Is Asriel The Best? wrote: I really hate the theory, but there's way too much evidence to deny it. With the new update with the photo and everything, I think this really is what Toby wanted everyone to figure out. And it sucks. I hate it. It's just the worst. Why couldn't he just let Sans be cool and mysterious? I had already accepted that there's just no explaination for Sans, and now the whole frickin' script got flipped. Ugh, I'm awful peeved if you can't tell.

It's been a month, and I'm sure someone has thought of this before, but have you ever thought the photo changed exactly to debunk the theory? I mean, it was vague before, but now he explicitly says there are three people (and not four like the earthbound photos shown).

Not to mention that it now also means the photo doesn't necessary need to be from another world. I've always liked to think it was actually a extremely good drawing of the friends Sans has made in other time lines, which he just couldn't bear to try and befriend again and again, but still wanted desperately not to forget. I feel my theory is validated by the fact the text was changed to "bad drawing". It might have been an attempt to say that Sans remembers Everything. Possibly even the bullshit Flowey did before Frisk/Chara.

I'm not against any Gaster theories either. But the Earthbound theory sounds a lot more farfetched - not only because of all the points Brainifyer has made before me, but because:

'Why would Toby Fox work hard on letting fans figure out the game he poured his blood and sweat on for years was just a fangame''? '''That doesn't make any sense.
