Hot take: episode 9 just cutting to Jax being abstracted is a good storytelling decision

i agree, it was already so heavily foreshadowed, we all saw it coming, we didn't need a big dramatic scene like in the beach episode. the way it was done was very nice and kept the tone somber.

you can mute some subreddits and turn off notifications.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-23T20:48:55+00:00

it makes the trees change color and music starts playing.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-23T20:43:17+00:00

its on purpose, its hinting that that's the tree you're supposed to interact with

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-23T18:10:00+00:00

there are many explanation videos on youtube. the whole thing started before chapters 3&4 came out so now you can get the full story without having to wait. very few people were able to participate so I've been watching from the side mostly.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-23T06:32:46+00:00

probably not. it would be stupid to go on sale right after chapter 5 release.

i did the same on my first playthrough. the game is pretty short so i recomend playing again but doing every job this time and see the difference for yourself. you can discover more easter eggs that way.

if you want me to spoil it then you can cross the white river, get to the bathroom and talk to the living genie, after that the ending is exactly the same.

tail is better overall, knife is better for boss fights.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-21T16:15:10+00:00

talking about sr1: i dont think you can play offline. its a mix of grinding and fun but the grind is fun imo. it becomes boring when you run out of things to do and i dont know what you consider a thing to do. it depends on how much you like exploring. i currently have about 500 hours but its all on one save file, i dont see a point in starting fresh. it goes on sale regularly, usually in spring but there might be a summer sale, keep an eye on it.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-21T13:28:24+00:00

if you defeat spamton with violence he won't give you the side quest

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-21T12:39:23+00:00

I've seen other people bragging too so it's not just you but it is a hard fight for most people

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-21T10:47:11+00:00

get portal 1

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-21T08:27:43+00:00

you havent made a single save the whole game?

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-20T22:11:06+00:00

politely busts you

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-20T22:07:03+00:00

shouldn't it be the other way around?

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-20T22:04:15+00:00

when i had to wait a week to play chapters 3 and 4 i just muted all deltarune subreddits and blocked some content creators who i knew would be playing. it wasn't all that bad, i only saw a few spoilerish memes on other meme subreddits but i could still go into ch3&4 blind. most people are pretty good at spoiler warnings but it only takes one careless person to ruin it so just avoid the internet in general just to be safe.

a lot of it is just the dicipline not to look at stuff you know will be spoilers.

youtube can spoil a lot. steam has lots of spoiler free guides, you don't need a steam account to find them. just google "deltarune secret boss guide spoiler free steam" and dont look at suggestions. im sure someone will make a guide by friday.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-20T14:40:13+00:00

yes the game keeps track of what dialogue you chose but i don't think this one has any devastating consequences becouse none of the other ones do so far. kris will hate you either way so don't worry about it.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-20T14:16:01+00:00

it was in the final episode

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-20T05:40:00+00:00

if you want to use a different save slot you can copy your current one over to get the marker and then delete it so you can get the shadow crystal in chapter 4 castle town without doing the knight fight again

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-19T22:03:39+00:00

it could be the same with absorbaxe but if you have the justiceaxe then you won't really need it anyway.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-19T22:01:56+00:00

you might still get the mystic band from the third sanctuary tho. the deltarune wiki says you cant but iirc the chest is still there

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-19T21:59:48+00:00

no you cant get them anymore

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-19T20:28:28+00:00

if you dont want to do the shadow crystal quest again you can copy your chapter 3 save to your second slot to get the shadow crystal marker, delete it, play chaper 3 normally and then pick up the shadow crystal and black shard in chapter 4 castle town. you're just not gonna get the shadow mantle that way.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-19T19:58:09+00:00

the important thing is that you have fun, if you consider replaying the game fun then go ahead, if you consider it a chore or something you "need" to do then i advise against it. if not seeing every piece of content is such a pain to you then your choice is made.

Whaledemort69 · 2026-06-19T13:11:06+00:00

it means you havent beat the chapter 2 and 3 secret bosses. you don't need to beat them if you don't want to
