Berdly was my first death in Chapter 2. I really like how his character changed and I hope he becomes an actual party member in later chapters. I'd like to have the ability to freely swap Susie/Ralsei/Noelle/Berdly for more interesting gameplay
@@samario7935 I don't see why not, as long as the party is together genuinely swapping who's in for combat doesn't interfere with the dialog unless its battle specific, at which point Toby could make scenarios that may seperate the party from time to time where it matters. Or hell, he could use that to his advantage and have different routes depending on who does what while in your party. As an example in terms of balance-- I can play through xenoblade with the best team comp for damage and ditch sharla if i want to, but it doesn't mean i have to.
@@samario7935 Maybe like the FNAF World game where you can switch parties. Imagine if we could have Kris, Susie, Ralsei in the first team and Noelle, Berdly and Lancer in the second? This could happen in like a boss battle where we need more people to help if the boss is too strong
the only death I had after reinstalling Deltarune,was in the basement where you ride the cups and theres tons of obstacles,besides that no deaths,I even did Jevil first try...but Berdly...HOW CAN I AVOID THE A+ CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN ME,THERE IS NO TACTIC AT ALL,IT IS RANDOM DUDE
Can we talk about the similarities between Mettaton and Berdly? -Both are fought in the “normal” route, and in order to spare them, you have to impress them -Both have special boss fights in the genocide route, with short underdeveloped themes because the battle is meant to end quickly, right before the final boss -Both are surface-level “cocky annoying self centered” characters who actually have a deep arc related to how someone they loved helped them and they feel like they’re using that person and don’t know how to approach the conflict (Alphys/Noelle) Coincidence? Probably, but I think it’s interesting to point out.
Chapter 2 was really just I big nod to mettaton neo. The main enemy was a robot with a similar build to mettaton other form, The hidden boss is called neo like mettaton neo, and the whole technology based aspect of chapter 2 is just vary mettaton.
and noelle who is very nervous likes susie who is brave and tough. alphys, also very nervous goes after undyne who is ALSO very brave and strong. see it now?
I love berdly so much, his halberd, his tornado, his design, and his attacks are really cool and badass. HE USE TORNADOS FOR FUCKS SAKE HOW IS THAT NOT COOL. HE ALSO CAN TURN HIS HALBERD INTO A SPEAR AND SHOOT BEAMS TOO I LOVE HIM
it's funny how Berdly went from just an a-hole, background character in ch1 to being a likable, fleshed out character with an interesting backstory in ch2.
I really like the way the Berdly character was designed. He was designed to be a total jackass with an interesting backstory. Plus he was a catalyst to making many Queen scenes extremely funny. He was basically used as a punching bag for Queen. Edit: I feel like this song perfectly reflects Berdly's personality too. It's kinda annoying but it's a little bit sad too at the same time.
The main reason it took so long is because toby was establishing everything about every other instalment, which is why later titles are going to come out a lot quicker because the story and the like is already established
ikr, gotta love that genesis chiptune or whatever the term is. The Sega Genesis / Mega Drive may have been a successful console and it may not be anything revolutionary but what it did have was fast processing and a distinct sound system.
“Quick! Queen! The script we rehearsed!” “New throne, who dis?” “Fine. *Ahem. bErDlY, wHaT dOeS tHe ScOuTeR sAy AbOuT yOuR iq LeVeL? I’m glad you asked. IT’S OVER 9000!”
Chapter 2 made me love Berdly way more than I thought I would. To see him actually admit his flaws throughout the Pacifist route, attempt an apology and then apologize again after having misunderstood Noelle's feelings really showed you that he meant well. Of course though, it's the Snowgrave fight where he drops all pretenses and definitely confirms he cares for Noelle far more than we'd have believed.
!Spoilers for Ch2's Alt Route! . . . . I like that Berdly got some development from 'smug smarty', and I especially love the change between normal and snowgrave route. It's incredibly subtle but he quickly sees the situation as serious and switches from the smug attitude to actually trying to save his childhood friend. Instead of targeting both he targets exclusively Kris until he is down. His attacks become more focused. Even his sprite loses a single black pixel that knocks away the smile off his face. I imagine if he isn't dead his perspective will have taken on a much more serious and protective one, but it's just as likely at the end of the snowgrave route Berdly is "fallen down". F for the bird nerd.
Yeah its really tragic that some people still hate him, especially after playing through that route myself. Maybe he's a bit of a nerdy prick sometimes sure, but he stood up for his friend regardless, and is probably brain dead now because of that. His actions there aren't of someone trying to use Noelle to keep his status as the smartest, but of someone who actually cares about her well being. It just makes his (unconfirmed but probable) demise more unsettling and undeserved.
I personally think that Berdley is permanently in a coma, since he never got out of the ice from SnowGrave. And if he went away alone with the Dark Fountain, then that probably means his consciousness is gone. Essentially, he's dead, but not actually dead.
He's essentially saying he's brain dead, which in the real world is also just considered dead. If Deltarune follows Undertale rules, he'll probably turn to dust once all his organs give out.
Berdly, the character who was either everyone's least favorite or completely forgotten in Chapter 1 Now has amazing boss battles, even better battle music, and a role in the game and plot. Truly an epic man.
Berdly…the second I saw him working for queen I knew he’d have a redemption part like Susie. I just didn’t expect it to hit so hard, he’s an arrogant egotistical jerk on the outside and a frightened little bluebird on the inside. I felt a real connection with this since I have been told I’m incredibly smart by my peers but because of some learning disabilities, not severe but enough to make things a bit tough at times, I don’t feel like I really am. Expectations are high for me and that’s terrifying…it’s why I resonate with Berdly so much since he’s in a similar situation and I’ve never had that connection with a character before.
I swear...every time I do software, program, python or any kind of technology study test, I will listen to this music while doing that test....IT FITS SO WELL!!!!
Berdly is just so Ironically Cool and unironically cringe that he actually became Unironically Cool, you know what I'm saying? Fire design, amazing theme, an amazing Weapon and an actually hard fight with some attacks actually being pretty creative (like the spear one for example). I'd say Berdly is one of the best characters in chapter 2, if not in the whole game.
Yeah, it feels like the whole team made a huge effort for nubert and the relevance of him while berdly feels way smaller and non-complex compared to nubert
I thought he was going to be a Joke Boss. Berdly being an actually challenging fight, with a kickass theme and cool looking attacks was a pleasant surprise
my sister and I had conversations about chapter 2 in discord and every time berdly is brought up i intentionally call him the wrong name burgundy was my favorite one
even though he’s the butt of a ton of jokes, i fucking love berdly. his themes are all absolutely amazing oh my god. each chapter has been fucking phenomenal so far, so excited for what chapter 3-5 has in store
@@DNKG669 taking things one step at a time 3-5 are gonna release in one big lump sometime in the next couple of years so just waiting to see how his character develops
Why the Queen ignores this guy when he's so powerfull that he actually has to HOLD HIS POWER on his battles? His boss fight on Weird Route is so fucking difficult, and is much more a threat than the queen can ever wish to be
To be fair he's kinda insufferable at first Any power he may have probably doesn't mean much to Queen when she doesn't even want to be in the same room as him Noelle is still strong in her own way, but also doesn't drive Queen away
Man.. this chapter was so awesome! Chapter 1's ost tbh is a little better but the ost from this chapter is still amazing! This theme is my favorite battle theme. I'm so happy they kept Rude Buster as the main battle theme!
yeah, i think chapter 1s ost is a lot better. chapter 2s is still really good tho thanks to songs like smart race, big shot and cybers world. and tbf chapter 2 has only been out for a couple days so ive had less time to grow to love its ost compared to chapter 1
God, I love this guy. I knew I was gonna like him (I mean, look at that smug face), but Berdly is not only a good character, he's also a funny one. It's a shame we haven't gotten him to join our party and fight alongside us yet. Maybe we'll get even closer to him in a future chapter?
Am I the only one that was hoping to get Beardley as a playable character? Like, in chapter 1 you had Susie and Ralsei, and in chapter 2 instead you get Noelle and bird boy.
I can imagine that, Like in the queen fight where she captures him, instead she manages to capture susie and ralsei in his wires, and when about to capture Kris, he appears and cuts the wire (maybe with Noelle?) and says something cool Like susie when saving Kris from the King. And then the battle starts and his your ally Now I would wish something like that happened
@@mega6662 I have a feeling he will be in the party later, he still has to learn empathy and get past some of his narcissism before that happens imo though
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that. The tornadoes also definitely reminded a me a little bit of Wrastor so that might've had something to do with it.
It's probably safe to assume every chapter of Deltarune is going to feature a "problematic" character that antagonizes the party and needs to be swayed over time. Chapter 1 was Susie. Chapter 2 was Berdly. Chapter 3 will probably be Catti.
@@hasargel yea. i think kris opened and fountain because susie said something like "what if lancer and ralsei can join our world.' and because toriel called the cops, undyne might go into the fountain and might be featured in the dark world.
Maybe he'll become a party member in later chapters or something, seems like Toby ain't afraid to add new party members later down the line. Unless something happens to Berdly at the end, haven't finished chapter 2 yet.

@@M_Chen333 all that happens to the Birdman in genocide is he gets a broken arm (Spoilers) . . . . . . Now don't do the snowgrave route or he will actually die.
something I noticed about berdly is that you never really DEFEAT him with attacking. In the coaster battle, his coaster explodes. In the alley battle, he’s exhausted and tired no matter HOW you end the fight. Keep in mind that you and ralsei (with pretty weak weapons) in chapter 1 can knock susie out MULTIPLE TIMES if you keep just spamming attacks. Berdly takes a good amount of hits from both a full party (with super strong attack-focused weapons) and even more hits vs you and Noelle. I’m probably reading into this way too much, but if this isn’t a dark world-exclusive power up or something, then Berdly is pretty damn tough
The nerd reveals himself to be a badass as the city roars by, with the Dark Fountain you're trying to close looming above it all. Toby NAILED the atmosphere for this fight.
Pretty sure this song changed my life. Probably cuz this was the first time I actually played an undertale/Deltarune game instead of just watching some TH-camr play it. Toby Fox makes some great games. Like really great. So passionate and beautiful. Wonderful games. Jeez it really just gets me excited to make my own stuff. Makes me feel confident to do it. I am actually doing it rn I just wanted this as background music. I got a feeling this’ll just get buried under a pile of other passionate people, but that’s fine. I just wanted to say thanks. Thanks a ton. Can’t believe it’s the nerd bird that got me this far.
* Fear not, my beloved Noelle! * This valiant warrior of brave intelligence * Will be your knight in glow in the dark armor! -Lord Berdly (Soon to be SUPER Lord Berdly)
Okay but we need to acknowledge about Berdly: -Children who receive adequate attention and love from parents do NOT go power-hungry searching for more praise after they win a single spelling bee -He says "I was a forgettable bluebird. No one even remembered my name." Queen thinks his name is Burghley throughout most of the chapter. Queen may or may not serve as a mother figure to pretty much everyone, it's debatable. Either way, worrying. -In SnowGrave, as soon as he realizes we're doing something to Noelle, he immediatly fights us with all he has, and in the SnowGrave fight he stops targeting Noelle when she has low HP. -He's literally the funniest character in the game. -Hearing that it's okay not to be smart was probably therapuetic for a lot of kids who are great but don't get great grades. This is why Berdly is my favorite character ^v^
the reason it took so long was because they had to switch engines twice during development. Chapter 3, 4, and 5 (which will all release at the same time) will probably take around 2 years
@@questionmarkquestionmarkques I agree, according to Sans it’s gonna be two years (which is interesting because he also says that Asriel will likely be home by then, which could imply that there could be a two-day time jump to Chapter 4 or 5?
Honestly with the way he acts, talks and constantly simps for Queen and Noelle, i dont think Berdly being a blue bird is that much of a coincidence lmao
You can hear somber elements of this main theme when you fight him during Snowgrave. On top of everything else, Toby's musical genius cannot be overstated.

[spoilers]
he might still be alive in the dark world since he didn't turn to dust, he's possibly just comatose
but yeah he's most likely fucking dead
Anyone know how to fight the secret boss
[spoilers]
he literally cannot be dead, monsters turn to dust when they die remember?
@@scamuel1896 if they die from natural causes tho when fall into a long sleep before dusting
Berdly was my first death in Chapter 2. I really like how his character changed and I hope he becomes an actual party member in later chapters. I'd like to have the ability to freely swap Susie/Ralsei/Noelle/Berdly for more interesting gameplay
Imagine Berdly flirting
I need the nerdy pickup-lines, Toby!
unfortunately noelle is literally objectively better than ralsei so i don't think it'd work for game balance reasons
@@samario7935 I don't see why not, as long as the party is together genuinely swapping who's in for combat doesn't interfere with the dialog unless its battle specific, at which point Toby could make scenarios that may seperate the party from time to time where it matters. Or hell, he could use that to his advantage and have different routes depending on who does what while in your party. As an example in terms of balance-- I can play through xenoblade with the best team comp for damage and ditch sharla if i want to, but it doesn't mean i have to.
@@samario7935 Maybe like the FNAF World game where you can switch parties. Imagine if we could have Kris, Susie, Ralsei in the first team and Noelle, Berdly and Lancer in the second? This could happen in like a boss battle where we need more people to help if the boss is too strong
the only death I had after reinstalling Deltarune,was in the basement where you ride the cups and theres tons of obstacles,besides that no deaths,I even did Jevil first try...but Berdly...HOW CAN I AVOID THE A+ CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN ME,THERE IS NO TACTIC AT ALL,IT IS RANDOM DUDE
Can we talk about the similarities between Mettaton and Berdly?
-Both are fought in the “normal” route, and in order to spare them, you have to impress them
-Both have special boss fights in the genocide route, with short underdeveloped themes because the battle is meant to end quickly, right before the final boss
-Both are surface-level “cocky annoying self centered” characters who actually have a deep arc related to how someone they loved helped them and they feel like they’re using that person and don’t know how to approach the conflict (Alphys/Noelle)
Coincidence? Probably, but I think it’s interesting to point out.
Chapter 2 was really just I big nod to mettaton neo. The main enemy was a robot with a similar build to mettaton other form, The hidden boss is called neo like mettaton neo, and the whole technology based aspect of chapter 2 is just vary mettaton.
@@kingbidoof7619 also, spamton and mettaton are similar names
The takeaway: Toby is good at developing characters
this chapter was all about mettaton
and noelle who is very nervous likes susie who is brave and tough.
alphys, also very nervous goes after undyne who is ALSO very brave and strong.
see it now?
Ngl, Berdly looks sick during his spear attack.
the bullets shooting outa the spears actually a sin wave
and the weapon he uses is called a halberd
@@ayaandaepic8593 That he calls a Halbird
I love berdly so much, his halberd, his tornado, his design, and his attacks are really cool and badass. HE USE TORNADOS FOR FUCKS SAKE HOW IS THAT NOT COOL. HE ALSO CAN TURN HIS HALBERD INTO A SPEAR AND SHOOT BEAMS TOO I LOVE HIM
homestuck reference
Agreed bro that Spear Gun attack was fuckin lit
*HalBIRD
@@ursarare9507 The weapon is called a Halberd
Yes... and Berdly's a bird
Therefore the Halberd is now a Halbird
You'd never expect something like this to fit Berdly, but it goes well with his not-so-easy battle pattern and dark world design
It's also pure SEGA-like FM, which fits him perfectly.
@@legtendgav556 I think Berdly is kinda based off Sonic As both being Cocky and sometimes annoying and because he is blue
it's funny how Berdly went from just an a-hole, background character in ch1 to being a likable, fleshed out character with an interesting backstory in ch2.
and then theres the snowgrave route where you freeze him in ice and basicly turn him into a ice statue.
Berdly: “Has anyone seen Candice?”
Noelle: “who’s Candice?”
Berdly:
RUN RUN RUN RUN RUNRUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUN RUNRUN RUN RUN
CANDICEEZ NUTS FIT IN YOUR MOUTH?
* Noelle makes a plate of cold chicken nuggets
*insert snowgrave sounds here*
Berdly: ''CANDICE DI-'' what happend? look 1 reply upwards ^
I really like the way the Berdly character was designed.
He was designed to be a total jackass with an interesting backstory.
Plus he was a catalyst to making many Queen scenes extremely funny. He was basically used as a punching bag for Queen.
Edit: I feel like this song perfectly reflects Berdly's personality too. It's kinda annoying but it's a little bit sad too at the same time.
Chapter 2 took so long to develop was because Toby Fox wanted to make sure Berdly was perfect in every way imaginable.
Or maybe the shadowing and script
The main reason it took so long is because toby was establishing everything about every other instalment, which is why later titles are going to come out a lot quicker because the story and the like is already established
sounds like sonic music. it's gotta be the genesis-sounding instruments
you could totally replace the boss theme in 3d blast with this
ikr, gotta love that genesis chiptune or whatever the term is. The Sega Genesis / Mega Drive may have been a successful console and it may not be anything revolutionary but what it did have was fast processing and a distinct sound system.
berdly probably would call himself Berd the Dynamite !
Agreed
The bass is definitely Genesis/FM Synth.
It gived me 3D Blast vibes too! I think it reminds me of Puppet Panic Zone!
I really hope the trend of “classmates get stuck in dark world” continues so we can get temmie (and egg) boss fight
If that ever happens, the eggs from the guy behind the tree better do something
Snake boi!!
Given that both Catty and Jockington get rooms inside the Queen's Mansion, I think it's a real possibility that we see them added in Chapters 3-5.
dont worry toriel is gonna be in chapter 3 from the ending of chapter 2 (im not spoiling anymore)
Really hope to see Monster Kid's dark form
I didn't get any spoilers for this game, I'm glad I got to hear this gem in game.
Same
The only spoiler I ever got before playing the game was the text box of queen saying "lmao" and that didn't even spoil anything at all
I remember I learned that Chapter 2 was out by seeing a meme about Berdly on a certain route...
spoilers would be different than hearing songs from the game?
@@DNKG669 this youtube video has the title vs berdly which spoils that you fight berdly in chapter 2

“New throne, who dis?”

Chapter 2 made me love Berdly way more than I thought I would. To see him actually admit his flaws throughout the Pacifist route, attempt an apology and then apologize again after having misunderstood Noelle's feelings really showed you that he meant well.
Of course though, it's the Snowgrave fight where he drops all pretenses and definitely confirms he cares for Noelle far more than we'd have believed.
!Spoilers for Ch2's Alt Route!

I like that Berdly got some development from 'smug smarty', and I especially love the change between normal and snowgrave route. It's incredibly subtle but he quickly sees the situation as serious and switches from the smug attitude to actually trying to save his childhood friend. Instead of targeting both he targets exclusively Kris until he is down. His attacks become more focused. Even his sprite loses a single black pixel that knocks away the smile off his face. I imagine if he isn't dead his perspective will have taken on a much more serious and protective one, but it's just as likely at the end of the snowgrave route Berdly is "fallen down".
F for the bird nerd.
Yeah its really tragic that some people still hate him, especially after playing through that route myself. Maybe he's a bit of a nerdy prick sometimes sure, but he stood up for his friend regardless, and is probably brain dead now because of that. His actions there aren't of someone trying to use Noelle to keep his status as the smartest, but of someone who actually cares about her well being. It just makes his (unconfirmed but probable) demise more unsettling and undeserved.
@@jadeimmer1925 Ikr i felt really terrible for killing him
I personally think that Berdley is permanently in a coma, since he never got out of the ice from SnowGrave. And if he went away alone with the Dark Fountain, then that probably means his consciousness is gone.
Essentially, he's dead, but not actually dead.
He's essentially saying he's brain dead, which in the real world is also just considered dead. If Deltarune follows Undertale rules, he'll probably turn to dust once all his organs give out.
wait then why does he also do damage to noelle when you fight berdly with her
Berdly, the character who was either everyone's least favorite or completely forgotten in Chapter 1
Now has amazing boss battles, even better battle music, and a role in the game and plot.
Truly an epic man.
Rip Berdly in true genocide. You Twitter, Falco, Revali, joshu.
He wasn't that smart this time
mortecai too
i thought i was the only one who thought he was like Joshu. he's literally Joshu but a bird.
Berdly…the second I saw him working for queen I knew he’d have a redemption part like Susie. I just didn’t expect it to hit so hard, he’s an arrogant egotistical jerk on the outside and a frightened little bluebird on the inside. I felt a real connection with this since I have been told I’m incredibly smart by my peers but because of some learning disabilities, not severe but enough to make things a bit tough at times, I don’t feel like I really am. Expectations are high for me and that’s terrifying…it’s why I resonate with Berdly so much since he’s in a similar situation and I’ve never had that connection with a character before.
Listening to this while rushing to complete a school assignment due in mere minutes really brings on a whole new meaning to "Smart Race".

No one has said it better
I swear...every time I do software, program, python or any kind of technology study test, I will listen to this music while doing that test....IT FITS SO WELL!!!!
You do you
You posted it a day after the game was released, but one time could be every time
@@hasargel I mean, the message does say "I will", meaning they'll do it everytime _after_ they posted this comment/heard the theme
when i first saw him I did not expect such a banger for his battle theme
Listen here, I have a precious lesson for you
If Toby Fox made a song, it's always a banger.
Always
@@f1reflam3 Except when he tried making one of ur mom >:D AHhahahahaha
@@lamegamertime my mom just returned from hospital and almost died and now she is in bad conditions. Do you feel great? Good for you
@@f1reflam3 Who the hell asked? It's called a joke... Grow a brain...
@@lamegamertime yea wait 9 months and ask your sister
Berdly is just so Ironically Cool and unironically cringe that he actually became Unironically Cool, you know what I'm saying? Fire design, amazing theme, an amazing Weapon and an actually hard fight with some attacks actually being pretty creative (like the spear one for example). I'd say Berdly is one of the best characters in chapter 2, if not in the whole game.
i died almost 10 times in the 2nd Berdly fight even though ive played chapter 2 almost 3 times(the first being a near snowgrave route)
Tbh I really liked Berdly in chapter 2. He goes up there with Lancer and Spamton G. Spamton
Love this song tho. He’s prob my favourite character.
hands down one of my fave characters man.
Omega based chad taste
Berdly almost got as much character development as Nubert
what an amazing character arc
It's not even close, Nubert's character development is OP
Yeah, it feels like the whole team made a huge effort for nubert and the relevance of him while berdly feels way smaller and non-complex compared to nubert
I thought he was going to be a Joke Boss.
Berdly being an actually challenging fight, with a kickass theme and cool looking attacks was a pleasant surprise
It was
my sister and I had conversations about chapter 2 in discord and every time berdly is brought up i intentionally call him the wrong name
burgundy was my favorite one
burgerly
bluey
even though he’s the butt of a ton of jokes, i fucking love berdly. his themes are all absolutely amazing oh my god. each chapter has been fucking phenomenal so far, so excited for what chapter 3-5 has in store
you don't care about chapters 6 and 7?
or you just don't care right now cause they'll probably be finished after maybe a decade and a half
@@DNKG669 taking things one step at a time
3-5 are gonna release in one big lump sometime in the next couple of years
so just waiting to see how his character develops
Why the Queen ignores this guy when he's so powerfull that he actually has to HOLD HIS POWER on his battles? His boss fight on Weird Route is so fucking difficult, and is much more a threat than the queen can ever wish to be
Well technically she used him on her boss battle so she kinda acknowledges it without directly saying it
To be fair he's kinda insufferable at first
Any power he may have probably doesn't mean much to Queen when she doesn't even want to be in the same room as him
Noelle is still strong in her own way, but also doesn't drive Queen away
@@OriginalGameteer Queen can’t handle the power of a true gamer like Berdley
he only has 1 different attack in weird route
@@carg826 my point still stands
I wasn't expecting _drum and bass_ for the illegitimate Lombardi child, but here we are. Toby delivers bonafide bangers once again.
Man.. this chapter was so awesome! Chapter 1's ost tbh is a little better but the ost from this chapter is still amazing! This theme is my favorite battle theme. I'm so happy they kept Rude Buster as the main battle theme!
I haven't played the whole chapter yet but i'm getting the same impression!
I feel that this chapter has more songs that I like, but chapter 1 had a few songs that were amazing
I personally like rude buster.
Chapter 1's OST is more consistent while chapter 2 has higher highs. Some parts of the ost also had to grow on me first.
yeah, i think chapter 1s ost is a lot better. chapter 2s is still really good tho thanks to songs like smart race, big shot and cybers world. and tbf chapter 2 has only been out for a couple days so ive had less time to grow to love its ost compared to chapter 1
God, I love this guy. I knew I was gonna like him (I mean, look at that smug face), but Berdly is not only a good character, he's also a funny one. It's a shame we haven't gotten him to join our party and fight alongside us yet. Maybe we'll get even closer to him in a future chapter?
Am I the only one that was hoping to get Beardley as a playable character? Like, in chapter 1 you had Susie and Ralsei, and in chapter 2 instead you get Noelle and bird boy.
I can imagine that, Like in the queen fight where she captures him, instead she manages to capture susie and ralsei in his wires, and when about to capture Kris, he appears and cuts the wire (maybe with Noelle?) and says something cool Like susie when saving Kris from the King. And then the battle starts and his your ally
Now I would wish something like that happened
@@helloblocks.4310 maybe in a next chapter but i don’t know that would happen especially because snowgrave
@@mega6662 I have a feeling he will be in the party later, he still has to learn empathy and get past some of his narcissism before that happens imo though
I was hoping for more of an RPG where you get to change your party members.
@@samurottninjawaterdragon I was really hoping for that too, I wanted to swap out some characters and such so you can create your own team
His battle theme reminds me of Bede's battle theme
This has nothing on Bede’s theme
Toby actually made a track for SwSh
This gives me big RoA vibes. Love it!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that. The tornadoes also definitely reminded a me a little bit of Wrastor so that might've had something to do with it.
That ain't Wrastor
It's probably safe to assume every chapter of Deltarune is going to feature a "problematic" character that antagonizes the party and needs to be swayed over time.
Chapter 1 was Susie.
Chapter 2 was Berdly.
Chapter 3 will probably be Catti.
In chapter 3 toriel and undye will probably be in the dark world, if you seen the ending.
@@hasargel yea. i think kris opened and fountain because susie said something like "what if lancer and ralsei can join our world.' and because toriel called the cops, undyne might go into the fountain and might be featured in the dark world.
Toriel in the dark world would be lit
@@Musical_gamer69 that or he's simply the knight but i have reasons to doubt that
No undyne
i loved berdly's fights, he was always trying to be your rival
to be honest i like it more if he was the additional companion instead, dude got a lot of depth and development.
Secondary party with him and noelle woulda been interesting
Maybe he'll become a party member in later chapters or something, seems like Toby ain't afraid to add new party members later down the line.
Unless something happens to Berdly at the end, haven't finished chapter 2 yet.

@@mystictortoise5404 based on the choices you make you can turn Noelle into a mindbroken killer, and kill Berdly.
something I noticed about berdly is that you never really DEFEAT him with attacking.
In the coaster battle, his coaster explodes.
In the alley battle, he’s exhausted and tired no matter HOW you end the fight.
Keep in mind that you and ralsei (with pretty weak weapons) in chapter 1 can knock susie out MULTIPLE TIMES if you keep just spamming attacks. Berdly takes a good amount of hits from both a full party (with super strong attack-focused weapons) and even more hits vs you and Noelle.
I’m probably reading into this way too much, but if this isn’t a dark world-exclusive power up or something, then Berdly is pretty damn tough
true
Berdly is unironically one of my favorite characters I love him and I don’t understand why so many people dislike him
Berdly Boss music slaps ngl
Berdly is the definition of:
"Hard to love, but harder to hate."
Berdly’s character and theme is nothing short of amazing. Definitely my favorite song in the game so far.
The nerd reveals himself to be a badass as the city roars by, with the Dark Fountain you're trying to close looming above it all. Toby NAILED the atmosphere for this fight.
Berdly: (summons an axe)
Susie: PISSED
Berdly: (turns axe into spear)
Undyne: PISSED
Berdly is actually a really cool character and you can't change my mind, fight me
true
I mean, he's a gamer, which already makes him top tier
such a good battle theme
Queen: Lowering Voice And Stomping Feet on Ground So It Sounds I Am Far Away
Berdly: Yes my queen!
Queen: Kirs you have to help me
Burghly is such a fun character. He's grown on me.
i highly appreciate how you can hear the remainder (reverb)right when it starts over. this man right here is an experienced extender.
Smart race > rude buster change my mind
I won’t try
I mean boss themes tend to be better than standard enemy themes and this is no exception
yeah but rude buster fits random encounters better
BIG SHOT > Smart Race > Rude Buster
Cool Beat >>>>>>>>> BIG SHOT > Smart Race > Rude Buster
The worst part about Berdley is when he is actually kind of badass.
His animation when he fires the bullets out of his weapon like a gun is so cool.
“Susie, please stop bashing my skull with your axe” 🤓
God forbid someone politely asking someone to stop murdering them
I actually hate how much i like Berdly after chapter 2. Toby's magic works again.
Pretty sure this song changed my life. Probably cuz this was the first time I actually played an undertale/Deltarune game instead of just watching some TH-camr play it. Toby Fox makes some great games. Like really great. So passionate and beautiful. Wonderful games. Jeez it really just gets me excited to make my own stuff. Makes me feel confident to do it. I am actually doing it rn I just wanted this as background music.
I got a feeling this’ll just get buried under a pile of other passionate people, but that’s fine. I just wanted to say thanks. Thanks a ton.
Can’t believe it’s the nerd bird that got me this far.
its befitting for a nerd to have a kickass theme given that having that for a guy like Berdly makes him more likely to be nerdy.
**Berdly has challenged you to a pokemon battle!**
that's the vibe I'm getting from this
This does sound like Bede’s theme
@@catalyst539 yeah! Yeah! That’s it!
* Fear not, my beloved Noelle!
* This valiant warrior of brave intelligence
* Will be your knight in glow in the dark armor!
-Lord Berdly (Soon to be SUPER Lord Berdly)
Okay but we need to acknowledge about Berdly:
-Children who receive adequate attention and love from parents do NOT go power-hungry searching for more praise after they win a single spelling bee
-He says "I was a forgettable bluebird. No one even remembered my name." Queen thinks his name is Burghley throughout most of the chapter. Queen may or may not serve as a mother figure to pretty much everyone, it's debatable. Either way, worrying.
-In SnowGrave, as soon as he realizes we're doing something to Noelle, he immediatly fights us with all he has, and in the SnowGrave fight he stops targeting Noelle when she has low HP.
-He's literally the funniest character in the game.
-Hearing that it's okay not to be smart was probably therapuetic for a lot of kids who are great but don't get great grades.
This is why Berdly is my favorite character ^v^
I simply fell in love with Berdly's theme! It's so epic, so intense, just like any gamer would like!
i cant believe out of all of the characters in this game BERDLY gets one of the biggest bops on the soundtrack i-
That first roller coaster battle with him tho
This Chapter is so much better worked than the one, we can see that the 3 years is good (But too short,what a shame)
Toby has a full team of people now
And he is also gonna release chapter 3, 4 and 5 at the same time
the reason it took so long was because they had to switch engines twice during development. Chapter 3, 4, and 5 (which will all release at the same time) will probably take around 2 years
@@questionmarkquestionmarkques I agree, according to Sans it’s gonna be two years (which is interesting because he also says that Asriel will likely be home by then, which could imply that there could be a two-day time jump to Chapter 4 or 5?
people think berdly's weapon is an axe or something, nope, its a halBERD, nice one Toby
I was not expecting a 3v1 to be so challenging.
Honestly with the way he acts, talks and constantly simps for Queen and Noelle, i dont think Berdly being a blue bird is that much of a coincidence lmao
Twitter
getting serious TTYD vibes from this one!
You can hear somber elements of this main theme when you fight him during Snowgrave.
On top of everything else, Toby's musical genius cannot be overstated.
I didn’t expect berdly to have one of the most badass fights in the game!
Thank you for the 15 minute extension, I'd been stuck with a 1 minute one and it was driving my bumper car bonkers
If you think this song slaps, just wait until you hear Jockington's battle theme.
