12yo kids get scared of a lot of stuff, nothing new
>>
I think it's less that they're scared and more creeped out.

Give me a quick rundown, OP
>>
>>389575669
Have you seen the comments for analysis videos of it? They literally sound like children who are scared that a monster is under their bed.
>>
>>389575705
Petscop is a fictional, non-existant game that's part of an ARG. A big part of the game is the death of a child from a decade or so ago.
>>
Isn't dead?

No, Carlos, I mean he whole meme project of this

Kids are scared of it, nobody other than an actual kid would think fall for the "SO I FOUND THIS WEIRD GAME" creepypasta prompt. Let alone the game looks too good for a PSX game, nobody other than children would think it's legit.

It was too fucking boring for me to actually keep up with, honestly.
>>
I'm just fucking bored by it.
It went too fast into the "odd shit is happening" part that the stuff that followed wasn't really that scary, creepy or interesting.
>>
>>389575867
3 possibilities:
First: yes it's dead
Second: they will continue 9 months later after their last video (heh, 9 months, just like it a baby to be born, get it)
Third: they will surface a decade later asking subscribers to do a petscop sex survey

Seriously that was so fucking weak
>>
>>389575705
Not OP, but it's a let's play for a non-existent PlayStation 1 game. The premise is that the LPer was given an incomplete game that gains a new level with horror undertones after entering in some obscure code.
Notably, the game has a bunch of parallels to the death of a real life kid named Candace Newmaker.

>>389576254
What do you mean?
Weak because afraid to show or because used a cheap technique to make community guess rather than using direct telling and get accused in pedo?
>>
The oddest and creepiest part about it is that it's a psx game with no texture warping.
>>
>>389576493

It's a cheap technique to generate intrigue. It shows they don't have the creativity to make people ask questions and instead have to withhold information in the most hamfisted way possible to make people wonder.
>>
>>389576493
The second one.
>>
>>389576254
Incredibly creative and wholly unique. Name 1 other series to do this.
>>
>>389576726

Others series don't do it because it's a fucking retarded way to make people ask questions.
>>
>>389576667
they probably realized they had the twelve year old audience that watches "analysis" videos and want to ride the wave as long as possible
>>
>>389575390
I thought it started out well enough but then became dull. What happened to the kid is fucked up though, no denying that. That's probably why so many find it "scary".
>>
>>389576524
That would require him to actually write a code to emulate it, instead of just slapping a filter and randomly putting simple assets he created in 10 minutes.
>>
Analysis shit is what killed cool horror Youtube stuff.
>>
>so many people ITT going for the Candace Newmaker route
lmaoing at your low brain almond activity
>>
>>389577278

It doesn't really matter, the series is weak as fuck
>>
>>389577278
I find it the only theory to actually give the game any sense of merit. Without it is just boring as shit and way too slow.
That being said it is impressive that the guy is going this far for an ARG, so mad props to him
>>
>>389577278
get out of here nightmind
>>
>>389576726
Novel doesn't mean good.
>>
>>389577801

He presents a good argument as to why the theory doesn't work, and it mostly hinges on there being basically nothing to support the theory.

>censor bars
>everybody looking too deep into it

It was a nice ride. Nice to sit back and watch it. But once things started to be censored thats when I lost pretty much all interest. It was so obvious that it was building up to a horrific reveal, and then instead of thinking of something creative, original, or actually grotesque, he took the lazy route and just put a censor bar and said "OMG SO BAD I CANT LET YOU SEE". At that point the pay off was all it had going for it, and then there wasnt a pay off.

The fact that people are looking too deep into it doesnt really detract from the story or anything its just something that annoys me. Its obviously a fake entertainment story, just chill out and enjoy the ride.

Nah it's probably some spooky gore or something equally unremarkable.
>>
>>389580581
It's hyperrealistic blood
>>
>>389577920
This about sums up my feelings on the subject. It wasn't perfect, and I had problems with it since the first episode, but this was such a massive fuckup it cheapens the rest of the experience.

Resnik is a genius. Can't wait for him to make more stuff.
>>
>>389585394

He's honestly the only reason I tune in to late night Adult Swim. Seeing Uncut Footage of a Bear and This House Has People In It was so fucking surreal that I truly believe the only real way to experience them is to have them just show up out of nowhere.
>>
Resnik should work with Nathan Fielder

>>389575390
It's creepypastas all over again, everything is fucking stupid but for some reason they're popular among kids and they're unironically seen as scary
>>
>>389584739
fuck you, it's night where im at and this fucking blinded me for a good bit
>>
Why was this brought up?
was there any development after #10?
>>
Imagine if any other hobby community was as uncreative as the video game one.

>/a/ creepypastas would be about someone finding a VHS (or Video CD, gotta be obscure to get cred) of DBZ that's distorted and Nappa keeps showing up saying "why did you kill me vegeta" or whatever but the VHS was destroyed
>/tg/ creepypastas would be about finding an old game of monopoly where the money was instead "souls" and "go to jail" was "go to hell" and the pieces were something something allusion to the bible; board game was destroyed in the end
>/o/ creepypastas would either be about some MR2 or Miata they bought for cheap and started blasting eurobeat but blood was oozing from the speakers and the car was destroyed in the end
>/ck/ creepypastas would be about a McChicken that wasn't a good sandwhich but the orator ate it anyway

>>389575390
I've said this before, the series should've gradually turn into this spooky thing instead of going right into it.
>>
>>389586776

Somebody watched it recently and wanted others to talk about it with them
>>
Is it over yet or is he still uploading very very slowly?
