How to:

1. Take control of the camera with mouse.

2. Rapidly move your mouse in small circles. It should work after few times.

That's it.

Makes me wonder whether it was intentional or just a leftover from PS4 version, due to DS4's touchpad. Well anyway, here it is. Hopefully they won't remove it in the future.

And a video.

Had to use the mouse, some places seem to imply you can do it with the controller but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore? Maybe it was patched because people did it on accident.

I highly recommend that you pet your pod very often. You will get a nice little dialogue interaction with the pod and I really want more people to see it. You can do it with 2B, A2, and 9S. Pod takes the pledge.

with far to remove mouse from appearing in game: set hide when not moved after 0.00 seconds so it won't ever show up and ruin the view
