As I played No Man's Sky... It HIT Me.

My third eye is opened and I have reached a stage of enlightenment that's leaving me GIDDY. Holy fuckin shit.

Danny own SPACE GAMES~☆🎇✨️🌠

"Yeah, obviously?" you say, a little confused.

But stop an THINK about it. He can go INTO games! Doomed is a glitchy, limited, online mmo. Not some single player triple A. There are Space Simulators.

Sandbox games where you explore the galaxy.

Literally NOTHING stopping HIM from becoming a game developer. Hiring tech ghosts. Alien ghosts. Alien TECH ghosts. And producing an underground hit.

Sitting in the virtual, on an alien planet, in his space suit and just... listening to the wind. The pattern of toxic rain against the habitat.

The sense of PEACE he must feel? Just turn on creative mode or pick a peaceful sandbox game and just? Get to work. Terraform a planet. Built a settlement. Farm in a habitat on Mars. Slip into some VR game and just? Hang out on the orbital space station.

I can't even put it into words? How emotional I am kinda getting? Just imagining him step through a screen and onto alien grass. Just a big old peaceful field of alien flora, beneath an alien sky. No responsibilities. Just Space.

Getting to explore the cosmos and still come home. Not having to choose between Amity and the stars. Making some little habitat with knickknacks and a bunk, that he can just go hang out in. Listen to the sounds of an alien world. Sleep in a far off galaxy and be home for breakfast.

God he would GLOW. His joy would overflow.

The only thing I'd honestly worry about is his Obsession and the Fenton Family Fixation Tendency kicking in. Getting addicted to serene, seretonin-producing Fantasy, over stressful, anxiety-producing Reality. It would be understandable. And something to look out for.

Because it wouldn't even be insidious or malicious action. Just the nature of "this one is calming and feels nice" vs "this one is stressful" would do it. Who WOULD want to leave? But... you gotta balance. Because you aren't just ghost. You can't just wrap yourself in Space like a safety blanket. No matter HOW soothing and awesome it is.

But good God is he gonna have SO much practice for his eventual lair. Bet his virtual Bases are IMMACULATE.

Thomas, Engineer

Part 1

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Watching Tranquility Base drift away as the Noah launched on its maiden voyage from Earth’s moon left Thomas Hibbs with an odd feeling of deja vu. He’d worked on dozens of ships, but always in the engineering decks where the only windows were peering into the mechanical arrays. Peering out into the void of space was…actually pretty damn cool in Thomas’s opinion.

I wonder if this thing has a VR Grid, he thought.

In the 50 years since humanity had joined the GAIL, it hadn’t been all space hoppers and life saving medical breakthroughs, the entertainment industry had made huge jumps in realism and simulated realities. One species in particular, the machine people known as the Padrino, had such a realistic virtual reality environment code that practically every other species in the assembly paid top dollar for a copy of it. Thought most used it for information storage and practical exploits, Humans were the first to turn it into a hyper advanced game simulation. The Padrino weren’t exactly pleased to learn the code they used to store their memories and experiences was being used to fight monsters with supernatural powers at weekend game tournaments on Earth, but they didn’t complain that much. Thomas had the idea to upload a compatible version of an old game called PAC-MAN where you’re your own avatar running the mazes into the ships computers. He couldn’t wait to get that high score again.

The engineering deck was right below the science labs, and Thomas saw one of the 3 other humans on board with him. He thought her name was Liz or something, but didn’t stop to say hi. She looked preoccupied with something, and talking to people was hard. Machines were good listeners. Thomas could talk for hours to machines while he worked, even if they weren’t the kind that could talk back, thought this ship did have those. Maybe here he could meet some people who get him.

The engineering deck was all catwalks and overhead piping, service lights and ventilation ducts. Computer terminals threw blue light against the opposite wall as Thomas made his way to the Engineer ‘locker’ room. Thomas figured that’s what it was, given the cubbies for the crew’s personal items and racks and shelves of tools and equipment for the ‘fixers’ to use.

There were about two dozen people moving around the room, none of them human, several of which were non biological as well. 2 Padrino were there, speaking their machine language while they sorted tools across a long workbench against the far wall. There were several other species as well that Thomas didn’t recognize, lots of different shapes and sizes. He felt a little insecure, being just the basic human he was.

Thomas found his name on the cubby wall and stuff his own tool bag in there, as well as a change of clothes and safety gear. Then he very carefully hid a hand held game pad under his spare jumpsuit, for emergencies. He’d been stuck in an air duct once before for hours twiddling his thumbs. Never again.

Just as he finished stuffing away his gear, something small bumped against his boot. He looked down, and saw a small robot waiting patiently for him to lift his foot. Apparently he’d been trailing confetti from the launch ceremony around the ship the whole time because these droids weren’t supposed to be down here in engineering. It had probably been following him since he’d walked in. The little guy had a cylinder torso, no real neck but his head looked like it turned in circles with two tiny exhaust pipes sticking out the top. Two ‘eyes’, or sensors with aesthetics, were all that made up the face. His little feet reminded Thomas of a chicken’s, and he had two little arms with tiny hands on each.

“Oh my god you’re so cute I love you,” Thomas half squealed as he picked the little robot up like a baby. “Have you been following me this whole time? Doing such a good job, keeping the ship clean. Did you get lost? Do you need help?”

The little machine just looked at him and wiggled its legs, probably the gyroscope trying to compensate for the sudden shift in balance.

One of the other engineers laughed.

“It’s just a service drone, it can’t actually understand you. It probably just followed your trail of waste and its sensors can’t get it back to the upper decks anymore.”

Thomas looked up from the tiny robot to see a fair number of his co workers looking at him, some trying to hide smiles, some not bothering being so polite. He felt his face begin to burn as a blush came to his cheeks and surged down his neck.

Oh my god I can’t believe I did that but it’s so freaking cute how can I not how can they not love it maybe there’s more on the ship this cute, his brain might implode at the rate it was going. The service drone continued to wiggle in his grip. To Thomas it was almost the size of a toy, maybe a solid 4 inches tall. It stopped squirming and looked up at his face, its tiny head whirring and clicking as gears shifted inside its chassis. It reached out one of its tiny hands and poked his thumb.

“Beep.”

“Beep.”

“Beep.”

Thomas’s mouth dropped. How could a machine with no higher functioning AI be this adorable?

“I’m gonna call you Roomba.”

“That’s just its service alarm. It’s processing an inability to perform its tasks so it thinks it’s stuck somewhere, ergo it’s alerting other drones to come assist it. It probably thinks you’re rectifying the obstacle.”

There were some snickers, a few openly laughed, but Thomas couldn’t care about them right now. The little droid was so adorable in Thomas’s eyes it was like looking at puppies.

He did, however, notice the 2 Padrino staring at him, motionless. For a moment he worried he’d maybe offended them by gushing over the little toy like robot. One of them approached. The Padrino had a clearly mechanical body with chrome plating encasing its joints and limbs. Its torso was thin but solid, whirring quietly as it walked over. Its head had a single antenna with a tinted face plate, which Thomas figured just was it’s ‘face’.

“It has been observed that Humans form an emotional bond to many different species and objects. Is this what is occurring, Human Thomas?”

Gauging the inflections of their voice was difficult, they didn’t have any kind of body language and the voice itself was entirely synthesized, adding layers of difficulty. Thomas thought for a moment, then just shrugged.

“I didn’t mean to cause a scene in here, I just got excited. It’s small and kinda cute so I just lost control for a moment.”

“Apologizing is unnecessary. We’d simply like to understand how Humans function to better improve the efficiency of this division.”

“Beep.”

The service drone wiggled in his hand again.

“It appears the small droid is out of range of its directive. It is asking for assistance with a new objective to replace its task queue.”

“Wait, you can understand it?”

“Yes, the alert sound is not a language. It’s sending out a very short range signal burst with information embedded in it, which I can receive with internal sensors. It’s AI is crude and simple, but it does have the basic functionality to form an artificial language. You’ve replaced its designation D7 with the name Roomba.”

Thomas looked from the Padrino to the little droid and back again.

“Does it like the name?”

“Beep.”

“It says it is a sufficient new designation and is awaiting a new task queue.”

“Oh good, I’m not good at naming stuff so I was worried-”

“Since the ship has launched, the service drones have gone inactive due to safety features. Since this one, new designation Roomba, was here on the engineering deck, it was outside the proximity of the ship’s AI core transmissions. It has exhausted its task queue and requests a new one.”

“Beep.”

“It is repeating the request.”

“Yeah, yes, got that, thank you. Okay, and I can just give it something to do?”

“That is correct.”

“Beep.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Roomba, can you hand me another bolt please?”

“Beep.”

[Primary task in the queue has not been completed: obtain high score]

“I know buddy, but you can pause it with that little button on the side there. I need that bolt real quick.”

Roomba looked where Thomas was pointing on the game pad. The pad itself was bigger than the drone, by a good half inch, so it was like Roomba was standing on a flat screen built into the floor, or playing one of those retro dance machine games from way back.

“Beep.”

[Acknowledged]

The Padrino had been kind enough to give Thomas’s ear piece translator an quick upgrade, so now he was able to receive Roomba’s signal burst data and understand what he was ‘saying’. They’d even given Roomba’s AI a little tune up so he could understand more complex tasks and ideas. Roomba had disconnected from the ship’s core code when he’d gone to the engineering deck so Thomas figured it’d be fine, the little guy could hang out with him now.

It took Roomba’s whole hand to get the game pad to register the pressed button and pause PAC-MAN, which was cute. And what was even cuter was the bolt Thomas needed was half the little robots size so it struggled just a little to bring it over the few feet to him.

“Good job buddy, thank you,” Thomas said, grinning.

“Beep.”

[Acknowledged. Returning to primary task]

“You do that. Good luck Roomba.”

At the time, the only thing the Padrino had asked for in return for their help and upgrades was the chance to observe biological lifeforms and their tendencies to ‘bond’ with others. The Padrino were a sort of hive mind it seemed, each unit being just an interface with the main AI back on their home planet. When units were out of range of communication with the home office, the main AI base code was copied into the machines and split off to collect information. When they got home, they dumped the data into the main computers and integrated back into the main AI core.

Thomas thought they were the coolest people he’d ever met. He’d said ‘sure, observe all you want, I just wanna thank you guys for your help.’

The game pad trilled, a little tune to congratulate moving up a level.

“Beep.”

[Update: progress has been made. Continuing primary task: obtain high score]

“Good work Roomba. You keep at it buddy, you’ll get there.”

From down the hall the 2 Padrino watched the strange little robot ‘playing video games’ next to the human doing an actually productive task.

“More data must be collected. The human, a deathworlder, has bonded to the drone.”

“We will continue to observe.”

“Agreed.”

Halo Reloaded - Spartan-II Training Schedule

I've wanted to flesh this out for while, but here we go. Note: this seems impossible... it's because it is.

General Information:

From Monday through Friday (except Wednesday), they start every morning with stretching, then they do 50 jumping jacks; after a quick breather, they do the following routine below.

100 total squats, push-ups, chin-ups, crunches and sit-ups. 50 of these every morning after the jumping jacks, then they do another 50 before bed.

Go to class, listen to a lecture on tactics used by the Spartans of Greece and the Roman Empire. This goes from 1000 to 1200 (Lunch Break), from 1300 to 1500 is recess at the obstacle-course where parkour and acrobatics are to be practiced, then class resumes from 1600 to 1800.

Night-Routine, then bed.

Monday:

After a one hour break from the morning routine, they go on a one kilometer run with small sand-bags tied to every Spartan-cadet's ankles. (A work-out routine inspired by Rocky Marciano.)

They practice swimming for an hour from 1900 to 2000 shortly after class.

Tuesday:

After a one hour break from the morning routine, they step into a VR-simulator that trains them to eject from drop-pods.

At 1900 to 2000, they spar with each other; two per circle (every pair gets an individual circle). The art is a martial-art native only to the Spartans called "Spartan-Kata"; it's heavily influenced by four martial-arts: Krav Maga, Collegiate Wrestling, Judo and Kali. One is armed with tonfas and is on the offensive, the other is unarmed and on the defensive; the unarmed opponent gets a turn to be on the offense while the armed opponent learns to be defensive. They switch offensive/defensive positions at 30 minutes into the sparring session.

Wednesday:

Break on both the morning and evenings. It's just lessons for the entire day. They don't even do the morning/night routines, they just wake up, recover, go to class and return to bed.

Thursday:

In the morning, they play a game of CTF in the Zero-Grav Chamber using laser-guns that respond to their Zero-Grav Suits' sensors. (It's just Ender's Game.)

In the evening, they learn to disassemble, clean and reassemble their guns (don't worry, they're not loaded) for the first 30 minutes; in the last 30 minutes, they go to the targeting range to practice their aim. From ages 8 - 11, they use laser-guns (similar ones seen in the Zero-Grav Chamer); they are taught fire-arm safety and how to properly use guns, then from ages 12 - 16, they're taught to practice with real-gunloaded with live-rounds.

Friday:

They do their usual morning and night routine, though they go to class for the first half of the day; after lunch, they don't go to recess. For the rest of the day onward, they do a group "survival-activity" that they must complete before the day is over. If any Spartan fails to complete the exercise and return to the training-facility, ONI personnel will personally collect them and return them back to base with the usual penalty for failure/coming-in-last being no dinner.

Saturday:

Rest & Recovery Day. No class or training, obstacle-course is always open.

Sunday:

Rest & Recovery Day. No class or training, obstacle-course is always open.

Meal-Time:

Breakfast: Lots of organic-eggs (either scrambled or over-easy, depends on what the cadet wants) and scalloped potatoes, a slice of ham with a side of plain-crackers. Drinks are a glass of water.

Lunch: Fried-Chicken and fish with brown rice and a side of mashed-potatoes slathered in gravy. Drinks are orange-juice.

Dinner: Turkey slathered with gravy and ice-cream covered in hot-fudge syrup. Drinks are a glass of milk.

Class-Snacks: Plain-Crackers with a glass of milk and a side of Vitamin-Gummy packs.

Additional Information:

Every night, the Spartans sleep to white-noise.

After getting themselves in bed, they are first treated with story-time as they fall asleep; Deja, the AI that teaches the Spartans in Halsey's absence, reads them stories from ancient Greece, namely the stories from Classical Mythology, but sometimes real events thay transpired then, too. Deja swaps over to white-noise once everyone has fallen asleep.

All of this was done from ages 8 to 16. In John's case, due to him being the youngest by two years, 6 to 14.

The Future of Market Research: Virtual Reality and Immersive Experiences 

Market research is an integral part of customer behavior and experience personalization strategies. It provides necessary insights into consumers' product preferences and market trends. Conventional techniques such as one-to-one surveys, focus groups, or secondary data collection have been standard in this field. However, technological enhancements have equipped modern market researchers with novel tools like virtual reality. This post will discuss the future of market research, including the potential of virtual reality and immersive experiences. 

What is Virtual Reality? 

Virtual reality (VR) simulates a computer-aided audiovisual environment. It can mimic reality or include experiences from a fantasy. Its adequate implementation will resolve many customer profiling issues and data quality limitations haunting professionals in market research consulting. Moreover, immersing users in a realistic simulation allows VR projects to provide more dynamic or nuanced insights into consumer behavior. 

What Are the Benefits of Virtual Reality in Market Research? 

1| Immersive Experience and Consumer Behavior 

One of VR's key advantages in market research is the ease of creating highly immersive experiences. Unlike traditional methods, VR can simulate a complete environment. That allows researchers to observe how consumers interact with products or services in a lifelike context. Besides, this immersion can lead to more accurate and authentic responses. After all, participants are less likely to be influenced by the artificiality of a traditional research setting. The required detailed, realistic simulation is often complex to accomplish with ordinary methods. 

2| Emotional and Behavioral Insights 

Another significant benefit of VR integration is its ability to interpret emotional responses. However, you require biometric sensors to track heart rate and eye movements. The acquired data will assist in measuring physiological responses to different stimuli within the virtual environment. This data on reactions can facilitate valuable insights into how consumers feel about a product. You can also check their positive or negative sentiments toward an advertisement or brand. 

How to Utilize VR in Market Research Based on Your Target Industry? 

According to market intelligence consulting experts, several industries already leverage VR for customer insights. The following use cases demonstrate the versatility and effectiveness of this technology. 

1| Retail and Consumer Goods 

Virtual reality software can help retailers try multiple store layouts to see how customer dwell time changes. Remember, product placements and marketing tactics affect how much customers buy before the final checkout. Therefore, companies like Walmart and IKEA have experimented with virtual stores. They also intend to gather consumer feedback before making costly and permanent changes to their physical store layouts in the real world. This precaution allows them to optimize their strategies based on data-driven insights rather than intuition or guesswork. 

2| Automotive Industry 

Automotive companies utilize VR systems to offer virtual car showrooms and deliver simulated test-driving experiences. This use case enhances the customer experience. Brands get this valuable data to investigate ever-changing consumer preferences and purchasing behaviors. Consider Audi and Ford. They have developed virtual test drives, allowing potential buyers to experience their vehicles. They can configure various scenarios for virtual driving sessions. Later, they might gather stakeholder feedback influencing future car designs, collision safety measures, handling methods, or fuel-efficiency parameters. 

3| Healthcare and Pharmaceuticals 

In healthcare, clinicians and universities will leverage VR to simulate medical environments for apprentices' training and evaluating new medical devices and treatments. Pharmaceutical companies employ VR to simulate clinical trials. Doing so allows medical professionals to examine patient reactions to new drugs. Although these trials are programmatic, they enable better forecasts for real-world healthcare outcomes. As a result, the stakeholders can accelerate research and enhance the accuracy of their findings. 

Challenges in VR Integration for Immersive Experiences and Market Research 

While VR's potential in market research is immense, several challenges and considerations might hinder the effective implementation of virtual reality experiences. 

1| Accessibility and Cost 

One of the top challenges to the widespread integration of VR is the cost of equipment and the availability of reliable talent. Business leaders need cost-effective tools and experienced VR-friendly market researchers to develop and maintain virtual environments. High-quality VR headsets and sensors can be expensive, and creating a realistic and engaging virtual environment requires significant software development and design investment. As the virtual reality industry matures and its tech tools become more affordable, these costs will likely decrease. So, VR integration for market studies will be more accessible to all organizations worldwide. 

2| Data Privacy and Ethics 

Corporations' use of VR in market research and hyper-personalization raises critical questions about data privacy and ethics. Biometric data, such as heart rate and eye movement, are highly sensitive data categories. Therefore, data processing entities must handle them with care. Companies must ensure that their data protection measures are effective. At the same time, participants must know how data recipients will utilize their data legally, ethically, and legitimately. Transparency and consent are crucial to maintaining trust and avoiding potential legal issues. 

3| Technical Limitations 

Despite significant advancements, VR technology still has limitations. Motion sickness, for example, can affect some users by limiting the duration of VR sessions. Additionally, the realism of virtual environments exhibits visual artifacts or rendering glitches because of current hardware and software limitations. As technology continues to improve, these obstacles will likely diminish. However, they might be a significant problem for enterprises with smaller budgets. 

The Future of Virtual Reality in Market Research 

The future of VR and immersive experiences in market research is promising, with several disruptive projects already making the headlines, as explored below. 

1| Enhanced Realism and Interactivity 

Continuous progress in AI technologies promises better realism and more engaging interactions. Advances in graphics, haptic feedback, and artificial intelligence will create more lifelike and engaging virtual environments. Their future releases will enhance the accuracy of consumer behavior studies and provide deeper insights into their preferences and motivations. 

2| Integration with Other Technologies 

Integrating VR with other emerging technologies will open up new possibilities for market research. Consider augmented reality (AR), artificial intelligence (AI), and live data streaming projects. For example, brands can use AI platforms to analyze the extensive databases from VR-powered market studies to identify unique patterns and crucial trends that may be undetectable in a standard analysis. AR can complement VR by overlaying digital information in the real world, creating a seamless blend of physical and virtual experiences. 

3| Broader Adoption Across Industries 

Affordable technologies indicate broader VR adoption in market research across various industries. The potential applications will benefit entertainment, tourism, education, and real estate. Companies that embrace VR early on will have a first-mover advantage because they will gain actionable insights into their customers before competitors. Consequently, they will successfully stay ahead of them in understanding market trends. 

4| Personalized Consumer Experiences 

VR will revolutionize market research and provide better approaches to studying consumer engagement metrics. Understandably, you want to personalize virtual experiences based on individual preferences and behaviors. This method helps create more meaningful and engaging interactions. For instance, a fashion retailer could offer virtual fitting rooms. Online customers would try on clothes and receive personalized recommendations based on submitted style and body type data. Similar customization options tell customers your business is committed to prioritizing satisfaction and brand loyalty. 

Conclusion 

Global brands want to incorporate virtual reality and immersive experiences into market research. These tech advancements help redefine the methods for understanding consumer behavior. VR addresses many of the limitations of traditional research methods by providing a more realistic, engaging, and data-rich environment. While challenges can be tricky to overcome, the strategic benefits attract brands. For deeper insights and more accurate data to inform business strategies, companies have invested in developing solutions to those problems. 

As technology advances, domain experts expect VR to become indispensable in the market research toolkit. Companies that invest in this technology earlier will be well-positioned to reap the rewards since they acquire a competitive edge essential to thrive in their industry. The future of market research is immersive, and your competitors have merely begun exploring the possibilities.

DISCLAIMER as of the making of this post Tiger Rock is the most recent tales book (thanks to leaks) and Security Breach RUIN has not released yet, so any lore reveals from Ruin or future Tales From the Pizzaplex books may invalidate some of this timeline or confirm it. We're piecing together an unfinished puzzle, so not everything is gonna be 100% accurate. I also have not read through Tales from the Pizzaplex myself. My knowledge comes from a fan wiki.

Hello everyone! I've spent the past few days working on a timeline that incorporates the tales from the pizzaplex books (up to Tiger Rock) into the game timeline! Now, some of these placements are just my best estimates or guesses. Some stories don't have a lot to go off of for a specific year or even range.

Before we get into this, I'm gonna explain a few things

The stuff in brackets is where the event is from. The message bags from Security Breach don't have brackets

Anything with a * by it is something I'm not 100% sure on. All placements in the timeline are based on what I could find on the wiki pages for the Tales stories and are based on dates and attractions plus some context clues.

Hello Gregory

Fnaf: Security Breach

Lally's Game (Lally's Game)

Now, a little elaboration.

From Fnaf 3-Bleeding Heart is all 2023, we know this because the pizzaplex opens in 2023 according to the Storyteller. (There's an error in the book stating 1983 was 30 years ago, but the wiki has this corrected to be 40 years ago, leaving us in 2023. The pizzaplex can't open any sooner as Help Wanted takes place during its construction, and fnaf 6 is located under the pizzaplex, meaning it has to be after the events of fnaf 6.) Bleeding Heart takes place at an unspecified Christmas at the Pizzaplex, and I feel it's most likely the end of year one as there isn't any sign of anything from the game.

The Mimic Epilogues all take place during the construction of the Pizzaplex, possibly alongside Fnaf VR Help Wanted. (Depending on if the Mimic1 program works as a huge hivemind, with Glitchtrap being able to split off from the body before the epilogues) During the epilogues the fnaf 6 Pizzeria is covered by cement due to the Mimic going rogue and ripping the construction workers apart after ripping apart and piling up the remains of the scrap animatronics and any other junk (possibly linked to The Blob?), only leaving one vent as a possible entrance. This explains why Vanny later needed Freddy to clear the path to get down there and possibly either repair the body with Bonnie's parts, put Glitchtrap in it to reunite him with his body, or both. Interestingly, the Glamrocks were originally delivered here, and the Mimic already had a new rabbit head. Could the new head be the original Bonnie's, and its old head be in the parts used to create Glitchtrap? Whatever the case, it's likely these abandoned original Glamrocks later became the endos guarding the fnaf 6 pizzeria in Security Breach.

GGY takes place 3 years after the Pizzaplex opens as a therapist who is mentioned in the story was hired when it opened, and it's been 3 years since she started. GGY has clear links to Patient 46 and the Retro CDs, meaning that they, and by extension, Fnaf AR have to take place over the first 3 years of the Pizzaplex being open, ending in 2025.

As odd as it is for Tiger Rock to take place after The Storyteller, it IS the case. Tiger Rock and Nexie both happen simultaneously, 3 weeks after the Storyteller. We know this as the Storyteller is being taken down during Tiger Rock and Nexie. The Storyteller take-over also causes these two stories to happen.

Fnaf VR Help Wanted and the Storyteller both have to take place before Fnaf AR as in the Fnaf AR emails it's mentioned that Fazbear Entertainment are calling off all contracts with outside companies, especially ones involving vintage parts after the Glitchtrap virus spreads through the Fazbear Funtime Service (fnaf AR) systems. (Mimic1 circuit boards and the Mimic1 program as a whole)

The message TORN PAPER is found outside of the Michael Afton room in the Utility Tunnels, I placed it after The Storyteller as in that room there is a wall code very similar in description to the one Edwin wrote in his final moments. It's possible (since according to cut fnaf ar emails Michael is alive) that Michael Afton replaced Edwin or Mr Burrows on the board and is now running things, and ordered the creation of that room so he could attempt to stop the Mimic. It's also possible he was already around and just stepped up afterwards. Either way, at the very least, the code was likely written in that room after the Storyteller. I believe "the key" is either referring to the Retro CDs, the code, or something in Freddy and Friends on Tour. After all, the cartoon is playing in the room.

Despite Bonnie being absent in even the earliest Tales From the Pizzaplex books according to the wiki, I placed his death close to Security Breach as there are no Tales attractions mentioned in the note MISSING, which tells us the route Bonnie took before his dissappearance. The Glamrock's upgrades all likely come after Bonnie's disappearance. I think the most likely possibility is that Monty REQUIRED an upgrade to play the bass, and then the other bots got upgrades afterwards, inspired by Monty, ending with Chica as hers was a catastrophic failure.

The Arcade Conspiracy likely takes place between Vanessa being hired and the All Staff Meeting, as the person writing the messages may be Luis Carbera from the Fnaf AR emails. Even without that connection, it has to be here as they're attempting to "free the princess," and she should supposedly recognise them.

At the very least, the Wind Up Music Man prototypes have to have broken out after Vanessa was hired as she's the one who wrote one of their messages. The same goes for the missing kids.

The final message about the missing kids mentions a re opening, meaning the Pizzaplex temporarily closed. I think it's most likely this happened between the Storyteller and GGY as we don't have much information about the second year the Pizzaplex was open.

The All Staff Meeting has a few hints towards something sinister going on, from a trashed room with a message from this set in it, to cake, mentioned in this set, bring in the endo basement and on a hidden endo. It's likely the employees were set up by Vanessa or Gregory to get disposed of by the Glamrock Endos. This has to be after any nighttime employees as they were all fired and potentially killed in this set of messages. The daytime staff remain.

The sinkhole messages set has to take place right before Security Breach, as the final message mentions plans to dig down underneath Roxy Raceway the next morning, which would uncover the old Pizzeria. Security Breach likely takes place the night after this message.

Cynthia Cao – Bachelor of Arts in Psychology

Cynthia (any/all pronouns) is a final year psychology student in the Faculty of Arts at the University of Alberta. In this interview, Cynthia reflects on their experiences with Community Service-Learning (CSL) and how it has shaped their academic journey and personal growth.

Can you tell us about your journey with CSL? How did it start, and where has it led you?

I started my CSL journey in my third year at the University of Alberta, during a childhood development psychology course (PSYCH 323). Through that course, I worked with the Richard Secord School’s Out of School Care. That experience introduced me to hands-on, community-based learning and has inspired me to seek out more courses with CSL components.

Since then, I’ve completed two additional CSL placements. One was with the Good Samaritan Society at their Wedman House and Village location, focusing on older adults for PSYCH 329 (Adult Development and Aging). My current placement is with Elixr Simulations, where I’m working on the marketing side of their Change Reality VR Education. Each of these experiences has been unique and valuable in its own way.

Did you initially seek out CSL courses, or did you discover the program by chance?

My first exposure to CSL was in my PSYCH 323 course where CSL was a mandatory component of the class and that experience made me more interested in CSL opportunities. Now, when I see a course with a CSL component, it definitely adds to its appeal.

What roles did you take on during your placements?

In my first placement at the Out of School Care program, I worked in a daycare-like setting, assisting children aged five to seven. My role was supervisory—helping the teachers ensure the kids were safe and engaged in activities. It was challenging, especially since I didn’t have the authority to discipline the children, but it was incredibly rewarding to build those connections and learn from the experience.

My second placement with the Good Samaritan Society focused on working with older adults, providing a completely different perspective. Currently, with Elixr Simulations, I’m working with Change Reality VR Education. This initiative uses virtual reality to address public safety issues, particularly creating awareness about the harassment of Indigenous women. My role is to help spread awareness of their cause and hopefully grab the attention of their demographic with our promotional material.

Which placement has been your favorite, and why?

My first placement with the children was the most memorable. It was the hardest because it involved a lot of learning and adapting, but that’s also what made it so rewarding. Working directly with the kids and overcoming challenges helped me grow and develop a deeper understanding of how to connect with others.

How has CSL impacted your academic journey and personal growth?

CSL has had a profound impact on both my academic and personal life. Academically, it showed me the value of applying what I learn in the classroom to real-world settings. Initially, I saw it as an added commitment, especially when placements required traveling to specific locations multiple times a week. However, the hands-on experience was worth it, and I now actively seek out similar opportunities.

On a personal level, CSL has improved my patience, communication, and ability to navigate different perspectives. For example, working with children who were unfamiliar with me taught me to adapt and remain calm in difficult situations. It also gave me insight into how I relate to others, including my family. Interacting with adults outside of a familial context allowed me to explore conversations and ideas in ways I hadn’t been able to before.

What lessons or knowledge did you gain from CSL?

CSL reinforced the importance of patience and understanding. In psychology, we often learn about working with people and adjusting to their needs, but it’s a different experience when you’re in the field. You learn how to meet people at their level and support them in ways that textbooks can’t teach.

Additionally, it exposed me to new opportunities and subjects I might not have explored otherwise. For example, courses with a CSL component often go deeper into their material, allowing for meaningful connections between theory and practice. This hands-on approach helped me discover what I enjoy and what aligns with my strengths.

Can you share more about your current placement with Elixir Simulations?

At Elixr Simulations, I’m part of a project that uses virtual reality to simulate real-life scenarios addressing public safety concerns. Specifically, the VR prototype explores how bystanders can intervene when witnessing harassment of Indigenous women. The project is set in local Edmonton locations like Churchill Station, and users can choose actions such as intervening, seeking help, or doing nothing. Each choice leads to different outcomes, highlighting the importance of active involvement.

This placement tied directly into my Modern Languages and Cultural Studies course on culture, gender, and race. We discussed these topics in depth, including concepts like intersectionality and systemic inequalities. Working on the VR project allowed me to see how these theories can be applied to real-world initiatives.

How has CSL influenced your career aspirations?

Before CSL, I was unsure about my direction in university. I switched programs twice; I used to be in nursing and then switched to sociology before settling on psychology. My placements helped validate my decision to study psychology and showed me that I want to work directly with people. These experiences gave me clarity about pursuing a career that involves personal, hands-on interactions.

What does receiving the CEWIL Student Equity Award mean to you?

Receiving the CEWIL award has been a huge motivator to continue pursuing community engagement. It’s opened my eyes to more opportunities, both at the university and beyond, and I hope to use it to further contribute to initiatives that align with my goals.

How would you sum up your experience with CSL in one sentence?

CSL is something everyone should try at least once. It’s an incredible opportunity to learn about yourself, explore new perspectives, and discover what you’re passionate about.

With support from the Co-operative Education and Work-Integrated Learning Canada (CEWIL Canada) and the Canadian federal government, CSL awards scholarships to equity-deserving students for their successful participation in an official CSL course.

Virtual Reality: The Future of Its Reality and the Security of Our Reality. 

(This a general blog to stimulate ideas about benefits and concerns regarding Virtual Reality) 

The question that has been circulating around virtual reality (VR) is, “What’s next?” VR technology has pushed the boundaries of what our technological capabilities can achieve, creating endless possibilities. In 2012, the creators of virtual reality put their ideas into motion with the Kickstarter campaign for Oculus Rift, which marked a turning point. Since its creation, many companies, including HTC, Google, Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Sony, and Samsung, have entered the race to develop their own VR headsets. This wave of innovation has led to what can be described as a technological renaissance, with everyone wanting to join in the excitement. 

What I’ve been wondering is, what more can these virtual reality devices offer us? 

An article I read highlighted contemporary trends shaping the future of virtual reality:  

Immersive Education: VR is being incorporated into education to provide risk-free, realistic scenarios that allow learners to develop tools and techniques in a controlled environment. For example, you can simulate surgeries or simulate taking off in a fighter jet.  

Blurring Reality and VR: Future VR environments might feel indistinguishable from the real world, creating an unprecedented level of immersion. An example would be watching a sporting event from the seat of your couch but as if you were in the stands at the game in real time.  

Artificial Intelligence Integration: The addition of AI to VR promises enhanced functionality, allowing users to achieve more through intelligent and adaptive systems. This can be exemplified through app development assistance to make better applications.  

Business Applications: VR is being integrated into business operations to transform areas such as training, collaboration, and customer engagement. An example of this could be demonstrated by enhancing longer meetings with interactive visuals of charts, plans, and business models.  

Clearly, VR is not slowing down any time soon, offering exciting opportunities to progress society. But as these technologies evolve, the question arises: Are we compromising our security in the process? 

 Privacy and Security in Virtual Reality 

 I pose this question because I had the opportunity to hear Nate Mitchell, one of the co-founders of Oculus, speak about his experiences with VR. He mentioned that Oculus prioritized user safety by avoiding the use of personal spatial metrics for training and improvement. Instead, the company employed individuals to simulate user interactions and create those metrics. 

 However, most of us don’t read the terms and conditions before clicking “accept.” We trust companies to have taken adequate measures to protect us, but VR devices introduce unique privacy concerns, particularly around biometric data such as iris or retina scans, fingerprints, face geometry, and voiceprints. In the wrong hands, this information could be extremely dangerous. 

Two major biometric concerns with VR devices include: 

Eye Tracking: Eye-tracking technology monitors where users are looking. This could inadvertently expose sensitive or confidential information without the user’s knowledge. 

Finger Tracking: By capturing hand movements, VR systems could compromise user inputs, such as passwords and PINs, leaving no room for security. 

A concern from the specs and metrics of the device itself 

Virtual Reality devices like Oculus or Quest function by using multiple wide-angle cameras and image analysis to identify landmarks within a room. It then determines the location and orientation of the headset based on the data gathered from those landmarks. Within the device, there are multiple OLED micro displays set behind the lenses to simulate the ability of binocular vision and render depth to an image. 

Risks for Younger Audiences 

 Another issue involves the target audience for VR devices, which is often younger individuals. A study conducted by the National Research Group found that 58% of VR device owners have children. It’s safe to assume that many of these children are using the devices, even if they were not originally purchased for them. 

 This poses a significant risk. Children’s lack of awareness can endanger the entire household, as they may unintentionally interact with malicious software or engage in risky online activities. Unsupervised VR usage creates an environment where harmful actors could take advantage of vulnerable users. 

Looking Ahead 

 Despite these concerns, VR holds immense potential. Whether it’s improving education, enhancing work performance, or delivering entertainment, the possibilities are endless. 

One particularly exciting idea is the introduction of immersive movies. This innovation would provide a completely new way to experience cinema, making the purchase of a VR headset worthwhile for both entertainment and productivity purposes. 

Conclusion 

 As VR technology continues to evolve, it’s essential to balance its benefits with its risks. By addressing privacy and security concerns, we can ensure that VR remains a safe and transformative tool for all users. Whether it’s for education, work, or entertainment, the future of VR is bright as long as we remain vigilant about protecting our reality.
