* This only really applies if you suscribe to the "''Nightmare Animatronics are RealAfterAll and are the Twisted Ones''" theory, but subverts the "Big Brother is Michael" theory. As noted on the WMG, despite the theory's popularity, when we see Michael, he more closely resembles the child in the fourth game than he does the older brother (Michael has brown hair instead of black, a lighter skin tone and slimmer frame). Now the "''Nightmare Animatronics are real''" theory has Afton tormenting seemingly his own son with the Twisted Ones while monitoring him. What does this mean when we take it into account? Further credence to "''All the players are Michael''", but may also possibly make the kid a bigger woobie than we previously thought. If especially if you buy into William corrupting his own daughter, what better person to have as your lobotomized lapdog than your own traumatized son?

* If you suscribe to the "All the night gaurds are Michael Afton" theory, there is one issue that seems to get in the way; his mere appearance. How does on go from location to location, applying under a different alias each time, and no one raises any suspicion over a ''walking decayed corpse'' applying for a job? This becomes especially questionable if you take Jeremy and Fritz into account, and how Michael applied to the same job, at the same location, on the same week, under two different identies, all the while being an obvious revenant whose appearance caused his neighbors to hide from him. If that wasn't convoluted enough, we are supposed to believe he has been doing this for ''years'' and no one's the wiser.

** There's another possibility. The guards get paid close to minimum wage for the relevant year, which initially just seems like BlackComedy — all this danger and you ''still'' only get minimum wage? However, in many places in the US, it's legal to pay a disabled person ''less'' than the minimum wage. Michael is a rotting corpse. He doesn't smell too good, and he may have movement problems at this point. It would be very easy for him to fake being a disabled person who has hygeine and mobility issues, and then say that he's covering his face due to scars from whatever "disabled" him. He's taking the guard jobs because he can't get any other jobs due to his disability, and it's likely that Fazbear Entertainment would be struggling to find people willing to work for them, so it's in everyone's "best interests" to rush the interview process.

** Also, why does the enrollment tape (and the FNAF Fanverse logo) use [[UncannyValley Withered]] [[BodyHorror Freddy]] rather than the less creepy Freddy from the first game? Chronologically, Withered Freddy was the first Freddy Fazbear. Withered Freddy even looks cleaner and not nearly as broken as he did in ''2''.

* The animatronics in this game that aren't the salvageable ones are relatively tame looking (save for [[UncannyValley Music Man]]) in regards to the retro-creepy animatronics of the first game or the ultra shiny ones of the second or even the fourth game. This ends up making sense as these are the only animatronics that presumably William had no hand in making, so they are straight entertainment machines rather than having a devious purpose that Afton barely bothers hiding under intentionally cute but unnerving-looking suits.
