@He11d1v3rs @jelqmaster5 I have no contempt for videogames that arent grifts. Lots of those.

@FleshFle @jelqmaster5 Oops! It was contempt for the medium all along!
English
I like deltarune but deltarune fans sometimes treat it as this impossibly perfect game that it isn't and act like every criticism is unjust
Ash'more @Amoresome
I love how all the deltarune chapter 5 haters like vanished off the face of the earth after 4 days
English
@DrAwesomeV2 Honestly figured someone picked up the computer after every brain scan was taken, including those hypothetical "others that can fall in". and someone like real kinger or pomni's keeping them on repeat out of intrigue. With the years of simulation lasting few real world seconds
English
Coming from someone whose pretty nitpicky about TADC, IMO the commentary should be less
“what’s the deal with C&A”
and more so
“how did these people stumble on the same headset seemingly in an abandoned location that’s somehow still functioning and has wifi (sometimes?)”
Phantom@t_tPhantom
"We don't know anything about C&A" -Compagny worked on creative Al, made 2 Als and a brainscanner because Scratch had a tumor -Caine Al breached + ate Blue AI (wasnt planned) results : it shuts down -Caine makes the scans work All of this is shown, thats litterally all of it

@_callmesebby or deltarune's a prequel and papyrus isnt around or whatever way deltarune's supposed to be a sequel to undertale. since it was always a narrative presented as toby having his cake and eating it too. eh
English
@_callmesebby If true then this is the funniest thing toby could do with the guy. Like holy fucking shit please toby this would be fantastic. Granted deltarune is shifting goalposts the 100 hour narrative so who knows.
English
sans is 100% from deltarune but i don’t understand papyrus because he seems entirely oblivious to the concept of the sun in undertale. was he just birthed in the brothers’ house and stayed a shut in ever since. have they never once touched foot outside in hometown. i don’t get it
English
@FaroeKitsune @emilyis_emilies Thats also just deltarune being way too long for its own good. but a different situation. gaster is very clearly just toby's own Gman in a narrative sense as his glorified middleman contextualization of toby himself and Gman moggs the fuck out of him for being that but good
English
@FleshFle @emilyis_emilies I did agree with you for FRIEND. But we are talking about Gaster. The Game is not even completed.
English
btw i do know about the fun value stuff and entry 17. i just thought he’d be more relevant overall. people say he’s “haunting the narrative” but for that to be the case he’d have to like… be relevant.. to the narrative. AT THE MOMENT (could change idk), he is just an easter egg
the emiliest! 🌻@emilyis_emilies
finally completed Undertale (true pacifist) for the first time and i have to say uhh. i’m still confused as to why people talk about how important Gaster is to deltarune bc like. he’s even less relevant in Undertale than i thought 😭
English
@jelqmaster5 Its aethetics and mechanics do weave very well into the narrative and thesis it wants to discuss. Like the bullet hell dialogue puzzles are a very good choice at a gameplay loop that incentivizes thinking, and thus eventually. empathizing. writing just cant keep up.
English
@jelqmaster5 A better game than deltarune but still at best a 5/10 who's character writing undermines its intended themes way too badly to take it as anything but somewhat pretentous.
English
@Bemol417647 I mean ragatha would make more sense. Her kindness punching jax's mental gymnastics to try and deal with complicated and broken parents is shattered by an older woman just trying to do good for its own sake. Granted you could say both rags and gangle jax projects onto with that
English
Gooseworx elaborated that Jax abuses Gangle because she is using Gangle as a proxy for her abusive mother. That should’ve been an episode or story arc in the show.
Katie@nons_alt
What important lore was shown offscreen exactly? And don't say stuff about c&a cause we already know everything we need to know about them that's important
English
fun fact: the "Video games and software" section of this list contains exactly 3 items:
• Deltarune
• Omori
• Salesforce

English
@GrandestBust @emilyis_emilies Always "theory" and not, "Developed mechanical theme" Like i said, Gman with no aura. Everything you can try and say gaster is. Gman is actually all that and more from a mechanical and metanarrative sense.
English
@FleshFle @emilyis_emilies Device theory does analyze his necessity and purpose so y'know, it is what it is
Also he talks to us in Deltarune, he's not avoidable.
English
@chimeraAmbition OFF, his contributions to the OFF remake soundtrack are genuinly straight ass and made me despise his fandom and find him as nothing more than a grifter. Before? He was fine. No Klepaki or van den Bos. But after that Showing at OFF and the UT kids dickriding it? HOOOO lol no
English
@_Escrevedori mortis ghost did well writing and designing OFF. probably the best written indie game ive played. Play the OG release not the steam one.
English
I wish i could tell people that just because indie creators are not that experienced professionally doesn't mean they cant do really good things but sadly they have been showing me the opposite. Theyre not doing >writing< they are making stories with their personal tastes lool
English
I used to disagree with the people who said indie creators are not really good at writing but nowadays i know this is unfortunately true. A good amount of them have weird mindsets about what makes writing acctually good and this makes me kinda disapointed because+
English
@DrAwesomeV2 To be fair. it was rather noticeable earlier on before the series became the binding of jax exclusivly and not how everyone suffers and sucks shit in the pastel matrix
English
@sapphicfunbun Episode 7 is the most nothing burger for characters until the last second where finally it remembered it had to push the characters along so had jax and caine do like one thing. could have removed episode 7 and just started at EP 8 where caine just stops thinking right or somethn
English
Fuck it we're gonna have to add Deltarune fans on here because you've all been genuinely so annoying towards valid critique of Chapter 5
🍉 Quacker/Bun (STATIC SHOCK/DC ERA)🍉@Bunnyfarmz
Holy trinity of fandoms that cannot take any form of criticism against the source material/it's creators (Some worse than others)
English
@t8peworm Legit throw a dart and any minor supporting character with some actual presense will find themselves losing all setup and becoming the same sacherine sweet pea for no buildup, no arc and no real rebuke to them as a character previously set up. Like legit its really bad.
English
calling toby a “bad writer” just because you didn’t like one chapter of his game is fucking crazy
English
