FNAF Help Wanted 2 Unused Content & Out of Bounds Secrets | LOST BITS [TetraBitGaming]

Yo! So for the unused voicelines, it looks like it has been just speculation by the community whether it's attributed to Vanny or not and the text strings in the files only refer to it as a "Voice" and not explicitly "Vanny"! Though there is some STRONG evidence to support that notion with the graffiti left around the hub world seemingly being the work of Vanny, her being credited in the game for voicework despite not having any lines throughout the game as well as the "Bring him to me." line VERY likely being for Vanny telling Moon to bring her the Glitchtrap plush in the ending - unfortunately, we don't 100% KNOW FOR CERTAIN whether these truly were for Vanny or not. Apologies for assuming the speculation was fact, despite how likely it may be.

My guess about those Vanny voice lines was probably that they felt a lot of it was a little too hand-holding. Part of the fnaf community is making theories and trying to decipher puzzles, and having Vanny give instruction on everything would take away some of the satisfaction of figuring it out on your own

The Roxy first aid game might have been the original way that she gets 'upgraded' to her Ruined version, but they changed that to her just grabbing a mask at the end of her final makeover game.

I hope the devs explain why vanny was super cut down not only from this game but security breach as well

Kinda feel the removed Vanny dialog might have made things better, keeps things ominous with only visual hints. Depending on how things go moving forward they could be course correcting the character as Vanny can still be a separate character from Venessa if done right. But yeah, still think Steel Wool completely screwed-up with the character in Security Breach who had so much set up only to fumble horrifically.

It's so weird how Steel Wool handles arguably the two most interesting characters (Vanny and Monty) in the current FNAF timeline. Both of them are brimming with potential, story, and overall a bit of nuance we haven't seen in a while and YET both are shafted CONSTANTLY! From unused animations to dialogue to straight up cutting them out/lessening their screen times. It's as if Steel Wool has a weird grudge against the very characters THEY created.

Honestly, cutting the Vanny lines was a good call. The silent realization of the player when it comes to the mid-game twist hits a lot harder when it's discovered on your own. Having Vanny essentially spoil it for you before the reveal deflates things.

Man I love Vanny's iconic line "Motion Trigger: Breaker Room"

11:35 The "H" below the map is what I believe where the game teleports you during either jump scares or the static screen after a jump scare because I remember randomly seeing a letter "H" in the static after I got jump scares a couple times. At first I thought it was the first letter of a hidden code, but I don't know what it's actual purpose is

They gotta bring Monty back tbh, it ain’t the same without him

1 like = 1 Helpy hammer smack

It's really interesting to see how time and time again Vanny gets cut down to just bare bones. I'm not even sure what her role is in HW2 considering she was Vanessa, who's since been freed after SB. Regardless I'm hoping that whatever dlc gets added adds in some context and lore like the Curse of Dreadbear dlc did. Also off topic but the carnival themes are really interesting, even the first aid voice is labeled as "Carnival Nurse" and then there was that big funko wave with circus/carnival themed characters with really interesting designs. It's really getting my hopes up for a circus fnaf game

Why are the rabbits always the ones so underused in steel wool games…

I think they were right to remove that dialogue, it ruins the fun, removes the mystery, and is too heavy-handed, and I managed to figure out the puzzles eventually without guidance, which made me feel smart. FNAF is all about these difficult hidden secrets and I love it. The game is fun outside of these hidden story elements, so its not like you're missing out if you don't go digging for all of it

Would have been cool to know how Bonnie's voice sounds.

The fact the second ending has that full Vanny model makes me wonder if they were considering putting additional angles in that scene (perhaps for the future flat version). It would be interesting to have a reverse angle from Vanny’s perspective of squishing Glitchtrap, and possibly even seeing the player character. It’s also possible they just started with the full model from Security Breach and never chopped off the bottom half.

Dude I hate the fact that Monty isint in Help Wanted 2. It’s so stupid he could have been really scary if they pulled his strings the right way

i feel like vanny wasn’t even given proper… anything. she just randomly spawned in the game 😭 i really wish we could see more of what security breach was trying to give us (in the trailers and such) before hitting us with kids mode

7:03 honestly, if we got to repair Monty after he went on a rampage in his room, it would be SO COOL😢

I’m pretty sure Vanny was cut purely because she’s not a villain anymore. It would have been kinda backward to have her be shown as Gregory’s guardian then just turn around and make her the big bad bunny again
