Yeah, I'm pretty confident we aren't all malicious. Wasn't mad, but pardon any drama, please. I found the jokes a bit amusing myself, but sometimes I just feel bad for MatPat with his reputation on this wiki & making someone a meme over something embarassing they maybe did. So yeah.... Change of topic.

Anyway, that feat might still be a quantifiable reaction? Do we have any Speed ratings basis for the 'verse? (I'd assume currently not much higher than a typical adolescent, given one's an adolescent.)

Thinking on it, one option for a reaction feat might be Kris dodging Lancer's attack while going down that huge slide. Then again, who knows if the timeframe is long enough for a teen to even reach terminal velocity.

Maybe one could also scale Kris's movement speed to the travel speed of the Rudinn attacks on the way to the castle?

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

Pretty sure the feat is still at least subsonic+

 

[Iapitus_The_Impaler]

Oh my God, I just realised Lancer is like a fusion of Papyrus and Sans

 

[Starter_Pack]

All of Papyrus' energy, with Sans', uhh, height.

 

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

That is not supersonic. The sound would need to travel thrice the distance susie would need to.

The sound DID travel thrice the distance Susie needed to.

And color pallet, and I guess aloofness

 

[Super_Ascended_Sean_Pazdera]

For some reason I want Deltarune Frisk to be sort of a mentor figure to to Kris, kinda in an All Might sort of way. Or at least a team-up fight like at the end of Dead Rising 2.

 

[Andytrenom]

My calc for Susie's speed. How does it look?

 

[Apatheticskell]

The result was disappointing but the calc was great.

 

[Jimboydejuan12]

Those ignored Matpat theory nothing like that.

 

[Apatheticskell]

Why Sans is above Our tiering System.

 

[Magi_Hussie]

@Andytre "Meaning, distance moved by Susie is 0.18 times the distance traveled by the soundwaves."

This may need more elaboration because usually if an attack or projectile is targeted at something else and you try to stop it in time using your movement speed, then you should be considered faster than the attack itself.

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

Uh, not really. If I see someone throw a ball ten meters away from me, to my side by one meter, I need to only be a tenth of it's speed to parry it.

 

[Imaginym]

Unrelated to the speed topic, watching a video on Youtube, I noticed that in the room where Kris can get the egg from the man behind the tree, Kris will be alone, even if Ralsei &/or Susie were with Kris in immediately prior rooms.

So what's the significance of this room -or the man in it?- making Kris be alone, just to take an egg that, other than slightly increasing poor Asgore's food supply, has no known use so far?

 

[Magi_Hussie]

@Ricsi Parrying only & moving your entire body and then perform an action right after are 2 different things.

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

Exept my exemple uses moving your body to the ball and then parryinng.

 

[Magi_Hussie]

@Ricsi You don't need to move your entire body to parry, you only use a defensive tool/object/weapon or an appendage to parry.

 

[ApiesDeathbyLazors]

@Ricsi You don't need to move your entire body to parry, you only use a defensive tool/object/weapon or an appendage to parry.

Unless you're jumping infront of a friend to parry an attack.

 

[Magi_Hussie]

@Ricsi You don't need to move your entire body to parry, you only use a defensive tool/object/weapon or an appendage to parry.

Unless you're jumping infront of a friend to parry an attack.

In that case, yea.

Cool thing when you enter the Hospital in tow.

You can interact with a sliding bead toy, and the text box says that the "beads march grimly along their set path", because with these toys you can only move the beads in one direction.

And if you look at it, there are three paths: A blue, a red, and a green one. Matching Kris, Susie and Ralsei.

Possible symbolism reinforcing the theme of the game that choices don't matter, or just a coincidence? Knowing Toby Fox, I doubt it's the later.

 

[Phoenix821]

Deltarune has a tv tropes page

https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/Deltarune Also according to the Tv tropes page
In the ending, Kris tears out the SOUL from their chest so they can have free will and a choice of their own.

What do you think.

Huh...nice catch there Matt.

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

Even toys in the goddamn hospitals are grimdark.

Me when Azathoth vanishes from the wiki.

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

Didn't even know until Deltarune that "Azzy" was Asriel's canon nickname.

 

[Apatheticskell]

I thought Azzy was Azathoth.

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

Me when Azathoth vanishes from the wiki.

This actually made my night.

 

[Andytrenom]

The whole "bully who acts scary but warms up to others over time" thing is a pretty common trope but I really liked seeing it play out here.

Did someone find anything in particular that was done differently than other examples of this trope?

 

[Azathoth_the_Abyssal_Idiot]

The whole "bully who acts scary but warms up to others over time" thing is a pretty common trope but I really liked seeing it play out here.

During my "pure fight" run (except for battles where you actually can't win by fighting), Susie had a pretty nice moment during the "Kris and Ralsei vs Susie and Lancer" battle. If you keep wailing on Lancer, Susie actually yells out for you to stop attacking because she's worried you'll hurt him.

It's a good little way of showing the type of person (monster?) she really is underneath before her big moments at the end of the chapter.

It's not Kris' fault.

Ralsei shouldn't have made the dodging AI on his completely motionless dummy so damn good.

 

[Magi_Hussie]

Who knew that Ralsei's dummy could dodge so good...

 

[BattleReviews]

What tier should the verse be tho? Will there be upgrades?

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

"8*"

That goddamn typo tho

 

[Alexcar3000]

Am I the only one who thinks Ralsei not wanting to share D$ with Lancer to be a little... "out of character" perhaps? I don't know why, but that felt strange for me.

 

[Ricsi-viragosi]

It will be 9-B if no better feats come up.

 

[Andytrenom]

It didn't feel that strange to me. I mean, there's a difference between being really nice and being willing to share your reward with someone who literally just tried to murder you.

 

[Alexcar3000]

He is always kind to people who just tries to murder him >>

 

[Kirby71]

Why is Azathoth's profile pic so Buff?! When i saw that Lancer face i was like "wtf", reminds me of squidward, too meme-ish.

Edit: wait why didnt that quote "box" dissapear?
