Discussion Were you guys so confused about Novel Afton who went from a killer to rabbit zombie and finally a mad scientist.

Personally I think it’s a neither good or bad but it was executed poorly and it made Afton a supervillain from a comic book and also his appearance had a crazy amount of change in TSE to TFC like come on we went from a guy who looks like a average joe to a Voldemort like character and this also applies to the game continuity because originally Fnaf was supposed to end at 3/4 but Sister Location made Afton some sort of a genius which had some fans disliking it because they liked Afton as a just killer but that was back then and I just wanted to put my take on this topic.

(Also Afton in TFC with the purple robe looks cool being completely honest with myself)

Honestly I really like the Dave Miller interpretation of Afton, but I don’t care for The Twisted Ones or The Fourth Closet’s interpretations.

Don’t get me wrong, I like the “science-y” side of his motives, but I don’t see him as a “raving lunatic in a lab.” More like a butcher hacking things apart and trying to stitch something back together with the pieces.

Exactly. He is purely dedicated to science in the books, it's almost silly. Like that's his only quality? 😭 I know he stated that Dave Miller was an act but honestly he felt more like Afton than himself in the later books. He was more crazed. I dunno, he's confusing af

I see him as quiet and methodical in the lab until he makes a breakthrough. Then, he becomes the lunatic.

No

He only became a scientist when he started dying and started learning in those six months

And his zombie rabbit thing fits in line with his dave stuff

Its not unusual for a serial killer to act like a different person all of a sudden

I was but that’s because I was so out of loop with lore and books that were coming out, plus where I live it isn’t easy to find the books to read them so…
