The Mimic

has anybody been keeping up with the Mimic?  I'm kind of confused but I've seen a few videos that seem interesting about it.  I saw this theory that the William is actually a mimic and it's not really William, but if that's true I feel like they're only adding the mimic because everyone hated William's return.  Idk how I feel about it, what about you guys?

I'm not sure about Mimic being a retcon to Burntrap, but it seems plausible! 

Fnaf really needed a new villain anyways, ol' Willy really deserves a break pffft.

he has nice pants

Btw, here's some of my mimic art (TW for minor gore/severed limbs in background)

ohhh love the art!!! im not exactly sure how forums work or how to reply but i posted this topic like RIGHT as the mimic was introduced.  I agree, we do need a new villain other than william but im not totally happy with the mimic.  Idk i feel like they could have come up with something cooler, and maybe a bit more supernatural?  I guess im just not happy with the psy-fi direction the games seem to be going in, but reguardless im still gonna enjoy fnaf lol

I personally like the Mimic, though if it didn't exist, I think Vanny or the Blob/Tangle could've been great replacemets for Afton. But again, one is Afton number 2 and the other's a mass of ghost kids (and cables), something we're super familiar with already: the kids want revenge on William. Mimic is quite a refresher, he is a robot not possessed by anything, it's just doing what it was made to do, to mimic. Except they showed him murder and yeah it kinda slipped
