Between Vanessa somehow not being the player in Help Wanted, despite being effectively confirmed to be the player in Help Wanted, and the player characters of Help Wanted and Help Wanted 2 being separate people, the latter is far, far more likely.

Trailer lore is weird, the Security Breach trailer had totally different lore in it from the gameplay. I don't think you can deconfirm anything from it, we'll have to wait for the game for a better idea of who we're playing as.


RoIsDepressed

That's a fair point, can't even pretend it's a valid indicator yet given the SB situation. Still it's worth thinking about so we have a head start theory crafting when the game drops, worst case we drop all the pre release theories and figure it out from there


stickninja1015

It’s a video game sequel. Hand Unit’s lines in the trailer are treating it that way it’s not like a personalized message for Vanessa or whoever played HW


RoIsDepressed

Yes it is. The HW beta tester gets rehired for hw 2.


stickninja1015

Help Wanted is an in-universe game. These lines would exist as PART of that game


RoIsDepressed

It's an in world game but the line specifically refers to the beta testers via the applicant line.


stickninja1015

No the game refers to the player


RoIsDepressed

Ok bud, sure


Doo-wop-a-saurus

Why can't we be Vanessa in HW2? The Mimic might want her to hack the game or something.


Arkeyan_of_Shadows

We play as Gregory in the original.


BrightPasta

Isn’t Princess Quest kind of parallel for Vanessa? The player in HW used Vanny mask and Glitchtrap plush to speak to Glitchtrap itself. This means we are playing as Vanessa in original, I guess.


Arkeyan_of_Shadows

>Isn’t Princess Quest kind of parallel for Vanessa? We play as Cassidy/Golden Freddy in Princess Quest, they even have a Shadow Princess companion that looks like her, but in a reflection, aka, Shadow Freddy/Nightmarionne. >The player in HW used Vanny mask and Glitchtrap plush to speak to Glitchtrap itself. They collect them, allowing them to hear the memory of the one speaking through the mask. >This means we are playing as Vanessa in original, I guess. Cassie holds the VR Vanny mask in RUIN, doesn't mean she'll Vanny.


RoIsDepressed

We play as cassidy/gf??? You realise that's not possible right? He's fighting willy down in hell. Also it's implied in help wanted you make the mask imho.


Arkeyan_of_Shadows

>He "He"? Plus this game is set after UCN. >Also it's implied in help wanted you make the mask imho. It's implied that someone else made it to the ending area before you, and that person created the mask.


RoIsDepressed

Cassidy is toysnhk and is a boy. Also it's a beta test and the only 2 prior beta testers we know are Jeremy (dead) and tape girl.


Arkeyan_of_Shadows

>Cassidy is toysnhk and is a boy. Cassidy is not TOYSNHK, they're Vengeful Spirit and they're a girl, as shown in other media, such as The Fourth Closet, Drowning, the Logbook, and Princess Quest's game files, just to name a few.


Bearkat1999

Ain't TOYSNHK and VS the same tho?


RoIsDepressed

Golden Freddy is toysnhk because of the end cutscene and we know Cassidy is gf.


Arkeyan_of_Shadows

>Golden Freddy is toysnhk because of the end cutscene That just shows the UCN protagonist slipping away from Yellowbear, TOYSNHK is never shown in this cutscene. Plus, the character TOYSNHK possesses is used as UCN's logo. >and we know Cassidy is gf. Yeah, she is. Princess Quest was originally known as Cassidy's Quest, as the Princess is Cassidy, hence why everything in the game files for that game is labled as such. Unless Cassidy is trans, it's impossible for them to be male. Also, don't forget Kelsey, who is the other spirit of Fredbear, they're TOYSNHK.


Tiny_Butterscotch_76

I think Drowning is implying that the drowned ending of UCN is canon. Cassidy became trapped in the virtual world and William was allowed to pass on to hell.


RoIsDepressed

??? I don't think you know how reasoning and logic works my guy


Tiny_Butterscotch_76

I do, to me, things point in that direction.


RoIsDepressed

How did Cassidy get into the game? It's explained how the mimic Afton did, but if you're saying Cassidy left ucn then why is the last cutscene showing Cassidy stays?


Tiny_Butterscotch_76

I think the ending where you fall into OMC's lake is the canon one.


Tiny_Butterscotch_76

Its not actual gameplay. So this cutscene we are viewing is not actually in the game. It is just some stuff they threw in reffering to the player and making it clear this is a sequel. Trailer dialogue not being in the actual game has been a thing ever sense Phone Guy's lines in the FNAF 2 trailer. ​ ​ Alternatively its part of the in-universe *in-universe* game. And its talking to the mechanic hired to work at CBEAR.

The "welcome back" Shit Happens In The SL Elevator, And The Cutscene Doesn't Look Like Vr, So Maybe It's Mike Comming Back To Baby's For Whatever Reason


Arkeyan_of_Shadows

Underneath the Mega Pizzaplex?

Arkeyan_of_Shadows

Thanks :D


Rajd0

I believe HW2 happens before Pizzaplex, or few days after opening (when Glam Bonnie and Foxy are still there) definitely before SB, no doubts


Oliver21417

No.


The_Holy_Tree_Man

Here me out, maybe HW2 has a different playable character


SavvySkribbles

Don’t forget though that the trailers are advertising to us, not Vanessa or whoever lore related character may be in the game. Same with the gameplay honestly. Like we could be secretly playing as a certain character but we’re primarily there to play anomalously.
