So deltarune is a free game but undertale isn’t which is kinda weird to me. But since it only has one chapter so far, would it be free once the full game comes out or you have to purchase it. I have a feeling that chapter one is like a demo of the game. What do you guys think?

Do you guys have high hopes for the Deltarune series?

"The expectations for my next work would be really high, so high that I knew that no matter what I did, I felt like people would be underwhelmed. If you played "UNDERTALE," I don't think I can make anything that makes you feel "that way" again. However, it's possible I can make something else. It's just something simple but maybe you'll like it. See you in ?? years... OK? Don't forget."

- Toby Fox

My opinion: Chapter One was truly a unique and fun experience for me, but when I played Undertale, Undertale made me more emotional and I felt that Undertale was actually better than Deltarune. However, it's hard to say whether Deltarune or Undertale will be better, as Deltarune still has many more chapters not released, and what I experienced was just a very small portion of what is to come for Deltarune. I hope that Deltarune can be better than Undertale and truly can make me feel "that way" again. I can't help but have really high expectations for Deltarune as

1. It is Toby Fox's 2nd work

2. He is gathering a team of people to help him in the development.

3. Familiar characters are returning from the Undertale universe to the Deltarune world, which makes me feel that the next chapters will be more exciting and fun.

What do you guys think? Leave your thoughts in the comments down below, please. Thanks for taking the time to read this!

I had played Undertale 2 months before I played Deltarune. You?

Its prolly just me but this place always made me feel nostalgic. the second i saw it for the first time i was instantly reminded of an old game i still love dearly. Even now its the only thing i can think of when i look at it.

Has anyone felt similar?

I just want to get this out my head so I can go on with my day. Thank you! I legit got more research on Deltarune and I need to know more relationships. Thank you for your valuable time.

I personally would find it nice, but I'm not sure how necessary it'd be.

So, to begin things, Toby stated that Undertale is 'unrelated' to Deltarune.

Unrelated is an anagram to both these words, but that is likely to be a coincidence.

But looking at the beginning of Deltarune and those words Susie told you- and the genocide ending, we get this:

Undertale Genocide Ending: "Since when were you the one in control?"

Deltarune Beginning and Susie: "Your choices don't matter"

Also, Deltarune, in many ways, is the polar opposite of Undertale:

Lets compare Asgore and the king, Asriel and Lancer.

Asgore is kind hearted, The king is evil and sadistic.

Asriel starts out kind hearted, but then is turned into an evil maniac. Lancer has the same happen in reverse.

This could, in theory, mean that Lancer will return to being an antagonist, similar to Flowey turning back into Asriel.

Also, note that Ralsei and Asriel are the exact same character, with a few differences.

What I'm seeing here, is that Kris, having turn villainous, will be joined by Ralsei, who will soon get corrupted. Meanwhile, Lancer and Susie turn to Kris' team, turning the protagonists into the antagonists-

That being said, there is not .much more I can estimate about Chapter 2. But I have a feeling that Noelle will be the new protagonist- she would come over to visit Kris, only to find her soul in a birdcage and said person nowhere to be found. Devastated, she would absorb the soul and begin searching for Kris... but it doesn't end there-

The town looks like a disaster has befallen it- dust and chaos everywhere... it is up to you to find Kris and stop them, but, they are nowhere to be found. At least, until you end up in the next dark world- on a search for Kris and Susie, who was later discovered missing.

From what I am thinking here- we won't be seeing Kris, Susie and the others until the final chapter. . .

(Yes I know most of the stuff I wrote is just fancy guessing, but honestly, it's really hard to estimate what the next chapter will be with what little we have)

Also, let me explain how Undertale is related to Deltarune.

Interestingly enough, the True Pacifist and the neutral endings are unrelated to Deltarune. The true pacifist is the true ending- the true Undertale.

However, Genocide is not the true ending of genocide... Toby punishes you for doing Genocide... you could say Genocide isn't truly a part of Undertale.

That I think explains how Deltarune is so similar to the genocide ending of Undertale... because the Genocide ending isn't Undertale.

I personally see her as a Dinosaur or Lizard since that what she pretty much looks like. But what are your thoughts?

Heres a really bad theory but I want to post anyways, to see people's thoughts on it.

This is going to be long but hey.

Ralsei will betray us in chapter 2:

Theres a couple of implications that, closing the fountain will destroy all the land it created, or will effect something in the dark world.

Ralsei actually says the Fountain creates the world, something specific to notice.There is a gate that separates Ralsei's World (The only places Ralsei had ever been) and the rest of the dark world.

I'm kinda going to go onto a more story like section on what I think will happen in the beginning or what i roughly think will happen, and leave the evidence near the end.

Susie has asked for kris and her to go to the dark world again the next day.

Kris obviously is in a tough spot. In a bird cage.

At least the kris she knew.

I believe it will end up being something along the lines of, her trying to find kris, and Noelle end up tagging along to help her. To the point they go to his house to find the cage, and kris being the only human seemingly in town, they will of course realize this is kris. Susie will obviously want to go to the dark world to find Ralsei, the only "friend" she knows that could help fix this.

Noelle will of course be forced to go with her, and will end up in the dark world with her, I can imagine Susie will explain things as they go to his castle.

However they'll likely be met with multiple betrayed cards (I'm referring to every enemy as cards in this.) As Susie and Kris destroyed their home.

Ralsei will be found, and will say something to direct the fault to Susie, maybe something like "you weren't suppose to shut the fountain. How could you do this?" And of course Susie will begin to understand where this is heading. This is really all I have for the theory part.

Extra:

Why will Noelle be dragged into this?

Toby has confirmed she will play a much larger part in the next chapter. Even possibly teasing a dark world concept.

Small evidence:

Ralsei changes the story of the prohecy.

He originally says how a monster, human, and darkner prince are needed to deal the fountain, but then says later on that only the human can.

Neither monster or darkner are actually needed in any situation, aside from getting past cards. But had there been a situation that they wouldn't fight, it would be find with the human alone.

Once again kinda story based but:

A reminder. If it does end up with Ralsei shifting the blame on Susie and Kris.

Remember Lancer is the only one who heard Ralsei tell the prophecy to Susie and Kris.

It's obvious where I'm going with this.

No one would actually believe Lancer due to him being friends with Susie.

However, It also hints that it could influence two possible people. That being Seam and Rouxls Kaard.

Rouxls Kaard has a strong relationship with Lancer and may believe his word. It's also likely Rouxls Kaard will play a much bigger part in the next chapter. Along with Seam and Noelle.

Seam openly states he has no care for what happens, and actually alike to jevil, despite them taking it in complete different ways, is nihilistic.

But likely wouldn't help someone who destroyed people's home unless convinced by someone else.

Which is actually fairly interesting. As they are two characters with a gaster like design. (Going off the belief of mystery man as gaster.)

Theres a lot of implications in my opinon at the very least of Ralsei not being Loyal.

Ralsei doesent actually do anything to prove loyalty to the group.

Ralsei seems to be too much in Kris's Favor, as if he were trying to make sure he convinces you no matter what, going and even saying hes fine with you hitting him along the journey.

In general there has to be a lot more to Ralsei than "fluffy boy." Since I do kinda have doubts of toby making a character that's overly pure.

Now this is something completely directed off of Ralsei but I want to add it.

For the first chapter, fighting may be the actual route.

In the end, everyone will feel betrayed. Making no difference on your actions. The king will probably not be imprisoned. Lancer will be shamed.

But theres a key difference.

Jevils battle.

For those who didnt notice, but I'm sure most have. Not only does Jevil give you a different item whether ir not you fight him, but theres a major difference on his point in the story.

Pacifying jevil:

"Take this and do your strongest!"

"Take Me and do you strongest!"

Pacifying, also results in him saying that he'll sleep for the other 100 years, hinting at him not being in chapter 2, only mentioned.

So as implied, its likely we'll see some interactions with seam if we get JevilsKnife.

Along with this, I doubt we'll be able to pacify in the next chapter and it'll be harder to act, as seam states Jevil was only a taste of what we'll face, however we will likely still be able to spare.

Okay so that's my theory, that you kinda wasted time reading. I'm really not confident with much of this. Leave any debunkers or if you have evidence for this in the comments.

This theory is mostly for Undertale but also for Deltarune

Ya'll know Gaster...?

He was shattered by "his own creation"

Into PIECES.....

So my theory is Gaster is Sans and Papyrus

I can prove it. so a person once did a test about half brains

And figured out that the left brain is where the smart part is with numbers and stuff

The right brain is where the emotions and some other stuff are

Well... Papyrus has a lot of emotions

When sans always smiles

Papyrus is all with emotions and stuff

In undertale in the game when you we're doing the puzzle to be friends with sans n papyrus sans had a puzzle with numbers..

While papyrus had a maze..

We know Papyrus is pretty dumb , yeah?

So that means he's the right brain of Gaster

And sans is the left brain of it

TO PROVE IT EVEN MORE

Sans always uses his left arm to hold stuff and scratch his butt

While we see Papyrus use he's right hand to scratch his head.

Tell me in the comments why u think this theory isint real

So ya'll know about jevil , right? and nobody knows why he's locked up. my theory is jevil is Kris's old imaginary friend.

We all know the dark world is kris's imagination

When you start there's chalk dust...

And how ralsei is just like asriel , who went to college

Jevil is locked out of the dark world for one reason(my theory)

Jevil is locked out of Kris's mind. as the imaginary friend that gave Kris happiness.. turned evil cause Asriel left for college.

That broke Kris's heart and made kris's imaginary friend(Jevil) Go insane and evil

Just like Kris's feeling's when asriel went to college

Ok. Let me explain. I’ve been thinking about the game recently and thought it strange that you can never “kill” any of the monsters. That got me thinking. “Are they really monsters?” Can they turn to dust like monsters in the light world?

I think I may have a theory. I re-played Deltarune looking for clues and I got... multiple things.

1. When Susie goes below 0 HP, she doesn’t turn to dust, despite the fact that she’s a monster from the light world, where they should die while hitting 0 HP.

2. The prophecy foretells “A human, A monster, and a prince of the dark.” Telling is that Ralsei is NOT a monster. Otherwise he could fit within the second category instead of the third. Kris is the human, Susie is the monster, and Ralsei is the Prince.

3. It is impossible to dust a single creature in the dark world.

4. Top cake man describes Susie as “A beast, hunched on the table, eating the cake like an animal.” Instead of saying “Some monster was hunched”

As far as I can tell, Ralsei, along with the rest of the creatures in the dark world, aren’t Monsters. If you have an argument against, or for this, I’d love to hear it.

Fact 1: During the introduction sequence, the speaker abruptly shifts from a capslock voice on a glowing background (linguistically similar to You-Know-Who and using the 666 font configuration) to a normally capitalized voice on a black background (without similarly notable speech patterns and the "2" font).

Fact 2: On the loading menu, completing the game similarly changes from a green capslock voice (again with similar mannerisms and vocabulary) on a black background to a normally capitalized voice on this background:

Fact 3: Kris rips out the player SOUL, draws a knife, and flashes a red eye in the ending.

Fact 4: Using the "667" font, another glowy capslock voice appears on the game over screen and offers the choice between loading the save (or "TRY AGAIN", or "PERSIST") and... not.

Fact 5: The Knight has the ability to open Dark Fountains and commands Spades King.

Fact 6: Spades King tries to kill you and may succeed.

Fact 7: Various characters in Hometown comment on how Kris is usually more introverted.

Those are my facts. Here come my conclusions (and a couple of assumptions I wanted to put in the open).

Conclusion 1: According to Fact 5 and Fact 6, the Knight wants to kill you.

Conclusion 2: According to Fact 4 and Conclusion 1, W. D. Gaster is not the Knight or allied to the Knight. At worst, he is a neutral observer.

Assumption 1: There is no reason for Gaster to fake an identity change upon completion of Deltarune.

Conclusion 3: According to Assumption 1, the identity change described in Fact 2 is legitimate.

Assumption 2: Sufficiently similar events are likely linked.

Conclusion 4: According to Assumption 2 and Conclusion 3, the identity change described in Fact 1 is also legitimate.

Conclusion 5: Despite Fact 7, it appears that Fact 3 (the eye especially) is out-of-character for Kris and was likely caused by a third party. I admit this is heavily opinionated since Kris still has so little definite personality.

Conclu- ah forget about it. I'll just type up my narrative. (Relevant facts/conclusions in [])

Gaster is in the bunker. [Conclusion 2] Gaster has a device that lets him communicate with our world. Gaster has a device (possibly the same device) that lets him create SOULs. Gaster used this/these device(s) to post on Twitter and summon the player in the form of a SOUL. Gaster has a device (definitely not the same device) that lets him create vessels. Gaster intended to use this device to further communicate with the player, but was interrupted by... somebody [Fact 1, Conclusion 4] (probably a new character, possibly the Knight). "Somebody" hijacked the process and forced the player into Kris as an alternative vessel, possibly taking the customized vessel themself. Gaster at this point may or may not be aware anything is up. The entire Dark World happens (I don't personally think it's related to Gaster) and Susie gets her character development. At night, "somebody" takes control of Kris also [Conclusion 5] (poor kid) and ejects the player SOUL [Fact 3] to strengthen their control on time [Fact 2, Conclusion 3] and/or the general collection of all humans nearby.

Now somebody please give me a better theory than this half-witted poorly-cobbled pig-smelling concoction.

In the Config menu while in the Dark World, there is a "Simplify VFX" option that can be toggled ON and OFF. Does anyone know what this setting does? Thanks in advance.
