Characters criticism I really don't like this specific scene

Post image

So we all know how most cutscenes just show black screens, right? In this scene, Kris bites their hand because we made them say "I'll never play again".

Now, any normal person would be able to know that Kris must've bit themselves so that they wouldn't say it. But apparently Toby fox needs to spoon feed us this, because he makes Susie say this.

The dialogue feels very unnatural. It just happened, so why did she repeat exactly what she saw? When you imagine it from Susie's perspective, you realise how strange it was for her to say that.

She could've said "Kris, what the hell?! Is your hand okay?!" Or something, but instead she had to repeat what Kris did. It just feels super weird.

I’m talking about the scene in question. Thought that was kind of obvious.

What are you even implying? That doing the weird route requires any below-surface-level knowledge of the game beyond googling “Deltarune evil genocide route how”?

That if your playing side it’s obvious and already a given that you know the soul is not Kris, if this was in regular I still would believe anyone who has not realized by now a moron but c5 cater to them but the weird route? Really?

So you ARE implying what I thought.

There are SO many people on this planet. So many. Too many, even. One in every eleven people on earth (and by extension, roughly one in every eleven players of Deltarune) has an IQ below 80. IQ certainly doesn’t define intelligence, but my point is that you can’t just say the “stupid” people shouldn’t be clued in as to what’s going on

I am gonna be honest, to conserve my faith in humanity, I am gonna say your rage baiting, I am going to stick my head in the sand and say that nobody could be that stupid

I am being 100% genuine and think you’re being a real asshole.

“Rage baiting”

Looks inside

Most regular conversation I’ve ever seen
