Deltarune is now 8 years old. Has the WAIT for the full game been worth it for you? Is there anything else you wish was better about the game? How long do you think it will take for DELTARUNE to finish waiting?

Hi I'm the Side B Soul and I'm here to rape your game.
>>
>>4148005
>Has the WAIT for the full game been worth it for you?
I just wish the game was out before I started working full-time. I barely have time to play vidya, and if Toby just had his head straight about game dev and team management, the full game would've been out by now. Chapters 3-5 should've released in 2024, and the rest by 2026.
>Is there anything else you wish was better about the game?
I'm only now seeing why anons are dissing the episodic release of individual chapters now. There's been a lot of times where Toby just forgets about things established in a previous chapter that are either written off in the following one, or were eventually addressed in a patch.
>Susie's increased magic and BetterHeal stats from beating Gerson.
>The Mike minigames no longer being accessible in Chapter 5's castle town.
>Top Chef not giving out Spincakes in Chapter 4 on day one.
>The Chapter 3 egg being inaccessible if you got the Shadow Mantle prior to the Trip Ticket on day one.
>No "Chapter 3/4 All Stars," "Chapter 4 All Stars," "Graze Challenge 2," or any unique challenges from the Party Dojo.
>Pink not having any of the makings of a schizo boss until Toby dropped a dialogue patch tying her to FRIEND, giving new context to FRIEND, and alluding to the importance of the Man in the schizo boss side quests for the first time in over 7 years.
Nevermind a director, I think what Toby also needs is a bookkeeper for all the lesser shit outside of the main plot.
>How long do you think it will take for DELTARUNE to finish waiting?
I can see Chapter 7 & 7B releasing in 2028 is Chapter 6 manages to make the 2027 window. Prospective dates are:
>October 31, 2028: the 10th anniversary of Chapter 1 and (one day short of) the 20th anniversary of the Earthbound Halloween Hack.
>December 25th, 2028: parallels the first chapter's Halloween release by dropping on Christmas, allows ~2 more months of additional devwork and refinement, and loops back to Dess and 1225.

Dess doesn't seem all that connected to Vriska, outside of the pile of Vriska shoes in Dess's closet. All of the Dess = Vriska posting is just people expecting the worst from Toby.
The Knight and Jack Noir share visual similarities but don't seem to be playing the same role. The Knight is almost certainly a lightner and is playing along with the prophecy, while Jack is a really murderous NPC who's immense power is a deviation of the game's intended course. The Knight appears to be much more similar to the Masked Man from Mother 3.
So really a load of nothing. At least I enjoyed reading something that Toby enjoyed reading.

Dark fountains are created by stabbing an opening in the ground for the "darkness beneath the earth" to leak in. If you tried to opening a fountain on the 2nd floor of a building you'd just be stabbing the floor.

Isn't that pretty much every fountain? I doubt Susie managed to stab through the concrete foundation of the church, assuming it's a completely solid foundation in the first place, or does stabbing the floor in that case count because it's in direct contact with the concrete, which itself is in direct contact with the ground?

An interesting theory video I found today. Basically:
>In this scene, Asgore refers not to the difference between his light world and dark world hair color (the arm hair is the exact same color in both), but to the difference in color between this dark world and another, the one from THAT DAY
>An instance of the Prophecy has already happened, with Asriel being the Prince and December being the Girl, and maybe Kris was still the Cage
>The final tragedy was Dess going missing somehow to prevent the Roaring
>Now, Kris and Carol are trying to reenact the Prophecy to try to "dispute" the final tragedy
>Susie is supposed to be the Girl this time, and if she is sacrificed to prevent the Roaring, then maybe this will allow Dess to be found
>The Knight is either the same one in both cases, or is always the previous sacrifice, and the Prophecy is a cycle, which is why there is a religion around it
In my opinion, Asgore's arm hair being the same color is most likely an art error. And now that I type it out, the logic behind Susie being a sacrifice is kind of shaky, although I still like it a lot.

Yeah. I love Homestuck but I really wish people would quite spreading this "you need to read it to understand Deltarune!!!" horseshit. Same with people who incessantly compare Toby to Hussie. All of that shit comes from people who have never read Homestuck. They'll readily admit to that fact as well!

You can tell this theory is false because Toby Fox would never rip off a mainstream work like FFX. He would only ever steal plot elements from obscure 90s JRPGs released only in Japan on the Sega Genesis.

I'm telling you, Toby has gone dark until the chapter is content complete and only has localization, bugfixing, testing and porting left, we won't get any newsletter before that. Maybe if we're lucky we'll get one on December, telling us the chapter 5 is close to the post-production stage, then he'll make some posts on bluesky in the following months about progress on testing and such, there will be no newsletter until we get an announcement for a release date, which obviously will come in a Nintendo event, as Toby refuses to do it anywhere else.

In short, you're probably getting chapter 6 in June, so be ready to wait until then.
>>
>>4148184

Hometown Massacre makes sense to be geno again considering Deltarune makes a big point about nostalgia (and Side B got the flashback track a Chapter earlier) and Geno was the thing most people remember about Undertale.

And it's not like Side B hasn't already been genocides but again considering Chapter 2 exists.

>>4148190
That doesn't explain why the story needs to skip ahead. It explains why you personally want to. Because you think the game told you to get the shelter codes and not to get to chapter 7.

The shelter codes do matter. They don't matter in that it is your utmost priority to learn them and the game is laughing in your face by denying you them. They're the driver for the conflicts you will have the ability to resolve, those between the main party members and antagonists. Every story being stripped back to match how the game progresses would be a disaster for every game that wasn't incredibly terminally simple.

The evidence for cyclical prophecy theory is that the knight appeared before and dark worlds were opened before the prophecy says they both should've.
Jockington being a family name is the result of trying to make the theory work. Of course the things the theory is theorizing about don't have evidence yet. That's how theories work.

The theory is interesting but it's clearly not true. If it was, those joke panels wouldn't be introduced. Their purpose was very obviously to show the prophecy is comically accurate to current events. If there was a cycle they would be used to hint at that instead. It's fun fanfiction but none of these fags view theories the perspective of an author.

>>4148239
>Their purpose was very obviously to show the prophecy is comically accurate to current events.
And yet they're apparently inaccurate to the broadest strokes of current events. How do you resolve this if not with the prophecy being cyclical? It's just lying to Ralsei? Why couldn't it be flat out lying to us as well?

When confirmed with clear counter-evidence, theoryfags always go

>It's a red herring!

When red herrings are meant to distract us from the most obvious conclusion, not an idea only 10 guys in a basement know about. Carol being evil/knight is a red herring. Kris making an evil smile and cutting pie is a double red herring. Really obvious shit. That's what red herrings are for.

iirc the earlier books do a decent job at integrating the mystery of the year fairly well in between the school life stuff, it's not until the 5th book where they start becoming very melodramatic and angsty (due to jkr trying to keep the og readers engaged by aging the books with them)
deltarune on the other hand, has done a very poor job of integrating the mystery with its hijinks, to the point where actually plot relevant details are glossed over because the characters either refuse to acknowledge them or are too stupid to ask questions about it

Your idea of entertainment has been delusional this entire time. You are not the hero. You have never been the hero.

>>4148245
Why do people keep acting like we have exactly 0 questions answered and the game is holding literally everything back for the last couple of hours? Do you think "what's the deal with Darkners" wasn't a question, or do you think it didn't get answered?
>>
>>4148252
because that question was answered visually at the end of ch1
only mouthbreathing retards like susie failed to understand what darkners were until ch3 when ralsei had to outright spell it out for her

>>4148253
This is my point. It feels like people are doing the same shit with questions the plot has asked now, acting like we won't have any idea until it's spelled out explicitly.
>>
>>4148252
Toby put hints to answers, which everyone naturally knew about because of how much we like to spread these ideas. So when it gets fully revealed later, it's just seen as old news to the hardcore fans.
An actually good example of new information being given is in that update to chapter 5 that added new Pink dialogue about Friend. It changes everything, answers a couple questions we had, and brings up a few more, while also making us reevaluate certain character motivations or histories.
Asgore, and his "Incident" is literally nothing. We knew that he used to be a cop, and was involved with the Dark Worlds since arguably chapter 1.
>>
It's less that nothing's being answered, but more that we're reaching the point where the only mysteries left are the ones that are being backloaded for chapter 7 because of big narrative spoiler reasons, 7B because they're character context to reward players who go down that route, or simply won't be answered at all.
Backloading Flowey's identity and how he turned psycho into the endgame of Undertale was fine because the game wasn't really story heavy nor was story its largest focus, but Deltarune is very story heavy and the conflict, by nature of "what the hell is Kris doing all of this for beyond vague unspecified guilt and a vague unspecified promise, both of which related to THAT HORRIBLE DAY?", is going to make people want to figure out the answer, even if it's likely to be literally impossible until Toby spells it out during one of the 7 or 7B moments, much like how it was literally impossible to figure out how Asriel became Flowey until you read the True Lab logs.
>>
>>4148258
Yeah, I understand that Asgore doing nothing but vagueposting was bad and why. I don't understand people acting like literally 100% of the "reveals" in Deltarune have been that.
>>
>>4148255
they're not the same though
with ch1, it presented a question and gave a clear answer at the end: 'what are dark worlds/ darkners' - 'ordinary rooms with a dark fountain in them/ the objects in a room brought to life'
now we have more plot relevant questions, like who the knight is, what is kris' goal, what the final tragedy is, what is gaster trying to do, shit like that
we're no closer to any of those now than we were at the end of ch3, because the game has given nothing substantial for us to chew on
the closest is the knight, but as you probably know they're yet another shit flinging contest going on between everyone who believes their antlered character is the knight and everyone else is a dumb retard for thinking otherwise, all because we still know jack shit about who is apparently the main antagonist of the game 5/7 chapters in
>>
To put Asgore's vagueposting into perspective, he said so little about That Day we don't even know if it involved Dess. It's actually comical.
>>
"ohhh, that day, kris..." is one of my vocal stims

I imagine the ch7 Ralsei lederdump to Susie to be like this since she just keeps getting dumber.

>>4148259
This all sounds like a completely sensible opinion. I don't disagree with this. I only disagree with the idea that this is somehow making the game abject unplayable shit or whatever.
>>
>>4148260
because it's really more like 90%.
>>
>>4148259
Hot take: Flowey's creation makes no sense and breaks the rules of the setting. Souls don't work that way, so a new psuedo-soul concept had to be pulled out of Toby's ass to make it work.
>>
>>4148267
That's just schizos losing their minds over the WAIT because they refuse to stop obsessing over Deltarune despite the fact they have zero net benefit to continuing to fixate on it. They KNOW they won't get anywhere productive, but they continue anyway instead of turning their attention towards other medias, ideally complete medias that aren't also subject to waiting.
>>
Oh anon, that full flashback theme...
>>
All the sperging is CoL throwing his daily tantrums. If it bothers you it's best to ignore him.
>>
>>4148269
Flowey doesn't even have a soul. That's why he's incapable of feelings. It was Asriel's Essence that made him return. Determination is the power of De-Termination. The power to change fate and undo death and time.
>>
>>4148266
I would welcome a scene like this because it could be fucking hilarious and so we have confirmation that Susie is slow and developmentally stunted
>>
>>4148269
The whole point of Flowey is that he doesn't HAVE a soul though. He's a flower full of determination, and the determination mixed with Asriel's dust, his essence, and effectively infused him into that flower.
It doesn't break anything with soul rules, it's instead exploring what can be done with the physical remnants of a dead monster beyond the known culture of "spread their dust across their favorite thing."
Unless you mean "how the fuck did Flowey absorb everyone's souls without them dying for it", but at that point I'd chalk it up to him being God-level with the six human souls, much like how he was able to force-close/force-reboot your game in order to completely hijack it.
>>

>>4148261
I think it's an exaggeration to say we're no closer to understanding any of the characters or their goals two whole chapters later. We haven't gotten confirmation of what Kris's goal is, we still know more about Kris and can therefore make better guesses. You know?
>>
>>4148273
>>4148275
"essence" makes no sense and is the asspull I'm talking about. It makes no sense within the rules of the setting.
>>
>>4148278
Dust remembering the monster it used to be is hardly a leap when monsters already run on feelings.
>>
>>4148278
Why? Why does it make no sense that dust, a lingering physical remnant from a monster's magical body, is capable of carrying a dormant form of a monster's essence due to being formed FROM that monster's collapsing magical body?
>>
>Kris feels bad about a girl disappearing
>therefore he is guilt-tripped into starting the apocalypse

Is that why his goals are never explained? Because his motives are that stupid?
>>
>>4148279
>>4148280
Personality is stored in the soul, not the dust. That's explicitly what the soul is.
>>
>>4148281
Kris was promised Azzy would be brought into the simulation if he griefed gasters's fanfic
>>
>>4148281
We know the why, even if we don't know the details, we just don't know what he's hoping to accomplish by cooperating with the literal fucking ROARING KNIGHT, or even what Knight wants since it's been established it could've started a million Roarings in the time between its appearance/creation during THAT DAY and whenever it first created Card Kingdom.
>>
>>4148282
That's the ruse, you're led to believe the soul being the culmination of your being is true for ALL species, but it's only really for humans. Monsters have the culmination of their being contained in both soul and body, because their entire existence is an earnest projection of their fullest self. It's just that the soul is what provides the capacity to feel a full range of emotion.
>>
>>4148225
>Toby makes things sometimes that just sucks not because of meta narrative or anything
My favorite cope theory of all time was the prophecy psyop causing Susie to become a completely different person this chapter
No, it's just shitty writing
>>
>>4148286
Yep. It's clear that Susie x Noelle is 100% genuine. Toby actually likes that cringeworthy sappy bullshit.
>>
What are the funniest cope theories?
>>
>>4148269
He did a lot of stretches to make Undertale's plot work
See: the bullet pattern greeting cards explanation for why everyone attacks you on sight despite that never being referenced by anyone else in-game
>>
>>4148291
It's hilarious that Flowey's friendliness pellets explanation was actually correct in hindsight.
>>
Starting to think that the problems with Deltarune mostly stem from Mr. Toby Fox, who is good at characters and mediocre at plots, writing a story where plot comes first and characters second.
>>
>>4148291
Likewise he indirectly implied the surface world is actual hell considering seven different children across the many years all climbed the notorious "mountain you go to kill yourself" for the express purpose of killing themselves, and even though Frisk had no such suicidal intentions, she's still implied to be a victim of abandonment.
All so monsters returning to the surface can be implied to finally make things utopic, which could be seen as the least subtle pro-immigration message you've ever heard of, which really doesn't help you if you're schizophrenic and dogging on Toby for being pro-Israel, given you could very easily compare the commonality of "retards who can't stop killing people who aren't of their culture" between monsters and muslims.
Fancy that, both even start with M.
>>
>>4148297
But he supports Black Lives Matter, who's a front for funding Israeli terrorists.
>>
>>4148294
You mean he's good at writing jokes but can't write anything remotely serious
Undertale is written as a slice-of-life romp which he managed to make work (Undyne and Mettaton should be scary, but get treated as silly cartoon villains which actually fits right in somehow)
But he's still writing Deltarune the exact same way despite the overall plot being much more serious and realistic. Retconning King to be wacky and brushing Queen's horrible actions under the rug to make them silly just doesn't really work here
>>
>>4148297
>>4148298
Fuck, I don't know which one is CoL anymore.
>>
>>4148296
jesus fuck man get off of /pol/
he just wanted the story to end on a nice note even if realistically speaking humans would freak the fuck out and start killing the monsters all over again
it's a fairy tale ending, nothing more
>>
>>4148299
The Roaring Knight isn't being taken seriously by characters or narrative either, despite being the literal harbinger of the apocalypse, and the apocalypse being known as the "you get raped forever by Titans" event.
>>
Maybe I should make a new FemKris video just to see the cope people will come up with to explain Kris wanting to be festival queen.
>>
>>4148300
It's a hivemind.
>>
>>4148297
>Do not come onto my patch and ask me to promote
NOBODY DID THIS
>>
>>4148301
A fairy tale that says immigration is good, that it's OK that radicals are flooding into your world, killing your men, raping your women, and that your government is in full support of them and won't stop them because "that's sacrilege to their culture and religion."
>>
>>4148303
Please do.
>>
>>4148299
The overall plot is more serious and realistic in the light world. The dark worlds still behave as silly cartoonish romps, or at least operate on the ruleset of such in-universe. Like Undertale itself had the whole underground do.
>>
>>4148306
Yeah nigga.
>>
>>4148306
It doesn't say that shit.
>>
>>4148299
I don't think that's quite it because chapters 3 and 4 did a decent job at being serious when they wanted to be, it's just 5 that failed to follow up on it because Toby for whatever reason decided that he needed a fun lighthearted chapter after the point where shit has already started hitting the fan.
>>
>>4148303
>Kris wanting to be festival queen.
But that's trans Kris evidence. If Kris is a girl, why would Kris feel confused about choosing King or Queen?
>>
>>4148310
Bro, just LET the Vulkin help, LET it spew lava all over the place! That's just its culture, they're only bullet patterns! You don't wanna shit on her CULTURE when all she wants to do is be HELPFUL, do you? Are you some kind of BASTARD?
>>
>>4148312
No, it's either FemKris evidence or "Kris knows that Noelle wants to be queen because she's the girliest girl who ever girled, and because Kris doesn't give a damn about gender norms since THAT DAY hadn't happened yet to rape him into presenting as gender unknown, he decides HE wants to be queen to tease her."
>>
>>4148312
Kris isn't confused, though. The one confused is Susie, because Kris is currently identifying as nonbinary.
>>
>>4148315
>Kris is currently identifying as nonbinary.
Unconfirmed, nowhere in the game or from word of God is Kris confirmed to be nonbinary. In fact, no character who uses "they/them" is nonbinary, and in fact, xister, it's actually extremely chuddy of you to automatically assume that they/them = nonbinary when gender is such a bigger spectrum than "male, female, nonbinary."
>>
>>4148317
Susie is uncomfortable with placing her and Kris into a gendered dynamic. To me that only makes if she believes Kris is nonbinary. Susie herself doesn't mind taking on masculine roles, so she's clearly doing it for Kris's sake.
>>
>>4148279
the dust had little to do with it outside of being a base, i'd argue the photo had more to do with it than the dust
gerson was almost certainly resurrected because the knight had some kind of connection with him, and knew him well enough to create a version of him that was very similar to the actual person, if a little exaggerated in some aspects
it's why ralsei says that only very special fountains can do this, susie never knew gerson in life and tried to make a copy of a copy
>>
>>4148314
True.
Noelle was the confused one, not Kris. Kris wanted to be Queen, but Noelle (a boy back then) felt weird about choosing to be King. This is foreshadowed with "Noel Hollyday" as Noel was her deadname, only her last name was mispelled.
>>
>>4148318
Yeah, and she's just assuming Kris is nonbinary because no one's stated what Kris's gender is.
>>
It's always the authorities working against you man. Fucking Carol knows about the irradiated water and doesn't let Noelle drink from the tap while the rest of the town do. Also she throws a fit over Susie while she is the one who allowed her immigrant terrorist family in.
>>
>>4148312
nothing states that kris was confused, noelle only says that they couldn't agree who should be who
despite the copium from troons, even the faggiest little boy alive would want to be king in this scenario, hell some girls would prefer to be king because traditionally the kind has more power than the queen
the only way for kris to want to be queen is if kris is also a girl, and they were both arguing about who should be queen
>>
Ok but who the fuck won King and Queen of the festival this year?
>>
>>4148329
Jockington.
>>
>>4148330
The janitors back in my school knew how to clean bloodstains and couldn't speak english
>>
>>4148248
The current Knight is a phony like the one in Live a Live before Oersted.
>>
>>4148329
Jockington, because he's always won both King and Queen ever since he became the coolest kid in Hometown.
>>
>>4148254
Based but gotta add Frisk, Chara, Seth and Aqua sexo there too.
>>
>>4148333
I can't believe Alethea is the Lord of Dark!
>>
>>4148329
doesn't matter on the normal route, i doubt very many people are even aware that noelle and susie are a thing
iirc the only ones who do, not counting noelle and susie themselves, are: berdly, catti, kris, carol, rudy, and maybe sans
that's 8 votes at most, and depending on how you get kris do vote you can lower it down to 6
unless nobody else is voting and they win by default, i really do doubt susie and noelle would win without toby putting his finger on the scale (we all know he will)
>>
>>4148329
The royal guards, duh
>>
>>4148333
This, this is why no one takes it seriously, it's all to signal Kris is the real Knight, which is the only way "the Knight can only appear when the three heroes come together" can make sense while still adhering to the logic that the three heroes can't come together unless there's a Dark World by which for the Lonely Prince to meet The Cage and The Girl, because Kris covers both roles and nothing in the prophecy says you can only be one role.
Kris's knife has also been gradually blackening with each use, which is another big signal that he's Knight, because he's literally making with Blackened Knife.

Carol and Rudy

Humans also have essence, too. That's the entire deal with Chara, her essence was left in her body and reawakened by Frisk's determination and attaching itself to her like how Asriel’s essence attached itself to the golden flower.

Everything would reset back the very beginning of his life, he wouldn't remember a thing because he has neither the determination nor cognizance for it, and then many years later THAT DAY would play out all over again.

Right, which is why the Chara you raise in Genocide is nothing like the Chara from the past beyond surface-level similarities. You've taken this essence and used it to raise a demon, rather than a human in a new shell.

You should so that the video can trend and become the new xitter discourse.
>>
>>4148348
Speaking of Gaster, I miss the whimsy creepypasta stuff from Undertale related to him. The WR and egg rooms don't do justice because it's way too structured, sometimes I think the game is missing FUN events with random creepy stuff like the game resetting itself if you type something or secret stuff that randomly crash it or his gooner squad in their grey and fucked up not existing selves.

Actually, I think my pick is the cope that Kris is only pretending to be female to bully Noelle.
>>
>>4148340
We are the cage and Kris is the Knight.
>>
>>4148365
That Day, Triple Trucies, Knight and Shelter might as well be the same mystery because they're so intertwined. This is bloating the story a little bit to seem like there's more to answer than there actually is
>>
>>4148351
I mean yeah, Flowey was nothing like Asriel either.
>>4148352
Asriel’s essence was in Flowery’s light world form.
>>
>>4148370
All of Deltarune is the same mystery and it's GASTER
>>
>>4148368
Kris once pulled down their pants and put their penis behind the legs to show Noelle and she thought Kris is a girl ever since
>>
>>4148358
This but Frisk and Aqua's as well.
>>
>>4148368
She's both a girl and a boy to confuse Noelle.
>>
>>4148235
Whose shoes are those, anyway? December has hooves, and those look like regular sneakers.

>>4148358
This but with Kris and Clover instead.

This how I know Dess is mtf. No girl would have shoes this badly organized.
>>
>>4148376
I like the theory that they're for luck and the equivalent of horse shoes
>>
>>4148371
Yeah, but because Asriel was monster dust, he was originally very close to his original self when he first awoke as Flowey. Then he had his crisis over being an unfeeling thing, and eventually grew detached from it all when none of his original comforts were providing him anything. Then when he was given the emotions of almost every single monster in the Underground plus the six humans, once Frisk did a bunch of saving, he regained his emotions and sense of self for the remaining duration of his time as Asriel, as monster dust carries the culmination of a monster's being just as much as the soul.
Chara's essence comes from human remains, which carries none of the self, only memories and instinctual impressions, and neither of those are perfect.
>>
>>4148376
Those are deer shoes. They look the same as human shoes because the players wouldn't be able to identity them as shoes otherwise. Yes, the answer really is that simple.

Bro, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. This is a Suselle game.

Everyone who isn't a seething shiptard who NEEDS his preferred ship to be canon over Suselle understands that Suselle has 0% chance of crashing and burning solely because of the fact this ship has been built up for five entire years since it was more or less confirmed to happen in Chapter 2.
That much waiting, a relationship that people have waited so long for that they've grown up and experienced life in the meantime, just to say "lol no, it's not happening, you're retarded for thinking it would for all these years" is a bad play. Especially for a lesbian relationship, because then Toby can be criticized and cannibalized for queerbaiting.

I've thought of two visions for Deltarune's ending
The Hopeful one follows along the thematic thread Old Man left: just like his book, the final chapter was never written, waiting for the next generation to pick up the pen; just like Gaster said he wants to build a new future with us; and as a bonus, the 10th Undertale anniversary stream which reinforces the idea fans can keep writing stories for this world. What is more important than reaching the end, as Toby said? It's about going beyond the end, to instead of allowing a story to finish in a sad note, you continue it and deal with the consequences of the end to write something new and hopeful. That's what Chapter 7 would be about, a new future written by the white pen of hope after the Prophecy is finished. In this scenario the WR too wants to build a new story, but fundamentally rejecting the way the story normally finished with a more destructive outlook towards writing your own conclusions by wishing freedom at any cost.

The Hopeless one follows the notion Deltarune's story is truly about destiny that can't be changed. It lives by the Halloween Hack's philosophy of the illusion of choice in games, because even if there is a "new" Chapter 7, it is still a predetermined path given to the player by the developer. Therefore Chapter 7 is still the same chapter whether it's Side A or Side B, only with lesser differences . There is One Ending and it happens as it's written, but under different interpretations. I think this one while sadder, is more thematically fitting within the limitations of videogames, because it's not pretending to give you an option you're really free, and rugpulls both Normal and Weird Routes' illusions of choice.
>>
>>4148386
It's obvious to anyone with half a brain cell that it'll crash and burn in chapter 6 and reconcile in chapter 7
>>
>>4148395
that's what the thinking was going into ch5

>>4148395
I would argue there is a chance for it to blow up then get fixed all in the same chapter, but besides that I do think this is the most likely outcome.
>>
>>4148394
The way I see it, the "only one ending" will follow something akin to Halloween Hack's philosophy. The one ending is true, just like how Halloween Hack can ONLY end with Varik killing Andonuts. It's just that most ways just end the game right then and there, like how choosing to kill Andonuts without going into his Magicant provides an inherently unsatisfying ending, but the "true" path provides an actual epilogue gives perspective on how things wrap up for the characters in some shape or form, as well as one last conversation with Gaster before the credits roll.

Both Alphys and Undyne are chopped and their date is optional so Alphyne didn't achieve the wanted effect of owning the chuds enough. Kris will be cucked in further mandatory suselle scenes until this past error is rectified.

>>4148397
Was anyone even expecting a Suselle date in chapter 5?

people foolishly though that shit would go down at the festival and the fountain would be the resulting fallout
turns out the festival itself went off without a hitch and noelle had to be whisked away after the fact for an unrelated reason, with the dark world being entirely disconnected from the events of the day prior
>>
>>4148402
Susie literally declared that she was taking Noelle to the festival whether her bitch homophobic mom liked it or not. Suselle Date was always expected, but people thought their choices mattered in the "your choices don't matter" game and that you could also turn it into Kriselle or Krusie date.
>>
>>4148402
>Was anyone even expecting a Suselle date in chapter 5?
Me, I kept saying it before the chapter released, of course everyone kept calling me a doomer over it. I had the biggest smile on my face when playing through the festival for the first time.

>>4148365
>Susie is entirely blind to Kris's suffering
I'm pretty sure this is the case, Susie is THAT DUMB or just ignorant
Susie thinks Kris is a master at flirting
Susie thought that Kris and Noelle were a couple when they stopped hanging out even before she came to Hometown
Susie had no fucking idea that Kris had family problems and only did 2+2 when she saw Asgore going insane

Susie no meme, probably thinks Kris is a gigachad with a perfect life
>>
The fact Susie and Noelle still go on their date in the weird route should tell you everything you need to know about the game. Deltarune is a Suselle game.

>>
>>4148394
I believe in a variant of the latter. Normal route will offer an ending that is unstatisfying, you can do the shadow crystal and that will provide something better, but something that still leaves something to be desired, then there's the weird route, where you will truly get a different ending, but it will come at a very heavy price.
>>
>>4148412
Yeah, but that was less out of love and more to convey "Noelle is preparing to cross the threshold, so she's being extra nice to someone she's close to in order to spoil them rotten before she makes her big move" as a big allusion to what some suicidal people do before they off themselves.

Yeah if you didn't ignore Noelle's house in ch4, but also people expected variations like taking Berdly because of previous dialogue options

>>4148432
my understanding of tlou is that drukman had little to do with the actual story of the first one/ everyone was actively calling him a retard and ignoring his suggestions during development
but by 2 he had kicked out all the dissenters to make the subversive masterpiece he'd always envisioned
with undertale and deltarune, it's almost entirely toby, with the weird route being temmie's little project
>>
>>4148432
Toby didn't need an investor to make him focus on fag shit, he's always been like this because he was one of the earliest adopters of liberal bullshit.
Halloween Hack, made way back in 2008, had one of Andonuts's biggest inner conflicts be his suppressed homosexuality, right alongside "I built a machine that killed my son and his three friends." and "I'm a monster. I'm a bastard who can only create things that kill people. That's what I'm good at. That's what I'll keep doing. It's all I'm worth in this world."
>>
>>4148434
The fact Berdly's flirting with Kris went nowhere is really maddening.
>>
>>4148386
Didn't he retweet some Suselle art from some jap on bluesky? Do people honestly think he has the balls to rugpull the alphabet brigade after baiting them that hard? Having some lukewarm inconsequential drama with it is a given but that shit is 100% going to be the endgame barring some outcome where the whole world gets fucked.
>>
>>4148435
Druckman is a subversive Jew who fired the woman who wrote the first game because she wasn't progressive enough.
>>
>>4148400
That could make sense for the Normal Route, although it still tanks the dilemma issue the game presented: it's gassing up a hopeful conclusion where Susie & friends through the power of hopes and dreams can write a new future, but at the same time I'm sure he wants to play out his meta convictions for One Ending. Maybe an epilogue that gives you a glance of what happened could work.
I've also imagine a sort of version where the point of playing the "True" route of Deltarune is to make a new future possible, one the player technically is responsible for writing, eg. it's your fanfic time. In that sense the final sequences of the game are about going through meta fuckery to make a new ending possible, but it's a bittersweet feeling because this new ending works like an AU, and this version of the characters won't ever get to experience it, they're stuck forever in the doomed canon world but glad they created a new one.

What I struggle to see is how to fit the Weird Route into it all, because the way it appears the WR is a rejection of the game's predetermined path, but the only choices it seems to have is: be a complete and utter folly that doesn't give Kris and Noelle freedom, or destroy the narrative in the same way Genocide did and become a little way too similar to Genocide

All the most successful people you have heard of are backed up by lawyers and investors, that's just how it is. Toby profitted off the indie dev image that was built up in the early 2010s by people like Blow and the guy who made Fez who promoted the image of the video game dev working in their parents garage, but we have no clue who is actually behind Toby since unlike those guys Toby is actually very secretive about who he is.

The dark world wasn't inherently TV world, my interpretation was that Kris's cooperation with Tenna somehow extended to making his part of the dark world dominate. The alternative was giving Susie an honest look at just about every aspect of their home life, individually, rather than a specific already-bygone period.
This raises further questions as to what the hell actually goes on when a dark world is made, of course, and how much power the ruler has over it. I acknowledge that. But it's not like we don't know Kris has made deals with Darkners before making the dark world they'd come to reside in, twice now at least.

He won't do that either, there's no point in saying "Chapter 6 soon!!" in a newsletter when just a few weeks later the release date trailer will be in the Nintendo Direct.
Newsletters now only exist to be post-launch behind the scenes information and collab shilling, we're at a point that everything is too close to Toby's heart to just blab about until everyone's had a chance to experience it first.

To be fair it's his fault for making a seasonal newsletter with a consistent schedule for years only to then stop being consistent. He could easily make a post saying something like "Because of the current state of Deltarune's development, newsletter releases might be less frequent than before" and everything would be fine, but he can't do even that.
>>
>>4148578
It's the dojo all over again.
>>
>>4148574
He will eventually make a newsletter once the chapter is mostly done and what's left is mostly polishing and post-production stuff(localization, testing, etc.), then there will be no newsletter until the chapter is announced at a Nintendo event. He did this with chapter 5 and he will do it with 6.

I am aware but you can't shift the blame on the fans. Toby is the one who decided to make a newsletter with a consistent release schedule. It is Toby who built the expectation of consistent, seasonal newsletters, he is the only one to blame here.
>>
>>4148580
My quick research told me the usual times for main Nintendo Directs are February, June and September.
If chapter 6 development is going as well as he says I think a February or March release date isn't impossible, but I'm not counting on that.
It will probably be yet another June release.
>>
>>4148583
People see it this way because Noelle's crush on Susie feels super immature. She only likes Susie because she reminds her of Dess, that's literally elementary school love. My first crush at 6 was on a girl who reminded me of my mom, this is the same shit. Meanwhile, Toby drops WAY too many hints that Noelle has deeper feelings for Kris, on top of Kris's own broken dream of ending up with her. You can't blame people for thinking this is deliberate, I have my doubts too the more I think about it.
>>
>>4148589
It's not even because Susie reminds Noelle of Dess, that's pure vibes reading from incestfags..
It's actually worse than that, she literally only likes Susie because she's something new in a life that's been miserable monotony ever since THAT DAY mindraped her.
>>
>>4148587
February is impossible because he has said he believes SOME, remember, SOME team members to be working on 7, so there will still be some work left to do even if most of it is done, there is also translation, testing, porting, all of which takes time. A 2027 Q2 release is more likely, and something like a late April release is possible in an optimistic scenario, but that also depends on Toby being willing on releasing something without announcing it on a Nintendo Direct first. Theoretically, he could announce an April-May release on the February Direct if he feels confident enough that the chapter will be fully done by then, but we can't say for sure if he will do that.
>>
>>4148593
Yeah, that why I'm expecting June again mainly.
I also don't expect any release on 2028, not just because of the egg dialogue but mainly for the fact it will be another double release like 3+4 was
>>
>>4148595
Yeah, 7B might have good meat on its bones already, implying it'll be standard-length, but 7A is clearly shaping up to be the Mother 3 Chapter 8 of Deltarune, I.E. something that'll totally eclipse the entire rest of the game in terms of length, content depth, and how much narrative lifting it has to do.
>>
>>4148597
Alright, for the last time:
He said years ago chapter 2 was supposed to be the longest one.
Even if he now thinks the newer ones challenge that notion, I still don't think he would enlarge a single chapter so much since then.
I only see 7b being big but only because it is a curveball he tries to keep the kayfabe of not knowing about.
>>
>>4148598
Yeah, but things can change, we've seen nothing but proof that the path to Chapter 7 has changed massively over the years.
>>
>>4148598
Gonna be honest, I just don't trust Toby on that, he really might have believed it at one time but this might not be the case by the time 7 is fully done. I'm sure he didn't expect 3 to take that long to finish either.

>In chapter 2, Lancer makes a joke in which he calls Kris a wife. Characters normally go out of their way to avoid this -- this is one of the few rare instances in which Kris is referred to by a gendered term.

>At the end of the chapter, Kris introduces Susie to Toriel. Her only concern with their relationship is Susie being a bad influence on Kris. Toriel is a conservative mother wary of teenage romance, yet never once suspects the two could be dating. Later she even invites Susie to sleep over in their house. Toriel consistently behaves as if Susie and Kris are the same sex.

>In chapter 4, there is an equipabble item called the Princess Ribbon. Kris is the only character who can wear its gloves. Noelle fits the princess archetype, but she cannot wear them. Ralsei later shows interest in being a princess, but it does not fit him. The princess ribbon only fits Kris.

>Chapter 4 presents us with a depiction of the second hero of the prophecy. Notably, this version is different from the one provided earlier in the story. The second hero here bears exactly one restriction: she has to be a girl. A girl that is depicted wielding Kris's sword and Kris's soul. It could be somebody else picking up Kris's items -- or it could be Kris herself.

>Later in that chapter, Berdly offers us a flirtatious remark. Berdly is a man explicitly stated to only have romantic interest in gamer girls. This list includes Noelle, Susie, Queen -- and apparently Kris.
>>
>In chapter 5, Noelle reminisces over childhood memories. She and Kris argued which of them should be king or queen. Noelle is an extremely feminine person and a natural fit for that role, yet it was not a forgone conclusion. Kris and Noelle argued contentiously about which one of them should be queen.

>When paired with Kris, Susie presents discomfort as identifying as either king or queen. This is odd, as Susie normally has no problems with assuming gendered roles. Presumably she was conflicted about this for the same reason Noelle was -- she and Kris competed for the same gender role.

>Lastly, chapter 5 introduces a new character which parallels Kris as a child. Other similar characters identify as nonbinary, but this one does not. Kris's parallel is explicitly presented as female.

Tenna was so fucked due to being rejected and seeing the family break apart that he was able to dominate the entire Dark World and remake it in his image.
Meanwhile, King was only able to claim a castle and conquer the kingdom because he was newly rejected, Cyber City was mostly normal because Queen was just a bit loopy due to lack of internet, and the Dark Sanctuary was perfectly at peace because the church sees regular use, with the only outlier being Jackenstein, who was content to hide away.

He also said with a lot of confidence that CH5 would be coming in the second half of 2026, and yet we got it earlier than that. I think it's clear that Toby only ever shares his worst-case predictions, so that he can't really dissapoint us.
I understand why people are expecting another june release, but c'mon now. Go read the CH5 progress report from when 3+4 released and compare it to the CH6 one. On top of the latter being significantly more ahead in development, he already confirmed that it's a smaller chapter and that they don't have to create any gimmicks. I really don't see a world where this chapter takes as long as CH5 to release.
Now, I'm not exactly expecting a shadow drop this month, but honestly I think that the chapter is coming out on march at WORST. It honestly depends on how much influence Nintendo has on him.
>>
>>4148895
It's less that Nintendo has influence over him, but more that he wants to highlight in Nintendo Directs as often as possible because they've become associated with him now between the 3+4 Trailer and the 5 Trailer.
So ultimately, if we see nothing in the February Direct next year, it's gonna be another summer release.

I agree with this as long as we're only considering chapter 6. Keep in mind that unless he has a separate team working on 7B, they also have to progress that chapter sneakily while never actually talking about it. Throughout the years I never felt that the chapters didn't respect his release predictions, so there is a good chance that he already takes 7B's production into account when making newsletters, but that's all speculation since we have nothing apart from the /7b/ page.

The last 5 episodes of Twin Peaks season 3 made me understand Deltarune more, to be honest. Like, I can see how much, one year before Toby dropped chapter 1, it could have influenced him. The more we get into side B, the more Lynchian it gets: Noelle feeling she's watching herself behind glass, "crossing" the lake to escape Hometown... Even on side A, the references to the Lost Girl, a plan to bring her back... Toby may have had a dream about what the ending of Deltarune would be before season 3, but I guess the connections between this dream and the story he was writing in order to get to this ending made so much sense by that time that he felt entitled to complete Deltarune, whatever time it would take.

>We are like the dreamer who dreams, and then lives inside the dream. But who is the Dreamer?
Kris Dreemurr's existence is not natural, everything's that "belongs" to him in his room is grey like goners. He's like a goner that dreamed its existence inside the fictional world of Deltarune, independently of what the player wanted the vessel to be.

Same goes for Kris.

Anyone who likes Pink either has no standards or they spent more time jerking off to Deltarune porn than they have playing the fucking game. Each secret boss before her was the pinnacle of their respective chapter and the reason why a lot of players even anticipated said chapters.

Jevil introduced you to the whole quest and had you fight the literal Jester card after a whole dark world modeled after play cards
Spamton was a spectacular Kris parallel and was so interesting that he fueled discussion for years
Chapter 3 dropped you the fucking Knight after hyping him up ever since 2018, with him not disappointing by being the undisputed hardest fight in the game, and let's not even get started on how much of a lore nuke ERAM was.
Gerson gave Susie incredible character development and gave us significant lore drops, while being a great character throughout the chapter

Either Toby stopped caring about the game or he had the brilliant idea to "own the chuds" by making, what was supposed to be the narrative peak of this quest, a retarded troon sex doll with a godawful theme taken from vocaloids.
Even if we consider Pink purely gameplay-wise she still sucks. One of my greatest fears for CH5 was that the shizoboss was going to be a gimmick fight, and unfortunately I was correct.

No, Deltarune is nowhere near where Homestuck was.

What does this even mean? Are you saying that if he released before 2021 people would've actually disliked him? Even if that's true, you fail to account for the fact that he didn't and that people only praised him.
Pink being an anime girl has nothing to do with her abysmal quality as a boss, it's how out of place she is and how TobyFag didn't even try to set her up during the chapter.

>>

>would therefore apply to Spamton as well
They really wouldn't though.

Spamton showed up early in the chapter and hinted that your business with him was far from over, encouraging the player to return to the area once given the chance. When you do come back, the mere fact that only Kris can enter the shop makes it clear that Spamton is being set up to have more depth than the other NPCs. He acts visibly insane and tells (You) to head into Queen's basement to secure a path for him. Once you get there, you're immediately taken aback by its eerie atmosphere, with the game once again forcing you to go solo. Only after telling Spamton to go ahead do you get to fight him, and throughout the fight he talks about wanting to break free from the "strings" just like Kris.

Keep in mind that I might've oversimplified things, but all of this is to say that Spamton had a lot of depth. He MADE you want to find out more about him. It's similar to how CH4 uses the prospect of a new powerful axe to push you towards the secret boss.

Pink didn't do any of this. You find this huge ass door that might as well have "schizoboss here" written on the front, and once you enter she comes in from off-screen to serve as the unfunny gag that she is. Then you fight her with the SUPER COOL BASED anime music that makes you want to laugh and slap your big fat belly. She fails miserably at everything the other bosses managed to accomplish. Jevil had a reason to be locked behind the huge ass door. Enough has already been said about Spamton. ERAM had the lore you seek in a schizoboss while the Knight had the challenge. Gerson was admittedly one of the weaker ones, but he still met the quality checks of a schizoboss while being enjoyable.
>>
>>4149105
Ok, cool. This somewhat resembles an argument. Please note that every post up until now, your arguments against Pink were
>the "mad dummy in disagreement with its anime girl body" thing is objectively bad writing
>Spamton was better because he was in the normal chapter (shopkeeper pink doesn't count)
>Jevil was better because he was card themed in a card chapter (anime themed in the anime chapter doesn't count)
>ERAM was better because he was a lore nuke (all the complaints about him not counting because he didn't take place in the normal battle system don't count)
>Knight was better because it was hard (not being secret and its role being game wide rather than chapter specific don't count)
Spamton being well executed doesn't make Pink wildly worse than everything else. All these secret bosses are disappointing to some slice of players for some reason or another.

Homestuck 3, you mean, Homestuck 2 is already a thing.
I don't think reading Homestuck and keeping it in mind as something Toby was deeply involved with at a fairly young age is a bad idea at all. No, Deltarune isn't going to magically fall into Homestuck's plot structure, but Homestuck had a deep effect on Toby anyway.

Lead with the argument being that Kris is biologically female and how this affects the prophecy. Even as a femKris believer since chapter fucking 1 the pivot to she/her as soon as you make your point is a bit annoying since it feels like you're taking your theory as fact, I assume wider reception would be worse for other reasons, but from what I've seen on reddit and the like people come around to understanding it if you just say they're 'AFAB' and that the prophecy is transphobic.

I referred to Kris as she because I despise 3rd person pronouns. It's why we refer to him as he on these threads. Guess I'll swallow the pill and refer to "them" throughout while raping the English language.

100% this. Even if you disagree with the theory, you have to appreciate the effort put into that kind of intro. For me the smoking guns are the princess ribbon and Kris cheating at cards/Kris cheating at the prophecy (along with the rudinns that are important to Kris and the diamonds are a girl's best friend saying). You could use the strongest evidence first or what was personally THE thing that did you in and convinced you of the theory.

Another really interesting component to FemKris and Darkner Parallels is Hathy and Head Heathy. The former is confirmed a girl, while the latter is gender-neutral, and Head Hathys are considered "later" versions of Hathy, and you can already look at it and gleam a few interesting points of parallel with Kris as a whole.

Huh, I never caught that about Head Hathy. Always thought they were girls too. I thought they were just the start of the theme about the stronger enemies being more distant (in conjunction with the lost symbolism), even if I knew them being hearts was Kris/Soul related. What does it mean that they go from green to blue? Kris changing color in the dark world?
>>
>>4149281
It's the common JRPG trope of "it changed colors so it's stronger", something Undertale previously parodied with the Moldsmals, but it's possible the color choices are deliberate, since green is Kris's most defining Light World color.

Reverse Undertale isn't just about pointing out similarities in Dark Worlds to Undertale at this point, it's about the fact that the misery porn hasn't even remotely started to unfold.
Which means Weird Route is, in part, going to be very necessary to find Deltarune's happiest outcome.

>a pacifist player's goal is to send everything into a better outcome by following the necessary series of wrongdoings and evils in order to allow for a fairy tale picture perfect utopic happy ending, and by doing the genocide run, you prevent the happy ending from occuring and send the entire world into a new darkest and lowest point of the narrative, sending everything into shit in the pursuit of power, or perhaps, the destruction itself was the goal, if you're sadistic enough for that.
the knight's goal is to send everything into shit by following the necessary series of wrongdoings and evils in order to allow for the world to be sent to shit, and by doing the weird run, you prevent the bad ending from occuring and send the entire world into a new happy almost repaired ending, sending everything into a better outcome in the pursuit of power, or perhaps, the fixing of the narrative itself was the goal, if you're hyperempathetic enough for that.

Space politics. Having distinct groups of antagonists with different levels of personal and political power was part of why the OT stood out.

Copying in the strict sense of sci-fi swash bucklers, yeah, but the format it (re)introduced is pretty much the blueprint many famous fantasy franchises followed after.
Besides the special effects and the basic heroic story, Star Wars OT worked because it's just competently done for the most part. It's extremely well paced, while RotS rushes the character journey Anakin should have gone across the entire PT because the first movies just dicked around.

The spirituality and politics of the OT aren't deep at all, that's not why people went crazy, at most they're part of the enticing wish fulfillment.

I agree with your overall opinion here, so I think we misunderstood each other. I think lining up on a thematic level is part of why so many parts of the OT "just worked". Darth Vader hiring a bounty hunter was cool because Boba Fett was cool, but it wouldn't have been as cool if he were just a highly trained stormtrooper in different armor or something. Coming from outside the "evil oppressors vs. helpless free world vs. criminals who sometimes have a cause" dynamic entirely was part of his presence. I call that space politics, so I think people whose objection to the prequels was "politics" are fucking dumb. The prequels burnt a ton of time that should've been spent on Anakin going through struggles that mostly got compressed into the third, I agree on that.

What exactly is the DEVICE_SOUL?
It's a Soul that Kris Can Remove and Reinsert into his body (through his sweater no less), yet it's entirely corporeal and can not only be contained by a bird cage, but it also has enough mass to move a large gift box.
Moreover Kris is able to physically attack and damaged it; and being attacked seem to stun the Soul to a degree.
What exactly is this thing.

It is the connection. Without it, there is only dark.
Maybe the world being covered in darkness is just the end of the game, where Kris gives up entirely and there is nothing left.
>>
>>4149548
I see a few main options.
One: It's primarily meant as a viewport, its ability to function as the SOUL of an actual human is a result of its connection to us and its being shaped after a SOUL from Undertale, the incongruities between Undertale and Deltarune cause the irregularities in its behavior.
Two: It's primarily meant as a "prosthetic" SOUL, our connection through it is irregular and possibly a modification by big G, and this causes the irregularities.
Three: None of this behavior is a result of the SOUL, Kris is why Kris can remove the SOUL and smack it around, maybe related to THAT DAY?
