Not really.
That's just Nightmare Masterclass's analysis of it (yes, i know that's what you're referencing, you little mongoloid rat) because he's slowly losing his mind and becoming extremized each new vid until eventually he'll just start posting ISIS-like vids where he's recording himself shooting fascists in the head with an ak or something.

I felt he made good points though. That's why I'm asking about it.

>I felt he made good points though
He didn't.
He's starting to inject this point of view onto EVERYTHING he breaks down, no matter what the work even is.
He's warping everything around himself to fit his narrative, he's starting to ignore any original intent the author might have, and just injecting his own, the constext is always how pissed he is at capitalism so he sees everything trough that.
It's making his content decline dramatically in quality because each new vid is a fucking essay on how much capitalism sucks and how piggy is evil.

He's one note and starting to become borderline psychotic.
And this is coming from someone that isn't even right wing in the slightest.
He's just too much now, even for my standards.

Petscop 2

where the FUCK is paul

He was never real, just an AI, like in the previous gens.

Paul (used to be) in the monitored room with the needle piano.
This was a number of years ago, from our perspective, so we don't currently know where he is, or if he's even still alive.

Did you watch his comment response video? Some people raise the same points as you and he provides data that support his view.

Can someone give me a quick rundown on this? I've watch several videos about it, but I still don't get it.

Wow this thread is totally about video games.

It's complicated. The (currently) 21 videos on the Youtube channel are the only official content for it, so just watch those if you're interested.

Petscop thread are okay on Yea Forums, no?

>first 10 vids or so make it feel like just some fake videogame archeology with a little bit of creepy stuff sprinkled on top
>goes completely elsewhere after that
>new episodes are completely nonsensical without reading through tons upon tons of fan theories and analysis on deep symbolism and hidden subplots
Man, why you gotta blueball me like that.

>Wow this thread is totally about video games.
I mean, Petscop is actually a playable game.
Or rather, playable "pieces" of a game.
We just can't play it ourselves, but it's technically an actual game someone made for the purpose of this story.

Everything is critique of capitalism now, isn't it?

Everyone loves to hate the system that keeps them enjoying the highest standard of living in history

It seems more likely they threw it together in Unity ot something like that, yeah.

Un-fucking the timeline, the most concrete events are:

>in the nineties a girl got kidnapped
>possibly the dad is involved?
>was forced to be prisoner in an abandoned school for months "studying"
>a guy makes a video game to "investigate" this event
>it's actually a complicated software that has the purpose of monitoring specific individuals, including the girl's dad
>it's scope is bigger than that, it's about a bunch of children that died/disappeared, possibly linked
>some of the people playing this game are in dedicated rooms being recorded
>possibly some sort of "tool" is used for punishment/information extraction or other, there's some bigger tool that resembles a piano but with needles involved too
>the guy playing the game in the first vids was recording these many years ago, he's not involved with making the game itself
>he can relate to some of the things shown but doesn't understand the bigger picture either
>we're watching recordings reposted by an unnamed third party, he doesn't control the channel

Additionally i guess the biggest point is

>there's either people trapped in the game as "data", or, they're trapped in some location and forced to play all day, they talk to each other forming words via controller input combinations, like cheat codes

Don't forget that Paul is Care after going FtM tranny.

Also those trapped people are just AIs.

Oh you're talking about the whole "she disappeared alongside the windmill then she reappeared" thing.
The FtM thing is a bit outlandish but i guess we'll see moving fowards.

You're mixing people. The windmill girl is Lina Leskowitz, one generation older than Care.

Marvin believes Care is a reincarnation of Lina, but that's not directly connected to Care trannying out. That happened only after the abuse she took from Marvin.

Ok, that definitely makes more sense.

petscop is boring garbage. the fake game footage was interesting at first but it immediately devolved into the most painfully generic dark and rusty imagery with the exact same child abuse angle as every other hacky creepypasta.

its true thats its a bunch of uninteresting WORDSWORDSWORDS and everyone figured out the meaning behind it with the weird baby blanket birth bullshit like really fucking early on and it hasnt tried to pull any new surprises.

Yeah you gotta wonder if people just called the backstory/reference really early and the creator didn't know what to do. I know people point out the discrepancy in dates between the real life Newmaker incident and the time frame of the game, but let's be real, that could easily be the creator fucking up.

Le shit? The Newmaker stuff is just background lore for anyone to easily find.

Do you really think the makers thought noone would just fucking Google "Newmaker"?

It clearly was never meant to be a mystery in any sense.

>>Yeah you gotta wonder if people just called the backstory/reference really early and the creator didn't know what to do
considering how absolutely not subtle it was, that seems doubtful

>exact same child abuse angle as every other hacky creepypasta
Fucking thank you, I'm so sick of people thinking nothing can be scary unless it involves a little girl.
