My theories to "end" ALL theories (kinda maybe?)

Deltarune Discussion
1

0."Rules" in Deltarune differ from "rules" in Undertale - there is barely anything that suggests that Undertale and Deltarune has the same "laws".

1.Gaster DOES exist in Deltarune, but is fundamentally (i.e. in the context of storytelling) a completely new character in Deltarune (just like Toriel in Deltarune is fundamentally different from Toriel in Undertale).

2.The soul represents the player's connection to Deltarune.

3.The Eggs are just a completionist's delight. So are the Shadow Crystals.

4.Mike is not a character at all, but is Tenna's way of ordering everyone backstage. For instance, "MIKE, play the VHS!" is roughly equivalent to "HEY you SLACKING guys backstage, MOVE your a*ses and play the fricking VHS RIGHT NOW."

5.The Roaring Knight is NOT Asriel/Dess/Carol/Rudy/Kris&Noelle/an amalgamate/any other theory that suggests that The Roaring knight is a character that have already appeared in Undertale or Deltarune Chapters 1 to 5, but an ENTIRELY NEW CHARACTER, the specific identity of whom has never showed up at all. (Side Note: aaaaand Toby Fox might never reveal who the Roaring Knight is lol)

6.1225 means nothing except December 25th (Christmas) and a possible candidate to one of the codes to the lock of the shelter.

7.The Prophecy is a lie. It either scares people who saw it into following it against their own will, OR it can be changed (the Old Man is always right, I suppose!)

8.The one "ending" is the game ending (or, to the computer nerds, "taskkill /f /im DELTARUNE.exe" lmao)

WARNING: These are all only theories, and game theories, which are never subject to normal logic, are fragile. They may have their own faults, or even are completely wrong. But theory 4 and 5 suggests that maybe, just maybe, we are mistakenly making characters like Gaster(Deltarune equivalent), Mike and the Roaring Knight too mysterious than necessary.

1225 is NOT meaningless

no

js no

I think every single theory presented here is wrong except that first one.

Most of these theories have at minimum soft evidence that contradicts their premise:

Tenna continues to ask about Mike and talk about Mike as a singular person in conversations with Green Pippins/the mikes in chapter 4/5. I do not think this makes sense.

At minimum, there is strong evidence that SOULs do exist in the weird way Susie reacts after Kris and her dive into the Titan and the SOUL dispells the Titan:

* W... We did it...

* ...

* ... hey Kris, what's the deal with that red heart thing...?

* Is that... your...

What would Susie mean by this if souls didn't exist?

A theory requires evidence, decisive evidence.

(well. it doesn't have to completely decisive, circumstantial is workable, but just claiming something without even internal reasonings shown means very little.)

RC: also there’s also text talking about souls in chapter 2, it’s one of the ones!

RC: especially the books upstairs…

Smells like a certain Chat wrote these... Which might be false, but guilty until proven innocent

Someone hasn't seen the chapter 5 mike impersonators cutscene

I know there was a short period of time where some of the smaller LLM companies were hiring freelancers to correct outputs/troubleshoot incorrect information on their models, and a lot of the people working those jobs got punted out of subreddits because they kept asking people stupid obvious questions about videogames. The idea that someone is farming corrections from wiki posters so they can earn a paycheck (people have to get enough money to withdraw for these gigs) is unfortunately not completely out of the question.

Don't ask me how I know...

This meme has become a staple for me to use over here

tldr : there was a trend of people posting incorrect shit on wikis and subreddits so people who actually knew a game would correct it, so they could go back to their job fixing/correcting outputs in ai shit using said answers and get money

sonion starting at No.0 doesn't make you seem cool, it just offsets the numbers in an annoying way

RC: whenever I see/hear tl;dr I think of the earthbound holloween hack. It is a terrible disease I have been afflicted with

See, my equivalent thing is thinking gaster is going to have andonuts-isms.

"HE'S GAY?!"

Maybes!

16

That would be funny, but Toby said he doesn't like his Hulloween Huck

17

You can dislike the end product and still incorporate stuff you did like later.

Flowey's design in Undertale alludes to one specific small joke in said hack:

So idk why the idea that 'maybe if Toby Fox dislikes how the guilt-ridden scientist you have to attack for multiple turns while he begs you to leave him alone' was executed in the hack, it might come up again without the cursing elsewhere?'

18

No character was designed for Undertale specifically, it seems that all of them appeared elsewhere before :dogdance:

It's JOVER.

We're BIDONE.

That's actually one between many theories
