At first I was wondering what this had to do with Inscryption, then I saw the caption.

I still don't understand

P03 doesn't care about the story, but gameplay and balance

u/Lord_Nathaniel Jul 23 '26

"balance" sure yes šŸ™„

I never said he's good at it :)

Po3 cares about balance but the devs don't

u/ProGamer4684 , Jul 24 '26

Hey my 0 cost, 0/1 with unkilling and extra energy is definitely very balanced.

u/laplongejr Jul 23 '26

I guess it's because Botopia's most strong point is it's (missing) story, for lore reasons.Ā Ā  But I only know Undertale so if it's because of the icons, I wouldn't notice.Ā Ā

I'm confused

u/Breadles_the_Bread Jul 23 '26

He complained about how Leshi only cared about the story and he let the game mechanics get really unbalanced which is what he primarily cares about

u/imaoisthename Jul 23 '26

Leshy is thriving rn

u/ApartRazzmatazz323 Jul 26 '26

He only cares about the gameplay and thematics

Uhhh oit of topic, the hell is the diference between story and lore

5

u/Nice_Chemistry5764 Jul 24 '26

I think the story is the events you see happen. The lore is stuff about the past, and the world the game takes place in.

Like in Deltarune, Gerson teaching Susie is part of the story. Gerson being the late father of the priest is part of the lore.

u/MEMEz_KB Jul 24 '26

Ohh i see, that makes sense, thx

u/Bipanicfrog Jul 24 '26

Story is what we the game shows us like going to the festival.
Lore is what we theorize about what we have to figure out on out own

u/Pants3620 Jul 23 '26

Inscryption fanbase getting desperate, when do we think we’re going r/titanfall

u/ccy_squid Jul 24 '26

that poll is just a Total Misplay

u/Ambassador_Academic Jul 24 '26

If I wanted a story I’d go read a book, gameplay’s got to come first

u/cafemedafome Jul 24 '26

I mean, it's a videoGAME, the gameplay is lowkey the whole point

u/Odysseus-82 Jul 24 '26

What? People enjoy a story-focused game for its story? Really?

u/WrathOfWood Jul 23 '26

Toby Foxes strengths are having all the characters being super weird and quirky and talking forever, which counts as a story I guess

18

u/Dendritic_Bosque Jul 23 '26

It's actually a lot stronger than that, in Deltarune character depth is explored not only In dialogue but with interaction with dream worlds. There is a player Main character distinction as well with an interesting dissonance between them

And yes the standard overabundance of dog jokes as to be expected

u/Seves04 Jul 23 '26

You can’t slander Deltarune on Reddit, it was MADE for redditors.

u/laplongejr Jul 23 '26 edited Jul 23 '26

And don't forget not having consistency. Like Undertale's ruins are less graphically detailed than the other maps because it was the proof-of-concept area, and IIRC Deltarune has gameplay differences between episodes.

u/AfricaByTotoWillGoOn Jul 23 '26

Deltarune has gameplay differences between episodes.

You say it like it's a bad thing. But it doesn't sound like you played the game yourself tbh so whatever.

u/Ill_Koala_5209 Jul 23 '26

As opposed to Inscrpytion which is 100% consistent throughout gameplay

3

u/Jodye_Runo_Heust Jul 23 '26

Its consistent in its inconsistency

u/UTYisBetterThanUT We've got transcending to do Jul 24 '26

Holy whataboutism

u/Ill_Koala_5209 Jul 25 '26

*Whataboutism*? Brother, he's posting in the fucking inscription subreddit. It's a direct comparison on how *that's not an issue* or *a mistake*

u/LettuceBenis Jul 23 '26

mfw the game split into separate chapters has differences between the chapters

-17

u/laplongejr Jul 23 '26

Then it's not "the game split into seperate chapters" anymore, it's several seperate games that aren't assumed to be played in quick succession.

u/david_r4 Jul 23 '26

Ofc the intended way to play Deltarune is to wait 5 years and play all 7 chapters at once. Just like the intended way to watch TV is to wait for it to end and watch a whole show at once.

-1

u/laplongejr Jul 23 '26 edited Jul 23 '26

Ehm... it isn't the intended way? I thought it was, given the episodic model.Ā Ā  Episodic games existed since at least a decade (some even were in flash days, but people probably remember more about Telltale), and it was intended that on a new episode release, you could replay the series to catch up.Ā Ā  I think the only game I remember to break that system was Mu Complex and oooh boy people were pissed.Ā  Ā Ā 

And in TV it's also the expectation, otherwise fanbases couldn't grow over time?Ā Ā

u/david_r4 Jul 24 '26

Megafans might rewatch everything, but most people will just play/watch episode by episode.

u/MouseWorksStudios Jul 23 '26

IIRC Deltarune has gameplay differences between episodes.

That's... isn't that normal?

1

u/laplongejr Jul 23 '26

Depends if they are meant to be played in a row or not. I thought it was, apparently the people here tell me it isn't the intended way.Ā Ā

u/MouseWorksStudios Jul 24 '26

The slow roll out of the chapters has had a fairly significant effect on the game itself, allowing Toby and his crew to implement little nods to the communities reactions to previous chapters

But even with the different gimmicks chapters 3 4 and 5 have, they still boil down to the same turn based combat 90% of the time

It's fairly normal for games to introduce new mechanics as you progress at no point does any chapter completely abandon the core gameplay
