Deltarune’s new chapters defy every rule of RPG logic

In Chapter 4 of Deltarune, players control Kris, who encounters a locked door, a step stool, and a green book. The intended solution involves using the step stool to reach the book and activate a switch, but players cannot interact with the stool. Instead, Ralsei acts as a step stool, allowing Suzie to hit the switch. The game features turn-based combat combined with bullet hell mechanics, encouraging creative, pacifist solutions. Emotional responses from enemies vary based on player actions. Notable moments include a turtle shouting at enemies and a battle that transforms into a roulette-style game. Humor subverts RPG conventions, such as a water cooler becoming an enemy and a game show hosted by a character with a CRT TV head. Players can design their hero, but the narrator humorously reminds them that they cannot fully project themselves onto Kris. The game consistently surprises players with its inventive mechanics and narrative twists.

EXCLUSIVE: Ads From Verizon, Shell, and Others Ran Next to Explicit Videos on Top Android App

Major brands such as Verizon, Amazon, and Popeyes found their advertisements appearing alongside inappropriate content on the short-form video platform XShorts, which has over a million downloads and promotes itself as a hub for "short and hot videos." Despite its 'Teen' rating, the app has been criticized for hosting sexually suggestive and racially offensive material. Google assessed that XShorts breached its advertising policies, resulting in the suspension of the app's monetization capabilities. Advertisements from brands like Shell, Walgreens, Microsoft, and others were observed alongside explicit content. In response, brands like Roblox and Puck have taken measures to ensure brand safety, while Meta has removed XShorts from their Audience Network for policy violations. The incident highlights the challenges advertisers face in maintaining brand safety on emerging platforms.
