Who is DEVICE_FRIEND? What is his goal? Is he the main antagonist of Deltarune?

I'm in.

>>715221731 (OP)
The dark aspects of Gaster that broke after after he got shattered across the game files
While Gaster is a game dev who wants the player to experiment and find secrets, Friend is a gamedev who wants to rail road the player

Reminder that according to Asriel: You are a bad person

Noelle gun.

More pressing question:
Do I read to Ralsei or should Ralsei read to me?

>>715221731 (OP)
>Who is DEVICE_FRIEND?

>>715221982
So that's what she meant when she said she iced someone

>>715221731 (OP)
Seam testing us (as in us, the soul, he's aware of us) to see if we truly can change fate. He was in control of ERAM too and just playing dumb.

>>715221731 (OP)
He's the object that the killer used to kill Dess/Asriel

>>715221982
Noelle is just like me frfr

>>715221731 (OP)
FRIEND is literally Chara. Both call themselves your humble servant, FRIEND hands you a joystick to let you play the "original game where you decide what you want" and grind EXP in the sword route.

>>715221438
I certainly noticed, I was telling you even before the new releases. The fact that you can get a scarf or a pair of roung glasses from him should've been a hint. Thing is, Ralsei does not WANTS to become a real boy, he considers himself disposable. But he WILL become a real boy, there's a reason why he has a heart-shaped slot on his chest.

A moment of silence for the last thread that lived a very long life.

.....

God bless, Amen.

Post images and theories that have aged poorly

>>715222157
FRIEND is also the 9th rarecat sprite specifically
If the second Goner Maker voice really speaks like Chara, I'd assume it's FRIEND who discarded our vessel

>>715222251
She is.
Friend=Chara
Man=[REDACTED]=Grandpa Semi
Knight=Papyrus

>>715222241
>>715221868
I really fucking hope the chapter 5 schizo boss gives him a stupidly overpowered weapon, I mean literal "Everybody Weapon" stats but just for him. He's falling off really fucking hard but I'm just starting to actually like him so I don't want him replaced.

>first three dark worlds are made from Noelle and Kris's time together
god DAMMIT

>>715221731 (OP)
who knows

>>715222350
"Ralsei is Flowey" is still my biggest shame. My theorycrafting record would've been spotless if not for it.

>>715222405
what if friend took the goner vessel for himself so that he'd have a tangible body and instead shoved us in kris?

I'll say it, I don't really like black knife.

>>715222473
Welcome to Deer Society, they own this town, they own this story.

Kralsei will be real
My uncle works at Toby Fox

>>715221731 (OP)
He's the main antagonist, but Noelle will be the final boss.

>>715222528
Some of my animosity towards Kris would be lowered in that case and transferred to Friend. But it seems to be a leap of logic for Friend to be behind it atm.

>>715222396
tiny blu feet.

>>715222476
Why she Walten File?

>>715222405
Cats have 7 to FUCKING 9 lives.
Oh shit I'm not joking now, I think FRIEND is Chara

>>715222405
If it's ever revealed that FRIEND took our vessel and is controlling the Knight, then that means I was SORTA right in my pre-3+4 Knight theory.
I used to think the Knight was the vessel being hijacked by whoever claimed to "discard" it in the beginning.
It's funny to imagine I might get the same "kinda right but not entirely" treatment as Kris Knight.

>>715222581
This is basically suselle but reversed.

>>715222469
dark type enemies that are acceptable to fight are probably going to become more common
ralsei will likely gain his fire magic in CH5 and the new scarf will probably play into it.

>>715222473
At this point I'm convinced they are the real endgame couple, and I don't know if this is delusion, or a deep understanding of the story.

>>715222581
If there's one ship that fell from grace harder than Suselle, it's this one. There wasn't even some big controversy about it, it's like everyone just silently gave up on it at one point.

>>715222137
I really hope this is true and susie gets freaked out at seeing what a freak she is.

>>715222473
Kinda 4 since they both went to church when they were kids.

>>715221731 (OP)
I think he's ERAM.

>>715222157
Is there any evidence to suggest that the "demon" text is from FRIEND?

>>715222654
FRIEND is au Chara. Specifically the demon that comes when called. The brother of Asriel who likes chocolate part went to Kris.

Your reaction?

>Your reaction?

>>715222874
>Frisk gets split into Kris (skin/hair color) and Vessel (shirt pattern, potentially the leftover colors if it's only gray due to being a GONER)
>Chara gets split into Kris (shirt/pants color and shirt pattern, personality) and FRIEND (RPG grinding demon)

>>715222891
disappointment

>>715222854
It in the context of Undertale, it's from Chara. So if FRIEND speaks in the same way to the point of calling himself your humble servant too, then the connection is obvious

what

can someone give me the rundown on what friend is
ive seen a lot of deltarune lore but nothing much on friend yet

>>715222014
Help, which one should I choose?

>>715222743
Domming a taller female is such a hot concept

>>715222743
I came to the same conclusion. It just makes for the best writing.

ABUSIVE TORIEL THEORY
>the SOUL is a symbolic manifestation of the rape, emotional abuse and neglect that Kris regularly faced at the hands of Toriel
>In the weird route, you give in to the trauma of your abuse and become a bad person just like her
>you rape Noelle in chapter 4 and take her innocence just like Toriel did to you
>the red roots spreading when you start raping her symbolize the same trauma that Kris was inflicted with being spread to Noelle
>Asgore was also abused and mindbroken by Toriel, his Stockholm syndrome forces him to try and get her back but she just ignores him like he’s a discarded tool that’s lost its function
>Asgore hit Dess with his car in a DESSperate attempt to show Toriel that he has eyes for no other woman but her
>Asriel was raped and killed by Toriel and Sans, which is why Kris was so tormented at the end of chapter 4 when they were getting drunk and dancing in his house
Any questions?

>>715222891
Would suck. An official "Deltarune characters in Undertale" chapter would be interesting, but not if it's just repeating Undertale with Frisk.

>>715222802
I feel like it's never been more alive, honestly

>>715222891
I will personally orchestrate a murder on toby to a pack of wolfs and pitbulls if that ever happens
"Deltarune is an Undertale prequel" concept needs to be kil

>>715222891
If the bunker dark world isn't the most surreal shit Toby Fox has ever made I'm going to be disappointed

>>715223025
Its something that's been around since Undertale days. Also known as Gaster's hellspawn of a cat that Noelle somehow bought into existence through an egg and cat petterz.

>>715222743
He's spiritually balls deep into the Holidays for some reason

>the tall sink that was cut in half to create both sinks

I knew it.
Kris and Noelle rode a ferris wheel in their childhood,
Noelle and Susie rode a ferris wheel in chapter 2
Now it's Kris and Susie's turn.

>>715223197
Well, Asgore and Rudy ARE longtime friends so it makes sense that their families are close and so they spent a lot of time together. But Noelle was lying through her TEETH with that "forced" shit.

>>715223234

Kralsei is predicated on the player being very affectionate towards Ralsei and pretending that Kris is on the same page which we know is obviously not true. But this scene here where Ralsei puts his foot down and tell you to go to the fair with Susie just makes me thing some really bad is going to happen in chapter 5.

>>715223234
Don't know mate probably some receiver or something.
