What do you think? Which of the arguments I presented were interesting and which ones were nonsensical to you? Feel free to comment your thoughts!

I am someone who’s been having a fun time just enjoying the various theories that people make so it was sad to see so many people get upset with the amalgam knight theory.<br><br>One the rules that fans need to follow is that you can’t get emotionally invested in theory. It’s the most certain way to ruin your enjoyment in something.

I heard about this theory through controversy before watching it. Thinking "is it really so bad a theory that people have to go out of their way to trash it?" People are hitting theory almost as hard as the old Sans is Ness theory. But when I saw the theory, it honestly opened my eyes that even with so many flaws, it was by far the most creative theory I seen. I thought it was cool. I didn't believe it but I wanted to defend it. Because theories are fun, speculative, and not entirely factual. All theories deserve a place where people can see them, analyze them, and enjoy the ride. Even if it's 10000% wrong, the game will make it VERY clear in the end. And then we can do entertaining post mortoms on where the theories went wrong. But yeah, for some reason, the community is quite hostile to this theory.

I genuinely fear that if Dess isn't revealed to be the Roaring Knight, DessKnighters are going to attack Toby over it. A lot of DessKnight believers act rabid when other theories question it.

as someone who started believing in this theory thanks to jrvanity's video (especially to the point I actually made a comment on it the moment I started believing, I have yet to look back at that comment in fear of what's transpired since), I absolutely agree with a lot of this, and it already has been shown before toby can and will show certain plot details through an alternate route, so it's not completely farfetched<br><br>although my belief has been shaken a bit in the time since, especially when the theory became controversial, I still have some belief that this has to be the case somehow<br><br>the weird route itself feels extremely important for something completely optional, and given that from the sweepstakes page, 7B is literally twice as big as 2's, something big is going to happen

the Gerson connection was the biggest wrinkle for me, but I think your explanation does well to iron it out. I hadn’t considered that Kris/Noelle could still be close to Gerson without having him as a school teacher. He seems like the kind of guy who would absolutely take it upon himself to be a mentor to the youth both in and outside of school hours.

Quite interesting. I like that you give arguments both for & against it. Very thought-provoking. It makes me wanna keep an eye out for stuff related to this theory in the future.<br>Thanks for uploading!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bP9uYL2lWEU&t=1620">27:00</a> gerson didn't attend church! He explicitly writes to Alvin about why he didn't go to church, that he disagreed with why Alvin chose to become a priest and that he wanted Alvin to write more lord of the hammer with the knowledge he had of the Prophecy. And even now, we can see why he felt that way - Alvin is so miserable he refuses to use his own voice to write his own sermons, and instead quotes his dad's books.

A very (interesting?) entertaining essay! I only like 3 options: Kriselle Knight, Papyrus Knight, or whatever Toby came up with. It won't be disappointing!

I’m predicting that when chapter 6 comes out one of two things will happen: They’ll take away Noelle’s ability to equip the black shard to shut down that part of the theory OR they’ll leave it in, but similar to Ralsei being unwilling to equip Flowery’s Scarf, she’ll refuse to equip it until chapter 7 or super late into ch6.

My biggest issue with Kriselle Knight personally is that it requires The Knight to time travel in a way that was never established in Undertale or Deltarune, so this would have to be a new 3rd kind of time travel. The main version of Kriselle Knight says that they will load Kris' old save file so that they can go back in time, but if they did do that then they would either turn back into Kris, or replace Kris entirely. Loading save files never results in multiple Kris or Frisks running around. Also if we save our game at any point during the Weird Route, The Knight wouldn't have a save file to load that would send them back far enough.<br><br>I'd also like to add, that for the Asriel Knight "His horns wouldn't fit inside the helmet" argument that none of the Holiday family could fit their horns inside the helmet either. The Knight's horns bend at a 90 degree angle and even if the person under it has horns of that exact shape it just wouldn't be possible to fit them inside.
