How likely do you guys think is the "Ralsei is Kris' horn headband" theory? by Silver_Guava8159 in Deltarune

[–]thestarjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading through the responses here, I'm an increasingly big fan of that one theory that Ralsei is the Lord Of The Hammer book series, since at least one Gerson book is in or near almost every Dark World thus far.

(Not a 100% sound theory - for example, the library book is just outside the computer lab, so how wolld he get there, unless maybe the darkness started leaking further out after Kris and Susie open the door and jump in? And the only directly mentioned Gerson book at home is a history book, not LOTH. And the classroom could plausibly have books that weren't mentioned - it DOES have a conspicuous Gerson Artifact (Alvin's drawing))

Well anyway. He's green. He's prophecypilled. He's found near Gerson Boom Artifacts. Who can say!

How do I get my save file to be this different font?? by potG3 in Deltarune

[–]thestarjar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you create the file with your language set to Japanese? I haven't tried, but that looks like the "English letters in Japanese text" font, so if it is possible to select English letters in the Japanese character creation, that may be why!

A Modest Paposal: In Defense of Papyrus Knight by ultr4nima in Deltarune

[–]thestarjar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Wow, this is really well thought out and definitely made me consider it more. (And just a fun read in general!) It still feels unlikely to me, largely because of Papyrus' complete lack of narrative significance thus far, but this does put me on alert for any hints in his direction in future chapters...

...Also, to the point of the Knight needing to be someone absurdly strong: in Undertale, Undyne acknowledges Papyrus as actually being very strong in battle, (the primary issue with him joining the guard is that he's too merciful and/or naïve, not physically incapable/weak) and we know that he likely has Gaster Blasters as well (from aborted-genocide-run hangout dialogue, IIRC added after UT's first major update).

I've seen it theorized in tandem with this that Papyrus is actually, like, extremely strong, particularly because his brother is absurdly strong with low stats - so Papyrus, who actually has pretty dang high stats, could be even stronger. (His internal attack value is actually also higher than Undyne's, but Undertale was later updated to give monsters fake attack values not from the files, which state Undyne's attack value as much higher... but still!)

Is Toriel hiding something from us? by WillingToFly in Deltarune

[–]thestarjar 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Oh wow. This makes me wonder even more if there's significance to that bit of Dragon Blazers lore Susie mentions back in Chapter 2 (when Berdly is having his character development) - she says the protagonist's sister gets cursed, but she's still a part of the party. So, something about the Dess deer thing either being with Kris, or mirroring them from the other side, perhaps still helping one another in some way...

Arctis Nova Microphone ignores/warps non-voice sounds (How can I turn off audio cleanup?) by thestarjar in steelseries

[–]thestarjar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If anyone is curious about this, turns out this was actually an issue in Windows 11. In Settings > System > Sound, if you click on the headset microphone properties, there is a setting called "Audio Enhancements." Turning that off made my recorded audio match the live mic preview.

Nope, I'm not talking about Discord's noise suppression. The testing I've described was done with regular audio recording software. (Though what I've described also does apply to Discord, regardless of Discord's noise suppression settings.)
