Game Theory: FNAF 4 and the Bite of '87

Introduction

• Host: MatPat from Game Theory
• Topic: Analysis of FNAF 4's plot in relation to scientific facts
• Main Argument: The game's plot is scientifically impossible due to the effects of a frontal lobe injury

Premise of FNAF 4

• Game Setting: You play as the victim of the "Bite of '87" experiencing a nightmare or coma-induced hallucinations
• Evidence from Teasers:
  • Numbers "87" repeated in teasers
  • Questions "Was it me?" suggesting the attacker of the bite
  • Word "nightmare" repeatedly seen over teaser images
• Visual Cues:
  • Freddy Krueger-like design indicating a child's fearful imagination
  • Trailer shows number "4" moving to symbolize a bed, indicating a dream state

Game Release Evidence

• In-game Cues:
  • Items like flowers, IV, and pills suggest medical recovery
  • Foxy turning into a plush toy supports a dream/hallucination theory
  • Cut scene after Night 5 shows the Bite of '87 occurring

Scientific Analysis of Frontal Lobe Injury

Impact on Fear Response

• Historical Context:
  • 1940s-50s psychiatry involved removing brain parts to treat mental health issues
  • Example of Phineas Gage, who lost his frontal lobe and lost his fear response
• Scientific Findings:
  • Victims of frontal lobe injuries have impaired fear responses
  • They become uninhibited with no fear or anxiety

Impact on Concentration and Imagination

• Concentration Impairment:
  • Frontal lobe injuries affect the ability to concentrate and sustain attention
• Imagination and Dreams:
  • Cannot have nightmares; lack of fear response prevents fearful dreams
  • Historical cases show lobotomized patients dreaming of non-threatening scenarios

Conclusion

• Scientific Impossibility:
  • A victim of the Bite of '87 with a frontal lobe injury couldn't experience fear-driven nightmares
• Game's Logical Flaw:
  • The game cannot realistically depict a child with such an injury as its protagonist
