7 chapters?

[Ilishfox]

I know it only shows 7 chapters on the chapter select, but to me 7 chapters sound a little... rushed? I was thinking really hard and with the direction the game is going I can imagine being in the middle of chapter 4 and going "There's no way we're halfway through already". There's no proof against Deltarune having more than 7 chapters and there are so many possibilities with the game's unique story mechanics and such. I doubt it'll have 10 chapters, but I personally think there should be 8-9 instead.

it could be that the final two chapters are longer than the others. it could be that there are chapters being hidden from us. we don't know. this is just kinda of a "wait and see" thing.

You thought-a koopa worked alone?

Also the files named W, and D obviously are gonna spell W.D. Gaster as more of the 1 letter files are added, so there has to be more chapters, because W.D. Gaster is 8 letters, but that's just a theory, a game theory! (I'm sorry, I saw the opportunity to do that and I took it)

I'm pretty sure if you go sneak into the game files, there's some hidden 'Chaoter 8, 9, 0" sprites

chapter 6 has a lot of intermissions

a lot of people have argued those were for the game's intro (the deltarune logo and then a voice saying 'deltarune'), so Toby could figure out how to center out the chapter logos along with the deltarune logo. i think.

it could also just be a result of the program toby made it on or maybe he did plan 10 at some point but figured he could tell the story faster

It seems to me that there will be 10 chapters, not 7. and after that it's probably already 20,30,40 ... or finally the release of the game...

You do realise Chapters 1&2 are longer than Undertale right?
Seven chapters will be plenty of content.

tbf undertale has genocide, true pacifist, and a few dozen neutral routes that are what happens if you fail the first 2

7 definitely feels like the right amount, plus it also covers each of the soul colors if the pattern from spamton continues

Well then we just think differently. Eight feels right to me because for one that would be really cool and two seven doesn't feel like enough for all the potential dark worlds and story beats.

I have a theory that every chapter represents one soul of the seven cause there are seven and example:
tha chapter 1 is a opening to the dark world and the problems to solve which could represent bravery cause we are entering unexplored places and chapter 2 also joins the theory cause we are making stronger relationships (including the recruits) that could represent kindness cause we are making friends, etc.
What im tryng to say is that I think there would be only 7 chapters in representing of something BIG for lore.

I think that's probably true but I still think it's kinda dumb just to assume there will be 7 chapters because there are 7 soul colors. What if 8 was all the soul colors or like... brown or something.
