Man, I want to play this but I do not want to feel rushed. Doesn't help that Deathloop has its hooks in me. :( Guess I will just set up my blocked word list in twitter and hope for the best.

It will be interesting to see where this goes. As good as Chapter 1 was, some of it did feel like Toby Fox playing the hits, so to speak. Not that it is a bad thing, but it was very familiar if you played Undertale, which I think was the point. It wasn't until we got back to the Real World where things got very intriguing. Even with the stinger being resolved, I want to see where this goes.

Presumably Kris put the heart back in after he got the pie? I mean, the cage is called out as inescapable. That might be a point towards Kris doesn't mind the control that much?

He just really needed that pie.

Something that I haven't seen people call out much is that all the meta elements in Undertale had diagetic meaning as well as being fourth-wall breaks. The only conversations that were 100% directed to the player and not the characters were the Flowey and Chara monologues after the endings and those were as close to being 'outside' of the game as you could get without doing something like spawning an entire new window. Everything else had an in-character explanation, most of which boiled down to Flowy devolving into viewing the world around him as a game after going so long without a soul.

Assuming a similar level of narrative connectivity, the heart removal has some kind of 'realistic' metaphor going on as well as being a comment on gaming narrative/control. My personal theory is that it's representative of some kind of dysmorphia in Kris, we know they thought they were and/or wanted to be a monster when they were younger given the comments about the fake horns they used to wear, and it's implied that humans are basically on the level of storybook creatures to most of the locals which probably hasn't done their psyche any favors earlier. The heart would be their 'cover', so to speak, and taking it out would be their true emotions surfacing uncontrollably. I've had a theory for a while that Kris will start talking at a dramatic moment and leave the party to become an antagonist for a while, and pulling out their heart and throwing it to the party would be connected to that.

Hopefully it comes together quicker now Toby has the team together

IIRC chapter 1 was mostly solo and part of the last 3 years were hiring people and Toby learning how to be a project manager

reminder for those replaying chapter 1

the ball of junk in your inventory during the epilogue represents your dark world inventory, if you throw it away you lose all the stuff you just collected for chapter 2

Turns out that yes this is true, so don't do it for Chapter 1.

Chapter 2 does warn you that throwing it away is a really bad idea.

Anyone else getting these?

To those it may concern - there appears to be some kind of bug with controller input right now that's causing crashes. Maybe need to use keyboard only for now.

I really wish this game better keybinding options. You can only bind stuff to the letter keys. I want to WASD and have like enter and shift and stuff be the other options. It's insanely hard to move in battles with the arrow keys
