The Famicom Truth Bomb: A Deltarune Retro Analysis Addendum

Original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LdqOwde-tY Hello and thank you for tuning in! This was a pretty experimental format for me, but I really did want to follow up my first video. Most Deltarune videos are more literary, and there’s less to get concretely “wrong,” but since my video was mostly about the real world, there was a lot to learn from the community, and I really wanted to make what I was able to learn from all of YOU as accessible to the rest of the community as possible. Thank you all SO MUCH for your input! I’m actually pretty new to talking to, well, anyone about this game, so it’s been really fun, and I hope this is a reasonably entertaining watch if nothing else. If I've made any blunders in this video, I'll try and keep a list in the pinned comment! Regarding my next video, the script has already been drafted, but I’m really giving this one my best work so it’ll take a little longer in the oven. It’s purely an analysis of Deltarune and some themes that I personally have never seen discussed (though I’ll admit I didn’t exactly scour the internet over it). I don’t want to show my hand too early, but… I’m really excited about it. If you enjoy my more analytical discussions, I recommend keeping an eye out. Gosh, I guess I’ll keep it at that then! I’ve begun keeping a Moss Stepper Bluesky account for casual updates on my video production process, because I don’t really like the way YouTube handles Posts…they’re kind of invasive on the feed, in my opinion. All big updates will be posted here still though! That’s all for now, Moss out!
