We know absolutely nothing about Shadow Freddy but this song makes him feel like some kind of omnipotent entity that is aware of everything that happened in the FNAF timeline
@@stardan0862 I think Shadow Freddy represents Afton and Shadow Bonnie represents Charlie. Shadow Freddy actively helps William and is mostly seen nearby him. Shadow Bonnie helps set up happiest day and is shown to defend remnant in FNaF AR.
I love how stark the difference between V1 and V2 are. Like they are fundamentally the same song with the same opponent and similar elements but they’re so clearly different. Like V1 just has Shadow Freddy as a mysterious, threatening entity. V1’s song is fast paced and pretty intense once you hit the drop, but it has a very energetic and somewhat “hopeful” vibe at least near the end. Like it’s trying to tell you that despite Shadow Freddy being a mysterious powerful entity that you can still survive him. But with V2, and as of now V3 being released, Followed is the FINAL song of the mod instead of Miller, which kinda solidified with how fucking terrifying the new verison is. It’s longer, more slow and EXTEMELY INTENSE and the official gameplay is fucking terrifying with shadow Freddy distorting and contorting himself just to mess with Brooke. Him possessing the OG 4 halfway through the song solidifies that instead of just being a mysterious threatening entity, he’s THE threatening cold blooded final boss with seemingly no motive. The tonal shift between V1 and 2 is so surprisingly huge but honestly very welcome. I fucking love this song for everything it brings and does and now with the terrifying charting and art of shadow Freddy in V3 I love it even more TLDR: shadow Freddy goes from random annoyance in v1 to an infantskinner in v2 while learning how to play the electric guitar and possess people
Oh yea forgot to mention: the tone of followed 2 is WAY darker and more terrifying then the original verison, plus SF’s vocals being more distorted and heavy adding onto how threatening he is and even the ending part, which picks up in energy and is supposed to be more “hopeful” has Brooke scared for his life, basically screaming his part wanting to be saved from this monster while it looks behind him and mocks him
@@kamakiriisabean7059I was about to say It doesn't seem like they are getting possessed or they ARE another form of SF, merely controlled to his will Foxy being the main proof for this (game) theory. He's not after bf, he's after SF. He wants to be freed. Also, it seems like the other 3 are more in distress than anything.
@@lifeisbreadbrosbutbetter9132this is also shown by how they are being hung by puppets, they are being forced to act like that and foxy being held by hands also proves that your theory is correct my friend.
I mean not realllyyyy all I think that ABSOLUTELY matters is the Song, and the chart. Characters can be cool and so can the art, but you're here for the M U S I C . Not saying that there's anything wrong with having absolute banging art and cool characters, only makes the experience better right?
I know this has been said alot but Im gonna say it anyways Followed V1 feels like "Theres more to this than just a game, we know what you don't." Followed V2 feels like "Theres no use in running."
@@imblackberriso like I’m literally just noticing this comment and like I’m a bit sick so ummmm We better get a song with ourple doing a Fortnite dance
@@imblackberri the fact that this song, after a whole mod of "oh my God guys, its ourple guy, look at him go :)" to fucking demons and nightmares, with the song nobody expected to be the final one, just makes it all the more sweeter Brooke should've FOLLOWED his instincts hehe
ironic considering the actual closet we got to afton is (Ourple Guy even tho he's based off michael, FAF!Afton, Dave Miller, SAM Springtrap, Prange Guy, and the now removed VHS William Afton) (Though if you really wanna get technical FAF!Afton or Prange Guy is the closet we got to William Afton since Ourple Guy and Dave Miller are more lighthearted versions of him)
Alright now that the mods out I can safely say this is the best thing that’s ever happened to this community. The sprite work is absolutely divine and the music being just as good. I genuinely can’t think of anything else to say other than bravo devs Bravo
ABSOLUTELY Agree The death animation for this song is also very bone chilling, I have also vowed never to even open the song ingame anymore after trying to exit the song through the pause menu.
Coming here after v3 and holy OH MY GOD Words cannot describe the level of just…EVERYTHING that this song has. It’s incredible. How have I not listened to this until now. This is one of…I think 2 fnf songs that have been able to actually raise my heart rate. Not from intensity/stress, but from pure, unbridled *fear*. And my god it is done in the best way possible. Put this song on your goddamn resume. Absolutely incredible work, Berri. Holy shit-
Followed V1 feels like “you wandered into a place you shouldn’t have. I’ll give you one shot to run away” Followed V2 feels like “You fucked around. You found out. You die”
Shadow Freddy's always been one of my favorite FNAF characters, and I don't really know why. Perhaps it's the mystery that surrounds him, but this song adds so much character to him. Makes it feel like we can understand the deeper meaning of the character just by listening to a song about him. Music works wonders that way, and I must applaud just how fantastic this arrangement is. You hit gold, and I'll continue to enjoy your creation for years to come.
"Dad why did you name me Friday Night Funkin’ Vs. Ourple Guy || FOLLOWED (V.2)?" Dad: Because the Friday Night Funkin’ Vs. Ourple Guy || FOLLOWED (V.2) dropped when you were born, so I thought it would be a cool name
I just love how they managed to turn a regular song like any other into final boss material between versions I honestly don't know which one I prefer they're so different
my favorite ourple guy song made even better and with a vague yet oddly compelling backstory... i love it so much you guys absolutely killed it with this
Followed V1 feels more intense and less intimidating but still makes you feel you're fucked This v2 ver actually makes it feel M E N A C I N G with the slower pace and more intense with the new beats added, now it doesn't makes you feel you're fucked IT TELLS YOU THAT YOU'RE FUCKED
V1 sounds more like ‘there’s a lot more to this story than you know’, with all the lore motifs and the fact that shadow Freddy is still a mystery to this day. V2 sounds like a direct attack, like ‘you know too much’.
"Who are you running from?" This pine gives me shivers becahse it implys that in this realm you cant escape him, theres no point in running because hes always gonna *follow* you. Really though this song is godly. I have no other words other than its simply a masterpiece. This is how you make a V2 Bravo devs.
am i dumb or something where does this line show up? is it in like a freeplay description or something because i genuinely cant recall that line appearing in the mod
@@frogginet5353It appears when you try to leave the song That your listening to After a few minutes a pop-up will appear saying who are you running from along with a creepy image of shadow Freddy
Here after the update. MY GOD the visuals didn't disappoint! This song is one of the, if not THE BEST FNF SONG OF ALL TIME both visually and in terms of the song itself, phenomenal work guys!
i only just saw this, but you're right, just something missing from the original that was so good but in the new version of the song, its just gone. this is really good
This is one of the most amazing fnf songs I heard! The awesome beat drops and melodies are fantastic! And this also gave a major final battle feeling. Great job!
MAJORLY regretting watching someone stream this game first before actually playing it! It would have been so much hype and I wish I just played it before thats just how amazing this entire mod is and ESPECIALLY this banger of a finale. Makes me want to be able to just erase the memory of the songs and play it all again.
This specific song makes it feel like you've actually cannot escape the fear that consumes you and is here to haunt and torture you FOREVER!!! You have really outdone yourself you three, I hope this will be part of V2.5.
Bro blackberri 100% you can agree this was a massive glow up from v1, v1 was a lot less threatening, this just hits you in the ass with violence. It makes you feel like Freddy wants you dead lmao. Not only that this just sounds so much better than v1 Fr
The fact that BF sings the beginning motif of Lore in this song implies that he’s heard it before this song happens in the canon timeline. The only three people that sing Lore are MatPat, Phone Guy, and Ourple Man. Since BF has only interacted with Ourple face-to-face, it is safe to assume that he learned the song from Ourple. This means that BF and Ourple are close enough friends that they sing together on regular occasions. In this essay I will-
Bruh. He sung the motif because Shadow Freddy did, that’s like the entire point of the song. Shadow Freddy’s been watching everything and therefore knows everything, hence all the motifs.
A cyan-haired boy fixed a broken arcade cabinet, and now... this will forever change his life... You guys made the Ourple Guy's universe of Shadow Freddy, "Sinnoh", a character based on an easter egg from some of the FNAF games, a lot more terrifyingly superior god-like being... and I absolutely love everything in this remastered track so much.
I somehow didn’t find this new version until Ourple Guy V3 came out. And I have to say…I am stunned. I thought Followed V1 was real good, a sleeper hit even. But when I unlocked this as the secret song and realized what it was about. In my head I could only think “Oh my god they didn’t forget this song…and they aren’t fucking around this time.” From the absolutely terrifying sprites, to this song just screaming dread, to the mechanic really embracing the idea of you needing to fight for your life ( Although I think it is bugged to where if you miss once after beating the souls you instant die. )….this is just incredible.
Oh NO WAY I completely forgot you were the one behind this masterpiece!!! Singlehandedly making 2 of my favorite songs in the mod, mans absolutely insane
ok i just saw the official gameplay of this and HOLY FUCK this is the best song in fnf I dont think any song could ever even come close to beating this, especially with the official gameplay
One of I think…two songs in fnf that ever made me feel *genuine fear* Don’t remember what the other one was, but the fact this song makes me feel fear says plenty.
@@VoidAcrid this song wasnt fear enducing it was cool as hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or should i say hot because hell is hot not cool lolo
>be me >playing ourple v3, just finished the mod >go to settings to change smths so that I can FC the songs better for completion >exit settings >suddenly, followed plays for some fucking reason >pause, exit 'cuz I didn't wanna do it first >regret
This character has quite literally 0 lore, especially considering it was never even real in the first place And yet this song makes it feel like it’s been pulling the strings this entire time
Wait really? I know nothing about fnaf and its lore and such and was looking everywhere to find anything about this silly guy. Because this song poses him as not just a god, but *the* god. And bro has no lore??
(2:37) I assume this part is supposed to be that FNAF 3 mini game where the animatronics are disassembled? Its played in its canonical order too. Its Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy last. I appreciate the consistency.
Miller didn't get a V2, but that might just be because Miller Z-Mixed has been hyped for a while and I doubt the mod devs would want to outdate it before it even releases.
i watched this, forgot about it and played ourple guy v3. absoluley blown away by followed. looking for reaction videos to the mod and i found this video and i went "ooOOOOOOOOOHHH DAMM WAIT OHHHHHHhh i get ittttt!"
@@PeriodicalMusic imma be honest. I skim through most mods I play. I played like 3 ourple guy songs and paid attention the others I had on mute and was wait for the song to end. Why I had it on mute? Home rules or something.
@@YumiAndHisDrip why even play the mod at that point. dont mean to like judge your style or anythiong but that just seems awfully disrespectful to the musicians of like any mod
@@PeriodicalMusic My mom. I played the mod only once. It was certain times where I just fully muted to avoid trouble. Fnf isn't very respected in my house hold but I still wanted to play it. I could of went back and played it at school but I don't tend to remember every mod I own. I own a lot shit so like it's always "Oh yeah I do have this". I hope this clear up how disrespectful I sounded cause my favorite part of a mod is the credits and enjoying what people make.
“10-22-2011:Brooke HAD TO HAVE left the house last night. He’s been crying and looking franticly around ever since he came back home. I don’t know what the hell happened. but it can’t be drugs. I’ve NEVER seen a drug do this of thing.”
10-23-2011: It’s definitely not drugs, drugs can’t make something follow us, the house is dark and I can see what looks to be a bear in the hallway with an weird purple tint.
I really like the idea that this interpretation of shadow freddy is as a sort of manifestation of the suffering and malice that the pizzeria's been suffused with; it hasn't been corrupted, it was born of evil and death
I adore the song but you really gotta make the vocals of the animatronics stand out more, my first listen of this song I couldn’t tell freddy from the backtrack lmao
