the protagonist of the 2nd game when he completes his last night (i.e. the one where golden freddy appears and phone guy reveals "somebody used one of the suits, a yellow one"), so that lore was already closed and done with. The problem is that Scott has a REALLY bad issue of not explaining shit well, so the fans have to do his dirty work for him. Not to mention he likes to scatter the story all over the fucking place to confuse people...

• 2nd game - I'm gonna take you back to the past to play shitty games that suck ass
• 3rd game - OH SHIT ITS THE FUCKING FUTURE!!!
• 4th game - We're back to the past... again.
• 5th game - OH SHIT ITS THE FUCKING FUTURE!!! except not really because it takes place alongside FNAF 4/2/1???

I applaud the fans for making the effort to try to pice all of Scott's mess together, especially when you have """theorists""" on YouTube mucking the waters.

Honestly the Bite of '87 WAS important, and even FNAF4's marketing implied it was gonna be about the Bite (all the images that say "was it me?" with the number 87 being recurring)... only for Scott to basically troll the fans by dropping a minor hint that the game happens in 1983.

To be honest that "minor hint" is one of those things I always had an issue with. It's just a TV shows a cartoon for a bit then says "Fazbear and Friends 1983." Which in a real world context I would take to mean the game DOESN'T take place in 1983. Like imagine if you're watching TV and it says "Rocky and Bullwinkle 1959"... you would think its just saying that's the year the show was made, not that that's the current year (unless you're a feminist).

But apparently Scott at some point retconned it so that it was indeed the Bite of '83 and that '87 was just a mistake.

Funny thing, recently on reddit I supposed that Scott just makes shit up as he goes and that he occasionally just canonizes fan theories because he has nothing better and that the "story" is just him throwing random bits at a wall and seeing what sticks.... fans got MAD. Okay admittedly I only got two responses, because I think that's the amount of people left who don't basically see it the way I do. Even most FNAF fans on Youtube--even Matpat--have basically said this is a broken-down mess of a storyline that there's not really much point trying to "solve." It's like trying to pretend DC Comics actually had some decades-long grand narrative rather than being a bunch of bullshit made up by different authors who basically just did whatever they wanted.

So the original idea was the killer killed kids, stuffed the bodies inside the animatronic suits.... and somehow the bodies were never found and he got away with it.

Depending on how you view the timeline, there is a hidden card in the first game that says the killer was caught. People theorize that it was either Afton or Afton framed Henry and laid low until the springtrap incident

 

[SteelPlatedHeart]

I thought Scott stepped away from making any FNAF stuff as a whole and got unpersoned on Twitter after someone leaked his political donations, why are people going to him over this old stuff?

The movie was announced nearly a decade ago at this point, back in 2015. No way he's going to give up on it at this point even if he's more hands-off with the games.

Oh yeah, I did see some set pics.

Probably won’t be great, but I can appreciate them sticking to “actual animatronics and not cgi” for it.

This just gave me a dark thought.

If I were Scott and like, wanted to die or something, I'd set it up so one of the animatronics for the film bites a bit of my brain out.

Why did you just show us sjw comics from tumblr?

I wish we can get in contact with scott cawthon and get him to talk about his past
Not the fnaf side,not the Christian side
The time when he legit had his one man studio and sell animation assets and made legit movies like birdvillage and mushrooms
Since I've seen his old works recently and holy shit forget fnaf
From what I learn from his past was he was good with slapstick (tho in 3d it can be iffy) and making interesting characters
From a coffee machine on legs to different birds with bios an storys
And hell when dawko got to interview scott i wish he asked about this side of him and not the fnaf stuff
Like i wanna know what was his obession with these giant mega robots as they looked awesome

Yeah Scott's older style is great. FNaF is good but it doesn't let his artstyle really shine.

This is a render from Birdvillage. His old work really captures that 90s CGI that a lot of people are nostalgic for now. It's a shame so much of it is lost media. And we probably won't ever see him delve back into creating stuff like this, because, well, FNaF has him financially covered for god knows how long, and times have changed and I don't think a game with his artstyle would be received aswell as it was back in 2014. Any game he makes now would of course get interest just from association, but that's as far as it'll go.
I find it really fascinating. FNaF seems like a really boring speck among some of his other works.
Although he has also made some absolute horseshit. 20 Useless Apps comes to mind.

The FNAF movie set.

Ok, I hope this movie creates a Forrest Gump situation where the movie spuns off an actual food chain franchise.
