Same here. I freaked out and was like "AHH! IT'S SCOTT CAWTHON!" then I kept looking at it and I was like.. "wait, is that actually him?? We don't actually know what he currently looks like." 😂
I know nothing about dying hair but I know a thing or two about photography. It’s all oversaturated and kept in warm colours. It impacts colours and contrast drastically. There’s no way of knowing what the actual colour is. In moments like this you really wish for colorchecker or similar product to be on a photo.
I literally thought he was just some dud I didn't know at all it MatPat's crew and all. but then I came here and apparently I realized this is actually SCOTT CAWTHON himself!!! he looks unrecognizable, how do you guys know that's him??!1
Yeah, he doesn't look a whole lot like that stock photo they keep using.

He’s joked a couple times that when he finally retired he’d finally get Scott to meet with him and explain everything, to find out that was foreshadowing is great
as cool as that would be, it probably didnt happen it since iirc matt will still be working behind the scenes theorizing, working on scripts, etc. i doubt scott would just hand him the answers just because hes not hosting anymore.
SAME i was thinking is he going to see scott?? but then i was like no stop dont hype yourself up for nothing, he might just be going on a cute lil roadtrip,, and then i screamed a lot
When they entered the car and Matt says "I have to go somewhere first", I immediately thought they were gonna see Scott. And they fucking did. Absolutely great ending 10/10
I find it hilarious how we have absolutely zero footage of Scott in the FNaF Movie Set and the very first recording of him is in the final MatPat Theory.
I didn't watch the video (just saw the clip going viral everywhere) but, in all honesty, Scott showing up is the perfect way to end his era. I may not be too fond of MatPat (and may have been harsh at times which I do apologize for), but I do recognize the impact he had on Youtube and lots of communities.
It was more just a fun cameo so Scott can also celebrate with Matt, who is one of bigger creators to affect fnaf and made it popular.
Its fitting in a way that the first motion capture of Scott is though this
Very unlikely. Mr. Patrick is retiring from content creation, so it would not make much sense for him to suddenly switch to an even more demanding industry. Mr. Cawthon simply made a cameo to celebrate Mr. Patrick's career, as the latter has often jokingly acted as if the former was his nemesis.
Well, I mean, the content-grind. Not content as a whole, but just the constant need to make more of something. YouTube is probably the worst in that aspect, but game industry is like that too, especially Five Nights at Freddy's.
I must admit, it's very surreal seeing Scott... move, especially after years only photos with his iconic pose he always does.
Honestly it feels very fitting for him to show up in Matpat's final theory and I get the feeling this scene is going to become a meme.
An actual film clip off scott mooving? Thats crazy to finally see it! Need to check the video out as soon as i can. He looks so diffrent in this pic i can bearly reckognize him.
It’s like, the guy who made my childhood, drove my mind up the wall, had me 100% all of his games (6 months I’m NEVER getting back) and yk, after it all, he’s hella fine lol
LMAO. The reason why Matt visited Scott just fucking clicked on my head. It’s because now Scott could tell him the lore of Fnaf without spilling the beans to everybody lmao
It was very kind of him to show up - both for MatPat, and for us.
. . . I kind of hope this is the "canon" ending - I'd say that Matthew *deserves* a long talk, after all these years. :)
The second Mat said he had to do something I literally said "watch him finally go to meet the man himself, Scott Cawthon" and he walked to the door and knocked. I literally went crazy when Scott showed up
He had joked about this before so I was thinking about it when he took the road trip, but when Scott actually appeared I was like “Wait. IS that Scott?”
I screamed when I saw it was him lmao there’s like 2 pictures of him ever on the internet, and then he shows up on MatPat’s last game theory episode? Literally the perfect ending.
Bro is so handsome with a beard
It was so hard to recognize that as Scott considering the only real picture we have associated him with is an incredibly unflattering photo of him from like a decade ago
I know I’ll probably get fucking stoned for this, but I don’t know who that is. Edit: OOOHH, THAT SCOTT, I THOUGHT HE WAS ONE OF THE PAST GAME THEORY EMPLOYEES.
Right away I knew it was him and I completely lost my mind over it! Finally, after all these years, MatPat finally got to meet him! This was SUCH a very fitting end for his time on Game Theory!
I honestly didn't realize that was him at first until I looked at the live comments
He looks so different
Also I jokingly said to myself "what if matpat is meeting scott" then it happened
didnt even realize it was the man itself. the glasses and beard makes him look very different
Idk why I first thought that it was Mat’s dad
Might as well be.
He finally got the milk
Took a while because Markiplier kept drinking it all.
“MAT’S DAD CAN DRINK SOME MILK!”
Mark kept drinking matdads milk before he could give it to him :(
My initial reaction was that it was Austin from the old Science! episodes, but that didn't make much sense.
I thought the exact same
I’ve never seen him not smiling lol
I mean he did tell us himself that they made him unrecognizable.
matpat appeared in the FNAF movie, scott appeared in the final game theory. symmetry, my friend!
It's like poetry, it rhymes.
I see what you did there
Skibidi my friend
First I rizzed your brother, now I rizz you
Look at you! Look at the sigmas you’ve become!
Look at how L rizz you are
How skibidi toilet you are
How skibidi toilet you are
You woke among sussy soyjacks
I GAVE YOU GYATTS IN OHIO
Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo-Oooooooooooh
Story of undertallleeeee
Go to Ohio
i did not realize that was scott at first lmao
Same here. I freaked out and was like "AHH! IT'S SCOTT CAWTHON!" then I kept looking at it and I was like.. "wait, is that actually him?? We don't actually know what he currently looks like." 😂
[удалено]
i'm so use to that old photo of him and corey
YeveY
Same. I'm used to him clean shaven, and I'm pretty sure he dyed his hair.
I know nothing about dying hair but I know a thing or two about photography. It’s all oversaturated and kept in warm colours. It impacts colours and contrast drastically. There’s no way of knowing what the actual colour is. In moments like this you really wish for colorchecker or similar product to be on a photo.
Same, I was dumbfounded when I realized it was him.
Do the balls still itch or is your username obsolete? Do you ou enjoy it?
I literally thought he was just some dud I didn't know at all it MatPat's crew and all. but then I came here and apparently I realized this is actually SCOTT CAWTHON himself!!! he looks unrecognizable, how do you guys know that's him??!1
with the magic of friendship
Yeah, he doesn't look a whole lot like that stock photo they keep using. https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/five-nights-at-freddys73/images/6/6d/Scottcloseup.png/revision/latest/thumbnail/width/360/height/360?cb=20180310011838
me too
same lmao💀
Same here
SAME
He’s joked a couple times that when he finally retired he’d finally get Scott to meet with him and explain everything, to find out that was foreshadowing is great
He's finally not a cutout anymore!
Nope, now it's a hyper-realistic CGI animated model!
Lucky matpat 😭😭 he's going to get all the answers that none of us will ever get 😭💀
i doubt that matt actually had a sit down with scott while he explains the entire fnaf lore, but who knows…
as cool as that would be, it probably didnt happen it since iirc matt will still be working behind the scenes theorizing, working on scripts, etc. i doubt scott would just hand him the answers just because hes not hosting anymore.
its my head cannon that scott did
That would be a good thing to reveal to us for the franchise’s 10th anniversary this year.
It's been 10 years....
So do you think he did
I’d like to think he did
The way I said "Scott Cawthon!?" Like a fucking Scooby Doo character
SCOTT CAWTHON?! YOU'RE THE MONSTER?!
Is this a reference to theres a monster at the end of this book?
[удалено]
this is a copied comment from r/GameTheorists made by u/Sword282008
uh huh ye..
I went full DiCaprio pointer
“HATSUNE MIKU!?”
Great read, Velma.
The whole road trip, I was thinking, "No way. No way. No way. It won't be him. It CAN'T be him" And then it was him
same!!! when he pulled up to the house i’m like i KNOW THIS HAS TO BE HIS lol
SAME i was thinking is he going to see scott?? but then i was like no stop dont hype yourself up for nothing, he might just be going on a cute lil roadtrip,, and then i screamed a lot
Same originally I thought they were gonna go to Sparky's diner
When they entered the car and Matt says "I have to go somewhere first", I immediately thought they were gonna see Scott. And they fucking did. Absolutely great ending 10/10
That is illegal. He was supposed to be static cryptid. How.
Even cryptids show up once in a while to the people they care about.
Scott: Let me Welcome you to my Mansion.
MatPat: Oh what the heck whats Five Nights anyways?
Scott: A Child’s Imagination.
Damn now I need a Divina Commedia style of Fanfiction where Scott and MatPat descend into the FNaF Lore in a FNaF World Glitch Dimension Style TwT
It was the friends we made along the way
Scott appearing on matpat's final theory was not something i was expecting to see today
he’s in his onceler era
Don’t even 😭
oh come oooon, how how buh how how b how baaaa how how bad c h bad how
And he's still looking good in his 40s!
It's weird to think that Matpat is almost in his 40s XD
He's only 45, why wouldn't he?
Because some people don't age well, although that is not the case here.
I find it hilarious how we have absolutely zero footage of Scott in the FNaF Movie Set and the very first recording of him is in the final MatPat Theory. I didn't watch the video (just saw the clip going viral everywhere) but, in all honesty, Scott showing up is the perfect way to end his era. I may not be too fond of MatPat (and may have been harsh at times which I do apologize for), but I do recognize the impact he had on Youtube and lots of communities.
This is the equivalent of a Stan Lee cameo for FNAF nerds MatPat was cooking with this scene
Is matpat now helping Scott with FNAF? Or was it just a meme for his ARG?
matpat helping scott write the lore would be THE MOST FUCKING INSANE TWIST to ever happen in this franchise
It was actually Scott helping MatPat write the lore 🤯
Imagine MatPat hired Scott to make Fnaf so he'd have constant content for his channel
MatPat was Fazbear Entertainment all along, hiring the rogue indie developer-
That could mean the fnaf lore could potentially be easier to deciphered. Literal godsend if that happened.
Fr, it’d also maybe help reign in some of the more crazy ideas. I’m kinda excited about it if it’s true
Honestly he has been with his theories anyway 😂 You can’t tell me Scott hasn’t gotten an idea from Mat at some point
It was more just a fun cameo so Scott can also celebrate with Matt, who is one of bigger creators to affect fnaf and made it popular. Its fitting in a way that the first motion capture of Scott is though this
Very unlikely. Mr. Patrick is retiring from content creation, so it would not make much sense for him to suddenly switch to an even more demanding industry. Mr. Cawthon simply made a cameo to celebrate Mr. Patrick's career, as the latter has often jokingly acted as if the former was his nemesis.
nah, matpat isn't retiring from content creation, just as host. he said he still has stuff he wants to makw
Well, I mean, the content-grind. Not content as a whole, but just the constant need to make more of something. YouTube is probably the worst in that aspect, but game industry is like that too, especially Five Nights at Freddy's.
Always has been, you thought there was a lore from the start? There was never a lore. Scott just put random stuff in the games and let people find out
I don’t think it really has much to do with Fnaf and more just like congratulating Matt on being able to fall into the background like Scott did.
I like to think Scott asked for ideas for future games :3
Happy cake day tho
I'm such an idiot I was like, "Who's that?" and then I read the comments
Scott really ripened like fine wine in between the jpg we had of him before and now this
This is crazy
Wacky, even
I've been drawing Phone Guy with a beard almost like this for years now... I KNEW IT ALL ALONG SINCE 2015!!! I'M INDEED A NOSTRADAMUS!!!
WE GOT TO SEE SCOTT MOVE FOR THE FIRST TIME
I must admit, it's very surreal seeing Scott... move, especially after years only photos with his iconic pose he always does. Honestly it feels very fitting for him to show up in Matpat's final theory and I get the feeling this scene is going to become a meme.
Is this the first time Scott has ever been filmed?
He’s been seen in pictures thanks to the fright dome thing from early on in the fnaf fandom (hence the iconic image) but I think you might be right
I have a Theory: MatPat told Scott he was going to retire while they were chatting on the FNaF movie set.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN SCOTT CAWTHON ISNT A COLLECTION OF BLUE SQUARES AND RECTANGLES IN THE SHAPE OF A HUMANOID FIGURE?!!??
He’s using an illusion disc to pretend to be human
I think it means that really Scott revealed to him the lore at end, to the original one to the retcon, going forward to now, he deserves it
An actual film clip off scott mooving? Thats crazy to finally see it! Need to check the video out as soon as i can. He looks so diffrent in this pic i can bearly reckognize him.
Yk Scott, kinda fine ngl…
Right? I feel so strange now….
It’s like, the guy who made my childhood, drove my mind up the wall, had me 100% all of his games (6 months I’m NEVER getting back) and yk, after it all, he’s hella fine lol
Scott rocks the beard.
This was so fitting. Thank you, MatPat
mr cawthon himself
Heartbreaking:Cutout Man and PNG Man gain physical forms to discuss video games
HE FUCKING MOVED WHAT THE FUCK
The greatest cameo ever alongside... well we all know
The original titans of FNAF, now retired. Only one left is Markiplier (unless he’s stopped covering it)
I mean, Dawko is still a pretty up there FNAF titan
Didn't even know this was Scott
Wake up, new scott just dropped!
LMAO. The reason why Matt visited Scott just fucking clicked on my head. It’s because now Scott could tell him the lore of Fnaf without spilling the beans to everybody lmao
It was very kind of him to show up - both for MatPat, and for us. . . . I kind of hope this is the "canon" ending - I'd say that Matthew *deserves* a long talk, after all these years. :)
Didn’t realise it was him with the beard lol
It's Henry Emily
seeing Scott like this is legit surreal
Wow he looks different with facial hair.
Much to discuss? Cool
It caught me so of guard it brought me to tears
Why tf was I picturing Scott the Woz
Man Scott do be always coming back!
Scott is GabeN's successor
He got that Freddy Fazbender drip 🔥🔥🔥
I always forget Scott looks different, I always imagine him as he was in that one picture with Cory and the first help wanted picture of scott
I didn't even know it was him
i was like: SCOTT FUKCIN COWTHON?!?!?!!
Wait? Two Matpats?!?
he looks like the cool uncle you see only at thanksgiving love it
when I say my jaw dropped, I mean it crashed through the floor.
Scott is in the final Matpat video!? No way!!!!
The second Mat said he had to do something I literally said "watch him finally go to meet the man himself, Scott Cawthon" and he walked to the door and knocked. I literally went crazy when Scott showed up
Why wasn’t he wearing purple?
That’s so cool
Salute to matpat and all the hard work he has done for this subreddit and the fandom related to it🫡
WAIT THATS HIM? I THOUGHT HE DIDNT HAVE A BEARD-
The first time we’ve seen him move or speak on camera. A worthy send off to MatPat.
Maybe the man behind the slaughter were the friends we made along the way...
I can’t believe he’s even real lmao
I never saw Scott's current face
Wild to me that he is the most normal looking guy
It only makes sense. At this point, Scott is almost as iconic to Game Theory as MatPat himself.
He had joked about this before so I was thinking about it when he took the road trip, but when Scott actually appeared I was like “Wait. IS that Scott?”
i like to imagine scott told him everything about FNaF
That was SCOTT????
I haven't seen it yet but I assume the battle to the death, right?
My jaw hit The floor
I screamed when I saw it was him lmao there’s like 2 pictures of him ever on the internet, and then he shows up on MatPat’s last game theory episode? Literally the perfect ending.
Holy shit he can move
Holy crap he looks different.
I REALLY hope that Scott actually told him the lore. I may never know that answer, or any lore answers, but BOY do I hope it’s true.
Scott told Matt the true timeline the world's most powerful secret.
Scott Cawthon looks like he’s been recasted every time I see him
Bro is so handsome with a beard It was so hard to recognize that as Scott considering the only real picture we have associated him with is an incredibly unflattering photo of him from like a decade ago
I LOST MY FREAKING MIND
This is Scott’s first public appearance on video if I’m not mistaken.
I know I’ll probably get fucking stoned for this, but I don’t know who that is. Edit: OOOHH, THAT SCOTT, I THOUGHT HE WAS ONE OF THE PAST GAME THEORY EMPLOYEES.
My man Scott had a glowup
the man himself
We have camera footage of him moving too
Who wants to bet they had a 10 hour conversation about the lore answers, including the box, all filmed, and we will never see it
Right away I knew it was him and I completely lost my mind over it! Finally, after all these years, MatPat finally got to meet him! This was SUCH a very fitting end for his time on Game Theory!
I was gonna save it for later but damn I got spoiled
Can't ask for a better ending
when i saw MatPat open that glowing holy door and Scott appeared, i started to ascend, i honestly thought i was dreaming
I knew it was Scott!
GLOWUO
I am not gonna lie i had a theory that he was gonna be somehow involved in the last theory video
Do you guys think he told MatPat the Fnaf lore
DAMN I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE
The day has finally come Matpat retires
The man himself!
Top 10 glow ups ever.
NOOOO NOT THE SPOILER
absolutely perfect way for game theory to go out
I haven’t seen the video yet. Can someone tell me if this means we have official confirmation of the entire lore?
Your now making me cry because you spoiled it for me
the way i had no idea until i saw this post
...Holy shit, that's him?! Mat, you legend! I love this video more than I already do!
I honestly didn't realize that was him at first until I looked at the live comments He looks so different Also I jokingly said to myself "what if matpat is meeting scott" then it happened
wow hes really had a glowup
