I absolutely love how everyone draws Grian's eyes in all these animations but you managed to put so much emotion into his little tally marks /pos

IKR those rectangles have no right being that expressive but it’s SO COOL

It's like every professor Layton movie, somehow they manage to always have him have expressions with his eyes and somehow convey thinking without his hands. Yes he too has rectangular eyes

3:28 I love the transitions between the seasons showing Grian and scars relationship in each season with the fluid dance moves

Also the three life colors through three seasons was a very cover touch

I just realized the symbolism that you did, like how the first time grian encountered the sonic boom of the warden, scar was there to pull him out, but in the end, scar wasn't there to save him. So beautiful.

In every season, it feels like the more this duo is forced by fate to cooperate , the more troublesome the relationship becomes. (I find it kinda interesting that it's always Grian who's in debt to Scar, never the other way around.)

Scars whole thing is getting people in debt to him by shady means lol

I like how slowly Grians wings become worse, like they used to be fluffy and white, but by the end they are charred and black! Just a very interesting detail I don't see anyone talking about atm

I was going to comment on it before I saw yours, it is such an amazing detail, also the fact that his wings had gotten charred because of scar getting blown up, so damn amazing

OOH I got CHILLS when the music got quiet and scar's on his horse, and the effect hit him and the music kicked back in, SUCH a cool part

I love how no one commented on this just not to bother rusty

In fact, it's so incredible that such a drama can develop in such a seemingly simple game as Minecraft. I especially love Scar's death in a zombie pit, as if it were a movie. You have a wonderful drawing style, I love all your animations, keep up the good work!

Showing their final death from Scar’s POV first broke me. Then the final-final death from Scott’s POV, seeing Pearl lunging forward. Brilliant. This whole animatic is fricking gorgeous amazing. Well done!

Wow. The art in incredible. The moment of Scar just collapsing from the pain of Grian dying was so good and made me want to hug him so much

I love the scar left on Grian's head after the dripstone thing, a tiny detail but I absolutely love it

Oh my gooooddddd that was absolutely stunning. I love how, intentionally or not, it emphasizes how the two times Scar died Grian was right there just out of reach to help, but when Grian died they had both split off from each other and Scar didn’t even know he was in danger until they were both gone for good. The emotions were beautifully done, their push and pull of hurting each other and yet still being stuck together and working with that comes through so well.

0:16 love how Grian is just like: well I'm done lol

Are you gonna hurt me with these two in every season now???? I love that you can use your own animation as flashbacks aaaaaa The part where Scar looks back up at Grian being impressed with the water clutch was so good like a glimmer of hope for them and then you tore my heart out with them dying to the sonic blast. That part was so well done with the pulsing camera shot thing. Ugh you’re killing me with these they’re so good

I am legit crying rn. The sneaky transitions into 3rd life, the emotion, the symbolism, all of it was glorious. They keep on drifting every season, with the least interactions in secret life.

GAAHHHHFfhdkjsfk YOUR DESERTDUO PMVs NEVER FAIL TO AMAZE !!!!! There's something so so special about how you present the parts of the story paired with the editing, like, it all just hits like a gut punch, it's absolutely incredible!! Thanks again for breaking my heart and ruining my day with another masterpiece /pos !!

CAN I JUST SAW THE WAY YOU DRAW PERSPECTIVES IS ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS??? the different angles are so accurate and refreshing to see !!

NOX OMY GOODNESS THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE I had to pose multiple times and just take in the scene You really captured the emotion and low-key now I miss desert duo what have you done 😆

i'm sobbing oh my god this is so awesome!! every single frame looks incredible! the FLASHBACKS and the DANCING oh my god this tickles every part of my little lizard brain!!

Just to let you know that this is beautiful, and I am really hurt Also I really love the character designs, especially the way Grian's wings turns black and broken as he become red. I love this but owie it hurts

I need you to know this has my writer brain in such a chokehold right now

Nox- you have just been dropping so many of these. It’s so impressive ngl- you have some mad motivation, I salute to you lmao. And, I love the song- great choice as always! And I have said it before, and I’ll say it again. Your style is so cool, and I love the way you draw Scar. He’s just so.. Scar. And the way you portray everyone is so good. You can really feel the emotions in them, from everyones POV. And to think this all came from little blocky guys that are just having a fun time-

Yet another amazing animatic! I really love how this looks!! Can't wait for the limited life one 😉😉

*THIS IS INCREDIBLE AA* and the EFFECTS WITH THE WARDEN SCREAM AND THE GLITCHING OUT AA

when i tell you i was SUCKER PUNCHED by nostalgia for that One Undertale video with this song as soon as i heard the lyrics… (seriously this is beautiful desert duo will never let me be free)

i think this is one of my fav desertduo animatics scar's definitely my favourite youtuber right now

Wow! I love this so much!!!!🤩 It's exactly what my head cannon is for Desert Duo: 3rd Life they were happy together, Last Life they were separate and unstable, in Double Life Grian was scared of Scar hurting himself and repeating 3rd Life, and then Limited Life Grian kinda wants to be with Scar and watches his feats from afar, but gets dragged away by the Bad Boys.

As someone who grew up with undertale this is actually my first time hearing the normal song lol, also great animation, 10/10 made me cry

haven't heard this song in years 💀 YUMMY AMINATION

I hate I hate I hate I hate this it's making me sooo emotional and it has no right to do so Ok but seriously, the art and the story pacing to the song in this, and how flawlessly interwoven the different timelines are here without it being confusing is seriously amazing. You expanded on so many scenes from the series sooo well and it breaks my heatr in all the best ways. As in the warden scenes for example, them running from it and Grian later dying to it gets more focus and art than they do a lot of the rest of the time. It also makes me feel less bad about their final death being so sudden when people like you make more out of it!! Again the art is fantastic so all the expressions help with all that so much. This pmv really does make me so emotional you have no idea

I love how you drew their relationship and how it progresses through out Double life + their past memories of them in other life series. I promise i tried really hard, but at the end i still couldn't hold my tears back. The last scene was what broke me down, actually. 😭

i was NOT expecting this to be one of the vocal synth songs on my playlist, but thats pretty cool :3 two fandoms merging

NOX OMG, you never dissapoint us

HOLY CRAP! this is BEAUTIFUL! I saw the title and thought of the song, but I didn't think it would be hit song "Close to You". and I just love the symbolism with the "connected" part with the string! JUST BEAUTIFUL, I CAN'T GET OVER HOW AMAZING THIS VIDEO IS!!!!!!!!!!

this is absolutely incredible. I love this with all my life. DesertDuo will always be my favorite duo fr

Epic once again! If you feel up to the challenge, I love to see you complete the set! (though you're under no obligation to do so ;) ) I really love how these animatics manage to portray Grian's third death to the warden in such as tragic, dramatic way, despite it being one of his least exciting deaths. But I especially love how you depicted the moment, at least initially, from Scar's perspective. That twist, that reversal of expectations, makes this animatic stand out from the crowd.

I need more Desert Duo in my life!

I keep coming back to watch this time and time again. It's such a huge inspiration to me and I love the emotions that can be felt in every frame. The art style, the editing, the designs, the colors. I love it all

This song genuinely makes me feel so much emotion- and this animatic did too- I’m just casually holding in tears 😭

Why is this banger not on Spotify 😭🙏

This is one of the best things I have ever seen! I love desert duo and I also love this animation so much and this song is soooo good!

THIS IS AMAZING. THE ART IS AMAZING, THE SONG CHOICE IS AMAZING- THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST- IF NOT 𝘛𝘏𝘌 BEST DOUBLE LIFE ANIMATIC I'VE EVER SEEN. 🤗💛💛💛

This is very incredible, I’m tearing up.😭

The song has already touched me and and you did this, this is so good everything and the composition and everything jhsdjhsdhbsadhbsdcjh :((( just watch out one day nox when. I. Get. Back. My. Motivation. You gave me the chills watching this on stream < / 3

I’m literally crying right now

SCREAMING CRYING THROWING UP

I AM SOSSOSOOSOSOSOSOSO NORMAL ABOUT THEM THIS IS SO WONDERFUL I AM SOOOOOOOOOOO OBSESSED HERE OKAY OKAY OKAY WOWOWOWOWOWOWOWOOWOWW

This is so good

Im actually at a loss for words, this was amazing!!

WOW This is absolutely amazing! I don’t know how you do it! The emotion that you’re able to show and the fabulous art style is just !!!!!!!

Interesting thought: Among the 4 seasons of the life series, Grian has killed scar 3 out of 4 times In duoble life him dying lead to scar dying so if you think about it, he killed scar🧐🤔 The other two are easy to point out

THE PARALLELS OF 2:21 AND 4:14 ARE CRAZY- JUST LIKE THEIR RELATIONSHIP THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE LIFE SERIES, THEY DRIFTED APART IN DEATH DISTANCE AND IN THEIR ACTUAL RELATIONSHIP. When they are apart (emotionally or literally), they die quicker. Third Life (Grian's jump after the death of Scar in the ring). Last Life (Grian dies to Scott shortly after Scar gets shot). Double Life (The warden kills Grian, killing them both). And the animation shows it, but despite that they're still drifting further and further away. The distance between their deaths is growing, their relationship is suffering, and they're all dying really fast because of separation. EDIT: ok I explained this weird- despite the distance between them growing, the times of their death are still really similar, always being in the same episode, showing how they're still intrinsically tied even with their differences.

i love the scene of them dancing. amazing job 🙌

I love the detail of first the bandage on Grian’s eye and then there being a scar.

Great art and song choice^^ Love it~

0:17 - 0:23 LOVE THIS PART

WOW that was so GOOD!! HOW ARE YOU ABLE TO RELEASE A 5MIN ANIMATIC THAT IS THIS GOOD IN SO LITTLE TIME THIS IS INSANE

and now grian and scar couldn't be farther apart, barely interacting at all and grian is all a l o n e and im :') sobbing

I love this so much!

OMG YOU MADE ANOTHER DESERT DUO PMV !! your art is so pretty :D ITS SO COOL

I absolutely LOVE your character designes! The poses, the angles, the colours, the shading, the detail, EVERYTHING IS SO GOOD I absolutely loved scar’s bucket clutch and the warden’s shrieks! The emotion is just AAH IM SQUEALING ITS JUST SO GOOD

This is so underrated, like, IM IN TEARS AND GRINNING LIKE A MANIC. THIS IS AMAZING.

Ah, another animation that drives home how incredibly painful it would be to get killed by SOUND and I CANNOT get enough of this stuff /pos /pos /pos

AAAA THIS IS INCREDIBLE !!! (plus the song choice... /pos)

I love how you have the winners with a crown at the end of each life series animatic ❤

Their last death is so heartbreaking because of how they were both completely alone when it happened 😭 Like for their other deaths at least they were both there for each other but for their last death they were both alone

Ima be honest I love how In double life grian and scar were paired it was so iconic? I can’t even think of a word

I'm fucking sobbing ack Whats with desertduo stuff making me sob this soo good man 💗💗💗💗💗💗

I LOVE THIS SO SO MUCH OMG

YES I LOVE THIS

THIS IS SO INCREDIBLEEEE AAAAA my friend cas had to deal w me sending almost every frame to them and freaking out over how much i love this animatic this is so goooooddddddd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is so polished i love this sm

i was not expecting to sob violently today and yet here we are please never stop making videos

I just found out about dessert duo and I feel like it's the saddest one I've seen? I'm scared honestly- maybe I should go watch double life lol

Whoa! Another amazing limited life animatic! Your art style every time, it’s eye candy!

Sobbing 😭

this is so good! your style is gorgeous

YEAAAAH DESERT DUOOOO

THIS IS SO PRETTY AND COOL your artstyle is everything AND THE WAY U DRAW THEM AND THE SONG CHOICE IM SO AKSDKAJIFHUEFHUOEWFHOWEF i love this so so much :D

I really love the song choice simply because I'm pretty sure it was also used in a Sans and Papyrus AMV and that's kinda how I view Scar and Grian (so close they seem like brothers). edit: It was, in fact, used in said AMV, and the AMV is by Starimation

WAIT THIS IS SO GOOD OMG ❤❤❤

I found it a nice touch how when they finally lose that last life, their eyes are just gray and empty.

Holy crack that’s so cool!!! How do you make these so fast???

This is probably one of my favorite PMVs ever! I love your art style so much and the way you draw all the characters, their designs are perfect

The ending hit me right in the feels fr 🥹 Your art style is so amazing!!

THIS IS AMAZING

Grian's wings being burnt/skeletal in his red life was such a good touch aaaaaa

My designs have his wings kinda, rotting away because of their zombie death, and then the explosion finishing off what's left. But I didn't get a chance to show his yellow design in this one at all T^T

Okay this is so amazing! Grain and scar are the best duo

This makes me so, so incredibly emotional. It clearly illustrates their dynamic, all of the complexities and pain within it, in the most beautiful way. Thank you so much for creating and sharing this art.

I HAVE WATCHED THIS SO MANY TIMES. I DREAM ABOUT THIS ANIMATIC. I PUT THE SONG ON MY SPOTIFY PLAYLIST. THIS ANIMATIC IS MY ROMAN EMPIRE. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

OMGSSS I LOVE THIS SO MUCH HOLY, your art is sooo scrumptious im eating it and running away /pos !!!
