So apparently not a single person has figured out FN4F's story correctly yet. The box at the end supposedly explains it, but Cawthon's threatening to keep it closed if people don't find all the clues and hints in the game first. I think he's just trying to motivate people to look harder, though.

I don't think so. The way he worded it, it made it seem like there were NO clues or hints spread out (hence him saying he didn't fill the game with random easter eggs this time), and that the box is pretty much the only thing in the game to have all the little hints this time around, and seeing what's inside will pretty much answer any questions about it. BUT, he's ALSO saying that he feels people NOT figuring out the story this time around is something of a special conclusion to the franchise, so he's decided not to open it, ever. At least, that's his explanation, and he seems to be sticking to it.

Naturally, this has caused the collective fanbase to flip their ****.

Um? Did we read the same article? >__>
"I released part 4, and somehow.... no one, not a single person, found the pieces. The story remains completely hidden. I guess most people assumed that I filled the game with random easter eggs this time. I didn't. What's in the box? It's the pieces put together."

Okay, I don't feel like having this delve into a random argument about FnaF (trust me, that's the last thing I'd want today to delve into), but I should probably try picking at that statement you quoted by saying nobody has found the pieces to the puzzle because they're all in the box, which can't be opened. Thus, Scott is concerned about all the important story details just being spoon-fed through the box being opened, and he seems worried if that would be the correct way to reveal the story. Does that mean he'll show small hints through the challenge mode and cheat menus instead? Possibly, but it's never gonna be revealed through the box, if that's something people expected.

Also, you called my bluff, I didn't really read the Kotaku article until just now, so I didn't know they linked his statement in there. My bad. In any case, it's not a threat, and he doesn't sound displeased with his fanbase over not figuring it out. He isn't going to open it if someone DOES figure it out. Or maybe he would, I dunno, but I really just comes across more as something he's simply not gonna do.

Dude...he's saying the pieces are together in the box. As in, presented coherently. They're still present in the game outside of the box, and no one has found them to try and put them together on their own. What we have access to is the pieces of the puzzle, what's in the box is the completed puzzle.

Sable...



Also I don't understand the fanbase (lol like that's nothing new) as everyone thought that easter eggs != hints. They're not. But I love me a good puzzle, so I think I might try to figure this out.
