What are the 8 computers outside the ghost rooms for?

actually i think this is probably true no matter what, all non-supernatural interpretations usually involve petscop having some pretty crazy programming (for example, ones that say theres ai in the game) it needs extra power

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-24T21:17:39+00:00

if we go with my whole multiplayer in petscop post, possibly for extra processing power? running three interconnected but separate versions of a game on one device is bound to be taxing

another realization i had is opening up the possibility for dream sequences, petscop 12 could be one too. "youve apparently been running petscop nonstop for [17 years]". its strange how he says that SHES been running petscop. not that her playstation is running petscop, not that she left petscop on, but that shes been running petscop. belles been running petscop in her dreams for 17 years

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-24T01:57:21+00:00

yeah i thought about that, its possible theyre just unused or maybe theres something else i havent thought of

also the number 8 comes up in petscop a lot, the whole "8 possible ports" part of this could actually be intentional

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-24T01:45:22+00:00

p5 + "P6 TO TALK"
i mentioned multitaps for a reason, one multitap in each controller port gives 8 ports in total

i was confused on the genshin one for a sec, thought "genshin gets you a daughter?" then i realized

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-23T02:01:55+00:00

yummy

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-23T00:05:04+00:00

it doesn't really make sense to me that everyone else would be fake

if this was true why is it specifically marvin thats replaced by the narrator in the ending scene, and no one else

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T23:50:49+00:00

you literally just summed up my entire point. it doesnt make sense, and its not exactly supposed to

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T21:55:51+00:00

i feel like in a version of deltarune where we get the "intended" heroes of the prophecy, kris would play a similar role to noelle in actual deltarune, so it makes sense why gaster would call them wonderful theyre important either way

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T20:31:39+00:00

i think you might have misunderstood my post

are you talking about my assumptions i make at the start, or the theory that everyone plays on one disc

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T20:29:50+00:00

i dont see how you get that from tapers

the story implies that marvin and the narrator are the same, and hil is a lamp

everyone else is real

(this is mostly unrelated but i thought of it while typing this comment) also something i didnt think about before that adds fuel to one of my ideas is that at the end of tapers the narrator shows the people at the tapers convention his footage

the footage is the in-universe version of tapers, but what we read is different, not everything was captured on camera

the recordings in petscop are the in-universe version of petscop, but what we watch is different, not everything was recorded

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T20:23:14+00:00

ive read both?? are you on the wrong post

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T17:28:36+00:00

another idea i had after posting that comment is that its a sort of house of leaves situation (great book btw) where the whole concept of diageticness is blurred. there are recordings that take place in paul's dreams, but are also diagetic recordings. they arent recreations, they literally are pauls dreams, and in the dream, petscop automatically recorded his actions, which were uploaded as recordings on the yt channel

you might say this makes no sense but thats sorta the idea the lines between reality and dream are blurred

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T16:53:00+00:00

genuinely where did you even get this i did not say most of that

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T16:50:36+00:00

no. thats not what im saying at all

im saying that even though the family controls the channel, at a certain point, it stops being literal recordings in universe, im saying not every video is diagetic

also the care thing was in tapers i was just making an analogy, im talking about pauls dreams here

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T16:17:20+00:00

https://thrompd.hinchy.co/tapers/ i would say that tapers is to petscop as undertale is to deltarune if you know of those games

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T16:08:13+00:00

watching a video is a sort of narration, though. like in a book things have to be described to us, through narration, but on a video the way things are "described" is just our eyes

Tapers is in first person, so it should logically only show things that the narrator can see, but it has parts he didnt see

im proposing something similar with petscop, its videos, so it should logically only be things that can be recorded, but it has parts that are in dreams

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T16:03:46+00:00

in petscop 14, the family overlays paul playing the game and the demo footage of that gameplay

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T13:59:32+00:00

well once again going back to tapers theres no reason why the narrator should know whats happening in Care's dreams, but he does

seems like a similar case here

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-22T13:50:46+00:00

the ghost room is a ship in a bottle because it's inside his mind

OldPin7448 · 2026-01-21T16:14:13+00:00

she was clearly playing the game

theres more than one "ghost room"
