Talk:Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach

Plot

Plot Reception

'It received praise for its graphics, the 'free-roam' gameplay not seen before in the franchise, the plot, and its horror elements.'

Security Breach being praised for it's plot couldn't be further from the truth. Not only does the game have tons of plot holes and several different endings that all make no sense, but there is so much cut content from the trailers that they likely cobbled the game's lore together last minute. Security Breach brought back William Afton who had died twice already in previous games, for 5 minutes, only to die in a fire (again).

Here's some threads of people discussing the non-existent story.

Example 1: https://www.reddit.com/r/fivenightsatfreddys/comments/rkjx55/so_what_are_the_plot_holes_everybody_is_talking/

Example 2: https://www.reddit.com/r/fivenightsatfreddys/comments/rkxgoe/so_in_sbs_trailers_theres_a_lot_of_unusedscrapped/

You can look at tons of Youtube videos and Reddit threads of people trashing the game's story, because it makes zero sense. Locations built on locations, characters like Vanny from Help Wanted was rewritten entirely, and fan favourites were brought back despite making no sense canonically. I know the average Wikipedia user probably doesn't understand most of this, but the "plot praises" should either be fleshed out or removed entirely. I get the feeling someone threw that in there to fill up the reception description without knowing much about it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.2.32.214 (talk) 01:20, 23 December 2021 (UTC)

Sundrop and Moondrop are the names of beverages themed after the sun/moon character. Madzyzzy (talk) 11:54, 31 July 2023 (UTC)

Add a "Such as..." section in the "Critical reception" paragraph.

Such as... S.T.A.F.F. Bots being a lower framerate then other animatronics. Being able the beat the game in 1 minute, even though its intended to be much longer. Daycare Attendant being able to follow you. And much, much more. OverAWallOfMetaKnight (talk) 01:13, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

I believe UCN is a spinoff rather than a core entry, the same way FNAF World is a spinoff. Couruu (talk) 12:57, 28 April 2023 (UTC)

Brazil ending?

started editing the ending section of Ruin to change secret ending to brazil ending but I couldn't find an actual reputable source that this is in the game files. seems like it could be a rumor gone wild but does anyone have a good source that it's called brazil ending in the game files?

• Well written: Yes, I had relatively few copyedits I picked up myself in a close reading of the article. I think the plot summary can seem to kind of throw out a lot of information, but this is sort of the fault of the game.
• MOS Rules with lead, layout, w2w, etc: Yes, plot and lead seem to be within guidelines to me. No references in the lead. Plot is appropriate per WP:PLOT and compared to other FNAF GAs.
• Broad coverage: This article goes above and beyond what I'd have predicted someone would be able to write about for the 9th game in the series.
• NPOV: The critiques section seems fair to me, it balances some positive and negative reviews and gives an overall impression of what critics thought. I wish there were more ratings in the review box.
  • I nearly had to write this Reception section with only three reviews, this isn't really something in my control. I think after FNAF 4 critics stopped extensively covering this series.
• Stable: Yes
• Illustration: In line with other FNAF articles, and the non-free use rationale is correct.
• References: Lets dig in...
  • Found a citation to Reddit, I can't find a secondary source to support this, though it does come from Scott himself. Willing to hear back from you on this and hear an argument either way for its inclusion.
    • If I where taking this any further than GA, then I would most definitely replace it, but I think for GA since its from Scott himself it should be fine, though I do admit it's pretty borderline and I didn't add the source.
  • Source spot checks. I checked against WP:VG/RS and also tried to see if there was any copyvio, didn't see any on a quick look:
    • Metacritic article: Matches article content.
    • Escapist article: quotes used for "most of the budget"... but this is phrased differently in the article. Quote or reword.
    • PlayStation Blog: Matches article content.
    • Kotaku article: Matches article content.

This is very likely a pass pending the couple of questions I had. In general just read over the plot summary again and try to tighten up any prose you can, I can see people saying it's long, but in my opinion it's fine.

Thank you for taking a look at this, I've answered the above questions. As for the plot, WP:VG/PLOT advises keeping a plot summary for games under 700 words, and 300 words for DLC. While Ruin goes over 300 (though no way to work around it), the main game plot is contained to only 552. Honestly I'm surprised I managed to contain the plot as it is from what it used to be. λ NegativeMP1 17:42, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

Noted everything, changed the quotation bit myself. Nice job on this one. ForksForks (talk) 17:59, 19 January 2024 (UTC)

All Endings

We need to add all the endings in this game, such as the one where Gregory gets attacked by Vanny if he leaves the PizzaPlex. 2603:6010:8B00:44FF:F1F7:F321:16D2:2A92 (talk) 02:29, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Listing all of the endings is not necessary to understand the games plot, hence why only two are listed. WP:VG/PLOT advises limiting plot sections to only the most necessary material without becoming trivial. λ NegativeMP1 06:06, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
