i'm not active enough to get blocked or get on lists much but i do like sometimes checking on the most benign accounts on there
like everyone's darling supper mario broth somehow is blocked by ~2.7k people and is on a "furry and fetish art" list lol

i recently tried to use chatgpt for a small python script cuz i was feeling lazy and it not only did it call fake functions (standard fare) but it did not put quotation marks around strings (new to me)
the future is truly here

ui ux people at major companies just do random shit sometimes so people don't notice all they do is slack off
that's my thesis and no amount of counterevidence will convince me otherwise
(that or they're all in a cult whose god gets power from inconveniencing people but less confident on that)

damn, just like that
the mushroom kingdom has gotten a lot better since the days of wario x waluigi

i made a custom desktoptale noelle for myself using some sprites from deltatraveler
she constantly gets in the way so the grabbed (falling off bridge in section 3 iirc) sprite sees plenty of use lol

i don't watch shortform content because the frantic pace and editing makes me lightheaded but i imagine it's so much worse there too. don't even want to think about it

seeing someone else say this restores part or my sanity
everything is a Plot Summary/Explained or I Played/Watched So You Don't Have To or """Retrospective""" and I HATE I HATE I HATE
it's fine for inaccessible/obscure stuff but 99% of the time it's shit like spongebob or other online video series'

there are purely verbal mentions i guess. like lancer's ch1 blood bucket thing and the hearts donut. maybe those count too.

(oh wow compression messed this up on mobile. still readable if you save it.)

fuck it, have an infodump about it too cuz why the hell not. i think i got most of the important info in there.

deltarune is funny cuz its surface plot is perfectly fine on its own. but there is a whole iceberg underneath for those willing to look for it
e.g. i think it's likely that gerson boom is gonna be an important character in some way. but the casual fan would have no clue what i'm talking about lol

my very low probability idea is that's how you start the weird route
realistically it's not gonna get acknowledged or there is a brief moment of chaos before the ch2 darkners turn into stone or somethin

i said that assuming it won't be a shadow drop, but that's not impossible either. hm
guess i'd just count on steam's "wishlisted game is out" email, assuming it comes out when i'm asleep. otherwise just hope my first exposure is someone i follow freaking out about it right as it happens ig lol.

the moment it drops i am going on lockdown. logging out of all social media and youtube (maybe watching latter directly from channel pages searched in google if i need to)
i refuse to be spoiled by shitposts or a ch3+4 no hit all bosses thumbnail with alvin's stupid face in the middle

oh yeah, that's what i was implying (that they're not good) if it wasn't clear. just didn't have enough chars to rebuke the points in the same post.

some examples i've seen
"noelle should have been jealous of the susie hug in section 3"
"susie should like obliteration because she likes blood and violence"
"why does paula have a red soul if she's not from undertale"
criticism is important but so much of what's thrown at dtraveler is just stupid

deltatraveler is not perfect (nothing is) but as shayy put it, a lot of its hate feels forced
people will find one thing they genuinely dislike and it puts them into cinemasins mode where everything must be nitpicked and criticized no matter what
