Deltarune episode 2.

[Maurice Raptor]

I just finished playing it.
I. LOVED. IT.
It's so funny, it made me laught out loud many times.
My favourite line is when a boss litterally stays "there are hot singles in your area" mid fight during a monologue. I didn't give the ocntext due to spoilers but it made me laught too much.
The game is, just as undertale, really good at managing having LGTB+ Characters, since Toby fox clearly understands that the correct way to treat those kind of chaarcters is to treat the relationship like it would actually go, being completely nomral instead of having characters go like "oOoOh YoU aRe LgtB AnD sTufF yOur'E rEallY bRavE" *EJEM NETFLIX* wich doen't mean they are brave, but it just implies the realtionship isn't normal, wich it is, 'cause if you write the relationship naturally, you shouldn't need to say out loud how brave the show/game is, the player jsut knows it if it's done well, like here.

Eh. Music is good. Toby Fox clearly understands how to implement aesthetic, yet still hasn’t fully grasped the whole original transcendental storytelling, as he still relies and draws inspiration too heavily on other people’s work for clout.
At least the games are still free, I respect him for not being greedy. As he’s an advocate of a collapsing hegemony, and with how long these episodes are taking to make, I really wonder if he’ll be able to release the rest of Deltarune before his whole worldview shatters in front of him.

Damn, that’s such a hot take.
I mean, I’m not going to pretend that Toby Fox is like one of the best writers out there, cause personally I do feel people give too much credit to his style of humor and sometimes edginess.
But the reality is that because a lot of storytelling ideas and cliches have been done by different amounts of people, it’s impossible to not take inspiration from other works. What’s important is the quality and the execution of your own variation of ideas.

I suppose. Though I do factor that since he is put on a pedestal, his work is expected to be extraordinary. This cult of personality he’s enveloped in, has a mass of consequences that affect others, so it must be cherished that he’s privileged.
