this Line specifically made noelle a 10/10 character to an 100/10 character. it puts her whole life in both routes through a different lense. toby’s writing continues to get more and more brilliant when portraying such horribly real characters the way he does
genuinely amazingly written character and him questioning the fun gang's belief that castle town is worth keeping but not his world is something i NEVER thought of before i love it
Great example of why this Chapter was necessary actually, because everyone has apparently forgotten what Deltarune is about. It's not just some mystery box to be cracked open, but a tribute to video games as an art form, and an exploration of our relationship with them.
These guys have to be CIA plants or paid off by rockstar or some shit because I refuse to believe people are dick riding this hard for free because they played these games when they were 12.
I feel like this critique overlooks the reveal that Susie’s been staying in Castle Town, aka escapism land. Ch 5 starts and she’s alr there, everyone gassing up her date with Noelle and she even admits to sleeping in Kris’ bed
It’s actively clouding her judgement and priorities
