Got any hopes and dreams(or despair and nightmares) about Deltarune's Chapter 6?

im mad theres only 3 save files because now it feels like aborting the weird route before berdly (for the twistedsword), aborting the route at the equip scene, aborting the route at the lake, and obviously proceeding into the lake will all have different ramifications going forward potentially. also wondering whatll happen if noelle joins you in chapter 6 and you put the thorn ring back on her at that point instead of making the twistedsword...

Absolute Power Route.
-Aborted Genocide (thorn ring) + Aborted Pacifist (crystal)
-Every power item collected
-All equipped to Chriissss, sorry Kris.
Kris Solo's the final secret boss on his own as the ultimate display of dominance.
...And this is somehow the best outcome.

The 2 main variables are "who opened the fountain" and "what is their relationship"
I think it isn't really about living or dead as it's blatantly following an animist logic.

>>741930239
Normal and Aborted play 90% the same with minor variations mostly of something seeming more off with Noelle at the beginning.

The last 10% of Normal and Aborted will deviate as hard as Weird and Normal did in 5

I no longer think this game will have a nice "Pacifist" style ending like Undertale did. No Asriel showing up at the end, he's probably gone already.

Am i the only one who fun Chapter 5 to be the worst? even the new battle theme get dunked on by ruder buster lmao

It got less iconic themes, some of the characters are pretty nice (aqua, yellow) but ultimately it felt to "fast paced" and the dialogue really felt more generic than ch 2/3/4. Very sluggish and weirdly paced, its the longest one too

That noelle obsession is insane
>>
>>741935982
A lot of people felt it was underwhelming. Some even feel it might have been written by Toby's team rather than himself.
>>
>>741935982
It's definitely the most divisive chapter by far. I think it's the weakest as well. Love the gameplay aspects though personally.
>>
>>741936152

Music wise, imo it only got 5-6 iconic tracks compared to the 15-18 ones of the older chapters. The remix were very bad (the new rude buster was pretty trash compared to ruder buster, or even vapor)

Writing wise, it felt like a badly placed filler, like all the tension is gone for shipping sake. Aqua and yellow were pretty funny but the rest felt forced screentime and a drag. They overdid it with flowerly his theme isn't good and only few of his line are actually good (compared to queen, tenna or gerson)

Gameplay wise its alright but the final boss is such a drag that they had to nerf it or you would have to change your layout due to how annoying switching phase is
>>
>>741935982
You're not. It felt stretched. The MMZ gameplay was shallow. The dark world felt like a fangame with how self referential it was. The secret boss being a joke was strange for an element very tied to the main plot. It felt very weird. Flowery and weird route were kino, but so much of the chapter was thoughtless
>>
>>741936152
It genuinely felt like a fucking fangame instead of Deltarune itself

I'm honestly doubting whether Toby knows what he's doing with this one. Chapter 5 was such ass that I think he just did all the theorybaiting mysterybox cliffhanger bullshit to sucker me out of my money, and now that he has it he doesn't have to pretend to make a good game anymore. I was here since SURVEY_PROGRAM back in 2018, and this one chapter has me on my knees. Is it over?
>>
>>741936925
It’s over until chapter 6 drops then everyone will conveniently mysteriously magically be around to give Toblerone one last chance
>>
I thought pretty much everything in the dark world was really fun the netskies and floradinns had a ton of good bits, the main flowers were mostly really enjoyable and I liked that they all actually had each others' backs and power of friendship you in the final boss
But god damn Susie got hit with the retard stick and the whole fucking thing was a Kris humiliation ritual what the fuck was up with that
>>
>>741930239
Why are you still doing this to yourself? You already know the game will continue being dogshit until the very end.
>>
>>741936995
Well I mean yeah, I'm deep in sunk cost fallacy, anon. Chapter 6 could be Toby taking a diarrhea dump in my ear and I'd still play chapter 7 just to see whatever this fever dream ending was, that it inspired a decade of work and an entire game before it

Ch 5 has a decent "slow chapter but the next 2 will be full speed" cope
Still feels a bit like a weaker ch 3 to me as it follows its beats and the plants being humans but not really that happen to have the same soul attacks as humans from undertale is just strange to the point I wondered if human ashes were fertilizing those plants like how gerson's ashes were used to fake world revive him. This is despite humans being different
But like I still don't get what's special about a human as even the whole soul possession deal isn't unique to Kris.

>>741938084
Because Deltarune has nothing to do with timelooping? If we were talking about Kris and whether they remember each save and load, MAYBE you could argue that's the timeloop story, just that we're the timeloop. But Noelle? Come on. She has shown no signs of this.
>>
>>741938198
unironically yes, you have to be braindead if you are playing this game for the rpg mechanics, or i guess now the 2d platforming mechanics. It would ensure the game is actually finished before the end of the decade

>you have to be braindead to play a game for the gameplay
This is /v/ in 2026.
>>
>>741930239
no, because i know what happened during the writing process.
somehow probably because toby fucking told her somewhere omori had effectively the same twist as deltarune. kris was a little shitter and killed dess for stealing big brother's attention, asriel helped cover it up and yeeted her corpse into a dark world because he's schizo and thinks dark worlds can resurrect people

from chapter 5 onwards, it's been rewritten to something else entirely, the weird route was supposed to just be you, the player doing some fucked shit to noelle basically making kris an unapologetic sadist who deserves whatever he gets where normal route would provide some redemption for kris by making them a friendly person thanks to (You) and coming out of their shell.

chapters 5-7 are basically having writing done by a team, which has a couple really fucking stupid troons on it - tobias only really cares that his AoT reference ending where asriel is basically eren, coming back from college a deranged edgelord ready to nuke everyone happens and whatever plot about dess and kris and noelle is pretty much 100% getting reworked into something more retarded

Not 'a' game. Deltarune specifically. No one cares about the gameplay in Deltarune, it's just the necessary vector to tell the story.

Did I stutter? The gameplay is the most serviceable 5/10 shit ever, the only reason anyone is here is for the story and music. Do you really think people were hyped about the new bullet patterns and equipment in this chapter, or learning more about the characters and plot? The gameplay is merely a medium to tell the story because Toby thinks he's above making a webcomic

How ironic if true
I mean, there's no memorable characters or with staying power as tenna. Aqua is cute, but that's literally it. You can find better, less bland options of magical girls than mew mew out there. Flowery is just a generic fujo bait you probably have seen countless times already and to make it worse, there's no assigned human male you can ship him with, tenna got a rise because people ship him with spamton. Everyone feels rather derivative.

I think he's 100% in the know about whatever the fuck is going on (no idea about which side if any he's trying to help) and knows that he'll need it later for some reason.

Accompanying wild guess: He's on his time loop bullshit (maybe whatever goes on in deltarune is what gives him the meta-knowledge for undertale?) but can't perfectly remember things and needs a visual aid of who to help/hinder for the next go-round.

Also has he or anyone else ever mentioned his brother? If not I'd imagine Kris asking out of nowhere set off some major alarm bells for him.

nta and I get why people dislike chapter 5 but I dunno, I like the more lighthearted stuff. I loved Undertale and thought it nailed the mix between casual fun and more serious elements and with Deltarune chapter 2 is still my favorite which to me feels like the closest to chapter 5 in tone.
I think having the last four chapters of Deltarune all be super serious in tone would get old fast. This chapter probably would have been better received if it was released along 3 and 4.

You fucking idiot, this is what is called narrative momentum. The game set up the main antagonist at the end of chapter 3 and kept escalating the stakes in chapter 4 between the Prophecy, the common appearances of the Knight and even getting to fight a Titan, only to slow everything down again? That's just shit pacing. You're a fucking idiot. Don't write, you'd be terrible at it.

Chapter 7 isn't the end of the game, retard. Anyone who thinks it is at this point is fucking stupid. Chapter 7 is the end of "DELTA RUNE" and you're going to keep playing to find a way to avoid that end, which is where it's going to get weird.

fair point but this theoretical save file wouldave only reached the point of getting the thorn ring before stopping, as fighting berdly is the point of no return regarding keeping the ring in your inventory, so the route would be aborted before any true "weird route shenanigans" could be locked in, so she might just view the whole thing as a bad dream just as she assumed in the weird route hospital scene, but that invites questions about the shit will go down in bringing noelle to castle town in chapter 6, which already doesnt seem like its going to go well based on noelles current situation with rudy, though she doesnt have cold turkey trauma in this save file so maybe there wont be enough of a meaningful difference, but i still think just equipping it is on the table since she'd be "new to it all" again and not aggressively against kris or viewing it as a prank like she might with the context of aborting at a point like the equip scene

Getting to Pink kinda sucks desu. Pink sucks. Jevil's encounter is pretty simple - go find 3 key pieces, get them repaired by the hammer guy, go fight Jevil.

Spamton's encounter is similar, but the teacup mechanic from previous parts of the chapter is preventing you from simply returning from the mansion basement to deliver the disk. It's a good obstacle to put in the way to judge the player's skill up to this point.

The Mantle requires the player to be good enough at the NES boards to complete all of them with a high score, and see the scene where Tenna has to stop Kris' exploration before they start to find unused assets from the MANTLE game. As a reward, the player is given a hefty amount of insight on the weird route via the ensuing SWORD boards AND is pushed to follow through with at least one of the chapter's actual threats.

Gerson requires the player to find parts of a piano recital, then play parts of that recital on a piano found elsewhere, just like the big piano that Kris plays at the top of the first sanctuary. It's not as convoluted as the Mantle shenanigans, since it's a little more involved in the story and Susie's character development, but it's fun nonetheless.

And then Pink ruins the entire pattern. The P$ aren't exclusively available from platforming challenges, even if the majority of them require some involvement with the 2D space to be cut down. There's no hideously difficult 2D section where Kris has to run along a huge stretch with a bunch of incredibly tightly-timed jumps, or a little section with a unique miniboss that actually puts up a fight in 2D mode. The single notable pink coin room I can think of involved Shinobeetles tossing shurikens from the background into the foreground, which was really easy and only gets you a single P$. What the fuck happened with this chapter? Did Toby just let his team handle it?

It’s interesting to me that Sans (Forma de UT) said he’s only seen it snow badly once, like Deltarune exists in some odd limbo between being a simulation and being real

>no vocal in fight, you can't even read lyrics due to how hard and annoying the fight is

Tenna was already meh but he had a crazy ass sprite, cool af animation and crazy good themes. This one has a generic theme, generic voice clips. Everyone just wanted to see the fucking flower, aqua yellow seth everyone BUT flowery. Its just that his interaction with ralsei are funny BECAUSE ralsei became a hater thats it
>>
I think Noelle needed at least other carnage in a dark world, it feelt very rushed her transformation in a full psycho for a just a thing that she barely remembers as a dream

This schizo game is fascinating when you've only played chapter 1, but when the rest of it is out how the fuck are you actually SUPPOSED to play it?
Like undertale technically had 30 different endings, but it was easy just to do neutral pacifist and genocide, are you supposed to be running all the routes at the dame time in deltarune? Toby sure is giving you enough time to do it between chapter releases.

>Getting to Pink kinda sucks desu.
getting to pink was really easy because i'm not dogshit at platformers and the pink coins were about as hard as finding secret coins in a mario level. i had already bought the key before i even got to the door, which i found by accident

>>741940247
Fire ralsei is instrumental to the prophecy
>>
>>741940274
undertale just had flavor text variation based on kill/spare, this is like saying bioshock 2 had a lot of endings due to being able to kill or spare the named NPCs in the different areas and that influencing the ending of that game.

It feels like a lot of people "discussing" the game just saw either the gay shit in a toby fox game of all places? who could have ever guessed? or that the ship they were hoping for didn't set sail and just stopped paying attention to or playing the game altogether before hopping on the internet to shit out half-formed opinions. The amount of people I've seen saying
>no the characters are acting different because the writing is shit and there's NO other reason NONE AT ALL AND IF YOU THINK SO YOU MUST BE AN ENEMY SHIPPER
has made me think that they must have not seen the ending or are just being willfully ignorant about what the story is implying for some reason. I hate to use the term "media literacy" but you're probably lacking it if you were paying attention at the end and thought the game wasn't trying to highlight how fucking delusional susie is becoming to maybe get you to re-contextualize her actions through the day.

Aside from that, while I liked it overall I wasn't too fond of how the movement of the overall plot could basically be summed up as
>confirmation of things that were already strongly hinted at and suspected and nothing more
>setup for next chapter

>>741940041
No.

I still can't get over how YIIK was ahead of its time. I will have to apologize.

I think chapter 5 is meant to make sure all players are on the same page before chapter 6.
A lot of the stuff that was outright stated in 5 was only hinted at in 4 or only known through ARG stuff which not everyone would be aware of.

This board is full of performative intellectuals either trying to sound smart by hyping up a disappointing chapter or just coping as a form of denial.
>The gang fought a Titan in the previous chapter, while Susie also saw a prophecy panel that shook her and Ralsei greatly, never brought up in the chapter
>The festival that had been hyped up for 7 years turned out to be a completely nothingburger and an excuse to shove 30 minutes of badly written yuritard slop
>Asgore didn't confirm anything we didn't already know
>Secret boss was a complete insult, shitting on all the previous serious ones
The only saving grace is the weird route, and while I'm disappointed that it lasted so little given how much time it took to arrive, I will wait until chapter 7 to say if it was worth it.
Suselle is hardly the biggest problem with this chapter, not to mention that most of the non-filler stuff of this chapter are all in the weird route.

I refuse to believe toby think his audience is that stupid. That or he is self aware that his writing skills aren't enough to make things clear (I wouldn't be surprised, since he clearly got tired of popular theories that were far away of the game's intent)

Oh, so I'm not the only one that smelled the Deltatraveler particles in the air. The face sprites, Susie's behavior, and *that* webm felt like someone else was at the wheel. I won't deny it looked pretty and had a few standout tracks, but DAMN Chapter 4 had way more Wow factor.
