Undertale / Deltarune / Toby Fox Discussion

The DSi Ware game on 3DS
My man. But maybe the question isn’t Bomberman, the question is “have you ever played one of those Mario Party minigames where things can come from any cardinal direction and you have to move to the safe zone”.

There's just not a lot of time to react to them really. Everyone can dodge a diagonal attack, but its difficult to dodge 3 at once when they're coming at you fast. It's really not a hard bossfight otherwise, just that one rough bullet pattern.
 
Though I'm more confused by how the Bomberman attack actually has a danger zone to make dodging easier later in the fight, but not earlier.
It does make sense they did that since the big bombs' damage range wouldn't look as clear at first glance and "she starts throwing bigger bombs" is an obvious way to escalate the fight. But it certainly does make the attack easier for... multiple reasons. You get danger zones so it's easier to tell exactly where to dodge to, the fact that most of the screen becomes danger zone ironically makes it easier to gun straight for the corner that isn't in the danger zone, and the big bombs are outside the movement box which matters since half the time I took damage from a bomb it was because I ran into the bomb itself trying to get out of blast range rather than from an explosion.
 
・Susie now has additional magic points in Chapter 5 if you defeated the Shadow Crystal boss of Chapter 4.

I fucking knew it. Susie's heal was dogshit in chapter 5 even though she was supposed to have a higher magic stat after beating Gerson
I always thought the reduction of the magic stat symbolized how Susie forgot what Gerson taught her thus leading her to date Noelle (seriously why the fuck is Suselle canon?)

Speaking of Susie @Symbol of the Chud is your theory ready?
 
Speaking of Susie @Symbol of the Chud is your theory ready?
i have one too:

Ohh shit i think i came up with an interesting idea. presenting Ralsei Fraud theory.

we already know from old timeline theory, that deltarune in it's current state is a rerun. it is built on top of the original game, original timeline in which things are different. in there, forgotten man wasn't a cut character who is replaced by sans, along with kris's place in life not being replaced by susie. i propose the idea that the third hero is too, replaced by none other than ralsei.

it would explain a lot of weird stuff happening with him. prophecy panel with him doesn't match, along with him not using fire magic and trying to be a pacifist. it escalates further in chapter 5, where flowery directly call him an "impossibility". why is he an "impossibility"? because he wasn't supposed to exist, he is a fake being created by the prophecy to at least try to keep the story going. that's why he is able to use fire magic, because he is based on the true third hero. yet, he doesn't use it as he knows that he's an imitation of the original. hence the "what even being ralsei-like is?" thing from Ch2, even though he HAS certain traits and is an established character in the prophecy he has no clue what his own personality even could be, not because it's not established by the prophecy but because he doesn't want to imitate it, as it doesn't belong to him.

then there's the prophecy panel that depicts the third hero wearing a coat. and in chapter 1... ralsei wears two coats at the same time. As if trying to recreate what is shown on the prophecy, even though his appearance does not reflect the prophecy at all. HE IS NOT THE THIRD HERO. then, who is it? i believe that the most likely candidate is the Shadow Mantle Holder. not only he uses fire magic, but he is found in the ORIGINAL game. and holy shit, he ACTUALLY acts like flowey from undertale, unlike the timid, gay and estrogen-fueled ralsei.

the next thing that can't be left unmentioned is flowery. he is connected to flowey, thus to the Shadow Mantle holder through "Your Best Friend" and "Your Best Nightmare" duo. both flowery and S.M.H. wear a black Mantle. flowery also calls the fuck squad fake heroes a few times in the game, and has a voice clip "you're a hero?":
* Sometimes, you need to leaf the battle... to the real heroes.
* Just realize. Flowers are the real heroes.
Hah! You thinkyou can matchmy style!?
Is that reallyjust what "HEROES"can do!?
* This isn't a safe world to play "hero" in.
worth noting that "hero" is almost always in quotations. the same guy who knows that ralsei is an impossibility also tells us that fuck squad aren't heroes.

what can i add to the old timeline theory with this new information? not only susie is a fake hero, but ralsei too is a replacement of the true third hero who is SMH. an interesting detail, is that ralsei is green and if he is indeed based on SMH then SMH is somehow connected to forgotten man. and he does throw Egg bombs at us and is the owner of the pack of cats that hunt for protein(Eggs), implying that SMH could be searching for forgotten man, as both of them were similarly cut from the new timeline. thus it makes sense for him to encourage the weird route, hell, forgotten man even "tossed leftovers in a dumpster" which are supposedly the thornring.

in general i think that flowery and pink friend monologue were added because toby realized that he fucked up with loremaxxing, and players not only have no clue who is that shadow mantle guy but also think that friend is the tail of hell and a big bad. honestly i have nothing against these patches in loremaxxing side of things because that ""Your Best Friend" - "Your Best Nightmare"" duo made me confused, too.

Let's come back to my nostalgic dream for a second. Did you hear what the third hero have said? "You will lead us to freedom"; weird route i know but that third hero is probably SMH and the omnious voice is forgotten man, so my theory gets confirmed through a dream? i fear that this dream was very accurate at predicting deltarune even if there wasn't any game footage.

I hated the bomb attack because of the RNG involved and the fact that it can easily down in two hits. Sometimes you get an easy pattern and sometimes you get this.
bomb.png

The last bomb she throws is the one below you and the first she threw is the far right one. It's reactable, but punishing. I play through Deltarune without using consumables and I found Mew-Mew to be the second hardest boss close behind The Roaring Knight. I also didn't use cat resistant equipment so that's probably why.

Shouldn't have been nerfed though. God forbid an optional boss more than halfway through the game is challenging.

Edit: The X is where you're supposed to move, not where she's throwing the final bomb
 
Am I the only who didn’t have any problem with the bomb attack? The 3D perspective attack is the one that screwed with me the most, and it took me a few tries before I realized why I was taking damage every two seconds.
The only bomb attack thats an issue is when she combines the three lines string attack with the bombs, in which case it's too much to dodge at once imo. Even then though it doesn't matter because you can just dodge the sideways bombs and tank the vertical bombs.
The 3d attack was also a bit hard but no
but it was definitely the easiest of the shadow crystal bosses.
Spamton was 100% easier, I don't think anyone had to retry it to win.

How about this: If it bothers you that I call Kris a he, just replace the pronouns back to "vanilla" in your head.
And, surprising no one, the community is insufferable about Kris being "they."
I know this troonery has been discussed ad infinitum, but I recently saw a video thats a "brand new prophecy theory" that says "the prophecy is up to interpretation!" (which is one of three possible options so it's not exactly an ingenious theory), and the autist making the video essay was talking about how fiction can be interpreted as anything EXCEPT if you misgender Kris, because the "banana can be interpreted as a critique of capitalism" (he said this), but "you CANNOT interpret the obvious boy character who is interested in girls and has boyish interests as a boy you FUCKING BIGOTTTTTT!!!!"

(at 6:58)

It never gets dull seeing reminders how profoundly retarded the Theystappo of the internet are.

I really hate the hypocrisy. Really pathetic when they do that.

Genuinely makes me wonder if Toby will reveal that Kris is called a 'they' for a reason besides gender.
I'd find it funny if it's revealed that it's simply that Kris wants the pronouns to be 'they/them' because it makes him feel like royalty or something.
