PETSCOP THREAD, MOTHERFUCKERS https://www.youtube.com/watch

I commend the amount of effort the guy is putting into this little lost PS1 game themed horror story. He's got the aesthetics down pat.

In regards to the whole Candace Newmaker theory, I realized that the "QUITTER'S ROOM" pretty much seals the deal on it being a reference to her. After one of the adults holding her down asked if she wanted to be born she said her final word, "no," which the adult responded to by saying "Quitter, quitter, quitter, quitter! Quit, quit, quit, quit. She's a quitter!"

I haven't seen anyone else point that out so I figured I'd put it out there

Where do you think this story is going?

Is this actually worth watching or is it fucking lame like most of these things

>>383962807
It's worth a watch.

So probably not getting anything new till later this year right?

>>383962807
very lame, especially when the author just straight out censors part of the screen in a lousy attempt to create mystery. he cant into proper narrative for a creepypasta.

I want to play a real Petscop game, fuck the lore and the creepypastas

>>383961605

It's pretty cool that he made an actual game for it, but it moves at a snails pace. Sometimes an entire episode happens with nothing going on.

I'm also not convinced that this is going to have a satisfying ending whatsoever, since it seems like that's the biggest flaw of things like this. At the very least he has not done "the haunted game knows who I am IRL and starts talking directly to me by name" thing.... yet.

>>383963028
You were all making the censoring out to be a lot worse than it turned out being. Sure it's not the best plot device he could have used, but I'd consider it fully redeemed if we actually end up seeing what it was and an explanation for why we didn't see it

Get the fuck out of here, you 12 year old piece of shit

Also, petscop 11 when

>>383961605
HELLO EVERYONE AND WELCOME TO GAME THEORY

>>383963234
Hopefully it doesn't but it feels like it does already or the 4th wall breaking is just making me feel like it

>>383962807
Eh, its ok.. Solid 5/10, some would say 6/10

Some guy remade the looks of a PS1 game on PC and is billing it as a game someone sent him or he found or something and it came with a note and he follows the instructions and then it looks like slenderman.

I was enjoying it until it went over the top with its 2spoops14me no lighting, brick building and black skybox.

Subtle like a hammer.

>>383961992
it will be more like an ARG than a typical 'haunted game creepypasta', where there is definitively no supernatural element and instead some mundane threat (cult or individual psycho). the long break its currently in is part of the story. when it comes back there will be reference to major events which have occurred 'IRL' for him and his friends - possibly the actual petscop channel will no longer update at all and we'll get something from another in-universe/in-game source.

>>383961605
>I recommend against joining the thread and discussion until you've enjoyed the videos yourself.
Fuck you buddy I do what I want.

>>383962807
Best one I've seen by far. What really makes it is the guy's acting. It was so good that I started to assume that the creator programmed the game and then gave it to the narrator to play, unaware of what would happen, or at least to some extent.

He's most likely just a smart actor

>>383964648
Its easily 9/10. Easily.

>>383961992
I hate NightMind being retarded and shutting down the Candace theory with the "there's no evidence" bullshit. It's obvious as fuck. There's multiple stories this thing is based on right now. There's the Daisy Head Dr. Seuss book, Candace Newmaker, and the windmill thing nobody can find connections to. NightMind's biggest piece of evidence was saying there's no references beyond a name, but the Child Library is obviously an orphanage which solidifies the Candace theory even more.

I'd be more excited if it hadn't been over a month since the last episode. Shit's taking forever, episode 11 better be long as hell.

It's literally nothing but 13 year olds sharing shitty theories and posting bad memes.

>>383967674
why are you describing this thread

>>383965704
Better than marble hornets and ben drowned already. The pacing is good too.

I'm only on the second, but I'm kind of liking this. This is what creepypasta should be. It requires actual effort. Anyone can write something about hyper-realistic blood and bullshit, but to make something that rather convincingly looks like some mysterious, unknown PS1 game like this is somewhat impressive.

I don't know, maybe in two years I'll look back and think 'fuck did I really think that wack crap was a cool thing?' like with Marble Hornets.

>>383968153
It gets even better, too

>>383968297
Yeah the episodes do keep getting a little better than the last as well

Neck urself kindly :^)

>>383967218
Wow, it's all shit.


>>383968153
Marble Hornet's first season was very well done and works well as a horror movie.
Don't get me wrong, Petscop has great production values. But it's not really that good. It's got some neat spooks, but I imagine that it'lll end up like NES Godzilla with a stupid finale.

>>383968564
I'm totally expecting the finale of Petscop to shit the bed completely.

>>383968564
>but I imagine that it'lll end up like NES Godzilla with a stupid finale.
Something about the format and his behavior makes me believe that there isn't going to be a big finale. I don't think everything's going to be neatly wrapped up, in fact I wouldn't be surprised if 10 was the final video

Seriously, there's no way I can imagine the narrator character really coping with something serious happening. It doesn't fit the format and his behavior. If he's smart I think he'll see that too

Watched a couple of the videos. The game from a design stand point is pretty interesting. Looks pretty good in capturing the PS1 game feeling except for the stable frame rate and still textures.

WHERE THE FUCK IS PETSCOP 11

>>383968564
Marble Hornets season 1 as 10/10 but the last season was 4/10 and then the troy guy started getting really pretentious and broke the group up because he wanted to keep all the money.

>>383969773
I stopped watching Marble Hornets after the timeskip that immediately went into flash back tapes. I was confused as fuck about what was when considering the long waits between episodes.

>>383968153
Ben Drowned had the best ending to this type of shit to date.

Is there still no new one up?

>>383969848
I watched the whole thing and I couldn't really tell you the plot. I think alex was behind slenderman but then troy chases him through time and kills him or something. EverymanHybrid has the same problem with not knowing when to end
>>383969897
The ending was perfect and has the secret to how to defeat any ghost.

>>383961605
I started to follow this videos when an Anon on /v/ posted it like 3 months ago, I hope they are around here.
At first was interesting, now it looks like pure clickbait.

Not only is the writing garbage but look at this picture, the glitches are in a higher resolution than the actual graphics

He didn't even fucking try

>>383970343
>now it looks like pure clickbait
Every episode is called "Petscop (#)" and has a game screenshot for the thumbnail, what the fuck are you talking about?

>>383970380
Go ahead and stop, it's shitballs. The ending is a big shonen anime fight against satan or whatever with his dead girlfriend and they win through the power of love.

>>383970510
And I thought The Princess' ending was shit.

>>383970510
Jeezus christ
I will never understand how some things become popular

What are some other GOOD creepypastas? My favorites have been Ted the Caver, the stinkymeat project, Ben Drowned, and Petscop

>>383970465
Sorry I didn't explain myself very well, lasted videos sucked, specially when the OP tried to create tension by censoring stuff, and now there is so much Youtubers making videos and theories about it. He clearly ran out of ideas by this point.

>>383970510
Only good thing that came out of this was Still The Best 1973.

>>383970676
I've always liked Pale Luna. Simple and to the point.

>>383961605
i actually really fucking hate this.

like bravo on making all this shit, it's really fucking authentic as far as crappy ps1 games go, but it'd be a whole lot creepier as a series if it didn't have some whiny faggot talking over it trying to "explain" it.

>>383970691
It was censored because it's implied to be cp

>>383970774
The narrator was what made the entire thing for me, he sounds exactly like he WOULD be making this kind of awkward video

His video is absolute dogshit, I couldn't bare to watch more than 10 minutes. I don't know how someone can talk like such a retard while saying absolutely nothing in as many words as possible.

>>383970774
>but it'd be a whole lot creepier as a series if it didn't have some whiny faggot talking over it trying to "explain" it
The narrator almost never says anything, though?

>>383970770
Pale Luna is overrated as fuck

>>383970882
That's my own assessment I haven't watched any theories on it. There would be no reason to censor anything else unless it's gore or something similar. Obviously nothing was really there.

>>383970774
THAT'S A DEAD KID

>>383971092
That's how it always goes

>recites the head of a wikia entry about the story
>walks through the entire thing in needless detail (80% of the video)
>regurgitates simple rundowns of a few fan theories
>"hey guys thank you so much for watching..."

>>383971297
One of the best moments in the whole thing

>>383965958
I think he made a good point though. Like, maybe the story is making allusions to the Candace Newmaker thing, but the game was said to be made before that went down, so maybe it isn't as important as some people think it to be.

>>383971319
Night Mind is god tier. Only the Petscop video is pretty bad. He got way ahead of himself.

>>383961605
>ayy it was made for the ps in 1997 but got canned i swear
why is he liying? could he just be honest hes making this game since 2013

>>383972381
I was talking about most creepypasta channels, not just him

>>383972382
It's a fucking fiction story, dumbass

>>383961605

>>383972768
Why do people do this?

While I don't hate it, the whole thing just has so many flaws in my mind.

The writing/narration comes off as stilted and unnatural. Most of the way he talks doesn't feel genuine at all.

The way he plays the game also doesn't feel like something a first time player would be doing either. Like an example would be a person would be bumping up against pretty much everything trying to see if they can interact with it. Instead, he basically beelines to the only scripted stuff like he knows what does/doesn't work.

The graphics just.. Don't work that way. There would be no reason for a lighting engine to be set up like that in the game, let alone have everything premade and so wildly different graphically unless the game was built ontop of another.

And most of all, there is no damn reason that the collectables would be strewn about like they were unless they were manually placed like that.

Its a really interesting concept and I applaud the guy for what hes trying, but theres so many effin problems even on a base level with the thing.

desu he's gone down hill ever since he got a patreon. I have only seen one channel ever do well after getting one and that's Jim

>>383975112
The best part about Petscop is how good Paul's character is. He comes off as 100% legitimate. Hell, even this retard >>383965167 thinks he's a legitimately unaware player.

>>383975112
He mentions that the game was probably made to send a message to someone personally, and that he wasn't that person.
Even though it's fake, everything so far is built off of it being made personally as a message for another person.

>>383961605
"This game is trying really hard to make it seem like there's an entity in it. Like a ghost!"

Stopped watching there and lost all interest. A shame too because it was just starting to pull me in.

>>383975112
I find his reactions kinda funny. Like he isn't as weirded out as he should be by the game. Reminds me of the guy playing Sonic 2 Special Edition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnnVmpSrrak

>>383975430
He said the game ISN'T doing that, retard. He literally said the opposite and you sperg out like the fedoratard you are.

>>383962807
Neat for the fact it's someone making a game to seem like a lost game. it does hit that mark very well. You could very easily see parts of this being a legit 90's ps1 game that never made it past alpha.

Lame for the fact that you know it's a creepy pasta thing and those are never good. No story it delivers can be too interesting because it's just gonna be 'woooo dead little girl" or some shit

I'd say it's worth watching if you don't mind the creepypasta aspect existing and just want to see someone's effort going into making a beleivable fake game.

>>383975707
I wonder, has anyone made a real creepypasta-esque game and loaded it on an SNES cart or something? I'd think after all these types of stories someone would do that and sell it to a used game store.

>>383975295
I'm honestly not sure how anyone would feel he comes out as genuine. Maybe its because I've watched normal LPs and even blind LPs, but from the way he talks to the way he interacts with everything just comes off as scripted to me.

>>383975342
I guess? I mean he doesn't really say that much, just that there was a note with instructions on how to get into that other area. That said, even if thats true it would be an absurd amount of work to make a game as a message.

>>383975430
Nothing really extraordinary like that happens (yet), but yeah it's moments like this that make me feel like it's going to have the NES Godzilla ending, only without STILL THE BEST

>>383971296
My guess is it's where the ARG elements are really going to take off. They say it's censored for the time being, and my best guess is it's going to be locations IRL and they're just waiting to plant or place stuff at said locations.

>>383975707
This. Just enjoy it for what it is you fags. There's never going to be a real haunted game.

Petscop is just a hyper-extended trailer for an upcoming atmospheric adventure game coming to Steam later this year. The things that are being censored are major story/puzzle spoilers for the full game.

>>383975887
Well I mean, not really that much work. From what the game has shown so far, it could probably be done in a week and some change in your off-time. It's just that he directly states that "hey this feels like it was meant to send a personal message and that the start kinda hides it for those it wasn't intended for" or something.
If he didn't mention it was made in 1997 it would be much more believeable though since the entire thing is apparently referencing stuff in the future

>>383976019
Fuck you, that'd better not be true

They probably would have gone with a haunted .exe file or something if that were the case, though. This PS1 aspect doesn't make much sense, especially with the game telling you to turn the Playstation off

>>383976187
>If he didn't mention it was made in 1997
But he didn't. That's just the copyright date on the title screen, which means nothing because the game was never finished, the date would just be a placeholder.

>>383976019
I'd rather just play Petscop itself

>>383976351
Oh neat. I just jumped in right now since I got nothing better to do and assumed it was just an extension of some forum post where he spoke about the game.

flawed as it may be, I really enjoy the overall atmosphere of Marble Hornets (which is a result of the locations and the format). I still rewatch the dvds once in a while.

That's over, right? Was the ending decent?

>>383976848
I've never seen a game fucking m u r d e r e d like this

>>383977298
eh, not that good. it wasn't terrible, but it was too long-winded.

>>383977298
It was good, though some things are left open.

Alex shoots and kills Jay in the third-to-last episode. Tim chases after hoodie guy/Brian in a batshit crazy sequence that ends in Brian's death by falling. Tim then finds out that Jay is dead then confronts and kills alex. It was pretty good. Then the last episode has Tim revealing Jessica is alive, showing signs of being affected by slendermin.

If it's the latter, I have no idea what the fuck it is. I love it though, it's a great mix of hilarious and unsettling.

>>383978114
no, i read it all, and while there is an explanation i dont think it actually explained why satisfactorily.

He shouldn't have included a free-answer section in the videos. No normal person would ask half the things he did with, much less with such tediously-slow typing and correct grammar.

>>383978348
Examples

>>383961605
Does this thing have jumpscares or am I safe?

Been wanting to watch this for a while but never really went for it, won't bother if there are jumpscares.

>>383963028
personally i'm waiting to see WHY he censored it story-wise before saying it's stupid or not

>>383978447
No jumpscares. It's all atmosphere.

petscop11.mkv

>>383978348
What? Yes they would. There was nothing unrealistic about his questions. Obviously the game was only programmed to answer a few questions, so why wouldn't the questions have to be in proper grammar when possible?

Also have you never typed on an interface like that? It's painfully slow

>>383978586
FINALLY

>>383978447
Yes there are

No there aren't but if you know for sure the video won't make as nervous as it's supposed to

>>383978623
I'd imagine that an actual game would look for keywords, like if it read "newmaker" and a question mark in the same sentence, it would give the appropriate response

>>383975887
>Maybe its because I've watched normal LPs and even blind LPs
LPers are entertainers, while Paul is just a guy uploading videos of him playing a game. There's a huge difference.

Petscop is essentially jumpscare blueballs.
The atmosphere keeps you on edge constantly, but nothing ever happens.
