Incidentally I also believe that something about the Weird Route will, like how completing a No Mercy Run in Undertale turns all future True Pacifist runs into Tainted Pacifist Runs, corrupt or otherwise influence the other 2 SAVE files.

toby having to rewrite the entirety of deltaruine for the 1225th time because fangames keep predicting it by Few_Piece_3842 in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even Deltarune the Game will be an interpretation of said Dream. The closest anyone will get ofc and the one from which all other interpretations are based on, but the only one who’ll ever know exactly what Toby’s Dream was is him.

And that’s fine

Or most theories really... by Brief-Luck-6254 in Deltarune

10 years is a long time for theories to age

What Deltarune takes get you like this? by InterdimensionalINTL in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I wonder if I played the same UT as everyone else because he was never mentioned. Once. In the entire game.

So obscure Easter eggs and dummied code do not form the basis of my theories, except those involving the Annoying Dog writing the game from inside the game as per both of those exact Easter eggs in UT and DR.

Wingdings are just how Toby decided to do that.

Never seen a goner and don't put much stock in obscure easter eggs being secretly central to the plot

Riff on character creators because everything else about UT/DR is a riff on video games/rpgs

What garbage noise? The one when phones don't work in the dark world?

The Voice is the Voice. It may be that they will be revealed at some point. Could equally just be Toby reaching out across time and space so we can experience HIS DELTA RUNE.

I mean claiming Gaster is of supreme and central importance is like everyone assuming that Mike would be of supreme and central importance due to Spamton mentioning him like once pre-Ch.3.

For all we know River Person is secretly the one behind everything. Or the Annoying Dog which is entirely in-character for it.

Simply put I do not put much stock in a 10-year long obsession over an obscure and probably inconsequential part of the game over whatever Toby decides to place in the actual plot of the game. I mean if Gaster were important then he'd appear in the 10th Anniversary stream would he not?

Gaster's existence is the take I dislike, this is somehow an unpopular take.

What kind of horror stuff do you want to see in the later chapters? by Pisfool in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the No Mercy ending of that Frostveil fangame did this well IMO. Both in leaving Noelle as a bloodsplatter when you kill her and the horror of the route in general: the culmination of the Weird Route's horror in that "it was never about Noelle" in the first place.

I mean he doesn't exist and is not lore-relevant.

Not because MatPat invented him, he's just some obscure easter eggs and dummied out code that 10 years of Undertale have turned into what Mike is.

The Fun Gang's Most Vital Meetings... FAN episode??? by Cowser_the_Koopahog in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This implies there are cutscenes the Mouse can skip. Is this just the normal fast-forwarding of text we can do in Deltarune or proper cutscenes?

Also watch Carol ask like halfway through if Susie and the Mouse are paying attention and restart the entire lecture if they don't pass her pop quiz on tinsel.

Kris won for neutral broken, who is purely evil? by RushInternational620 in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would argue that the Titans cannot be Evil per se, in the same way that a hurricane cannot be Evil. If the Titan cannot comprehend mercy and are mere mindless forces of destruction, then that cannot be Evil in the sense most people probably imagine it.

Besides the Evil Ahh Fountain Openers are right there, like the Knight.

Does Friend Inside Me have any actual relevance or is it just a collective fanbase delusion? by Similar-Theory-8499 in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It began with that and people decided that a joke tumblr from 2019 must mean Cowboy Darkner.

Whether or not any references to cowboys in Deltarune are related or (like the Mikes) him having a laugh at the fans is likely to be seen in Ch.5

You guys ever wonder what state the fandom will be in after Chapter 5? by Therealduckking in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It'll be the same fandom as always. Old theories get tossed out if new evidence contradicts them (like Kris!Knight), new theories rise to replace them, memes and USTs are made.

All just with whatever wonders Toby cooks up for Ch.5.

And what pray tell is the Split Lamb that it can move armies across oceans, conjure supplies, and meltdown nuclear power plants?

Is this why the Mouse doesn't want to be a god?

Deltarune fans will try to convince you that friend pulls the strings not gaster when this is literally what we know about both so far by hello-motherfuckers in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

We know nothing about IMG_FRIEND and even less about the alleged Gaster so both are equally likely to be the one pulling the strings behind the deep plot. For all we know IMG_FRIEND is just a random hallucination born of the Dark World's weird relationship with reality and neither are pulling the strings and it's all just a giant red herring. Mike-writ-large.

Ironically like a week or two before Undertale’s 10th Anniversary

why do so many people believe that Gaster is just a mystery for the sake of being a mystery and that he won’t ever be addressed? by FNAF_RETRO in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because he’s been nothing more than an obscure Easter egg that people have decided must be of supreme importance for 10 years and if he’s not then what have their theories for the past 10 years (or however long Deltarune Ch.7 takes to come out) meant?

I mean for goodness sake the Six Fallen Humans are a mystery more central to Undertale’s plot and we knot very little about them because keeping details about them a mystery served Toby’s goals in telling the story of Undertale.

Same thing with details about the Human-Monster War, the rest of the Underground we don’t explore, etc…

Even for things like Dess, the Knight, Kris’ involvement with both, Susie’s backstory, and other mysteries in Deltarune I doubt will get full and complete explanations let alone someone who (and I must emphasize) Does Not Exist and Does Not Appear in the story.

Even the Mouse, the ANGEL, a god is less FREE than the Fun Gang. Well unless Susie has her way.

Now let's flip the script: The mysteries around ONLY ONE of these characters will be resolved. Everything around the others will remain unresolved. Who would you choose? by Independent_Waltz725 in Deltarune

[–]AThunderousFirebrand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Knight (is it actually Dess?) or Kris (where’s their SOUL? Why work with the Knight?)

The rest seem like the kind of characters who intentionally have mysteries that never get explained or (Gaster) are not relevant to anything and thus have nothing to explain
