As heartwarming as Toby Fox's games can often be, they can be pretty terrifying when they want. In honor of the Halloween season, let's discuss a little bit of the design behind these vignettes of horror.

the worst thing about berdly's death is that the moment he realized something is wrong and noelle is genuinely afraid he dropped the whole smart gag and jumped to questioning kris and trying to protect noelle. he's up his own ass but he's not a bad person, he jumped to protect his best friend when he realized something is incredibly off

Also during that fight is that if Kris gets downed berdly will tell Noelle that they can stop listening to kris they are down. And Noelle will say or well think "kris is down but...I can still hear there voice." Not exactly that but basically, it's telling you that you're the one doing this to Noelle not kris. That YOU are the monster.

It is a shame that when that fight is over, he has Fallen. If you do not know or remember, the Fallen State is essentially when a Monster is on their Death Bed. Their Soul still has enough magic to keep their body stable but they are functionally dead. The only characters to survive it in Undertale are the Amalgamates and we all know how big an exception they were.

I can’t do the evil routes at all. I even feel bad making Kris hug Ralsei because I didn’t pick up on the clues that Kris doesn’t like hugging people, and doesn’t particularly like Ralsei either. It’s so hard because Ralsei is scientifically designed to be the cutest, fluffiest boy.

If it makes you feel better, Asgore's dialogue does specifically mentioning Kris not like 'this type' of hugs (paraphrased), meaning that Kris might not be negative towards hugs generally! Especially since there's dialogue implying Kris asks for a hug from Susie, whom they absolutely do like a lot. Furthermore, even taking the tea information into account, Kris doesn't necessarily _dislike_ Ralsei either, but seeing how Asriel leaving affected them, they could be a little defensive regarding getting attached to someone who's like their brother in many ways. That's how I interpret some of it, at least! I'm glad there's no text (like Ralsei's interal monologue/thinking) that implies Kris looked particularly uncomfortable, at least. I totally feel you though!

Somethings I found pretty terrifying are… *In the snowgrave route there is no true hero.* In the snowgrave route, there is no undyne or sans who wants to stop you for selfless reasons. The only people who ever try to put a stop to your actions are berdly and spamton. Berdly and spamton have both done things to lead up to this situation. Hell, Spamton intentionally gave you a weapon, knowing you would do evil with it for selfish reasons. He stops you for selfish reasons. *Sans didn’t stop you until all chance of redemption is lost.* Just a small detail, which could have many implications. *Kris genuinely doesn’t seem to want to follow through with snowgrave.* In the snowgrave route, after killing berdly and meeting up with Ralsei and Susie they comment that Kris looks shaken. Although it’s a small detail..I’d say it’s just a little evidence that Kris is not at fault for Snowgrave.

one thing that I see a lot in a lot of let's-players is how demoralized they get after trying to beat Undyne the Undying. once they beat her, they celebrate, the first times they celebrate at a main character's death. they don't stop or contemplate, take a breather, stay there in shock. they celebrate. maybe a brief moment of sadness follows, but I believe that the reason why Toby made the battle so hard was to "desensitize" the player to the character's deaths. you go through the remaining monsters, nothing changes. getting to the Sans battle, you notice how uphill the battle will be. death after death, your resolve strengthens. all Sans needs to do now is to get you to give up. but they don't out of pure determination. their resolve strengthens after each death, their goal seeming closer to getting achieved after each attempt. they don't realize it then, but they aren't just rooting for the ending of the battle, like a normal RPG. they are pushing to destroy the world that was onces so full of lovable, quotable, and wacky characters that you murdered for selfish curiosity. only after you beat Sans, the final hope for all monsters in the Underground do you realize that your harrowing victory meant nothing. just an empty and short-lived celebration of beating a videogame character. you once again feel that ever familiar feeling of guilt and sadness for the death of such a memorable character. and yet, you continue anyways.

Berdly attempted to be that hero, but to no avail. As soon as he realized something was wrong with Noelle, he immediately drops his stuck up smart kid act, and starts questioning Kris about what they've done to her, and fights Kris to protect Noelle, his best friend. And despite having good intentions, and trying to be a true hero in that moment... it was all for naught. He dies the way all the others did, if more intensely. Being a hero doesn't immediately mean you're gonna be triumphant, but that shouldn't deter you from trying. And even the most stuck up person still has a moral compass somewhere deep down. Berdly may act all up his own ass, but he still truly cares for his friends and would fight to make sure they're safe and ok.

can we PLEASE talk about how the player is very obviously controlling Kris, and how much more disgusting and horrifying it makes the Snowgrave route??? Because you're not just roping in a third party, you are FORCING Kris to ABUSE their childhood friend, and they can't escape from the players' control to stop you. Imagine the horror of that situation, an invisible hand choking your soul and forcing you to do unimaginably cruel things to someone you care about.

@@yalovoyhznepomny that the player is a separate entity? Literally everywhere.

@@yalovoyhznepomny in deltarune there absolutely is a player in the lore of the game. The only ending of chapter one shows Kris ripping out their “soul” and controlling themselves. We’re left in the cage controlling the soul. That was almost damning evidence, but in chapter two, there’s multiple moments where the narrator says “Kris does x” or “Kris looks y” showing that Kris is the one in question, but in the snowgrave route mostly (from what I’ve seen personally) it says “You do x” or “You say y” (Direct example being the fight between you and Spamton Neo. When calling out for help, it says “Kris calls for Ralsei” and “Kris calls out for Susie” but when calling for Noelle, it says “YOU whisper noelles name”, the capitals being in game, not my own annunciation. Not only does this summon noelle almost instantly, but tell me how Ralsei and Susie weren’t able to hear Kris calling for them, but the moment Noelles name is said in a whisper she hears and comes to our aid. It was us saying Noelles name, beckoning her back to the party) Kris is also said to be acting more quiet than usual, more stoic, no expression to their face. Once again, after “killing” Berdley, Susie and Ralsei say Kris looks shaken up. If Kris was in control and wanting all this to happen, why would they be shaken up.

@yalovoyhznepomny Please. Shut up, you don't know what your talking about. 1. No, I never said that, you brought up a theory with little evidence and put words into my mouth. That is a theory, without much evidence behind it. 2. Why do you specify "YOUR". It really just seems like your trying to put yourself on a pedestal or make it seem like my theories aren't valid. 3. You severely underestimate the amount of evidence there is behind the separation of Kris and the Player. Yes the birdcage is one of them and one of the most telling. There's also the specific separation between Kris and You in actions in the snowgrave route, on how You, the player, is controlling Kris to the do this. Additionally there's the Ralsei thinking scenes in which the Player is shown a different area while Ralsei talks to Kris. There's also the sans dialogue in the overworld where clearly We are the ones talking to sans, saying it's "nice to see you again" despite the fact Kris and sans have never met before this. There's so much more evidence everywhere that I could bring up but I'm gonna stop here because clearly if you don't listen, you're just too dumb to admit you're wrong.

One of my favorite differences in the genocide route is something so small and insignificant but it really stuck with me, and that is the instant noodles item. Because in any normal route, it’s a silly little “oh haha it takes forever to use and then doesn’t even heal much” sort of gag item that really just adds to the silly absurdity of Undertale. Then, in the geno route, having it be a great healing item with the simple use line of “It’s better dry” is so raw and just evokes so much the first time you see it. It’s such a small detail but it really adds to how much the tone changes and how all the charm and silliness of the game is completely thrown out the window

I'm 100% sure susie and ralsei are free enough to make their own choices despite being the so called hero's from the prophecy. There were implications where susie outright ignores whatever the player tells them only to do whatever she wants (eg: the ferris wheel scene and in her entire story in chapter 1). While ralsei only assists you while also acting out as your guide in the role of a darkner. Only to follow whatever the lightners intentions are. If anything kris is the one who's choice's don't matter in this case. Which could explain why YOU Don't get to change the ending. Only the routes.

For me, Spamton is actually the most unsettling character presentation Toby Fox has written so far. What at first glance appears to be a broken toy climbing out of a dumpster muttering to himself is actually a person, and he gets very aggressively interested very quickly in Kris, who is actually visibly afraid of the man. He's difficult to understand at first, and projects himself onto Kris, cackling before punching the dumpster in sudden rage. Then he goes right back to his sales pitch like nothing happened. *Then* he demonstrates that he knows more about Kris than anyone should. And he wants something from them. And won't take no for an answer. There's a constant oscillation in Toby Fox's writing between seriousness and comedy, but Spamton turns the frequency up to uncomfortably uncertain levels. His shop details this further, with the janky, downsampled circus music, and one-time-only monologues that are, again, frighteningly direct and yet so difficult to disentangle from the garbled mess of his thoughts. *Something* shuts him down from talking about the knight, *someone* tries to contact You through him, and worst of all, we get the briefest flash of coherence where he remembers for a moment all he's lost. Much later, the Spamton NEO fight has him desperately pleading and screaming for Kris to take some kind of deal that nobody but Spamton and Kris understand. "Do you want to be a heart on a chain your whole life?". Kris's whole situation is another kind of horror, and the only person so far who seems to understand it is a man shattered beyond comprehensible speech by the knowledge. And you give him the freedom he thinks he wants, only for he and Kris to realize the only freedom for them is total abandonment. It's easy to lose sight of all this because of how thoroughly the community has embraced Spamton and memed him to death.

There’s also the implications that Spamton might not be as insane as he makes himself out to be. Compare Spamton’s role in the normal route to the weird route. In the normal route, spamton can barely speak in coherent sentences without spouting nonsense. The prices of the items in his shop also wildly change to match his “insanity.” In the weird route, however, his sentences while still a bit odd are MUCH more toned down in comparison to the normal route. When Spamton sells you the thorn ring in his dumpster, the price never changes, it’s always one specific price…. *1997.* While nothing’s been confirmed and this very well could just be me speculating too deep, it is an interesting detail I picked up on.

I'd like to also add on, just a little thing, that if you kill all of the dogs in Snowdin, and any other combination of encounters to make your kill count at least 21, when interacting with the dog food at Alphys's lab you get the text "It's a half-empty bag of dog food. You just remembered something *funny* ." This text relies on the dogs' deaths in particular, as any other kills will just result in "It's a half-empty bag of dog food.", or 0 kills being "It's a bag of dog food. It's half full." To describe such a thing as funny really portrays how twisted you've become at this point.

@@tarniabook3076 I think that’s just Chara being there, not Chara “taking over.” After all, the Narrator just talks about a “You” which is either Frisk or the Player as seen with how Deltarune deals with “you”s. The narrator never NEEDS to talk about you, they just do. So when Chara begins talking, that’s what they’re doing: talking. When they say “you remembered something funny” it’s implying, chillingly, that Frisk is laughing. Consider the moments when Frisk would move on their own in the Genocide Route. Perhaps, just like Chara, Frisk is also becoming a sadist.

The music you usually hear being slow down, the empty towns, the smiley appearing instead of an exclamation mark, the fun character everyone loves who tells you ominous things and in the end has a secret really hard boss fight where he remembers that you've reloaded your save after you die,,, then the final confrontation with a character that looks exactly like the character you play but with a few differences that make them look creepier, who has a screamer if you dont do what they want, and completely erase your file. Oh and also if you try to replay the game after that, even though it looks like everything is nomal, at the very end you see it isn't.

I think another potentially TERRIFYING concept is the relationship between Kris and the player. It feels almost as if you weren't able to make your own body, so you just hijacked Kris'. The thing is, Kris already had a life before then. A life that YOU have the potential to ruin. Numerous in-game occasions, like after the pacifist Spamton NEO fight, show that Kris is a separate entity from you- a person with their own thoughts, relationships and opinions that you don't know about and just randomly trample over. So far, the ramifications of the player's actions on Kris aren't too huge- it's just things like how they look hurt when you interact with the piano in the hospital (Kris can play the piano very well, but the player can't and just makes random noise). But with something like Snowgrave? A route where YOU, the player, go against Kris' own wishes and completely, perhaps permanently, twist their relationship with a childhood friend into a manipulative mess. Kris doesn't want any of this- YOU do. And they're so desperate to get rid of you that they go through what looks like a good deal of pain just to be rid of the SOUL controlling them for just a few moments. Edit: like 40 other people basically commented the exact same thing as me but way better what the heck are you doing liking this why does it have 1k likes my notifications nooooooooo Edit 2: replies misgendering Kris a little, just a heads up (not pointing at anyone in particular but if that's an issue for you maybe don't check those out)

Yeah, I feel like one of the main plot points in future chapters is going to be Kris trying to find a way to rid themselves of the player for good without dying (since clearly they can't live without a soul for long). Ideally without the player knowing, letting the most observant of us notice this sort of behaviour only through little hints Toby likes to sprinkle in interactions and flavor text. I think it's very realistic that this could happen in the future, and I'm absolutely looking forward to it.

​@@TheTrueJevil There is an interesting Chara parallel here too. You whispered Noelle's name. And she came. And killed for you. What does Chara call themself? "The demon that comes when you call it's name." While Chara isn't directly manipulated by you, they just learn from you & start helping you they are very similar to Noelle. Assuming this is for a greater purpose than just killing without consequence. To become stronger. Chara is implied in the flashbacks to have been a somewhat shy sort, hiding behind flowers. The monster you meet at the end is far more confident. The same is true of Noelle. They assume this was all about becoming strong enough to get rid of your enemies, something Chara was denied when Asriel refused to kill the Humans & let their plan to save the Monsters fail. Noelle assumes the exact same thing. I wonder... If maybe, as the game progresses & we do more Snowgrave routes with Noelle, if one day, Noelle will ask us if we want to destroy the only thing left to destroy, and then, we say no & she realizes. Realizes this wasn't for a reason, this wasn't to help her become stronger, that you just killed, in Noelle's case forced her to kill, because you wanted to & thought you could get away with it. And like Chara, maybe she'll punish us like we deserve. "It was *you* who brought everything to it's end. But you cannot accept it." "You think you're above concequences."

At the end of the fight you tell Kris to call for Ralsei and Susie, which doesn't work. However, when YOU *whisper* Noelle's name she immediately proceeds to (kill??) Spamton. The fact that she appears when you whisper her name has many other implications as well.

UT had it affecting every single game afterwards unless you did some specific things, and just how the Snowgrave route changes the ending ever so subtly (mostly stuff in Hometown). I think Snowgrave works a little better for that feel because UT's "No Monsters" route was easy to accidentally do if you skipped past everything urging you to spare monsters, Snowgrave was datamined, and involves 100% concious, directed, player driven choice to do.

I genuinely think that Chara is the flavour text. It feels fitting, like how I swear there's a point during the pacifist route where it goes "..." In relation to something about Asriel. And it makes sense, everyone who knew Chara thinks that Frisk is similar to them, to the point of Asriel convincing himself that you are Chara. Which is why my secondary theory is that You corrupt Chara. They are a child, they wanted to help in life and they're very impressionable. So when they begin to give a sick smile because of everything you've done, how you've taught them to act- well, I find it compelling, to say the least.

And the narration in No Mercy takes an even more overt knowledge over things from Chara's perspective, like things about Asgore's room/belongings, or what he keeps locked/etc. Which of course, isn't to say anything about their actual demeanor, rather that it's rather reliable to assume _from_ that evidence that the narrator _is_ Chara in all instances, and their attitude/morality is, yes, informed by _our_ decisions, and not some innate trait of Chara's on their own.

One thing i noticed about how the final-esque fights in undertale is how the final bosses fight you. maybe cause ive been playing games for a while but their style of fighting also factors into the overall theme of the fight. In the routes the bosses kinda fight like game players themselves would fight against an opponent. -Neutral route: Omega Flowey: He fights by overwhelming you with rapid attacks but more importantly relying on save states to manipulate the fight. just like a person using a emulator or TAS (tool assisted speedrun). you see right at the beginning that flowey saves one save states then uses a 2nd one to try and throw you off with how you react to their attacks (they reload save states between or even during attacks forcing you to react to the sudden reset). They are save scumming to get their desired ending. -True Pacifist route: Asriel Dremeer: Honestly this fight is pure spectacle. he uses alot of fun interesting attacks but overall its your love of the game that you have shown allowing you and him to have alot of fun with his attacks and connect emotionally. you cannot truly die so its more about connecting rather than fighting. As he has the power of 7 souls he could have just crashed the game like omega flowey but he was focused on playing with you and wanted it to continue as long as you did. -Genocide route: Sans: Honestly his fight is interesting for multiple reasons but what stuck out to me is how he doesnt fight you normally or even conventionally. He fights like a person doing a low level run would do against a overwhelmingly powerful enemy. His stats are the lowest in the game (1hp, 1 atk, 1def) but when doing a low level run you use any and all tactics to beat your opponents (cheap shots, system and glitch abuses, turtling, etc). he uses any and all of those tactics against you (attacking first with a complicated new attack, attacks not doing straight damage but poison that tics down at a constant rate, attacks ignoring invincibility frames, attacking during unconventional times, dodging all attacks, interfering with choosing actions, betraying you after you let your guard down, etc). that is what i feel scares alot of people (and excites them). When the game uses tricks like these against you like you are fighting someone who is the same type of player as you are. it feels cheap at times but there is a part of alot of players that would do the same back at them. See people doing no-hit runs of all the bosses, abusing glitches to speedrun, etc. it shows a understanding of a players psychology that hits close to home for alot of people. Deltarune is definitely aiming to show something similar but more on how you controlling a person instead of a blank avatar (or self insert) can come across like.

@@sindrevangenrobberstad2889 Yes Sans knows what will happen once you reach asgore. See its another thing i noted about undertale. Normally (or just as originally concieved) you would only do a genocide run after you had run through all the other neutral endings. Basically once you clear the game completely you would go on the route that requires killing everyone (*just to see what would happen*). Once you finish that then what? there is nothing left in the game itself to do or discover. you would then stop playing after finishing the run. as you would then feel that there is no need for undertale to be installed and erase the game. that would destroy their world and therefore Sans doesnt want the world to end. you can be as evil as you wish and sans would only get angry at you. However if you become a world-ending threat........thats when he cant afford not to care anymore. Now that the genocide route is common knowledge with challenges and content that the main game does not have its become a route that people play in the game much earlier. specifically for the challenge of facing the bosses in the geno run is the most common reason i heard of (though there are numerous reasons why people decide to do it). Sans fight is designed to throw the player off and hopefully get you to at least stop. That rarely works however as it is appealing to see a fight that runs counter to expectations in such a way.

I love how the main antagonist, Flowey, doesn't act like a genocidal maniac after you clear the true ending. He says "Dude, you may see them as variables, but you'll be dragging them away from paradise." and adds that the power he had, was what you were fighting to end. The roles were reversed here, You are now in Flowey's position, you have the power he once had and now the choice is laid bare. Reset everything and do what Flowey did or never touch Undertale again since everyone, and frisk, has their happy ending. It's really meta and wholesome.

Something I really like about this video is how it also kind of addresses something that i've noticed with Deltarune a while back. I remember back around the time the first chapter was released, Toby Fox said something about him not thinking he could make people feel the same thing that Undertale made them feel, and so he wanted to make people feel something "different". With that being said, I feel Toby has absolutely succeeded in this, and the way he handle the horror aspect of Deltarune is a great example of it. It is no doubt different, but it's still in his style. It's familiar, but still new, (and, to be honest, in several ways just better). This is exactly what I feel Deltarune is like in comparison to Undertale overall: Familiar, but still different in the absolute best way.

Something I find interesting is the fact that even Kris themself is a character outside of you. The only time you do not control them is when they take the heart out and are finally able to be themself. So in the Snowgrave route, not only are you manipulating someone to kill for you since you can't, but you're controlling someone into manipulating someone else to kill for you since THEY cannot kill. Also I don't know if Kris is evil, we'll have to figure out in future chapters. They're either the Roaring Knight and created the Dark Worlds this whole time or after learning about being able to create fountains, made the one at the end of Ch. 2. I'm excited to see where it goes. I expect Kris will end up being the main antagonist (maybe not villain) personally, some sort of vendetta against you controlling them.

I think the omega flowey fight was terrifying for another reason. It made you feel like the enemy. Like you can’t win, because he has the power to save over, like near the end. Or when you die, you realize that you can’t do anything. But what scares me the most, is that we had the souls to save us. I imagine the omega flowey fight is what every other monster sees when they fight you. Except they don’t have any souls to save them. They are trapped in an endless loop of looking like they’ve won, only for you to come back. That’s what scares me.

The design for Omega Flowey is very disturbing to look at on it's own. The elements like the explosions and many other things are too realistic it doesn't "fit" the aesthetic of the game or any other thing on it. That's why it's extremely surprising and disturbing visually. But mentally it also plays with you, with the things Flowey says about save files and everything, you're going against something, a character that it's self-aware. More elements to that, comes the way the fight never saves (unless you reach to the point it does) and the game crashes everytime you loose. Then Flowey calls you out on losing.

I think on your closing note about Toby's ability to combine the horrific and the joyous to make each highlight the other well... I have two things I'd like to discuss that encapsulate that point perfectly, with very different results. The lab. When you go in, there's real concern that someone who you may or may not personally like but you *know* other characters like and regardless don't wish harm upon is going to put themselves in harms way. Slowly you go through the carnival of horrors, seeing things deeply unsettling compared to the entire game thus far, but... there's touches of softness. The monster is about to kill you while you sleep in bed! Wait, it just pulled the covers over you so you'd be comfy. All of this hitting crescendo, your concern about Alphys having reached a fever pitch... only for her to turn on the lights and reveal she's fine, and that the abominations you've seen are just innocent monsters who are hungry and rightfully cranky given their situation. On the flip side: Spamton Neo in the pacifist run. He's regularly unsettling, targeting you when you're alone and insisting you be alone, making you go through the deeply unsettling experience that is the basement, scaring the shit out of you when he drops from the ceiling (even when you see him coming). On the flip side, he's also hilarious, and you can feel a certain sympathy for what's just beneath the surface. You fight him with your friends, cutting his strings, trying to free him. He realizes in these last moments how wrong he was, determined to redeem himself and live not for power, but himself and his friends. You cut the last wire.... and he falls, lifeless, to the floor. And the screen lingers on his body. Afterwards we see he wasn't actually dead, and he becomes an item to join you on your journey, but it's still completely off... and then the "cooldown talk" happens, and one of your trusted friends, one of the cutest beings in the game, tells you it was meaningless and not to think about it, despite the game clearly wanting you to think about it. In a lot of ways I consider the pacifist spamton neo fight to be the dark version of the lab. It follows the same isolation, the same build up of horror with softer elements... with a *completely* different pay off.

I’ve come by a pretty horrifying theory a while ago. In Deltarune in the hospital waiting room there’s a bead sliding toy. If you inspect it on a neutral or pacifist playthrough, Kris will comment that the beads are “grimly marching along on their set path” In the Snowgrave route however, Kris will take notice that the BLUE bead has broken off. Undertale was all about defying convention and subverting expectations. In one of the many versions of the neutral route, if you’ve been playing the game like you would any other RPG (killing everything you come across, but not actively seeking out encounters and using the save system to change your choices) Sans will comment that you’ve been acting like you already knew what was going to happen. The meta commentary here being that you’ve been playing Undertale like you would any other game, so you’re acting like you would when playing any other game. So if Undertale was commenting on how you play games like it, could it be possible that the bead sliding toy is commentary on how you’re playing Deltarune as if it was Undertale? That you’re simply doing what you’ve come to expect of a game like Deltarune? If in Undertale the way to get the best ending was by breaking away from the standards that games before it had set, would the reverse be true in Deltarune? That’s a pretty grim idea. I know one thing for sure. Toby LOVES subverting expectations.

If you visit the Annoying Dog's room, you'll find that they sleep on the metaphorical fabric of reality full of holes that needs to be "patched", next to a puzzle that's always "finally coming together." I also don't think that Toby would make a game with the moral of "it's a good thing to kill everyone." I mean Toby IS all about breaking expectations, but there's a right and wrong way to do that.

Sans legitimately beat me in the Geno route. I was on the last set of moves in the game, and I decided to stop and finish the next day... But I didn't. I came back to find the my save file had somehow been reset. Through some glitch, through some infuriating bug, my murderous conquest was ended. I attempted going into the code to reach the room I had been in, increasing my level, doing everything I could to get to that point, and yet I could not reload the progress I had made. Up until this video, I saw it as a flop on my part, but maybe, just maybe, failing was a better conclusion than the one I've spectated over and over again. This franchise is truly one of a kind.

The thing with Chara I always found the most twisted, They play the part of the naration through the game. even the "it's you!" in the mirror and such. While they aren't the most stable of individuls themselves, when Asriel and them go outside, they have a goal, the same goal that Toriel divorces Asgore for not doing, Go out of the barrier and getting 6 more souls to break the barrier. Chara isn't just some mindless monster, but when you get a hold of them, Frisk is basically possesed wuth their spirit. and through your action, you either push Chara just like you do Noelle and make their anger at the world that treated them poorly then caused the death and suffering of their found family over the top where everything should be destroyed. Or. you can go through the game peacefully, establish the connections that they lost or never had as what seems to be a very neglected child til the Dreemurs. Getting them from a state of being unable to rest, to knowing that in some long, roundabout way, they did what they wanted from the start, to help their found family be happy and free.

Yeah, exactly. That's what I find so frustrating about most people's takes on Chara and their characterization. They're not a _perfect person_ but they're not a _demon_ either. It's our choices that ultimately define how far in what direction Chara will lean, because they are our mirror. At the end of the day though, they are still just a child who was likely suffering to have even considered climbing Mt. Ebott (a place that is said to be one that no one returns from) in the first place. Also, buttercup poisoning is an *insanely* painful way to die, so they must have both had very strong feelings about freeing monsters (a noble goal), and unfortunately, about wanting to die, to have even stuck with that for as long as they did. It's very concerning to me that people would see a writer like Toby Fox, who is known for giving all of his characters nuance and depth, and assume that he would make a suicidal child _pure evil_ for basically no reason.

Even if you truly destroy all monsters, you’ll be trapped too. You’re the only monster worth containing now.

One chilling thing from an aborted neutral run that made me stare at my screen when I was playing Undertale for the first time: I had killed toriel bc I hadn't figured out how to spare her until later, and I'd assumed Undertale was kinda like any other game where you're *supposed* to kill the bosses. After I figured out how to actually spare her, I reset my save file and went back. This time, I spared her. As I was climbing the stairs to leave the Ruins, Flowey appeared. He told me basically that he *knew* I killed Toriel, and that I felt bad about it, which is why I reset it. My 16 year old brain was fucking terrified of that little flower for a *week* after that experience. Nothing like being presented with *exactly* your own thoughts to make you afraid of something you thought couldn't see *you*. After all, it's both still you, and it's me.

Chara being both a metaphor for the player and a character in their own right is one Undertale's few stumbling points for me. It doesn't help that the more likeable version of Chara, Narrator Chara, isn't very obvious to the average player. I think blaming Chara for everything is wrong, but I understand why so many people made that mistake. Toby kinda muddled the metaphor too much. The Weird Route in CH2 doesn't have that problem, so I guess he learned! I've seen *some* people still assigning some blame to Kris, but (1) a lot of those people are starting from an interpretation of Kris' other actions through both chapters, and (2) they're usually a knee-jerk reaction from people who just saw the Weird Route for the first time and haven't had time to think about what just happened. One thing that I admire about both murder runs is that Toby isn't afraid to still be funny during those routes? The "GEEETTT DUNKED ON!!!!!" scene is iconic, but one of my favorite lines from Toby is "Kid! I'm busy becoming [GOD]! Go play [MINECRAP] or something!" I know people complain about genres getting muddled (specifically complaining about comedy being in every work nowadays) but the humor on the Murder Routes kind of serves a purpose? It's like the game is punishing you for your edgelord antics by continuing to be at least a little goofy. BTW, this was a good video! I'm surprised it took KZfaq a week to recommend it to me!

You?? Toby really should have picked one, or made a seperate character.

Chara I feel was also overly analysed, even in this video. Some things are really just as simple as they seem, and drawing ties to other things makes a long and confusing thread that just barely makes enough sense. To me, Chara is the player. If Toby is really trying to simulate how a player would normally play the game, then Chara's narrative lines up nearly perfectly. Starting out friendly with the Dreemurrrs, then after the loss of Asriel, a close friend, becoming more and more desensitised until it doesnt matter at some point. To me that's why you never see Chara at the end of pacifist. You did not lose a friend, and therefore you arent in the same position as them. Essentially, if Flowey is the more literal sense of the player reloading saves, then Chara is the player's emotions. Starting out soft, then slowly boiling down

She's just a video game character but I had grown so Immensely attached to her that my accidental killing of her crushes me, I believe the encounter with sans in the Hotel Restaurant was enough to make me wanna close the game and not play it again. I don't even have the heart to do a hard reset. I begrudgingly continued my way through the neutral route, I'll never sleep peacefully knowing I murdered Mom The game is fantastic, it can pull so many strong emotions from a person via atmosphere alone.

Something else that makes the Omega Flowey fight horrifying is the fact that you are no longer in control. Right now, Flowey has the most determination, meaning he's the one who actually controls the timeline. You're only able to return from death because Flowey lets you. Even when you DO beat Flowey he just turns back time. You're no longer the player, you're the monster.

In Undyne's final theme (Battle Against a True Hero), the slow part of the song is the reflective part. It's not a slow point just for the sake of being slow. It's the final cry of a dying world, pleading with everything it has left for you to stop this insanity. The game knew what you were doing long ago, probably before you even left the Ruins. You were given so many chances to stop killing, but you trampled over all of them like you did to all those innocent monsters. From there, the game threw out so many cues, that in a _whole world_ full of monsters, you were the only *real monster.* Another example of this is in the title itself, Battle Against a True Hero, as in: _you are not the hero, and haven't been for a very long time._

I remember having nightmares from Chara’s face at the end of genocide in Undertale. Nightmares aside, could you imagine if the Pacifist route in a way… tainted the genocide run? Imagine trying to start the run in the ruins, however, the attacks you do on the enemies, they don’t do much, eventually they flee before you can get a few more hits in. Eventually, when getting to Toriel, she mentions how the monsters noted that you tried to attack them but no matter what, you couldn’t do that much damage. She and the other monsters find it strange that humans who’d normally be able to off monsters easily are so…. weak, they can’t even kill them. You can’t get past Toriel unless you offer mercy with her dialogue changed to having her think that you might have realized that maybe trying to kill every being with a pulse isn’t always a good idea. Thoughts on such an idea?

For new players, I personally think that this would instill the idea that you can't actually attack the monsters which would probably make them shut off the game because they won't really find it fun. It's a good idea despite this, I think that it'll work better with a select few enemies instead of all of them.

An interesting idea, but I don't think that would likely work in practice, in terms of the story. If you intentionally compromise what is ideal so badly enough, that invites tyranny. That's in the form of Chara, who at the end of this 'No Mercy' run (because some people like to be sheltered from even the mention of such horrors), not only kills you the player, but also commits a hostile takeover of your save, and never leaves it no matter how hard you try to reconcile in that save. The only way to get rid of her would be to erase the save file completely (which is a prospect that such a tyranny when made, cannot be peacefully resolved.) I'm not sure how becoming saintly, so to speak, beckons a malevolent creature fully intent on murder for murder's sake to be peaceful. This isn't to shoot your idea down though - it's an invitation; perhaps if you can ponder this enough, you can find a way to end tyrannies peacefully (that would be very great). Martin Luther King Jr. did something similar when fighting for black votes in the 50's and 60's, perhaps you could try and study him for starters.

It's a funny thought to flip the narrative on its head, but I don't think it morally makes much sense, right? Because it's just like real life - you can do a lot of good in the world, but if you turn evil and start trying to hurt people, all the good you did doesn't really change much, you're still an awful person. Just in general, good things don't taint.

I don't think that would really work because part of the point of the No Mercy run is that if you are really going through with this, you don't really care. Sure "Frisk" or "Chara" might not want to do this, but they have no say in the matter, not until the end at least where Chara has had enough of your shenanigans and nukes the universe just to keep you out.

Kris is no different than Frisk, only they are more self aware. Kris knows they're being controlled. Frisk is mindlessly getting controlled by you, Kris tries to fight against it. The scenes of them ripping their soul out - the main tool you as the player use to control them, show that. They don't want to be in your control We also see in the hospital in chapter two Susie knows that Kris can play the piano, but when you as the player try to do it, Kris makes an upset face. Kris can play the piano, but you're not Kris and you probably can't, so yeah I think that's a nice detail

I LOVE this analysis, and I particularly like your discussion of Chara!! Having them as a twisted reflection of the player isn't a take I've heard before, but it's really interesting (although I'm very very biased for "Chara was a sad kid who needed therapy and also is the narrator" lol). I would love to hear your take on more of Chara's lore. I think one of the most nightmarish things about the No Mercy route is how they start to slowly spiral alongside you. The bag of dog food.... (starts crying) And the ways in which Chara parallels both Flowey and Noelle's character development -- how by being kind you can convince someone who thought he was long gone to give himself another chance, and how thoroughly you can manipulate a kind person into doing evil. And all of that being told through the NARRATION. Undertale is just so fucking insanely good.

My take on Chara is very convoluted. I believe them to feel malice towards specifically humanity and have a very complex plan to try to kill them off, but that they harbour no actual ill will toward monsters. Idea goes like this >entice player into Geno >use world as blackmail for their soul >have them do Pacifist again (note they even say this themself to you) >now free to get rid of humanity Of course, the neat thing is how open-ended the character is, with which you can come to many many different conclusions. I do think they, in that particular route, were intended to reflect the player symbolically, and I do agree it's on the player for going the whole way through, but I also believe Chara wanted it from the start and did what little they could to encourage it without saying "Hi please kill everyone" since that would just make you not want to. Their hatred for humanity that's mentioned several times, plus now lacking a soul, means they're willing to get everyone killed to put themself in a position to take revenge on humanity for whatever exactly it is that made them hate humans (which I think we all agree seems to be a traumatic upbringing and unchecked mental issues). I do think in another world, they could be a good person, but Asriel says himself they were kind of problematic even in life

The parallels between Chara & Noelle are very interesting. How they both assume you're just teaching them to become stronger. How they both are shy at first (Chara hiding behind Flowers in flashbacks) but become far more confident by the end of the run. And how, at the end of Snowgrave when all hope seems lost against Spamton NEO *Kris* it's emphasized, calls out for Susie, who they truly consider a close friend unlike Ralsei, calling for her twice, then calls out for Ralsei when she doesn't come... But he doesn't come either. Finally, *You* whispered Noelle's name... And she came. What is it Chara calls themself? "The Demon that comes when you call it's name." I wonder if these parallels will continue, they have no reason not to! If maybe, one day, if we keep going the way we are with Noelle, one day she will ask us if we want to destroy the only thing left standing and we will say no. Then she'll realize. She'll realize none of this was for a purpose, we killed, or "guided" her to kill because we wanted to & thought we could get away with it. "It was you who pushed everything to it's edge" "But you cannot accept it." "You think you're above consequences." And then, like Chara, she'll punish us like we deserve.

I just realized. The character collect screen really shows off Kris's relationship with the player. You expect to join this new world much like you did in Undertale, as an unnamed character who can interact with the world around them. But that's not an option. You have to uproot Kris almost entirely to experience the world. You had a choice to leave at any time, but instead, you choose to keep going. Its worse than only experimentation, as now you have friends. You can choose to kill others, at the extend of Ralsei trying to give you a lecture. But as time goes on, you realize Kris isn't the only one you can change...

What makes undertale super interesting and so terrifying is that unlike the usual horror genre, or even psychological horror genre where events in the game affect you, it's you affecting the game. Even games like doki doki lit. Club, a fascinating game that broke the 4th wall exceptionally and terrified people, undertale and deltarune are the consequences of your own actions and make people realize that you make things happen, and these consequences are YOUR doing. This is why kris rips the soul out of their body every single chance they get, Noelle hears a voice that is not Kris to freeze people, and even after you kill spamton neo, it is very apparent that Kris cant control even their own dialogue because of you. Unlike frisk, the shell that you can fit inside to display who you truly are, kris is their own person who is under your control. Undertale, the pacifist route was to prove flowey wrong, the genocide, the enemy was you. I believe the true enemy would be you in deltarune, it's apparent.
