    It's very flattering, humbling, and a little embarrassing too, to have everything laid out like this; the good, the not-so-good, the kinda bad, the bad, and the desperate too. Sometimes I wish I could go back and tweak this history a little, but it is what it is, and you're very correct in saying that I'm no genius. I appreciate the care you took in presenting all of this. It's very well done!
  • @mjiau1
    After seeing Scotts earlier games, I've realized that fnaf world Isn't a fnaf game, It's a Scott Cawthon game.
  • @dayminder7414
    "All library graphics. Except for the blob. I drew the blob." That makes it sound like he's so proud, yet also like something serious, something bad.
  • @megafan1137
    I cannot overstate enough jow grateful I am to hear someone acknowledging that Fnaf's "oversaturation" or "rushed output" wasn't just Scott milking a cow for all it was worth, but rather that was just how he's made games. Man's got speed.

    Time traveler: Kicks rock. The timeline: Scott Cawthon, creator of the well known video game franchise, Fart Hotel.
  • @mylestheman
    I love how simple the design of his short films are until the incredibly detailed robot eventually joins the plot
  • @GravityTrash
    The depression Scott Cawthon had that caused him to make fnaf makes so much more sense now It wasnt just because a single app got bad reviews, it was literal decades of pent up frustration from a tortured artist giving it his all. also it is INSANE how the human characters look like ass but the robot with a human face looks accurate, how the hell does that happen
  • Idk if it’s just me but I love the aesthetic of desolate hope. Just so ominous yet beautiful. Mechanical yet organic. You can tell just by looking at it that there’s a story behind that world. A story we may never discover due to its apparent depth and detail. The run down machinery and overgrown foliage just draws my attention in such an inexplicable way. And I love it.
  • The “say hello to the trap door” bit was genuinely hilarious in my opinion
  • "...if I were forced to sing those stupid songs for 20 years and never got a bow? I'd probably be a bit irritable at night too. So remember, these characters hold a special place in the hearts of children, so treat them with respect." - Phone Guy (Scott) in Night 1 of FNAF 1. Seeing as most of his early games were made for his children, this seems a little more than just a quirky introduction.
  • Wait, wait, wait, you mean to tell me that those weird Magic School Bus knock-off videos that my science teacher forced us to watch in 5th grade were animated by SCOTT CAWTHON?!?!
  • @_Mossenn
    The way he views machinery in general is almost fantastical. It’s so..unique. Genuinely, no other style matches it. He looks at a machine in a way I cannot process, like it is something incomprehensible and ancient.
  • @CRAZYMONYmc
    as a homeschooled Christian I'm surprised how much scott cawthon media I consumed as a kid before FNAF even came out lol
  • @justas423
    Scott really, really, REALLY likes detailed 3D Inorganic Models.
  • @FoxyMaster1016
    47:16 quick side note: those type of doors are a real thing, it’s a safety precaution so guards and employees don’t get trapped inside during a power outage
  • @mspaint93
    25:30 and the jokes like this throughout are genuinely hilarious. I love how its also clean and kid friendly, without being 'childish' or condescending towards children.
  • @NotSoGenesiz
    i kinda love how scott went from making hyper-detailed robots, to getting criticized to making things that look too much like robots, then turning back to making robots
  • @RD-170
    After seeing Desolate Hope’s art direction, I want Scott to do a similar game with a full team of programmers and animators
  • @jojofanatico6928
    i have said it and i repeat it: scott was made to make robots. they are so unique and amazing, full of deteails and just incredible looking. i would love to see a new gwme of scott starring all of his robots designes, it would be amazing.
