The pets really seem to like you. Thanks for playing Petscop.

If Pyrocynical can’t do a sequel video, Nexpo will

I hear the Candace Newmaker story in every Petscop video, but it still makes me cry every time. The adults treated her so inhumanely.

@purplehaze2358 3 years ago

The words "Go ahead, die right now" coming from the mouth of one's supposed adoptive parents is such a sickening happening to think about.

I don't know why, but that "No controller input has been detected for a very long time. Family, neighbors, police, (or whoever,) KEEP GAME CONSOLE RUNNING" message sent chills down my spine.

It's like the game is saying to never turn it off, even if the player died..

i still find it crazy how someone had to either code or animate the gameplay like it was actually playable which is insane for the level of effort this series has

I love so much how smart of a character Paul is. He's a detective, unafraid of the eerie content within. He makes the immediate connection that Petscop is more than just lost media. It's meant FOR him. At first, shocked to see direct connections to him, but he quickly rationalizes what's going on. Paul is absolutely one of my favorite youtube ARG-style story characters

I love it when Ryan breaks tone of the usual calm, worried narrator by cursing and sounding just absolutely fed up with paranormal bullshit

holy shit, i know it's a small thing, but it's so clever that to catch care nlm he has to set the treadmill to -1, thus turning "he loves me not" into "he loves me", which simultaneously is technically a lie, because it isn't physically possible for something to have -1 petals. absolutely brillaint

So what you are saying is the real Petscop is the friends we made along the way. Heartwarming.

I loved it when Paul said “now I am become Petscop, destroyer of pets” and he rode off into the sunset

Nexpo doing what pyrocynical couldn’t

As a child, I used to have a very strange ideology that, as I went through time, there were versions of me trapped in moments in my past, feeling whatever I was feeling at that very moment. That's why I'd always avoid painful situations as a child, because I wouldn't want to stay in eternal torment forever just because I say fell off a cliff (I still did that) (and then I climbed back up it)
suffice it to say, the question at the very end was laughably answered by my childhood self, and isn't that the true irony of it all

@vivid7369 3 years ago

One thing you forgot to mention is that when the treadmill was set to -1 it meant that Care was loved, and that’s why in care’s description it said you lied in order to get her.

@hyperlyne8282 3 years ago

I love how despite being generally neutral, Nexpo still manages to slip in some personality like mentioning how Paul is "shitting around" or saying "they bombastically claim that a fucking windmill vanished."

@hannahfanning9585 3 years ago

I love the dialogue in petscop so much. "I just checked the recording, because I was recording." "I think there is something to see. I just, haven't seen it yet." Etc. It sounds so perfectly like how a little boy would explain something to his cousin unscripted. So fantastically written and acted.

@miked1670 2 years ago

It would be infinitely hilarious if they made a spoof video of the series, but if it was a speedrunner that found the game and they just 100% fc it in like 10 minutes

@sethcourtad8733 3 years ago

"You had to lie, but it might not always be a lie" The treadmill represents the number of flower petals. Normally you pull the petals off and it ends at "loves me not", so the lie was counting an extra petal that wasn't there(-1) saying "loves me".

Finally, we now have Petscop 2. Thanks, Pyro, for making us wait over almost 5 years for this.

I like how his video has no jump scares or loud noises yet the random pauses he leaves is more horrifying and unsettlingly then whatever jumpscare Ive experienced in the past
