Do you ever think about the fact that this eight year wait is not for an entire completed game but in fact for just 4/7ths of a game and that the full game will essentially have a 10 to 12 year dev cycle(optimistic).

Look I'm just looking forward to watching HBO adapt it in its entirety after chapter 5 comes out.

If I was paying to fund the game's completion and there were 0 updates I'd have a problem with it. As it stands, things just quietly continue to be worked on out of my control and various other forms of entertainment announce that Toby Fox is contributing to the music in some fashion. So on top of it being very hard for me to find the motivation to get angry over video games the way you've probably seen recently with Stellar Blade or black make samurai and female shinobi in the upcoming Assassin's Creed Shadows game (aside from when I'm having trouble with a boss or grinding an item drop for the 18th time in general I don't really get mad about video games) I don't have any real problems with it.

Yasuke, the black jesuit samurai, should be in every assasin's creed game.

Is there a lore reason that Deltarune isn't out yet?

For my money, Toby can take as long as he wants on Deltarune, as long as the finished product fulfills his dream for it. This is an auteur project, and I’m happy to wait as long as it takes to see it brought to fruition - but if it ends up being rushed or compromised, then I’ll be mad about how long it took to be disappointed.

It will be more real than Barkley 2, in that it will exist at some point in the future in a playable state. Also, there's other games to pass the time and I really don't care as long as everyone he's working with is getting paid for their time.

Starting with remaking spirit master tho since i am still learning Godot 4. Barkley Gaiden Gaiden 2 comes after that, picking up after the end of Barkley Gaiden Gaiden (which, just to keep track, happens after barkley 3, which was the fake barkley 2) After that I will blackmail Romero with photos from his office Christmas party until he lets me do Keen.

It's hard for me to get mad at how long DELTARUNE development is taking when I know the game will be a 11 out of 10 and will dominate every corner of the internet I visit with cool video essays, alternate story path info, soundtrack releases, hidden detail vids, tons of funny poo poo on here, twitter, etc and i will eat them all up, all of it for literally months

I want Toby to make exactly the game he wants no matter how long it takes because I got a feeling it'll be the last game he heads up. He'll obviously continue doing other stuff but I don't think we're gonna see another full Toby Fox game.

Toby made Undertale, he’s already hit S rank on his career as far as I’m concerned and can tinker away at Deltarune as long as he wants. Maybe it’s for the best that it’s the game dev version of a project car instead of getting rushed out or killed by VC or some bullshit.

Toby is the next GRRM and he will die of old age before the final chapter is released I don’t make the future, I merely know it

Having a game now would be great, of course. But I've gotten a banger soundtrack and more playtime out of the free demo than I have out of some full price games. It's easier to be patient when the dev has 1.2 successful games under his belt. I do question the wisdom of baking in a secondary creepypasta storyline when he's having delays in getting the game finished, though. Nobody asked him to do that, we all would have been fine with the No Mercy route being a one-off in Undertale.

I'm pretty sure that the creepypasta storyline is both: A) A big part of why there's delays at all, in that all the different branching paths you can take build up the further you go (despite the game's insistence that your choices don't matter). B) A necessary part of the grand finale that Toby's been working backwards from.

I mean, has Toby ever said that about the game as himself? Like, there's stuff in the game and stuff on the game page saying that, but it's always said in the context of the meta things it's doing. The narrator saying that your choices don't matter, and that being tacitly disproven in-game, just means that the narrator is a character and that that character is wrong.

It seems like it basically takes like a year and a half to make each chapter (sorta). Chapter 1 took well more than that (it was 3 years between Undertale's release and its release) but also that project involved less people than Undertale itself did. Half of the 3 year gap between that and chapter 2 was spent shopping around for a new engine (and on the productive side of things, writing out the first draft of the entire rest of the game's script) with the 2020 status update confirming that chapter 2 didn't start proper development until April of that year. And while it was roughly 2 years between chapter 2's release and the newsletter that confirmed that Chapter 3 was now "content complete", the first year of that period was spent working on stuff from all of chapters 3-5 at once.

it's also possible that things like the side b route won't be continuable in chapter 3. easy to draw up a conspiracy theory about this; the plan to release the chapters in a group up to 5 is because the bad route skips ahead to a "worst" ending, and not being able to continue because that part isn't available would be a pretty big hint mind: this is baseless speculation the creepypasta poo poo feels extremely on brand for toby; remember how (relatively) out of place the true lab feels relative to the rest of the game
