    ​​​​@@FSaLP24This doesn't make sense. For one, the orphan kids wouldn't help playtime co torture and test more orphan kids. The evidence I have for this is it clearly shows in the arg and tapes that every orphan kid hated the playtime employee. That's why in the hour of joy, they kill every employee that was in the building. For two, if the main character was an orphan, he/she would be looking for other orphans, not other employees that are good and not. My evidence for this is, it keeps getting repeated we want to find just the employees. Miss delight brought it up when Barb told us what he thought we were doing in the school. Poopy brought it up when she showed us the hour of joy. Lastly, it makes more sense for us to be an adult that got hired as one of the higher ups of playtime co, doing the test on the orphan kids, and having guilt for doing them. The evidence I have for this is in project playtime, we play as a higher up, talking to a bigger body that tells us we are why they exist. We know it can't be the doctor since around project playtime, he would be dead by probably the prototype. We know it's not Leith, since he's the one sending people to the factory to continue the bigger body initiative. We also know it's not any other higher up, since they would have probably died in the hour of joy, leaving just our main character, one of the few survivors of that event.

    I think the kids are still alive and that’s where poppy is taking us. She says “all of us” a few times and that must mean more than kissy, Ollie and herself. I imagine the main character felt bad for the children who were being horribly treated by playtime. I think he made the toys go mad to kill the evil scientists and workers but feels guilty as some workers and scientists weren’t evil but were also killed during the hour of joy. It is also possible he feels guilt for killing huggy as there was most likely a child inside of huggy and huggy only attacked bc he was starving and that’s why he saw huggy in his dream. Also maybe he feels like he should’ve died with the others and feels guilty for living while his friends and coworkers were killed.

    It is heavily implied that the protagonist is one of the executives. Poppy notes the protagonist did nothing wrong. She sees the hour of joy as sensless slaughter and the experiments as horrible. So the protagonist is not involved in either happening. Innovation was Doctor Harley and then Laith. Harley was gone prior to the hour of joy and laith took over. Laith is the one sending specialist in in project playtime so he survived the hour of joy. Playcare was stella and research was eddie. We do not know who the head of production was as their name is blocked out in many ways every time hey are noted. As poppy says the protagonist did nothing wrong then saying they are laith would not make sense. He was proud of his work much like the doctor harley was. They where the ones in charge of turning people into toys. People not children since thomas was turned into a toy after he had cancer as a employee. If innovation leads where the ones in charger of the "bigger bodies" project which was turning people into toys then one can assume production was literally just making real toys. Not monsters. Since monsters where handled by innovation and playcare. It would make sense that production knew nothing as was the ones making toys and commercials. The good face of the company. The prototype and catnap loved the kids. The other toys wanted to eat them. It would make sense that the prototype would show mercy to one whom only truly worked for the joy of the kids and knew nothing of the truth until the end. Last is that in project playtime which is after the hour of joy... laith has the players collect parts to rebuild a relic of the past. Relic?

    @@ahmedmongy5557 responding to you but in juncture with Hikarus comment, maybe Rich/Us were head of Production? We learn in a VHS that Stu is retiring and thinking of giving his job to Rich. We don’t know Stus job exactly, but from how shocked Rich sounded, i think it’s safe to say Stu was pretty high up within the company. We also have Poppy tell us that *we* did nothing wrong, that we were innocent/blind to the company’s true intentions. We also know that the BBI was a ‘need to know’ basis’s, so maybe Rich/us/stu/whoever was in charge of toy production (actual toys, not monsters) had no idea what was going on?

    I think the protagonist is definately Stella at this point. For sure. Her entire story has been unfolding before us in magnificent fashion in every single chapter, and probably for the purpose of it pointing to her as the protagonist. She was so utterly naïve and played blind into the hands of the scientists and lab workers for quite some time as evidence shows, helping test and select children, but unsure as to why she's doing this and to what end. What I think is, after she found out the horrible truth of what playtime has really been doing to the orphans, she agreed to help the prototype and other big bodied toys to break free through the hour of joy. She helped put it into motion, and she was supposed to be present the day of..but she never showed up. This also might be why the bigger bodies are hesitant to actually go through with straight up killing her, such as Cat Nap and the prototype. Always writing 'GO BACK.' 'GO HOME'. 'LEAVE.' Catnap doesn't try to kill us until we've ignored all warnings and went too far.. They still respect her for helping them as much as they did to set up the hour of joy, yet still angry she wasn't physically there for it. She feels immense guilt and horror for the pain she inadvertently put the orphans through, explaining the writing and the backwards audio.. She came back to now help in any way she can. She wants to be free of her guilt and finally face the truth.

    I think the protagonist could be an escaped bigger body, as they might have technically "worked" at Playco and thus be recognized by other toys. Ollie wouldn't group him with the kids though, so his comments about the kids living here makes sense. And he should have been at the hour of joy to help punish the employees, not to be punished. So now he doesn't deserve to be back. And basically what we have is a toy civil war as the utopia they cooked up without humans has basically turned into a worse sort of dictatorship. So this whole time the protagonist could be trying to save other toys and not the human employees.

    I think the toys don't care if we are guilty or innocent they just want the protagonist dead. One of my theories was what if the protagonist used to be an orphan in the orphanage in the past and then ended up working as a worker. But instead of working as a normal adult instead they were a superhuman test subject to make sure the poppy formula works because our protagonist can die and come back, get injured and live with some damage. It would be an interesting twist. Well whatever it is the Prototype wants us. Because why would Poppy say we were tortured?

    I think the main character is dealing with survivor guilt. I mean how would feel that one day you weren't at work and the next day all your co-workers end up dead. 10 years is long time trying to move on. I don't think main character knew the horrors that were taking place. But since the player was a Playtime worker, they deserve to die with everyone else. I think one of the doctors who did the experiments is alive and they got out somehow and they were the one who put the body at Ludwig estate that way it would take the heat off them and they would come back to finish the prototype themselves. And thanks to the main character getting rid of the prototype servants (Mommy long legs, Catnap, etc.) the doctors can.

Also does anyone else think it’s possible that maybe our protagonist was running from the police and ended up trying to hide out in the Playtime factory? We get a lot of imagery of the forest in our flashbacks and hallucinations. Plus not once through these dreams have we seen a car. So he was on foot most likely.

Cause how else would you rationalize a room that doesn't match anything else in the rest of the nightmare even Nightmare-Wuggy's room is different, and why would else would "Guilt Haunts You" show up in that room?

    I speculate the Protagonist most likely knew about the Hour of Joy was to happen and for some reasons was expected by some (the Prototype or the higher staff of the Playtime Co.) to be there, either to aid the staff or the toys, or to even be punished alongside the former for his/her employment at the Playtime Co. (like "you realize you were aiding them to commit horrible atrocities, help us take revenge, but you must pay for your crimes too"), but at some point fear took over and the Protagonist decided not to appear at the factory. I also theorize the Protagonist might be a humanlike toy created by the Playtime Co., that came out perfectly human to become the company's employee. Perhaps that's why the Protagonist was expected to be there during the Hour of Joy?

    Are we sure the protagonist is a he? He could really be Stella, the lady that was in charge of the orphanage. Also, I think a lot of the workers were former orphans that had to grow up and eventually work for Play Co. So, that would mean that former orphans were experimenting on the orphan children that were there in 1995.

    Protagonist is 100% the bad guy and returned to the factory to redeem themselves and their coworkers because of the guilt of missing The Hour of Joy. Poppy, Ollie, and Kissy are coworkers. Probably turned by the kids: the chatterbox doll, just a voice giving commands, and a weak, silent monster (mirroring what they did to the child they mangled into Huggy). The Prototype is the first kid to go. Not meant for a final product, that’s why it seems unfinished and needs to build itself. This kid was exposed to a lot of info and torture and lead kids to food, safety, power, and revenge … it saved them. Thats how it became God.

    I don't think he had anything related to what happened to Elliot Ludwig, however I think he had a massive role in the experiments done to the poor orphans in playtime. Co, helping in the creation of the bigger bodies program. And I think he didn't get fired, or went on vacation, I think he just quit, his guilt finally getting the better of him, and making him leave. And when he finally got that letter about his fellow playtime. Co employes being still alive, he wanted to fix his mistakes by helping his fellow employes and helping the poor children that were experimented on. And I do think the cardboard cut outs are directly talking to our character (atleast most of them). So yeah our character is definetely a bad person. I also wanted to just say that most of the employees were good people, as most of them had no idea of the horrible experimentations and shady stuff going behind the scenes in the place they were working in, as mentioned by Poppy herself.

  • @catst9927

    It could be survivor's guilt. I don't know if every single employee was in on the fact that there was experimentation. For example, the desk lady didn't understand what it meant when they put experimentation on the adoption paperwork. It meant that one employee didn't know it was going on. Clearly, the protagonist now knows what happened. But that doesn't necessarily mean he did know before the hour of joy.

    Catnap also had probably the most opportunities to kill us due to the fact that we caught him peeking in the room, dropping us down the disposal, ambushing us and throwing us into a room,even going as far as to say “Leave playcare or I’m coming for you”, and upon powering up the door and him proceeding to slowly walk towards us even though he’s presumably much faster than us. All these circumstances lead me to believe that we are the villains of the game not the victims. 3/3. Note: sorry if my grammar isn’t that good.

And why would huggy think were trying to experiment on the kids if they were ONLY in the orphanage? AND why would OLLIE help us as well? If we were the bad guys, why would kissy, poppy, and ollie help us?

    Here are my thoughts, but first I would like to mention I think you may be digging a bit too deep into the whole dream=he planted the body and was evil. CatNap's signature affect of the gas was inducing nightmares. While there is obvious guilt, the way the voices speak out and blame MC specifically is how nightmares tend to be. First up: MC was working for playtime up until right after the HoJ. The radio mentioning he was supposed to be there really tells it all. The way it's worded is that he was probably off that day for whatever reason and survivors guilt is eating away at them, not that he knew of the HoJ. -Planted Body = I personally don't believe MC planted the body, as we don't have a date of death for Elliot, nor do we really know if MC disliked him. I do believe however that Elliot died before the HoJ, seeing as the playCoTimeWhatever still existed. -pillage and destroy :)= This could be two ways. MC probably, more than likely, knew of the bigger body project. This line could either be about him destroying what's here now, or what he did/accepting while working there. -The body= I'd just like to add this here, the body missing organs and bones probably meant they were used for the bigger body. Lastly, or at least what I can remember, I don't believe the stands are anything more than filler horror pieces. They don't really mention anything that ever impacts lore, and the whole elephant theory is ignoring that the Elephant is synonymous with having an amazing memory (Which is why it mentions remembering 'you'). Them being speakers for the toys probably wouldn't work either, as we know all the smile critters are dead, yet they still have lines. (In my eyes, the MC is guilty of knowing/working on the Bigger Body, but not guilty of anything more. If he is innocent and didn't know, thats honestly just gonna be a plothole for me)

Also the protag knows how to manage everything making me think they worked in maintenance which is why all of the toys recognized them. I don't get why ppl are saying that the protag did know what happened and stayed home that day since they went to Playtime to find out what happened to their coworkers in the first place.

    I really do wonder what the relationship between tbe player and Huggy is. Cause a majority of the chapters (at least after 1) Huggy is the only one that left and impact or is technically haunting him. He even had a nightmare version of him in this dream and even had huggy standing there menacingly in his second nightmare. Mommy, Catnap, nor did miss delight show up except Huggy. (Well the prototype did but ya know.) Even in the beginning of chapter 1 when you first encounter Huggy, he doesn't immediately attack you. Hell he even gives you a key to persue the factory. It wasn't until the player started operating everything that caused huggy to feel suspicious and stalk him. Then when he made a toy, which is the reason these creatures are in this predicament, is when he saw you as a threat. I don't think Huggys dead since we didn't see a body or any other visual confirmation....so this'll be interesting

    The person who missed the meeting was the only person who offered the suffering toys a chance out. He didn’t show… so they mutinied- he was supposed to fight for their rights and freedoms- an end to the madness. That’s so sad. And it makes so much sense. The toys/kids were waiting on ‘Poppy’s Angel/the protagonist’ to save them. And he chickened outa Bs left them with no other option but to kill. And then when he didn’t ever return..: they became real monsters who are still hurt that their savior intentionally abandoned them. And the ONLY reason they don’t kill him on sight every time is because they assume the protagonist might actually still be good. So they give them an opportunity not to screw it up this time- by defeating them. And the only way he can redeem Himself is to kill the monsters he created by abandoning them in the first place. And the prototype is OUR (the players) creation. This… why it’s the last thing we have to kill. Also why Catnap was so ready to kill but not kill us. Loyalty to the kids, and more loyalty to the prototype.

    My theory is that when we were in the nightmare sequence with nightmare Huggy Wuggy, we were probably involved in making the bigger body of huggy wuggy and it haunts us for what we done to this orphan and we regret it for the rest of our life as the protagonist. Poppy referring the monsters that tortured us is most likely the scientists and not the monsters themselves but who knows, maybe thats the only experiment we were involved and we didn’t see other bodies being made like Mommy, Cat Nap, Boxy Boo, or Kissy. So we were fed up with all the madness that we went through and decided leave the factory before the Hour Of Joy started, then 10 years later you find a message from the workplace you hated all these years and decided to come back to hopefully find the people who tortured you and right some wrongs that happened in the factory.

In the last fight with CatNap, the room was totally filled with red gas and we couldn't use the mask anymore I also believe we're in a dream so we actually never killed CatNap Plus Poppy sounds very different after fighting with him Again, just like when we kill Mommy Long Legs Why she had the Hour of Joy tape? Why she says *_We call it_* if she hated what happened? Of course Poppy didn't do anything during the Hour of Joy, what she could do anyway? Kick their anckles? Doesn't mean she wasn't part of it Yeah, she said she was in the cage but, we can't trust what she says Do you think Kissy killed some employees and then turned good for Poppy? I think it's more like Kissy is obedient to Poppy I also believe Boxy was in Chapter 3 the whole time but he just never did anything There's plenty of big boxes everywhere
