It's hard to believe that UNDERTALE is 10 years old. A beautiful game that had been my anchor throughout my childhood, words cannot properly describe how much this game means to me and so many others. The tears shed, the laughter, the joy, the love.

Happy Birthday to the game that changed my life.

10 years already... time flies by, and as someone who heavily self-inserted as Frisk when I was 12, I can't help but feel like they must have been growing alongside me. I'm already 22, I can no longer wear stripes...

Lots of close-ups below (WITHOUT the pages), because there are A LOT of details to seek

started watching deltarune device theory videos and mollystars has yet to mention umineko when they cry & may not . and its gonna make me go insane. you guys dont understand how much this whole thing smacks of umineko. like even beyond "what does it mean to love a fiction" and "game within a game" stuff.......out-of-bounds of the story being a sea? kris finding shards that seem to reflect an alternate world sometimes? bro...

[sporesgalaxy]

in umineko you are watching the game unfold and trying to understand what it means for the game parts to be a "game" and what bearing the parts outside the game have on "reality" and coming to accept the lines between real and fiction are never actually clear cut. but all this you get to analyze from an outside perspective, never making any of the moves yourself, that's Battler's job. then in deltarune toby said "no YOU sit down across from the witch and do some shit on the chessboard. good luck"

SO SO SO GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE

One of my biggest take-aways from finally watching device theory was that it feels like the themes Deltarune is getting at (especially with new info from chapters 3+4) are reminiscent of Umineko

Spoilers for Umineko and Deltarune below the cut

"What it means to engage with fiction" and the positives and negatives that can come from that engagement really harken me back to specifically Maria and Beatrice. I think one of the most profound things expressed through both characters is that a fiction created around reality, even when running counter to it or demonstrably false, can be a very positive thing and does not need to be torn down (in fact tearing down the fantasy is meaningless and cruel).

Engagement with fiction, specifically fictionalized selves in the roles of heroes, has already had positive effects on characters like Susie and Noelle. The first two chapters see them becoming better and happier versions of themselves through what is, in a sense, games of make believe. At the same time, chapter 3+4 is showing Susie potentially teetering on the edge of overindulgence, and I get the sense we might see the issues in moving from healthy fantasy to disconnect from the real world within her relationship with Ralsei.

As sad as it is to hear Ralsei cast himself as lesser and existing solely for the Lightners benefit, there's a kernel of truth in there - namely that if device theory is true, Susie needs to maintain a healthy grasp of the difference between the light and dark worlds. I don't mean to say Ralsei's belittlement of himself is the right path either, but insisting he's exactly like herself and Kris and would be best off interacting with the light world in the same ways they do probably isn't the winning ticket either.

[cherrimal]

Ralsei's "I'm a darkner" has the same energy as Kanon' "I'm furniture".

And I'm all here for it

Care for it and love it while it's alive, then eat the guts when it's dead

Women in umineko are all beautiful extremely complicated morally grey characters that you have to spend 70 hours with to even begin to fully see and all the men are like “wahaha I’m doing financial crimes because I love money!!! Wahaha I love my morally grey wife” and honestly I respect that in a writer.
