So... Pico really went- "Darnell will snap my neck if i crease his jays so i gotta be careful"

[@imspoilerina9228]

About your comment in regards to the wall art.. here’s my theory, I feel like DD was watching, in hope of seeing Pico getting killed by his friends since he messed up his job twice. And ofc Darnell and Nene failed to kill Pico as they just made up and wtv. Now, bc of all of this, I feel like DD would somehow revive Pico’s arch enemy, Cassandra. Cassandra is the main anatagonist of Pico’s School and was sole reason as to why Pico has PTSD. I feel like DD reviving her so he could hire her to be the new merk that attacks Pico would make sense.. not just to kill him but to also torment him bc again, she was the main cause for Pico’s trauma. She might also kill Darnell and possibly Nene since they failed to kill Pico but idk. Fun fact: similar to Darnell, Nene didn’t originate from Pico’s School. She instead originated from her own short game called Nene’s su*cide interactive, where you would have to click on objects throughout Nene’s room that could help her commit self deletion Also, phantomarcade confirmed tankman is still alive

[@manuelvasconcelos8982]

Also Cassandra is actually a penilien, which as the name implies are a race of aliens with penises regardless of gender

[@toastedprocastinator]

very awesome worthy theory. cool sauce/10. also wait darnell had his own game? i only knew about pico and nene's game. DX edit : damn i should've finished the video first. ☠️

[@imspoilerina9228]

@@toastedprocastinator i wouldn't call it a game but its more of a short movie rather than a game

[@KINGD353]

Whether Cassandra is brought back or not nene is definitely surprising. She's not allowed to survive any game that isn't pico's school. And even that one she can die in (nomcannonically) Also are you sure suicide simulator came out before school?

[@vevedrawz]

Recently, it was confirmed that the tankman we fight in week 7, captain john is still alive, and will be returning to fnf. My guess is as a playable character for weekend 2

[@toastedprocastinator]

​@@FlamingGrenade fr, it was about sewer slides if you get my drift. ☠️ ( litterally. )

[@afosandstufflol]

Darnell actually DOES get referenced in Pico's School, by Pico and a poster in the hall. However he doesn't show up. He probably left already to go burn a tree in the school's yard or some shit

[@KINGD353]

Odd I could've sworn Pico and be even were stated to be the only survivors of the school which would mean Darnell didn't go there.

[@mahendraramrattan3961]

Fact: The first tiem we actually saw Darnell was Picos School. He apperad on a big sign saying : Vote Darnell for calss president. I only have 5 years left to live

[@SpiroThe96th]

Darnell Plays With Fire came out before Pico's School. It came out in February 1999 while Pico's School came out on July 1999. Check the Pico Wiki, they even cited the sources.

[@InternetFanatic]

9:39 I’m very curious about Pico’s scar and encounter with Honzo because unless if I’m wrong or a retcon happened, the events of the original Pico’s School didn’t happen in the FnF and it was instead the “Love Conquers All” version where nothing bad happened, including the fight between Pico and Honzo So I’m curious what happened between them

[@crosheljarron9982]

Love conquers is a alternative timeline

[@_INKY_THE_IDIOT]

Love conquers all was mostly meant to be a joke

[@glitterfish2]

From my perspective, I believe Love Conquers All was used as a way to show (from the other creator's perspective) that FNF and Pico's School are indeed set in the same universe, and also establishes that boyfriend and pico were dating before the events of Pico's School, further establishing that Pico has a long history with BF and it makes sense he wouldn't want to kill him. Now you might be saying, "but it's set in an alternate timeline!! Wouldn't that mean that nothing in it is canon, including BF?" and to that I say, you would be misinterpreting what an "alternate timeline" changes about a sequence of events. The events of Love Conquers All are simply avoiding the massacre, and thus it only changes anything that is established to have been *currently happening* in the regular timeline of Pico's School. In this alternate timeline, it is revealed by Pico that he is currently dating BF. Naturally, there's no way this happened in the short amount of time that was shown since the timeline split, and thus it can be assumed Pico was dating him before this, therefore he was still dating him in the regular timeline around the same time. BF and Pico's relationship does not hinge on the events changed by the alternate timeline, and thus can exist in both! Not only that, regular timeline Pico's trauma seems to shape who he is as a character in the FNF universe. He clearly has his history with guns, and Cassandra is nowhere to be found, because she would most likely still be alive and maybe even friends with Pico and his group if she had gone through the events of Love Conquers All. Not only that, Tankman calls Pico "sexually ambiguous" (again, implying he has indeed been in a relationship with another man, and implying it's BF) and then says "Don't you have a school to shoot up?" implying he might even know about Pico's past. Although I believe Phantom Arcade once said Tankman is just really good at reading people and doesn't actually know what all is going on, so don't make it any heavy evidence of anything. FNF is most definitely set in the regular Pico's School timeline!

[@sukifloof8926]

The original picos school is the canon timeline in fnf. Love conquers all is an alternate universe. Although whatever timeline is canon, boyfriend and pico still dated. Only in the original picos school fnf timeline we don’t know when it happens.

[@ethbeatthem4836]

I think Online Multiplayer, Sharing Network, Mobile Build and the Custom Character Creators are the most likely Full version 2.0 Free update stuff. Everything else on this list (maybe not Epilogue songs but I feel they would want to get all the main songs plan done) will be in the full Game as 10 additional character plus the 4 confirm (which include Pico) feel like the likelier of the 2 between it and Custom Character Creator as I feel they will want to make that as Good as possible.

Corrections: 0:52 nene's debut is actually "nene's interactive suicide" which is before pico's school 1:17 nene's a contract killer (according to funkin' wiki) Make an addenum with this comment in mind

[@justhere1007]

it time

[@user-StarMaster]

pico needs better friends its no wonder why hes the way he is! Nene is a psychopath and darnell is apathetic and just goes along with whatever nene says BUT PICO STILL CARES ABOUT THEM, in the alleyway pico had the perfect opportunity too just shoot nene at point blank but didnt do it, if that happened then he would of been able too shoot darnell during the rap battle since nene wouldnt be there too knife him if he shot darnell, honestly thats my biggest gripe with weekend 1, Pico learned from his mistakes in week 3 and made up with bf by saving him in week 7 from tankman and is now wanted by D.D. and M.M. But he and darnell made up making it seem like Pico was in the wrong there, and Nene didnt apologise at all, Honestly after he gobsmacked darnell i expected him too just glare and walk off effectively ending their friendship. But they still made up, even if pico doesnt help them during the next time they encounter bf, darnell and nene are still after him, I just want too see Pico finally snap at them and leave them behind too get a better life, because honestly Tankman was less mean too him THEN HIS SO CALLED BEST FRIENDS

[@t.dmattocks6119]
