RUIN: A Phenomenal DLC for a Terrible Game 

THIS

God. That ending was so confusing, but when you realize what’s actually happening, it’s shocking.

I'm sorry, the WHAT ending?

@@RushWheeler It's called the Brazil Ending in the game files

@@RushWheeler It's the one with the Freddy Cutout. The files call it "Brazil"

it blew his mind too

​@@snarkychan7504🤯

How are we sure monty did kill bonnie

​@@Demonic_AppelMonty didn't kill Bonnie According to the mesages from main game Monty got upgrade his claws after Bonnie disappeared. And then ppl just forget abt it and kept saying monty isn't innocent

That ending literally made me cry when I found out what's actually happening 😭😭😭

whoever named it the brazil ending needs an raise 👏🥶

​@@toastedprocastinator YOU ARE GOING TO *_BRAZIL 🇧🇷🇧🇷_*

apparently it was called brazil ending because it was based off the movie “brazil”

Yall soft lol

Agreed !

I was thinking that it said prototype becouse someone tryed to re build Freddy's body after it got destroyed by vanny and put prototype on the bottom of his foot to show thats its not finished

I hope this isn't the last we see of Glamrock Freddy, I hope he returns one day.

​@@sammyjaohnson5631Who? In SB every single staff member was murdered and the place shut down. Literally nobody was there that could have been capable of that.

@@sammyjaohnson5631 you don't put "prototype" on an existing model, even if rebuilding something. Prototypes are labeled for being freshly built/created/produced. Also, it would be incredibly random to include a random plot point about someone trying to rebuild freddy because that provides nothing to the lore really. It makes more sense what the Original Comment said because it still ties into the canon ending.

So the movie is called the Brazil Ending?

​@@christianblackmon5609The movie is just called Brazil

Oh god. Considering the AR world does get altered by her memory and emotions to some extent, as can be seen by anything AR related around Roxy, that actually makes horrifically much sense. This ending just went from weird nonsense to the emotionally worst one for me, ouch.

​@@remor698it gets worse when you know where the name came from It's not a reference to the country, but rather a movie which i believe is from the 80's? I have not watched it so i don't know much of the story. But from what i know it's about a guy who is stuck being tortured in a government building, until somebody saves him and they both escape to live a happy life together But then it's revealed that he was never saved, that was all in his head as he had gone insane and will remain in that facility for god knows how long Of course i might have missed some details here, since all i know is from a summary i saw in a video about this ending of ruin, so i'd recommend actually watching the movie or searching more about it to know the full and accurate details

@@Roseberry606 has been a while since i saw it, but iirc, it gets worse, the reason the dude is on that position in the first place is because somewhere, somehow, someone made a mistake and he got sent to be tortured, instead of the actual person who should be, and a part of the plot of the movie, is the dude with the help of the woman who rescued him, file a report/complaint to free him legaly

I literally cried when I got this ending because I instantly understood what was actually happening... And I still do cry about this 😭😭😭

@@Pizza-Supremacyits a video game dude.

Its like an evolution on nightmare Fredbears design with the stomach mouth

you guys see the stream?

@@whenyourcatexitsrealitywhat stream

@@YEY0806 Not just an evolution, but a wonderful callback. A scared child’s best friend and symbol of safety (Fredbear plush, Glamrock Freddy) being turned into something hostile and nightmarish and dangerous.

Crazy thing: Freddy might think he's being helpful by shoving Cassie in there.

or Roxy slamming Cassie into the ground so hard she goes limp before the jumpscare can even end.

@@BasicViewer yeah I was gonna mention that but it's not that easy to tell unless your using free cam

The animations are SO much creepier in Ruin! It's awesome

I think when you first said "in ruin" you meant in base Security Breach

@@bigbadgammagnome yeah I did thanks for the correction

Yeah, I sure hope it does

Yeah. It feels like they learnt from security breach, What to do and what not to do, and I hope they apply this for HW 2 as well (because the first was great, and they’ve proven they atleast barely listen to what people like)

@@south452 I mean a reason I think the base game was so bad is because before help wanted steel wool was vr company, with this being steel wools second non vr before this was a mobile game.

It'll likely get better, security breach was one of steels ones first triple a games since theyve only been doing vr stuff, and after all the feedback from security breach they used it to make ruin, so it'll likely go up from there,@@notalivethenotable4164

ey that's what i said lol@@jacksonlaffoon4265

This and the dialogue with cassie shows the player that something is wrong before the reveal that he is headless.

I thought he would crawl

It also implies that he has ball joints for knees... which is super weird when you think about it.

I thought he'd be like Legs from It Steals But with his body between his legs

Ruin and help wanted shows they can do smaller, contained games very well. Nearly everything wrong with security breach can be traced back to the pizzaplex being so big.

Forced by who?

Publishers or higher-ups even in the same company.@@user-le1zw5nk9w

@@user-le1zw5nk9w By their publisher. Most dev companies don't publish their own games

@@user-le1zw5nk9wSony.

Do you think that in a few years? Steel Wool will release a complete ultimate edition of Security Breach with cut features re added back, more game modes, and most importantly More Vanny?

That's exactly what I was thinking.

@@rickyrackey7930 AND MORE DAYCARE ATTENDANT!!!!!!!!!!!! ;m; I miss him!

​@@rickyrackey7930 that would be pretty cool

Agreed !

Exactly! Mimic’s existence not only makes the future of fnaf much more exciting, not only is Mimic a terrifying and interesting villain, but ALSO it completely redeems afton’s character. Now, Afton ain’t peepaw, and he doesn’t always come back. He’s in UCN, or just completely gone (depending on if you believe frights is in the games or not), he’s not a god, he’s just a man who thought he was invincible, a man who thought he would always come back, but in reality he’s just a guy with a massive ego.

​@@duckman9327and furry

​@@duckman9327also the epilogues for tales from the pizzaplex made the mimic feel like a major threat just like in the ruin DLC

This exactly! If SB didn't exist, then Ruin would just be the usual "kids' entrainment establishment that's now run down", but since before there was SB, it feels unsettling to see the once colorful Pizzaplex become this maze of horrors

​@@enigmatic3194if the game weren't a hot mess, i would say it was intended but it just had people capitalize on that image

I'm exited for FNAF VR 2 as well but I fear it might not live up to the hype.

@@The_Pure_form_of_Autism I have a good amount of faith in Steel Wool after they clearly picked up their slack with Ruin. But I will temper my hopes, just in case.

@@The_Pure_form_of_Autism People at the Pax event who have played the demo haven't said that there's anything wrong with it.

and then in Fnaf vr 2, you are cassie's dad, manipulated to do tasks with the mask, eventually bring able to take it off and see the world you were truely interacting with, eventually the mimic gets bored with you and sends glitchtrap to kill you with robots and turn you into Maskbot, to send the mask to the next person, who just appears to be your daughter, Cassie. Why do I talk about her dad in fnaf vr 2? because who else would have a wrench and a mask like that... hm?

or is a reference to the Brazil meme

@@whyiwakeup6460 It's not

@@nachonaitor5535 aww thanks!😁❤️

imagine the mimic shedding its endo like a snake then growing larger and larger until he becomes a giant

I've been wondering about that myself! I wonder if the Mimic would have been able to somehow remotely use that hand if Cassie successfully escaped... Though, since Gregory ended up sending Cassie to her supposed doom with the Mimic's hand basically right beside her in the elevator, I suppose you could say that Cassie may have... died by the Mimic's hand? :^]

@@theinsomniacpotato9002 I’m pretty sure it’s confirmed in the books that The Mimic can change its body (in the books it’s current form is a spider like creature) so it’s not out of the realm of possibility’s that The Mimic can just grow back it’s arm or something similar

Right definitely an improvement

I think what it demonstrates is that they'd do well to stick to smaller, focused games. They're kind of small - they obviously love the FNAF Franchise, but like No Man's Sky, they reached too far with a passion project and came up short. Ruin demonstrates their skills at making things better for their size.

There definitely is a bit of filler and unpolished bits, but it’s pretty good compared to others in the genre and base SB. (I wish they’d actually have a story that isn’t vague and non-existent to be explained later, but that’s extremely wishful thinking.)

@@Zangamarth Honestly I agree with the smaller games idea, smaller can possibly mean more games and more polished games too

agreed. sb is far too much of a flawed product to be "fixed" by something like a dlc, because it is flawed to its a core. a house with a rotten foundation will not stand unless the foundation is destroyed and rebuilt. that sort of thing. but, despite it being a really low bar to reach, (and i really cannot emphasis that enough, LOW bar to reach. i dont meant to put ruin down but i am not going to praise it endlessly for doing the bare minimum) ruin did better. steel wool is not _awful_ (as in they dont have potential at all, im not going to lie and say i really like any of their games lol) at making games, theyre just a bit blinded by ambition. its not like i trust them to make a _fantastic_ game as of right now, but they have potential to do better in the future.

I’m happy to see that they gave Roxy more depth (and even some redemption) because I tend to be skeptical of moody, arrogant (and alike, you get the idea) characters simply being that superficial in their character (as in, there’s gotta be more to them than just that); it’s part of the reason she caught my attention, especially from her lines where it sounds like she’s thinking out loud or talking to herself about being the best and such. So seeing her get expanded on as a character to being more than what a lot of people insulted her for, was sweet to me.

u copied a video or short that has already stated this. its better to do ur research ur self then go by what influencers sat and just believe it. unless steel wool come out and outright say its a nod to it, u cant definatively state this is true. ecspecially when it comes from influencers ur so quick to jump ahead to believe. i personalky take what any influencers say with grain of salt unless ive also found out this to be true as well from what ive personally gathered witnessed and or seen. even some influencers out there often say to take even what they say with a grain of salt and do ur own research to find ur own answers and conclusions because influencers tend to thrive off of misleading and false content, tips and stuff like that to drive their fan base and community and viewers in the specific direction they want to control or take advantage of. you often see this with cod youtubers in which their "tips" tend to be sly hidden methods to make the player base more toxic, cringe and worsen the game for others by trying to mislead their viewers to make out this is okay without directly stating this or pretending this isnt their intention. i cant remember a cod youtuber that ive seen quite a few shorts and videos on but hes this wannabe bams youtuber that tries to act like him by copying his playstyle in ways, has this false ego on him and is these cringe content creator that endorses toxic behaviour and does a poor job of rinsing people and getting under peoples skin. the other youtuber ive seen which is mainly his shorts is also a cod youtuber. does these tips and tricks to try and guide players to play better in cod. although this seems helpful from 1st glance, i have seen in quite a few of his shorts and maybe 1 or 2 videos that he does try and attmept this sly method at times to try and influence people he gives these so called tips to play a certain way for his own advantage. he expects players to tryhard and no life the game thru such methods in which arnt always factual let alone beneficial for alot of players. hes not a bad person from what ive been able to tell but he does things i dont think hes aware of that unintentionally shows a toxic trait in him. he seems to think that the only good players are those who play fast trickshot and all that which simply isnt true and most of his tips are more half truths if anything and cater to one specific playstyle which he classes as being good at the game when there are many playstyles in which people are good at the game for not playing that way. for instance i tend to play far slower than most players because i dont ever feel like i am faced with anyone my skill level that is worthy of competing or a competition so i never put the full effort in that i can pull off. im even used to small screens even as small and as old as those box tv screens which i play best at the smaller the screen is. just last week alone, i was playing cod on a big screen to get used to the bigger screen as i need to buy a new tv now (tv is fine but the controller was unresponsive and we dont have a spare for the tv ive used for like 10 years now) i turned my sensitivity from about 12 which is when im on a small screen to like 4 or 6 because the fov is wider and it felt too fast and blurry to keep a flow going while playing. it didnt take long even at a very low sensitivity to get multiple tdm and kill confirmed matches with 30 to 40 kills being used to it within a few days barely changing settings being on a new screen controller and not using my full potential of skill. this is the major difference. also sorry for the essay length i just needed to rant and get it off my chest cause people need to hear the reality of it and its something people dont speak up about.

Burntrap is mimic, afton has been dead since UCN. You can see parts of Burntrap and remnants of his suit still on Mimic. After the tales epilogues, Vanessa would’ve put the suit on him, then after SB, he took it off and now is just Mimic again.

⁠​⁠@@duckman9327you should watch ID’s fantasy’s video on it. The bit on mimic’s face doesn’t even look like burntrap and the ed blood on the suit could’ve just been from people he’s killed like Kelly. His endo chest is also completely different. Mimic also looks screwed up because in the most recent epilogue he gets springlocked in the Jester costume.

well, considering the yellow sword whit the princess quest arcade cabinet glitchtrap's pretty dead, so the mimic is probably a different entity, maybe afton was latching on the mimic using it as a puppet or host, then the princess whoever that was killed glitchtrap letting the mimic do it's own thing.

​@@DjDeadpig Here's the thing: You're wrong. Afton IS dead. This isn't the story of The Aftons anymore.

@@DjDeadpig Roxy has a different face then she did in base SB, does that make her a complete different character? No. Burntrap is the Mimic.

Afton might be dead, but his legacy lives on. He always comes back.

lmao

I call MXES Gigachad Rabbit, because...well, have you *seen* him? That jawline is on par with Ernest Khalimov himself.

@@HackRazor1012GigaRab

The Mimic can still see her, she just can't see it. The image she is seeing is a hallucination of a happy ending while she gets brutally murdered. The Mimic being able to copy things and preferably wearing costumes and the fact that its most likely still mimicking Gregory's voice while saying "I found somewhere to hide" implies that the mimic is now INSIDE of Cassie and is wearing her as a suit.

​@xx_kazenikura_xx6031 ew no why would you say that 😭

@@xx_kazenikura_xx6031 We'd probably be able to *hear* her feeling the pain of getting literally murdered if this was true, so I'm kinda throwing it away as a possibility

Another thing. What if Vanessa isn’t Vanny. What she was framed as the killer and the real Vanny is still out there. Cassie may have a connection to Vanny due to the mask.

@@rickyrackey7930 could be possible. I don’t think it’s cannon or anything but it’s a neat idea.

I have a feeling they might go that route. Security Breach is simply the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the games true lore.

@@rickyrackey7930 I don’t know if I’d describe it as the “tip”of the iceberg. Given just how much lore there already is. But we’re not even close to the bottom.

@@Johnny-Number-One What I meant to say is that SB’s Lore might seem simple at first in the base game. But with the novels, Ruin, and eventually Help Wanted 2, the lore is much more massive than we thought it was.

wow, i just compared the mask from HW and SB and SB-R and you're right, the mask from Security Breach with Vanessa wearing it is very different than Help Wanted, and the one from Ruin is the same as HW.. that can be a good point for theories!

i feel like Dj music man would’ve been scavenged for parts

Shhh, people are gonna dog pile you for criticizing ruin

It was not fun

@@marshlindsey2763 arguably the most entertaining game of the franchise

@@burgerkingfries4941 fun was literally the only thing security breach offered

probably because in og security breach its so bright and colourful, and the animatronics aren’t that scary, but in ruin, its all broken down and the animatronics are barely functional and have lost themselves, like how monty became a chihuahua and chica became a broken trash eating beast who only wants to devour. roxy didnt really change until she realises cassie isnt gregory.

@A59ri ...monty became a chihuahua...XD

@@acredb1110 i mean hes tiny and acts like a feral dog with rabies so

probs the feeling that you are not able to go back after turning up. Like, you can't go back to earlier sections after completing a task, you're always somewhere new, and even deeper and unsafe than before

@@A59riChica was basically braindead eclipse and roxy were the only ones who didn’t loose themselves

there are many videos and comments on this already and its already been concluded that this is freddy however steel wool decided to alter freddy in terms of the story for freddy to steer people back on track and to fit the storyline better. imo its a bit of a cop out because its not the 1st time within the 2 security breach games that steel wool decided to cop out on the story and retcon stuff to fit bqsically a new story they wanted to tell but its not exactly been an issue for then so far and theyve done well with the retcons so far so i mean they must no how to play it safe with that sort of stuff.

Yeah, I didnt know about the specific Mimic animatronic but it was pretty easy to figure he was a mimic, a faker, an impostor even.

@@guggelguggel7491 While it was obvious there were times that I questioned if it WAS gregory or not and got confused like with "Yeah, with MY help. I upgraded Helpi with a signal jammar. That rabbit thing won't bother you anymore." Gregory from the books atleast is extremely smart, so this line actual nearly made me question if it was the real gregory and we will being banboozed by steel wool into thinking it was the Mimic. Anyways yeah thats it.

@@Electrical010yea and when the voicelines got reused and didn’t fit with his tone

i really wish more people would. i have no issue with people liking bad things, but what irks me, and a lot of others, is when people try to act like their favorite thing is objectively good when it isnt, and refuse to listen to any criticism. you can like whatever you want, no shame. but if you try to argue an objectively bad story is good then im sorry, but you are objectively wrong lol.

the DMimic

Literally like Mammon from helluva boss, it's great whenever anyone does it

sometimes its the one thing that saves a bad game and makes it from a trash game to at least being acceptaed and neutral within the community and or fan base.

Couldn't agree more, that is the one thing about Ruin I really don't like. If you haven't read the books, you know NOTHING about the Mimic and his reveal is completely meaningless to you. It's very unfortunate

same can be said for henry in fnaf 6

I remember seeing someone mention this theory before, and I immediately adopted it into my own headcanon. After all, why would Gregory help Cassie out in the Mimic sequence only to abandon her at the elevator?

I believe this theory. I have also looked through the books, the base game, and Ruin to figure out if elevators work differently in the fnaf universe and found nothing so we can assume that the elevators work like they do in the real world. You can’t hack an elevator and if the power goes out, the elevator would stay in place and not go into freefall. The only way to drop the elevator would be from inside the pizzaplex, which means that Gregory could not have done it as he was outside the pizzaplex.

I have a feeling the next villain in DLC 2 will be Vanny.

William afton came from the books, so did Henry and Charlie Emily, and also baby (kinda) I’m gonna bet their lore will be explained more in future games, similar to what happened with afton

That's literally how the FNAF series has always been. If you played sister location without reading the books, you'd boot up the game and have no clue who "mr afton" is. If you played FNAF 3 without being involved with every aspect of FNAF theories and lore, you'd have no clue why springtrap had flesh and human teeth, what had happened at FF, anything else going on.
