why Deltarune didn't have the same level of groundbreaking hype as Silksong when their circustances are so similar?
deltarune isn't really a game, its just a story with some mechanics around it to present the story
>>719715942Toby would regularly update people on the development of the game via his newsletter; fans of Silksong have been in the dark for years.Also you should phrase it "Why didn't Deltarune", not "why Deltarune didn't", OP
Because Deltarune shadowdropped 7 years ago and was regularly updated every quarter while Silksong got announced in 2019 and had COMPLETE FUCKING SILENCE until literally 2 weeks ago
>>719715942Deltarune release was two chapters in the middle of the story, and Deltarune gets consistent newsletters about the game. Team Cherry was radio silent for seven years. Even as a Deltashill i can fully admit the situations aren't comparable at all and shouldn't be. Silksong is a much bigger release. Maaaybe try again when all that's left for Deltarune is chapter 7 and everybody is waiting to learn wtf is up with WD Gaster after 15 years of ARG teasing.
we didn't have fake teases of Deltarune chapter 3 every single event and year for over 5 years with multiple large companies suggesting it was coming out any day now
>>719715942It did
>>719715942It’s not finished. Expect a hype cycle whenever a new chapter releases.
>>719716075I didn't even notice he said it the other way around until you mentioned it. don't be so pedantic
Don't forget, Im with you in the dark
>>719715942Delta rune isn't even finished and silk song is
as someone who likes hollow knight and not deltarune, the deltarune fanbase, artstyle, character design and everything surrounding it is a major turn off. it seems like a celebration of mental illness, whereas hollow knight is just a fun bug game.
>>719717098I like them both
>>719717098I'm seeing retards on this very site claiming they were postponing suicides and practically acting like hyperventilating redditors over Silksong. I fail to see the difference between the two fanbases.
Despite the absolutely MASSIVE zoomer shill campaign these last few weeks, Silksong never had a fraction of the threads that Deltaruna had. Shillsong might be more popular on heckin' Reddit or Twatter, I don't know or care, but here, it's been way more Deltarune.
>>719717098If you think team cherry aren't about as woke as Toby Fox then you're naive desu.
>>719715942normal metroidvania vs quirky indie story-heavy earthbound-inspired RPG about bullied kids, lesbians and meta elements
>>719717226Based video game enjoyer
Silksong is a complete game and you don't need to be a massive HK fan to be hyped for it. Deltarune still has a large core fanbase but everyone else stopped caring a long time ago until it's actually finished.
>>719715942It was there, there's just a janny with a hateboner for Deltarune so threads for it were nuked after 3 days of discussion.
>>719717241Faggot
>>719715942We did this song and dance three times>one for SURVEY_PROGRAM shadow drop>one for Chapter 2 shadow drop>one for Chapters 3 + 4 (which was announced ahead of time in a direct)and we have a confirmed date for Chapter 5 nowcompared to Silksong which was 8 years of nothing iirc
>>719715995Retard>>719715942Just like everyone said, Deltarune had a shorter waiting time period (half of Silksong's) and got updates through newsletters on what to expect for later chapters, meanwhile, all Team Cherry did was just inform us that the game isn't canceled
>>719718698I'd rather have 8 years of nothing then a finished game than being drip fed it in unsatisfying bite sized chunks
>>719717098Theres a gay story in HK and it's a pretty important part of the lore
Deltatroon is a "game" for mentally ill trannies so obviously it's not going to be as successful as Silksong.
>>719717262I don't give a shit if they're the most woke people in the entire world as long as they make a good game and don't shoehorn their woke into the game. So far, they've accomplished that, which makes them better and more self-aware people than 99% of that ilk.
Silksong got this close to become a new generation's Half Life 3
Okay, but here's the real question.Shouldn't the normal happening be that the game gets completely forgotten after nearly a decade of nothing? Instead the hype and expectation kept going and building up even more and more as more time passed. No "oh, it's vaporware2, no "oh, it's never gonna come out who cares".What caused that? Why did the balloon kept getting bigger instead of smaller?
>>719715942>Ch. 1: 2018>Ch. 2: 2021>Ch. 3+4: 2025>Ch. 5: 2026?This release schedule destroys all the hype.
>>719715942Because it's a vastly inferior genre of gameAlso mad troon vibes
>>719715942Deltarune is being released in chunks and Silksong is being released in full. I think Deltarune's hype has remained at a very respectable level despite this.
deltarune isn't even out yet, most people lose interest in it the second they learn it's not even completed
>>719722108
>>719724149>Ch. 5: 2026?lollmao evenand remember this is a 7 chapter storythats what kills deltarune for me, and cements toby as a lazy fuck instead of a good gamemaker
>>719715942Why is /v/ so obsessed with slop?I do not want to hear about either of those games.
>>719727061>folk
>>719721845>I saw someone say "deltatroon" and I burst out laughing like we cannot be serious here
>>719715942Silksong is astroturfed by a dozen schizos on reddit that have been mindbroken by Ai generated news leaks, and barely anyone actually cares about hollow knight or considers it iconic.
>>719717098if you don't like celebrating mental illness i'm curious why you post here
>>719715942Because Deltarune isnt the masterpiece that Undertale was. And you could see it for yourself with each new chapter. Meanwhile everything points to Silksong being the Breath of the Wild of for indie games
>>719717098Agreed.
I haven't played it but everything I've seen regarding Deltarune paints it as the gayest piece of media that has ever existed including actual gay porn
>>719715942This little scene spawned a shitton of ''greek mythology'' fanarts and they're still coming, if Toby does it right, it has the potential to become the Sans moment in the futureUntil DR development is finally complete, it relies on moments like these for now.are people trying to start fandom wars? lemao
>>719715942Because the dev is a lazyass unlike TC
>>719717098As anti woke faggot who shits on kingdom come 2, i can tell while fandom is cancerous with troons, the game itself is pretty good. Like western furry version of Persona 4 or Chrono Trigger. You have a main character ans bunch of waifus who are decently written
>>719715942Based community with a few fags vs a community saturated by fags
>>719715942staggered release. chapter 2-7 as the intended release would've been big. 1-7 shadowdrop especially so.
>>719730768>spoilerNot really, the shazam discords are desperately trying to prevent another reaming.
No staying power
>>719715942Episodic release + extremely low effort graphics will do that. The only thing deltarune does exceptionally is the music
>>719717098Fpbp
>>719715942I'm so excited for Deltarune to finish
>>719737991I've literally never heard a DR track. Post me one?All I like from Undertail is Bonetrousle
>>719715942silksong is a game, deltarune is a collection of minigames with some tumblr story and art
Silk Song paid for ad space and Deltarune has basically been banned since it came out and the fagmins even tried to sabotage people trying to discuss the game by inviting /vg/ over to turn it into a general (Generals don't discuss games)
>>719715942It's way too gay, has bad art, and Kris isn't a defined character like Hornet is.
>>719715942Deltarune would have unironically probably had a similar scenario to it if only it wasn't episodic.
>>719715942Deltarune is also pretty huge, easily the second biggest indie release this year. But you don't have to be an autistic ragebaiter to know that Silksong is a much bigger and better game in terms of content and gameplay quality, and it's also the entire game.If Deltarune released with all 7 chapters this year, the hype would have been comparable to Silksong's, maybe even higher.
>>719743072https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qD-iZuAoODs
>>719721845No there isn't.
As much as I dump on HK, it’s at least a completely made game. The Toby Fox games are just plain dogshit.
>>719744428He's probably referring to that flower quest, but it's not important to the game at all and it wasn't even made by Team Cherry but by some chink Kickstarter backer.
>>719715942Infested with furfags. Whilst the bugfags are only bugfags as a joke
>>719715942Because it is dogshit for discord trannies and the kids they groomAlso not a game
>>719715942Deltarune isn't out.
>>719715942>Deltatroon>Video gamePick one, and only one.
HK/SS are only talked about because of "dark souls of metroidvanias" and "silksong release in 2 more weeks, this time for sure" articlesHollow Knight has 15mil sales across all platforms, and Undertale has 30mil.
>>719715942toby fox is a faggot making a trendTeam Cherry is making high quality games.
>>719749262This. It's essentially not really a game. It's some faggot storybook
undertale is ultimately niche despite what you see on your circles of the internet. it’s natural autismo hyperfixation catnip but it has no sauce.hollow knight is Cool, finessed, and has massive crossover appeal. simple as
>>719743353 Nah, you’re coping hard. Silksong looks like it’s gonna be Hornet’s 30-hour movement tech showcase with an artbook attached, while Deltarune is at least trying to do something different with its gameplay structure and story pacing. Calling it "tumblr art" is peak 2015 insult, get with the times. At least DR has music people actually remember a week after they play the demo.
>>719752306Well said anon.>90s kid nodding in acknowledgement.gif
>>719715942deltarune is just something twitter troons circlejerk around. nobody actually likes it
I have absolutely no interest in Shillow Knight
>>719733159>Like western furry version of Persona 4 or Chrono Trigger. You have a main character ans bunch of waifus who are decently writtenYou just convinced me to never touch this game, thanks
>>719715942Steam's servers exploded when Deltarune chapter 3 released. I bet they will explode for Silksong, too.
>>719716561somebody has to teach the fucking ESLs around here
>>719717098
>>719715942Deltarune will be talked about a decade from now like Undertale still isSilksong will be forgotten in 1-2 months at MAX
>>719756873Unless the ending he dreamt up is actually so shit it'll retroactively bury Undertale
>>719756873The utter DELUSION lmao
I played Undertale and had absolutely no desire to play a second one lol.I was as impressed with it as I was Oneshot (I wasn't)
>>719715942MoistCritical doesn’t care about Deltarune
>>719756873>Deltarune will be talked about a decade from nowYeah no shit, because it still won't be finished.

>>719717098this desu. Deltarune is just gay Tumblr shit continued on into current year.
>>719715942At no point has there ever been any doubt that Deltarune will be released
I like Deltarune but fucking DESPISE this piecemeal shit Toby is doing.
Because deltatroon is homosexuality done so hard it's inverted it's genitals, and Hollow Knight is some good old fashioned, handcrafted epic storytelling, but bug sized. Tony hit gold with Undertale, then proceeded to dilute it with the base metals of his fan base.
>>719759049nobody talks about hollow knight, except in the context of silksong not being released
Can we clown on Silksong one last time before it drops?
>>719752306>undertale is ultimately nichelolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90x6dS5AtjE
>>719752306>Undertale is ultimately niche>unlike Hollow Knight,
>>719761946>Deltarune is somehow gayer than Undertale>Gayer than a game where you wingman two homosexual couplesDeltarune has actually healthy straight relationships and the one lesbian "ship" is expressly shown to be a childish infatuation with a "bad girl" archetype. I hate homosexuality in stories and games and I found Deltarune to be a breath of fresh air.>>719762747They didn't even use any sound effects from Undertale. What a lazy show.
>>719715942the janitor's on vacation, you don't need to hide deltathreads right now
>>719717226NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>719761797ThisWhat the fuck was he thinking
>>719715995When the first post is the best post
>>719744923Based
>>719715942It did. Do you not remember the past 3 years of schizophrenia the fandom descended into during the WAIT, or the constant Deltarune threads on the board that are still going even now, or the wars on wplace?
>>719715942Deltarune is exclusively for autistic furfags.
>>719715942I guess you weren't there when people were freaking out over the switch 2 announcement only for everyone to also say "FUCK YOU RANDY" immediately right after during the Borderlands 4 ad. It was really bizarre how everyone had the same reaction.
>>719715942no one likes troons except for other troons and they make up like .0003% of the population so you go figure
>>719765679To be fair, what else would you say to Randy Pitchford?
>>719715942Toby killed the game by making it episodic. He should have stuck to what he said he was going to do and wait for the game to be done.
>>719765679Borderlands has gotten progressively worse since the first one and it surprises you at all that in the current day where you can't even play borderlands 1 without potentially downloading invasive spyware that people dislike Randy "I added a gold chest to force people to follow me on Twitter" Pitchford
>>719717098I had no reference for deltarune. Didn't play undertale and it came out during the era of my life where I stopped playing games for a bit (2014-2016 Fuck, games were so shit in that era. I didn't quit out of spite but looking back no wonder I did quit). I never participated in tumblr culture or webcomic culture. All I knew was hearing megalovania and I think hopes and dreams or whatever the fuck that song is called because I listened to silvagunner occasionally.Anyways a streamer I watched played deltarune on/near launch and I was baffled. I just didn't get it at all. I didn't find the poorly drawn characters attractive in any way. The writing did nothing for me positively or negatively. It was such a nothingburger and I couldn't understand the reaction it was receiving. I still don't get it. I still don't give a shit about any of the characters, world, or lore in any capacity. I guess spamton is cool, but lolsorandumb joker characters aren't real characters, it's literally just a gag. I guess that was a well executed gag character so I'll give Toby his roses there.
>>719767075>Anyways a streamer I watched
>>719767405Reminder that Toby ran a twitter poll, and like half the people that liked Undertale admitted to just watching someone else play it. Which means a lot when you know how many people DID play it
>>719767075My story was the exact opposite. I hated Undertale without even trying it since its release, then I watched a stream last year and got hooked.
>>719767000I dunno, I liked the environments and classes in 2 and pre-sequel. I assumed at least someone would be like 'oh, cool, another borderlands' instead of everyone genuinely hating it. I mean, I got over it after 3 when every female was a girl boss and the only guy you take quests from was a joke. Although as a guilty pleasure I do kinda like "Hey super fan!".
>>719755365Explain yourself what didn't you like about it.
>>719767485posted it again award
>>719769916What exactly is this supposed to prove?
>>719770113that the faggot anon has been pushing made up shit with no proof for a while now
>>719770371A. I think you're mentally ill, multiple people can say the same shit on 4chanB. If you look at the thread from last month in your archive screenshot someone posted the poll results and some old memes from 2017
Hey guys did you know that ralsei is based on a dead kid and this is 100% true?
>>719770472No such poll exists, faggot-kun, otherwise you would've actually posted it by now instead of throwing "dude trust me" like every other time you've done it
>>719770762That's not based at all.
>>719770902Nigga it's in the thread of one of the archived posts you just postedYou're just retarded and a schizo lmao
>>719715942>why Deltarune didn't It's WHY DIDN'T DELTARUNE. STOP MAKING THIS RETARDED FUCKING MISTAKE.
>>719771163And was Toby the one who posted it?
>>719770762Hey guys did you know that
>>719715942Becuae it only attracted trannies.Silksong attracted trannies and Normies.
>>719771262>So you have a poll but is Toby really the person who posted itIt might not have even been the first time it was asked according to this post from 2016.Image isn't archived.
>>719715942Because Deltatroon is gay and faggy while Silksong is kino. Also you are either ESL or under-age.
>>719771486Well, congratsYou have provided a proof, but a very old oneAlthough Deltarune may have higher number of players since no notable eceleb aside from Joel have made videos about new chapters
>>719771269RiP in Piss one of the realest niggas on this website.Someone get the sad mario picture out
>>719771813It was true from the get go, you're just a schizo lmao
>>719715942>same level of groundbreaking hypeChina is funding this mediocre metroidvania fuckfest and always was. That's why. I'm so glad they will continue wasting money into economic collapse for the CCP (a Jewish controlled org)
>>719715995don't matter how much you hate it this is actually true
>>719771878Well, congratulations.You just proved more Undertale fans play video games unlike /v/. What's the next step in your master plan?
>>719772287I don't know laugh at you for thinking it's not a ridiculous double standard of evidence that several years of a claim being made is proof of a single person running gay ops, while being said person running gay ops?
>>719772505Someone get this hothead outta here
>>719770762Also apparently in the same thread where the poll was there's maybe proof of this claim I don't know how to take screenshots on a phone
>>719772287Crashing this thread... with NO SURVIVORS!
I forgot about Baneposting
>>719715942This is because 41% of Deltatroon's fanbase has died since release.
>>719717226This man... he's out of control.
DEER SEXO
>>719773397Worst deer in the family.Second worst girl in the game (after Whoriel).Second biggest cuck in the franchise (after Chara).
>>719715942Because no one cares about trannycoded games like deltarune outside from trannies, which i remind are just a vocal minority inside the internet because they are shut-in freaks who are ashamed of showing themselves in public
>>719773659How the fuck is she chugging that?
>>719717226NO YOU DON'T IDORT
>>719752885oh no, he hit the bullseye this hard? damn.
>>719715942If Deltarune released all 7 chapters at once without Toby informing anyone about the game, it would've been even bigger than SS.
>>719717241>trailer got less than 5 mil viewsLmao it's nothingburger.
Deltarune was so not popular that tranny janny had to take days off at his McJob so he could browse /v/ 24 hours a day killing off every thread that remotely reminded him of Deltarune, and despite of this, as soon as he turns his back there's another Deltarune thread reaching bump limit. The only thing that changed since release is that threads reach page 11 at 550 posts instead of 700.
>>719775669Based janny
undertale was pretty good, but deltatroon kinda ruined the whole mythos for me so farit's like watered down homestuck
