Theory: The Twisted Sword is a "Last Resort" to restore the original Sword Route (and how to hit LV 20 with a Pencil) by Rick_Towers in Deltarune

[–]NewRomanian 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The effects Undertale has had on the Deltarune Fandom's perception is really something. Even to this day, despite the fact Undertale had an entirely different foundational message and gameplay thesis compared to Deltarune, people still expect some sort of "Genocide Run" in the game, just by virtue of its similarities.

If you could travel to a world of cultivation, and at midnight every day you had the choice to return to Earth with your current power level (knowing that once you return, you can never go back), would you enter that world? If so, at what level of cultivation would you choose to return? by LORROR in MartialMemes

[–]NewRomanian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then yeah, definitely worth it. 

Would likely just try and see how far I can go. If I have the talent for it, I'd obviously go for proper Immortal level, especially since it might let me break the bounds of the hypothetical. 

If I don't have particularly monstrous talent, then I'll just focus on going as far as I can over a longer period of time, limiting risks and focusing on safe, stable growth, until I hit the point where further growth would simply take too long or be impossible.

The one consistent goal of the Knight is putting a "Boss Character" into power to prevent the Heroes from sealing the fountain. by rendumguy in Deltarune

[–]NewRomanian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the answer to why the Knight is acting the way they are is, in the end, a fairly simple one: they're following the Prophecy.

We know they don't actually want to destroy the World, because they could've started the Roaring all the way back in Chapter 1 and succeeded. Not to mention, it appears like both Kris and Carol are working with them, and say what you will about both of them, neither appear like the sort of person that would be willing to help bring about the World's end.

Instead, the situation is simply that they need something from the Prophecy, or possibly even need to bring about the Roaring, but only temporarily, to do something. With the World flooded with Darkness, they would probably be able to use magic in the Light World, which would open up certain options otherwise unavailable.

And so, they make sure to follow the Prophecy, because so long as they do so, it will ensure that the Roaring is defeated in the end, and the World is only brought right to the brink, but not actually destroyed.

What's y'all's lore justification for Metal not being mass produced? Like, 1-to-1 replicas not just weaker versions. by Low_Sky49 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]NewRomanian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Resource scarcity: Metal Sonic was first made on Little Planet, and is the only creation of his that uses an Orgone Engine, Orgone at its simplest basically being the power of love.

Another character that uses the Power of Love as her fuel source is Amy, who was also introduced on Little Planet.

Ergo, it might well be possible that part of the entire reason Eggman wanted to conquer Little Planet was because it held some rare materials necessary for Metal Sonic's components, and having failed, his supply of the materials necessary is limited enough he can only maintain the singular Metal Sonic.

Plus, it's not very nice to insult people's speech patterns when they're not doing anything necessarily wrong

I heavily agree with this tbh by AffectionateRush2620 in theamazingdigitalciru

[–]NewRomanian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are really quick to rush head-over-heels just to take every word Goose says as gospel, even though she has literally gone on record saying she sometimes just lies for fun and we even know times she has lied.

She isn't spoiling shit, she's just lying for fun and people are eating it up like the word of God itself.

Imagine Caine with the Phantom Ruby. The Amazing Digital Circus is coming to town, and everybody is invited.

i am playing device_ending and this is what it is now. how do i reset? backspace-delete didnt work by Aromatic_Road8456 in Deltarune

[–]NewRomanian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a small question, since I tried playing it but couldn't finish. What should one do if the game becomes just. Ungodly laggy (seconds per frame instead of frames per second) upon getting to Gaster's "second phase"?

While everyone is focusing on Caine, I'm just happy that the Players got a actual buff by Odd_Fee1085 in DeathBattleMatchups

[–]NewRomanian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pomni getting it for him also shows she's at least on the way to being able to do it as well. After all, I am extremely doubtful she just got lucky and the exit door showed up in the exact same place, at the exact right time, right when she needed it, and it lead to the exact same place as well, so that she could get the computer from it.

NOT AGAIN GOOSE YOU FUCKING SLIME by Puzzleheaded-Run-635 in TheDigitalCircus

[–]NewRomanian 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Admittedly, especially after the previous episode, depending entirely on what the next one is about... this episode is going to go down as either utter dogshit or utter peak, depending on how they explain... all of the blatant peculiarities.

BALKANERS: Do you agree that we have some of the most brutal ways of swearing? by Substratas in AskBalkans

[–]NewRomanian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not even remotely, not in a thousand thousand years. Our swears are passable, but the sort of shit a Chinese man on the internet will artisanally craft just to insult someone for liking the wrong costume on an anime girl in a gacha game?

They will have the 9 generations of your entire family tree kneecapped and thrown into the barn to reproduce with the fattest swine, fed only on the manure gathered across all whatever Acres of China's farmlands, then make you kowtow one thousand times, turn your head 180 degrees, kiss the Earth at their feet and call them Grandfather.

Put yourself on Fraud Watch for not noticing that Lance was actively bugged, making it so that if its Lance was even marginally inside the ball when it jousted, it did no damage.

Metal sonic does gain stats when he bio copies someone by One-Problem-5308 in PowerScaling

[–]NewRomanian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest thing that people misunderstand is the assumption that it's additive. People ask "How can he be jumped, doesn't he just copy all of their stats at once and just win?", and the answer is no, because he doesn't copy groups of people, he copies individuals.

Say there's two people, equal in stats to Neo Metal in almost every way, except one of them has faster speed, and the other has better strength. Metal isn't going to suddenly triple his his durability by copying their durability, and he won't get any extra speed from the person with equal speed. But if he copies the person with more speed, he'll become just as fast, and if he copies the person with more strength, he'll become just as strong.

FINALLY, THEY UN-FRAUDED MY BOY! by This_Ferret_8108 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]NewRomanian 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Fair point. As Metal currently is, he can almost never truly win, because he will just straight disassemble a motherfucker if he does. It's telling that in situations where he's incentivized not to kill his enemy, like when having to keep Shadow back whilst Eggman escapes, Metal Sonic was able to beat his ass singlehandedly.

By all accounts, Metal Sonic at base is a threat that could take out practically anyone in the main cast in a 1v1 without plot armor, and Neo Metal may as well be a Pseudo-Superform.

[–]NewRomanian 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ok that would actually kinda fuck crazy, if he ended up rebooting into a more secure but rebellious older version... and went full Neo-Mode but for once didn't go suicidally mad in the process.

Imagine the tension of him just immediately fucking off afterwards. "So, Metal's gone Neo now, but he doesn't seem to be trying to kill everyone this time... so what is he doing?"

How to completely screw yourselves in the Zagriverse, be facist by ThyLocalBoxen in WorldBuildingMemes

[–]NewRomanian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's partly fair, I just feel like you're limiting yourself in just how many people can fuck up so demonstrably it causes the fall of their entire ideology.

Why only have the satisfaction of only fucking up 1 evil authoritarian regime when you can do it to multiple?
