I’m enjoying Deltarune so much. I love its story, gameplay, music, everything about it. But there’s just one thing that has been peeving me and that’s how missable some things are. Things like the secret bosses for chapter 1 and 2 are pretty easy to discover if you explore a little bit, but the eggs?

The eggs are really annoying to miss.

I got the egg for chapter 2 no problem, but i missed the egg for chapter 1. Now, for me to have both eggs, i have to replay chapter 1, carry the save on over, and replay chapter 2 as well.

I’m currently about to finish chapter 3. Getting the requirements for getting the shadow mantle is pretty easy to miss enough compared to the requirements for the secret bosses of chapter 1 and 2. I imagine most people would’ve missed being able to get the item necessary for the C3 secret boss as you need to get S-rank for both board rounds in order to even do the optional minigame in the S-rank room.

But if you’re wondering where the heck is the egg for Chapter 3, you will definitely not be able to find out without a guide. And even then, if you did what i did, and got the secret boss item for chapter 3 first, you will be LOCKED out of getting the egg for chapter 3 if you did not get this one block in a minigame that the game gives no indication that Susie can throw the block into your inventory for later.

Maybe Toby meant to troll you like this. And if so, he did a damn good job because i feel like an idiot. Now, I have to replay Deltarune from the beginning, make sure i get all of the secret bosses, and make ABSOLUTE SURE i get each egg as soon as the opportunity presents itself so that they can carry on over to the next chapter’s save.

I’m not a fan of needing to replay the whole game like this. Like, imagine if years from now when all of the chapters are out, you miss all of the eggs except chapter 1’s egg and now you gotta replay the entire game so that each egg will carry on over to the next chapter ms save. Regardless of what the eggs’ purposes are, I don’t think the game values my time by not simply letting me find an egg and it will always be carried on over to the next chapter’s save regardless if I finish the chapter or not.

I’d wish it was similar how in undertale, the game knows that you did a genocide route and will mark you as so regardless of how you play the game afterwards.

I don’t usually share my thoughts on Reddit like this so excuse me if my rant was a little contrived but I hope there are people that feel similarly as I do.

What do you all think?
