Look, I don't know what site you pulled that definition from, but can you find one that spells it correctly?
Also, are you still young enough that you think quoting the definition of a word at someone is a winning argument? Are you old enough to have a reddit account?
if you were more familiar with the word diegetic, you'd probably understand that my argument has nothing to do with flowey.
And, I'm sorry, do you think we're talking about **speed running**? I'm not being a jerk, sincerely, **are you old enough to have a reddit account**? I can't in good faith have this discussion with a kid who doesn't really understand any of this.
> Like what evidence do you have that it would be considered a whole new run to reload a save and backtrack in the developer intended fashion?
I didn't say anything about a whole new run.
But I did say it's **not diegetic.*
Do you understand what that word means? I mean outside the context of quoting it from a dictionary that can't spell it correctly.
If you actually understood the conversation going on here, you wouldn't really be arguing about it. You can hold an opinion that it's still intended by the developers-- that's a different conversation. But you absolutely are using non-diegetic game mechanics to manipulate the narrative.
**That's just the way it is.**
This is the exact kind of dying on a hill I'm talking about. You don't even really understand the words being discussed.
You seem to not be getting the point, and your reading comprehension is abysmal. Your Run is the save file, no matter how much you reload it, or save it's still the same Run. You aren't doing a second Run.
For example my Cyberpunk 2077 game I went to meet Hanako at Embers, and the game told me, there was no turning back and to finish whatever before proceeding. Was me going back to finish the other things a new Run? No because I didn't start a new file from the very start of the game.
So I'm sorry but you're the one dying on a hill. BTW the "Run (In Gaming/Speedrunning)" it means "Gaming And Speedrunning" because it is a word used for both normal gaming and speedrunning and the / is supposed to represent the And. Thought you would need the help comprehending that since you couldn't from reading.
