What a career, FNaF transformed the indie world and (as much as some people will try to deny it) had massive effect on gaming as a whole. I know the series isn't dead but this really is the end of an era. The reason why I got so invested with this series years ago was because Scott's unique brand of creativity resonated with me and has definitely helped shape my tastes. I'm sure the series will be in good hands but it really won't be the same.
Thank you for the 7 years, Scott. Hopefully, I can get this out without getting completely upset.
But funny story, when FNaF just started to get big with Markiplier playing it my mom saw the video in her feed. She decided to watch it found it not her cup of tea to say. I think it was more of watching a more active let's player that turned her off.
Over time as I became more obsessed with it she was pretty much, "you're still following that?". But over time she just knew that hey I liked it and respected that. Soon enough I told her stories about how YOU donated to St. Judes, WWF, and various charities that Dawko did streams for. And she honestly started to see why I was following it besides it being a neat horror game.
The day you posted about subbing to Skylar she came to help too by subbing as well. She was devastated just like all of us were when I told her he passed.
She was the one that encouraged me to love horror. "And traumatize me" ;3.
I wish she was here so that I could tell her and I could've given you her well wishes. But alas I cannot.
And thank you, Scott. Thank you for the series that got me back into horror, to actually get out of my shell to say, and I hope you have a relaxing retirement.

This man has literally shaped my life. If it weren’t for him I wouldn’t even be on this site.
Thank you, Scott, for giving me and others lots of joy in our lives.
