    Corrections:
    Aw crap I misspelled Salticibread's name at 12:19. Sorry!
    FAQ:
    Q: Wait where did you get the broom sprite? And the bread?
    A: Chrono Trigger (mop sword) and Kirby Superstar
    Q: What was wrong with your channel name?
    A: There's uh... racial implications baked in that name which I... don't feel qualified to unpack or bare. So I'm Bread now.
    Q: What about Ralsie's weird castle? And it's basement? And the doors?
    A: Too much to get into, the video is already 25 minutes. Ralsie's castle overlaps somewhat with another future topic so I'm saving it for that.
    Q: Why do you keep calling those dust piles? Couldn't they be soap-suds, chalk, baking soda, etc?
    A: Oopsie-doopsie! I forgot to mention it but those piles are labeled "dustpile.png" by the sprite names, so they are actually probably dust.
    Q: Why wasn't my positive comment in the Ending?
    A: Software/Hardware limitations. Shotcut starts crying when there's a lot of layers, and animated layers are even worse. It crashed several times making the maps from 2:20, because those are all separate layers instead of one big image.
    I just learned about keyframes and don't quite know what I'm doing with them yet so, about 20ish comments was about all I had in me. I promise your comment still fills me with Determination even if I don't find a way to include it in a video. Thank you for your support everyone.

      do you have any thoughts on the recurring concept of inverted colours
      examples i can think of:
      - the red and purple areas in chapter one have inverted colours (if you invert them they look like normal green fields and trees)
      - kris is blue, which is the colour human skin tends to look with inverted
      - susie and lancer, when lying down getting fanned together, mention they're getting a "reverse tan" where they get as pale as possible
      - the puzzle in queen's mansion where you upstage berdly has a weird flavour text that mentions "these dark bulbs cast a bright shadow on the ground" or something
      weird, right ?

    I kind of love the idea of Papyrus being responsible for some of the fountains, like the idea of this lonely guy with dreams of being a hero (and with no royal guard to project those dreams onto), shyly sneaking out after dark to create these worlds where he can be everything he wants to be. He's getting so caught up in the stories where he can be everything he has ever wanted to be that he doesn't realize the harm he's causing. It fits so nicely with the idea of the Dark Worlds as a means of escapism, and is such a fascinating way to explore Pap's character! Even though I'm extremely skeptical of the idea, I love it so much.
    ...Or maybe I just really really miss Papyrus.

      The liquid looks too thick to be water. From how the puddles at the bottom of wall-drips are shaped (good example: 4:13), i'd say it's about the consistency of something like honey, tar or thick epoxy - not water, as the puddles are clearly not flat, jutting out of the ground.
      Although on another note it could just be that we're shrunk in the Dark World and each puddle is just, like, one or two drops of water, which _would_ be kept together by surface tension.

    something interesting about the "eyes blinded by darkness" is the fact that theres a number of characters that have eyes or pupils that are hidden from us. kris and seam being the most obvious here but even susie when we first meet her also has hair covering her eyes at first. its not til the end of chapter 1 that susie's eyes are revealed to us. i dont think thats an unimportant detail

If Ralsei originates from his Grand Fountain, does that in turn mean he's made from purer Darkness than other Darkners? And if so, what does that mean about Kris and Susie? That they can somehow perceive stronger forms of Darkness than others can?

      hold on. susie's eyes are revealed after she agrees to follow the player's requests. "only eyes blinded by darkness can see the way." how did seam get one eye *torn out* and is the other (which looks similar to the "everyone" face flowey makes) original or a replacement? both of mystery man's gashes protrude from the eyes. "you lost it when you tried to see too far." if seam, blinded by darkness, can "see the way" (as in, has mysterious knowledge about the crystal holders), then can kris see the way too? and why does the glass item distort vision?

    I’ve always thought that the borders of deltarune are the darkness that Spamton talks about. On the switch version you can have dynamic borders that change depending on what area you’re at. When you go fight Spamton the borders turn black. And looking at them while Spamton says “it’s still so dark” makes me feel like it has a second meaning

      The darkness hes talking about is that hes still in a dark world "ITS STILL SO DARK", but he wants to go be in the light world, but unfortunately for him a body made by a lightner didnt help with that, thats what "heaven" is to him, for him to he actually "real" yet it was never possible, his set path doesnt ever make him something more than a secret boss, nothing more than a puppet

      I'm pretty sure all the Dark World characters know that they're objects in the Light World. Seam talks about their cotton stuffing & knows they're in such poor condition they might get thrown away. Queen gleefuly identifies herself as a computer. Pretty sure there are other cases too.
      It's not knowing they're Light World objects that drove Jevil to start harming others & Spamton to obsessively strive for freedom.... It's knowing that they're just NPCs in a video game. Just code & scripts.
      "IT'S ALL A GAME, A GAME!"
      If Jevil kills the other Darkners, or even the Lightners, it doesn't matter, they're all just lines of code, there for the whims of higher beings, to play & then abandon.
      & it was the Heart-Shaped Object that Spamton wanted... that is, US. We, the player.
      Spamton wanted to leave the game altogether. To be truly REAL, like you & me. But, that's impossible. So that's why his dream could never come true.
      & that's why Spamton addressed all three main characters (not just Kris) when talking about breaking their own strings. Because they, too, are enslaved by "strings" of code.
      That's why Ralsei didn't want to think about it... Didn't want Kris or Susie to think about it. Doesn't want anyone there confronting the fact that NONE of them are real.
      Even the Lightners, are virtual Darkners to us! 😶

      What if The Roaring is the game reset, or game deleting after the full walkthrough, but integrated into the story? That's looks like the idea of The Restart thing that me and my friends created for our Role play. That's the devastation of the already existing world, with destroying and killing everything it have, but then it all get rebuilt again, just like there is nothing happened. The Roaring can be the same thing, but... Without the rebuilding part. If it's really just the simple reset of the game, then it destroys the existing world, and just restore it into the same thing as it was from the beginning. But if that's the deletion of the game... Well, I don't have any idea about this concept, unfortunately.

      The Delta Warriors are said to come together to banish the Angel's Heaven, but only AFTER the world had already been devastated. They won't prevent it. They can only make SOMETHING happen afterwards, & we don't know what yet.

    How Darkeners transcend time ie, how they seem like they can have detailed backstories even if they are objects in the light world is in my opinion a form of last Thursdayism.

      Didn’t spamton and the adisons say something along the lines of enticing Lightners? This would mean that they had a sort of life before the dark fountain was created, a real life purpose, which was to be an ad that grabs the attention of people. It could also be with what Cool Gamer said, the dark world is simply a separate place connected to real world objects, or put in a different way, it could be that the Dark Fountain warps the real life history of the objects into a dark variation, maybe it could also be that the objects experience a sort of secretive history that can’t be seen from the light world, since again, dark world could be a separate place where their dark forms and dark history are kept

  • @stevo1922
    @stevo1922 2 года назад +385

    I really like hte idea that some of these areas are meant to be "out of bounds". Theres a bit more of that in the place where you fight Spamton NEO, because in the basement area it seems like the darkness around the rooms is meant to be solid walls, but then it isn't. The teacups just kind of appear in the black space next to the room, and at the beginning of the fight the tracks extend out into the dark space that looked like a wall.
    Also both Jevil and Spamton talk about freedom, so it's worth considering that these are OPTIONAL bosses, you have the FREEDOM to fight them or just go along with the normal story. And when you fight Spamton in snowgrave he says "you don't need me anymore", which could be because you found a way to break from the normal story without his sidequest.
    In chapter 1 Ralsei says that the adventure the three heroes will go on is foretold exactly by the prophecy, so if all of this stuff is kind of "ouiside" of the game and the game's story, then it is also going against the prophecy.
    On an unrelated note, the Jevil line about us being the ones who are not free is actually a bit of wordplay, Ralsei says "you are clearly the one behind bars", and Jevil says "doesn't seem so from here" because when jevil looks at the bars he sees you behind them, so he is always technically correct without any weirdness going on at all.

      and the way spamton neo's fight takes place on a railroad, and you can ride along the railroad technically for FOREVER and never reach an end... just like how out of bounds areas technically go on forever in vast expanses of repeating textures. like the backdrop to his fight, a blank city
      also on the topic of jevil living in freedom, it's true. when you walk thru that door, the only way out is to either die and reset your progress or defeat him, making a choice on which reward you get. you never get that type of freedom anywhere else. even when you open the door, you can walk away and not making any meaningful consequential choice. he DOES live in freedom, and thru his path is the only way to find your own.

    I dont think queens basement is in the cabinet to the corner, swatch says the neo body was abandoned with the rest of the corrupted data (which would mean its not physical like you thought it was) and the closet where "a large person could fit inside" is a much more likely place to be the basement, since its "filled with old electronics" and you can see old electronics everywhere on the walls in the basement
    It would also stick with jevil, if his basement actually takes place in the closet, which is to the left of the unused classroom, then it would make sense if spamtons basement, is in a closet to the left too
    I also think queens mansion is actually just the laptop and queens just the motherboard, since she says her acid river is the mansions energy source and the swatchlings and swatch are ms paint swatches and tasque manager is literally a task manager (or maybe giga queen is the laptop which is why its in the middle of the mansion?)
    But also, heres a fun fact, the basement face's files are for whatever reason put in with the GONERMAKER's (the vessel creation) and is labeled "DEVICE_FRIEND" just like how the choices in the vessel creator are labeled "DEVICE_NAMER", "DEVICE_APPEARANCE" etc.

    I’d just like to take a moment to say I adore your videos and the style of fun-loving speculation you bring, my absolute favorite part of games like this with tons of mysteries. All the work you put into this stuff does NOT go unnoticed, I’m sure piles of people love exactly what you do just as much.
    Compliments over, time for my own stupid theory on what’s up with the closet! You mentioned the eyes looking like the ones on the titans in Ralsei’s explanation of the roaring and the piles of pulsating dust at the start of chapter 1, but you never really put them together. What I think is that the dark world in the supply closet is the remnants of some kind of previous roaring or a failed roaring that was stopped before it could escape the confines of that closet. The eyes on the wall, more than likely a sign of the titans. The black stuff oozing from all those holes, pure, crushing darkness that’s been around so long it’s settled in pools and caves. All those piles of dust that moan when you interact with them? They’re darkners that turned to stone and eroded into dust with their life force still trapped inside. That would leave the town empty of all life but Ralsei, who’s obviously some kind of exception to the rule for one reason or another. If so, that explain almost every questionable thing about the goat boy. He’s so aggressively friendly and comforting not because he’s JUST lonely, but because he saw everyone and everything around him die. He’s traumatized and putting up a happy face, probably having dealt with this horrible memory so long he’s numb to it and just wants to move on and help the heroes whenever they end up coming to him. That’s why he seems so disgruntled whenever someone (Susie) does something un-heroic or not part of a traditional fantasy narrative, and why he gets ESPECIALLY upset when Berdly tries to make a new dark fountain. The prophecy is all he has to look forward to.
    TLDR: Your videos are awesome and so are you. The closet is the aftermath of a roaring that either happened such a long time ago the world just recovered, or it’s the aftermath of a failed roaring that only affected 1 area. Ralsei is such a weird guy because everyone he ever knew and loved has been dead for who knows how long and he really wants the adventure to go his way because the prophecy was the only thing he had to look forward to for the rest of his life.

  • @glennianheroes1383
    @glennianheroes1383 2 года назад +91

    so theres some things i cant help but mention cause this videos got me thinking back, through many things, and some might just help:
    so first off, japanese mythology: its worth noting the whole idea in general of the darkners is, quite obviously, HEAVILY based off japanese folklore's tsukomogami, and while im not well versed in the subject, i think i can safely say that you were right on them garnering experience while inanimate.
    as for the closet, looking closely at appearances, it seems its just a regular, dusty, long unused cabinet: the cliffs are a dull, grayed brown, as if coated in dust, the little eyestalk guys that wiggle are probably very tiny bits of mold meaning water damage potentially, and the eyes themselves, i think are carvings on wood, or something of the sort: perhaps someone stored research on the roaring in there, as well? that would explain a lot about it, and ralsei too.
    next, the going out of bounds, and abanonded theme park: due to the shape of doors in basement areas, i think all doors down there are mouseholes, which would also explain a lot more: a mousehole would lead you out of a room, into a space between rooms. between dark worlds. therefore, i think, perhaps, the secret bosses reflect something else in the building. perhaps, just maybe, theres some connection in the walls to the bunker: it would make sense, as electrical lines, sewer systems, theyre connected to one central point generally, right? so its not too far fetched to say that, either, theres some amusement park model or toy being hid in the walls or room for some reason, or theres one in the bunker, perhaps a model of the town during the fair in specific? theres a LOT this could be.

    Perhaps the closet is an empty room, and the Dark Fountain was created out of pure imagination/determination, hence it being made of "pure darkness".
    I had already recognised the similarity between the closet and Sans' room in UNDERTALE, but there are more connections between the closet and our blue skeleton buddy than I realised. I've always thought the "prank across time and space" could be that Sans' prank on us is to reference something that we haven't experienced yet.
    Papyrus, or whoever Sans' brother is in DELTARUNE, could definitely be the Roaring Knight. Perhaps he will wear a fedora too?
    I hadn't noticed how the secret basements in both Chapters are almost like out-of-bounds areas before. Since Jevil's prison area looks similar to Castle Town, perhaps Card Castle as a whole once had a similar aesthetic?
    I think that going back to the ?????? intro area in a future Chapter is very likely to happen, especially since it's so mysterious. It would be a great "Bookending" moment if that happened as one of the last parts of the last Chapter.

    Honestly, I just kind of assumed the first part of the darkworld (meaning the creepy hills and ralsei’s kingdom) was entirely separate from the rest and didnt have any real world component, since ralsei describes it as the original or main dark fountain. The first darkworld starts by entering that big golden door, so I believe it’s separate from ralseis kingdom or “MyCastleWorld”. The entrance part has lots of connections to the prophecy and implications of the roaring happening before.

    Great job as always, but i have to disagree on the light World counterpart for queen's Mansion. Imo, it's obvious that queen's Mansion IS the Closet in the computer lab.
    -If you check The cabinet, it says it's full of computer mouses and other backup stuff, which transform into mice in the darkworld. Cyber city has far more mice stuff than queen's mansion.
    -Also, the Ferris wheel goes from left to right, and you take it from Noëlle's Room. To reach that Room, you go up, not left. So that means that most of what made queen's mansion would be on the left of the Room Aka that closet.
    -the Closet IS full of electronics and what looks like data servers. According to swatch, the bassement IS where all the corrupted data is kept. That closet looks like the most appropriate place to store data.
    Speaking of data, queen's rooms/prison cells are actually just a Big data center, think about it you have hundreds of rooms which are all seemingly filled with data about hometown's citizens. We might not be able to see what's in the cabinet, but according to the narration, there's nothing inside it that would be able to hold digital data
    -Finally, don't forget that queen's mech is supposed to be standing in the middle if the palace until the final fight. How would it fit in a cabinet ?
    However, it could fit no problem in the closet, and that's what the line "a huge person could easily fit inside" refers to. Not the knight (why/how would the narrator even know about this ?)

      I don't know about their sizes, but something i'm pretty confident about now that we got ch2 IS that the more an object is important to a lightner, the more powerful the darkner born from that object becomes
      -Queen is the laptop computer, described as the library's state of the art computer or smth, meaning its the most appealing to hometowners
      -NEO is powerful because of Mettaton's hope (confirmed by swatch)
      Perhaps Ralsei's unexpected powers or his status as prince of the dark Comes from the fact he's an object of unfathomable value ?

    another great video! alot of things to think about. you always bring up connections that id never realise or notice its really awesome
    ill be honest one of the initial ideas i had about the closet it that it seemed like a kind of source of darkness? or maybe more specifically it seemed like a kind of Space Between. the darkness is unrefined, it literally is a sort of black goo, as well as the dust not being well formed, maybe thats what darkners are made of. we still dont fully understand how ralsei joined us in the computer lab, unless he has some secret teleportation magic, he must have traversed across something to get there, unless he just walked through a literal void of space i suppose. the background of the dark world closet is so vast its not that much of a stretch to say that it could eventually connect to other dark worlds right? chapter 1 was alot more straightforward seeing as ralseis world and lancers world was connected by the golden door which Literally represents a physical door in the light world.
    if we do imagine that area as a sort of Space Between, it could also explain why the basement areas with jevil and spamton seem similar. we are on the outskirts of their respective kingdoms (or quite literally in the dark bottom corners of the light world rooms) so maybe the areas start to sort of break down/make less sense in the same way. even any 'monsters' in these areas are strange, the weird waving things and the dust clouds, the strange face and the lightning plugs, they seem to be alive in some way but are they really like any other darkners?? theyre environmental hazards but its just like theyre there to just be there, not like the dancers in the forest or the people driving in cars..
    thats just one way it makes sense in my head, but there are still many assumptions you have to have for it to make sense.
    and i agree that the way you first enter the dark world is weird (like why is it not yet transformed, and who closed the door) but maybe that strange way of entering could explain why you ended up in the outskirts, and once you enter the normal way (just jumping in) you spawn in front of ralseis castle instead.

    Long comment ahead:
    Personally, I see the “closet dark world” as what happens when pure darkness, determination, with as little creativity as possible, combines, because there’s nothing there, no fun characters or even enemies to fight, it’s just those spores, which I think are those little springs that stop doors, is where all the creativity goes to.
    When we go to castle town there’s nobody there because of the low amount of things and creativity there is, the only thing that can manifest is whatever Ralsei is, for all we know he’s just fond memories of Kris’ fun times with Asriel, nothing physical, allowing him to cross over to dark worlds so easily. Also, only when toys and other things that were brought to life with imagination made castle town more than the home of the dark fountain, made from the bonds you made with the toys, making castle town lively.

    I was always thinking it could be the damp area of most abandoned closet rooms since they don't often get emptied to get cleaned out. With humidity sometimes spilling the paint if it had one and the wobbly thing can be seen as fungus or mold which some people recognize it as a threat.

    I think Jevil does follow through on his promise to let us join him in his freedom through his boss fight - it's the only battle in Chapter 1 where the choice between using ACTs and attacking leads to tangibly different results. I'm not certain that that's the intended meaning anymore, since Chapter 2 introduces consequences for the two options in normal fights even if you didn't free Jevil, but it's an alternate interpretation to the room he's in having any special properties.

    Something really interesting about the closet dark world / castle town is that if you use the shadow crystal there, nothing happens. It doesn't show you a light world counterpart or anything.

    11:27 Hey! That sounds like one of Nabstablook's themes when reversed! It's missing a few beats though.
    Edit: it sounds a little bit like Spooktune, on a relisten it's a bit of a stretch.
    Edit edit: The unreversed motif sounds like the first motif of Spooktune, while the reversed motif sounds like the second motif of Spooktune.

    Fully random theory that hit while watching this at 4am. I'd like to call it the trauma coping method theory😅
    Everyone keeps trying to potentially make Kris some sort of Flowey/Chara new chapter bad guy but just a random thought. Kris was over shadowed constantly by his brother, the dialog in the lightner world makes that abundantly clear consistently. When Asreal left for college and their parents broke up Kris was left alone to pick up the pieces of their life. What if they created the dark world as an escape, sort of like how trauma victim’s minds will escape or depersonalize the real world in order to cope. Susie may have been a bully to them, but she was probably one of the few people to show Kris any sort of attention that was solely based on them and their existence within the town. Kris invited Susie into the dark world. "See me and what I can create. This is who I am and what I'm capable of." In doing that and having Susie show interest and even have fun Kris decided to lock up their 'betraying heart' Because they were seen, and sometimes the heart will trying and lead us away from that joy, better to lock it up so we can hold on to what we have.
    But at the end of chapter 2 when toriel invited Susie in, why was another dark fountain created? One of two ideas come to mind, but the one that I'm leaning towards the most is that...Kris found peace in the places where these dark worlds existed, in the abandoned classroom with the toys, where there was no comparison to their brother, in the computer lab where Noel and them would study and do homework together, and at home, where Mom is.
    With Susie and Toriel there together, "let's create a fountain here so that the people who see me for me can be a part of my beautifully dark world"
    Because after all, why not?
    (Also random side thought, what if in order to create the dark fountain removing the soul/heart is necessary somehow? Like Kris needs to be an empty vessel in order to harness that power. I remember a theory that Kris's soul is the fused souls of Asriel and Chara, or potentially the player themself. Could removing the heart be an act of free will in order to create these fountains? We as the theorists/players know the consequences of creating too many dark fountains. But Kris wants...no needs these places to exist. They habe to have the heart in order to enter it, but in order to create it the heart and will of the player must be removed?)
    Holy crap that got rambly I need to get to sleep🤣🤣

    • @somerandomguy4766
      @somerandomguy4766 6 месяцев назад

      And if it is that then it would explain why the bad place gets removed upon second arrival because the bad area mainly reflects kris's depression like state and after sharing it with others and having a friend kris feels better and doesent find a need to ever bring it back.

  • @snowmoon1402
    @snowmoon1402 2 года назад +3

    I totally agree with the idea that they were "alive" even before the fountain existed.

I've just 'got what it takes' if you get my drift, ahah. Swagger." and i'll do a peace sign and fly out the window with my magic jetpack.

    Hey Hey Theory Time :]
    Papy's theme has been used in every Undertale trailer except for Deltarune. he's the only Undertale main character (other than Frisk, Chara, and Flowey of course but they probably won't ever appear-) to not appear in Deltarune. Goner Kid, a fun event NPC says "Have you ever thought about a world where everything is exactly the same... but you don't exist? Everything functions perfectly without you... Ha ha... the thought terrifies me." PAPYRUS'S CHECK MENU:
    *Papyrus- ATK 3 DEF 3
    *Forgettable.
    WHAT IF PAPYRUS DOESN'T EXIST IN DELTARUNE.
    That will make us all question who Sans's brother is if that's true then, but when you think about it, THAT'S THE ONLY THING THAT STANDS IN THE WAY OF THIS THEORY, goodbye-

  • @pompousproductions
    @pompousproductions 2 года назад +3

    Here's something to add to your work and maybe add to what could be future events in the story.
    The way I view the "school supply closet" in the game is as sort of a "Supply Basement". Where all the excess school resources are stored, since it's so dark and it's fairly expansive. It could be interpreted as a potential hidden hangout for Kris and Susie when school's not in session. (If the Dark Worlds can be explained as Kris and Susie playing pretend based on the layout of the room. Then we still need to explain what "Castle Town" would represent in relation to the Light World). It would also explain how Kris and Susie can bring Dark Worlders with them to Castle Town as the school wouldn't think random toys and computer parts would look out of place in a supply basement. Also, note that Kris and Susie need to jump down and float up to enter and exit Castle Town.
    Let's talk about Onion-San.
    Onion-San looks to be in a lake, a contained body of water. (Since a point about them from last game was that they wanted to be in a big body of water like the Ocean).
    Onion-San in Chapter 2 mentions they heard "parts of a song under the water" like "deep". Either that lake is REALLY deep or its hinting at something is happening UNDER the lake. They also describe it as "someone auditioning for their band" and "they recognize the song from the ocean". Sounds that can be heard at the bottoms of the ocean could very well be the ground shifting like a tectonic plate which causes earthquakes and tsunamis. It may be a rumbling like the Earth is preparing some kind of flood.
    According to the map of the town, the lake is just two squares above where the school is. So if there was some kind of rumbling or flood, it would first start disrupting places that are underground...like a basement. I view the dark fountains as somewhat literal, not fountains of darkness, but rather potentially a leaky pipe that's dropping water. Kris and Susie can be pretending this water can bring life to these inanimate objects. (This would also explain why there was an internet outage in Chapter 2, the "Dark World" was formed by an electrical outage due to a leaky pipe in computer lab. Also why the classroom in Chapter 1 is unused, because it was recently flooded and was unsuitable to teach in. Note how there look to be flood marks on the walls.)
    Now let's talk about "The Roaring". What's going to be a huge event in the proper Deltarune game, "Fountains of Darkness" will spew over everything. That could refer to water blasting out of holes and flooding the basement and potentially the town. The Dark Worlders will turn to statues (No one will be able to play with them) and the Light Worlders will be caught in a flood floating and swimming aimlessly.
    What would cause such a flood however? Well, there IS a big bunker south of the town that looks like it could lead UNDER the town. Under the town would probably the sewer systems which lead to various bodies of water. There could be some kind of construction project going down there and it's doing damage to the infrastructure of the town, which means if it's not stopped the whole town could flood in a huge ROAR of water.
    They say the "Titans" will be the ones to bring the "Roaring". Who would the Light World equivalent of the Titans be? Jevil is a playing card, Spamton NEO might have been a paper printout, Queen was a laptop, the "Titans" must have a Light World equivalent too if the Dark World is mostly pretend. (Right down to Kris acting weird at night or when water is running)
    Well who would benefit from a waterway construction project? The way I view it, Ralsei only knows what Kris knows. So that means Kris must have knowledge of what the roaring is. One prime suspect is Asgore, because he runs a flower business, and it's extremely close to the lake. (Makes sense, flowers need water) It doesn't get much traffic because it's so out of the way of the town center so he's not making much money and he may be planning to use a new income stream (heh) to impress Toriel so he can hang with his family more often.
    However, another suspect, one we haven't seen but Kris DOES know, would be Noelle's mother. She's in charge of the town, so she would have access to the bunker and Kris has either met Noelle's mother or has heard about her from Noelle.
    There you go, a good couple extra notes to add onto the supply closet theory.

    I mean... It almost seems like new darkworlds are connected by the basement darkworld where the town is. As long as the shcool basement remains a dark world the new worlds seem to kinda merge with them... which would also explain ralsei being able to go from place to place.

  • @shinygalaxy8837
    @shinygalaxy8837 2 года назад +3

    Excellent video! :)
    I'll just list my thoughts.
    The connections that the festival, the beginning area with the eyes similar to the Titans, and the secret bosses all have with each other is very interesting.
    I'm beginning to think that the Roaring will occur during the festival.
    And you pointed out a connection that Ralsei shares with Jevil and Spamton. I personally think Ralsei is a shadow crystal holder.
    Something I do want to note is that Ralsei and Gaster have connections with the Devil. Gaster is affiliated with the number "6", and there was unused Undertale text that said "HE IS DemonX". Ralsei is also the "Prince of Darkness", which I believe is a name for Satan. Ralsei also wants Kris, Susie, and himself to banish the Angel's Heaven. Meanwhile, Noelle has numerous connections with the Angel. I mean she is literally called "Angel" by Spamton, she wars the ThornRing in the Weird Route, and is depicted as Christ in one scene in the Normal Route.
    Jevil and Spamton also fit into the holy and unholy theming. Jevil, Devil. Jevil also says "MY HEART GOES OUT TO ALL YOU SINNERS". While Spamton seems to resemble a fallen Angel, and his dream is to reach heaven with Kris. Spamton views Jevil as a "rival", which is interesting. Ralsei also tries to make Kris forget about the Spamton NEO fight, but not Jevil's fight. I personally think there will be a conflict between Ralsei and Noelle in the future. Could be over the Angel's Heaven, or the Roaring. I personally think holiness in Deltarune represents freedom, while unholiness represents control.
    I know I made a lot of claims there. So I'll end it with saying that I love your videos! :)

  • @sagacious03
    @sagacious03 2 года назад

    On the topic of what's where for Dark World stuff, I saw a comment suggesting each Dark World will be at a previously locked door, which leaves the Upper Left Classroom, the Church, Toriel's Bedroom (IMHO, likely an exit point for Ch. 3's DW, if anything.), & the back door of Asgore's flower shop. Although that last one seems to just connect the outside; It doesn't go anywhere, it's just blocked in 2 chapters.
    Anyway, excited for this video! Will probably comment more later! Thanks for uploading!

    Here's a theory you can steal for part of a video "Rudy can only be saved by Snowgrave" I believe that in snowgrave noelle will become strong enough to use her healing magic to save her father here's how I see it playing out. In the normal route Rudy dies right infront of noelle I don't know why but I think this will happen in the church (it just makes for a sad visual in my opinion) but in snowgrave she is "strong" enough to use her powers in the light world and heals him making our grip on her iron clad. How did I come to this conclusion? Notice in the graveyard there is a space for another grave in the center, in snowgrave you kill berdly meaning we if Rudy dies in a snowgrave route we'd have 2 dead lightners and 1 grave that math doesn't check out XP meaning that if I'm right in a snowgrave route that spot will be for berdly and in a normal route it'll be Rudy's

    While, indeed, Sans never mentions his brother by name, we know for sure that Papyrus is present in Deltarune.
    In CONTACT, near the end of the vessel creation, you are to name your GONER.
    If you name it after a pre-existing character in the game, the voice will say
    "AN INTERESTING COINCIDENCE."
    If you name the creator one of these names, the voice will say
    "HOW INTERESTING."
    What are these names?
    "QC," "SANS," "UNDYNE," "TORIEL," "ASRIEL," "ASGORE," "JOCKINGTON," "GERSON," "BRATTY," "ALPHYS," "BERDLY," "CATTI," "CATTY," and, of course,
    "PAPYRUS."

    It's most fitting for it to be Mike than Papyrus, the knight, gaster, whoever else. Only other person associated with sales and being a big shot.
    More interesting is those useless emails that were printed out and the person who tried to log in to their email before the dark world was opened. (If you don't defeat Spamton, the computer closest to the recycle bin won't be a blue screen. It'll be an attempted email login screen -- "Someone tried to check their email, but the Internet is down."). Could this be whoever contacted Spamton, cut off from 'contact' with him because the internet went down?
