The Deltarune Version Is Now Out On My Channel!: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pd6pZLiCyb6ueZs.html

*DO NOT* do the genocide route unless you want your copy permanently tainted. Unlike most games, Undertale remembers if you've completed killing everyone and will mock you for trying to make up for it later by resetting.

Fun fact: after Chara did that attack at the end the game was supposed to uninstall itself.

I think Chara is more of the "consequences of your actions" than the villain of the Undertale. (As the player is Canon to the Undertale lore, making us the "True Villain" in. The geno route)

gaster has so much potential in the fandom to be so terrifying

It's hilarious how genocide route is basically just a normal RPG but in Undertale it's regarded as psychological horror just because the game outwardly tells you you're evil.

Flowey's odd introduction isn't a byproduct of the genocide route, as he's the first monster you will see in a playthrough. Flowey can remember previous timelines, so if you restart the game (without reaching the true pacifist or genocide ending) he'll remember what you've done. This is most notable when doing neutral endings, as well as quitting out after killing Toriel in order to go back and spare her.

An undertale fun fact: there are way more endings to the game than 4. However the other endings are sub endings that only change the text at the end

A very good undertale horror experience is Undertαle ( with the alpha a). Its a sprite comic that revolves around an imposter pretending to be some of the game characters, like Toriel. It has a few different endings that makes it unique. Also, Horrortale was originally a comic by SourAppleStudios, who has even made their own ( albiet short) game of horrortale. The main plot is that soon after Frisk leaves the underground, the CORE shuts down, causing all of the monsters to begin to starve. Its interesting honesty

When I first played genocide, I felt so bad for Papyrus that I spared him. I felt absolutely horrible when I killed Papyrus at the second run.

Fun Fact: But Nobody Came Is Flowey's Theme Slowed By 666%

And this is why I have NEVER even THOUGHT of starting the genocide route, I love the cast too much to do that.

I like this analysis, but i noticed a issue i have with a lot of these discussions. That being: referring to "the player" as a different entity to yourself. It kinda removes some of the accountability this route comes with. Although, maybe you addressed this, I haven't watched the whole video yet

NOTE: Ive been getting alot of people commenting about how Genocide is not the fault of Chara but me the player, I am aware of this, as I was the one who chose to go down that route for the video. chara was just a character that needed to be mentioned in order to truly cover the horror aspects of undertale, with that being said Ive gotten 50+ comments ridiculing me about this one issue alone so I am addressing it here.

Bro really 1940 the monster race. I hope your happy killin Papyrus lol

I liked the video, I would like to say first of all, the flowey thing is just if you’re restarting a file you didn’t finish and so you’d already met flowey. You wouldn’t have been able to start genocide yet as you haven’t encountered enemies. Otherwise, you did a good job explaining stuff.

Man, I love seeing people's first reactions to this route especially after completing the Pacifist route. The story just shifts so much and it's so interesting to follow, even if heartbreaking. I remember the first time experiencing the route being close to tears during Papyrus's death, n being highly disturbed by how much Undyne tried to fight back uselessly (her Neutral death is so much more gruesome too, people don't talk enough about it!) and then yeah. Sans made me cry first time around. Honestly having this creepy dark route in the game made me appreciate the good ending so much more :')

Two things I love about the genocide route that people get wrong is that it doesn't matter if you do it or not. You considered it at one point And that sans isn't trying to kill you, he knows he can't, his goal is to actively fuck with the player to get them to reset or stop playing. He isn't a badass like Undyne or Asgore, he's just trying to get you into giving up

Tbh Flowey feels like a creepypasta when you think about it. I mean, he knows about Saving and Save files, something that a video game character should not know about, he shares a completely different worldview that’s the complete opposite of the actual game (kill or be killed compared to the games be nice and help others), he can be seen watching the player at times, many of his faces are just straight up terrifying, and the Photoshop Flowey fight is straight out of a classic artstyle switch. He even comments that if you kill Toriel and reset after then spare her, he knows that you must have felt guilty so you went back and spared her.

On Undyne the Undying, I felt the same way. It took me a whole week to beat him. NOW I’M STILL STUCK ON SANS AND I’VE BEEN FIGHTING HIM FOR A MONTH NOW!!!!!!!!!

Wanted to point out that the stuff regarding Flowey recognizing you as Chara at the very start of the game at 2:41, this is actually just a lesser known line of dialogue if you start a playthrough of undertale and restart before you fight Toriel (not 100% sure if it happens specifically before you fight Toriel but the dialogue changes based off of the story progression from whenever you reset your savefile)

Slendertale's jumpscare is unironically still one of the best jumpscares I've ever seen in any horror game.

3:05 The sad part comes from a fan game, called Storyshift Chara Facing Demons, if you tried to immediately spare her, there’s a bunch of text at the end that really brings you to tears

I liked that you named yourself Kira for your Genocide run. Cool to see another Death Note fan

The Papyrus fight literally broke my heart when I first did genocide, like it genuinely H U R T, I actually deleted my save and did Pacifist I felt that awful.

honestly i feel like the assumption that the genocide route is directly chara's fault is a bit lame it sorta gives a scape goat to the idea of the genocide route, which seems to exist entirely to make the players who went through it think about the attrocities that were committed tbh i dont even think chara being completely in control of frisk's actions was even the intended message, rather she's reffering to her control over the game itself (ie. erase button and fucking up future passivist runs

4:23 Have To Do? *YOU* Didn't Have To Do It, *YOU* Chose To Do It.

5:20 How did I only notice now that Flowey says ''That's a wonderful idea!''

12:59 funniest part is, sans isn't even strong, he has one attack and one defense, people only find him hard because of KR and no inv frames.

Fun fact: Chara Isn’t the bad guy. Here’s proof. If you repeat the genocide a couple times chara will sound very disgusted with you Also I tried playing genocide route, i just don’t got the guts too

"hellbent on turning everyone and everything, to ruins" it wasnt chara who killed every monster it wasnt chara that gained 20 love. it wasnt chara that killed every single thing alive it was you. chara learned from you. the villian of the genocide route isnt chara, no its you. the player.

By the way, Chara or "Mirage" as you named them, can stop the genocide route anytime they want or *you* want.

Seeing someone react to the sans fight for the first time never gets old

2:32 A bit of an error here. They recognize you as an old friend after you did Genocide in the ruins, the reason is who Flowey used to be, and they think Chara feels the same way since both of them died!

Am i the only one who noticed how he had a full inventory of butterscotch pies?

ahhh, theres nothing i love more than watching people do first play throughs of undertale!!! I remember how i felt the first time i played it, so seeing other people always makes me just a liiittle bit happier. no sure if you're already going this, but i'd love to see if you had any theories or any input on Deltarune, and the snowgrave route; considering it put so much into so little. Anyways, hope to see more content from you! Ive been on a binge of your videos haha, they're great to play in the background whilst im drawing. keep up the work!!! proudly subscribed and happy i found your channel 🔥🔥

There are like 70 endings to the game: Genocide, True pacifist, a ton of neutrals like flawed pacifist, the you cheated ending and not a different ending more of a sub-ending of True Pacifist which I call the True Hypocrite route (you do a pacifist but because after you get the phone call from Undyne you're locked on true pacifist you can start killing)

you have gained a subscriber bro, great content keep going!

really nice vid dude, keep it up!

Can we talk about the fact thag bro used file0 to give himself infinite pies

This was a great video!

i love your videos keep up the good work!

i do not want to do a genocide route, i'd feel so incredibly guilty killing these characters after recently finishing a pacifist route, but i really want to see the alternative dialogue.

I get what youre saying, throughout most of the game i felt a certain sense of melancholy and slight unease, esp the snow area, which i hardly ever see mentioned by others

theres a comic of horrortale you might wanna read that

I think the most screwed up part of undertale is the sadistic choices you can make such as killing siren at the height of her singing or killing toriel when she spares you. The game looks at you like the monster you are and really makes you feel like a horrible person for what you did. The most screwed up thing you can do is kill the two royal guards after they just fall in love for each other. It's so brutal.

I don't want to be picky. However, Flowey (at the beginning) will only use that dialog if you meet him and then reset. Flowey can recognize resets and, unless its a true reset. Flowey will give different dialog.

One thing you missed was the true lab, which you can access in the pacifist route

2:27 that just happened whenever you erase the save and restart. Although most people would see it when trying genocide mode, so I see the mistake. I figured that out when I erased my save because I wanted to start from the beginning (I started a while ago and wanted to finish, but I haven’t played in a while so I was inexperienced)

The Genocide Route being "the wrong way to play" is such a dumb mindset. I understand why people don't want to play it, but it's not "the wrong way to play". It's just another route to take, and imo it's an important experience that fans should have. It's supposed to make you feel awful. It's supposed to be harder than the other routes. It's supposed to make you question your own morality. That's the point.

Underrated channel great vid:)

Toby gets away with far more than what should be legally allowed.

Just oen thing i wanted to add, is that the player, as in, you, the person playing the game, is meant to also be a character influencing the world and actively taking part Chara embodies the stats and is a mirror of You, that's why they have such vague backstory and can be named anything, you are meant to see yourself in them, and in Genocide, Chara is but a mirror of yourself, You are the one contorlling Frisk around, pupettering them, and using them for yoyr bidding, whatever that might be, Chara is merely the facilitator between the game and you, but this is entirely part of the game's story, so much so that in both Pacifist and Genocide endings, Flowey and Chara ddress YOU very directly as a person You are a in-universe character, and i think this wasn't as understood before we had Deltarune which delves much more on the Player-Played Character relationship that admittedly Ubdertale didn't go too deep into

Do genocide route while on a call with a friend, if you really want to see it. Its way less traumatizing.

When you realize his inventory was just butterscotch pie and the sans defeat wasn’t his own footage

I was just like you, since most of my undertale knowledge before playing it were some scary moments in the true lab, which I thought to be the ENTIRE GAME, I got way too scared to even try searching further, lol

1:09 For one, it can’t be self defense because Papyrus and Monster Kid don’t even attack you, and Undyne who’s a seasoned warrior almost gets instantly killed by you after you attempted to murder Monster Kid! At that point, Undyne was right to fight you! Also Chara sadly gets blamed for all of that, because they’re the only character to directly confront the *PLAYER* and not Frisk about their actions!

Undyne always hunts you down like that, that's not different even in the Genocide route

when you reset your save file WITHOUT a True Reset, certain characters remember that and have different dialogue. E.g. Toriel having different dialogue depending on what preference you selected in the first run, and which one you selected in the next run (same or opposite).

the fandom apparently hating the genocide route of undertale is crazy considering the fact it's a literal route you can pick on the game. Personally genocide route is my favorite out of all of them because it gives you the most interesting lore out of the other 2.

If the only monster you kill in your entire run is papyrus when sans is judging you, he will ask you that if you have a special power shouldn't you use it for good. If you answer yes then he will say "T h e n w h y d i d y o u k i l l m y b r o t h e r" and when he says it his eyes will go black and no music or or the noise of him speaking will play.

What was with the multiple pies during sans?

After Deltarune came out, the horror aspect was kinda turned up after Chapter 2, snowgrave is said to feel like an actual creepypasta, and with Kris ripping out “their” soul and with characters saying that while with “their” soul, they don’t feel like themselves really hammers in the idea that YOU are the one causing this, not Frisk, not Chara, but YOU, the player cause this genocide

'even trought the underground is no more you still feel an eerie felling as if someone is watching you...'

"You expected an average comment here" *but nobody came*

I couldn't bring myself to do genocide because there was nothing to be gained, and everything to lose. It wasn't worth doing for me, at the cost of gaslighting a child into believing killing was the only way, that's too cruel for me. Chara has already suffered enough. Oh yeah, and killing everyone when they could instead be spared, cant forget about that either.

interesting that you did that, but i won't ever do a genocide myself for several reasons. not in the least of which is that i love the monsters too much to turn on them.

I vividly remember all of the mystery in undertale and the darker aspects of it scary me quite a bit when I first found out about it in 2016. Personally I still to this day consider those horror aspects to be a part of undertale’s identity probably more than others would.

alright so the thing about you doing the genocide route is that if you try to get true pacifist after it chara does a little trolling and murders everybody anyways

Aint no one gonna mention how this guy had billions of pies in his inventory?

Chara is not the one to blame. The player is the one at fault. Chara is even disgusted by your "twisted sense of humour" if you do the genocide route twice in a row.

Genocide is a very underrated route, it really makes you feel awful, but the curiosity of what lies at the end, continues to push you forward It doesn't even reward you, Toriel and Papyrus go down with no fight, Undyne makes you angry, but sadly dies, Mettaton hypes up a huge boss fight, but is easily defeated in one hit by your pure strength, just for Sans to make you fall into despair, the character who has been laid back in the Pacifist Route, and shows up multiple times to check up on you, and hang out Even using all his power, dodging attacks, causing damage per-frame, and keeping his turn going on forever as a last ditch effort to stop you, fails, as he bleeds out, and imagines his brother before turning to dust And if that wasn't enough, your actions had revived the First human as a thing of pure destruction, Chara was always messed up, but they were never evil, you twisted their mind, and its too late to go back, you are either with them, or against them, but either way, the outcome is the same Maybe the real monster is truly Human kind also quick correction, 2:33 is not from Genocide, you cant even start Genocide until after this room This dialog is for when you do a soft reset after having already met Flowey

2:34 this is actually just what happens if you reset after finishing the game once. not a genocide route exclusive thing

12:48 i see 3 too many pies here haha

the feeling of dread you get when sans confronts you for the first time in the judgement hall it genuinely makes you ache when you realize that hes not going to spare you, hes gonna do what you did to his whole kind.

I first discovered Undertale thanks to a video by SomeOrdinaryGamers, back when he was mostly creepypasta-focused. Because of the fact it was on his channel, I assumed it was some weird, niche, indie horror game. The thumbnail being black and white really reminded me of Strawberry Cubes, which I had just watched him play immediately prior. Safe to say, I was totally expecting something fucked up to happen the whole time he was going through the Ruins. And then, when the 3 episodes of his playthrough ended (the rest was lost due to hard drive failure, I believe), I knew I had to seek out another playthrough. I wanna say the next one I watched was Vinesauce Joel's? It's hard to remember. Either way, it's funny how Undertale can give off that sort of "weird indie horror game" vibe when it's not that at all. Also, an inventory-ful of pies during the Sans fight? Nice inventory editing.

I'm sorry, but Flowey getting chopped into a salad will always be the most satisfying thing in the game to me. Also, to this day, the community at large still has very little idea of who/what Chara actually *is.* Sure, they're the first human, yadda yadda yadda, but we really don't know their whole motivation or reason for the genocide route. Are they doing it? Are they going along with the player? Are they the consequences of your actions? Why do they call themselves a demon? They're also the narrator too, and they might be in Deltarune Chapter 1's opening.

fun fact: the reason flowey will act like he knows you is because he confuses you with chara, his best friend, hence being why the track being named "your best friend"

You should try this fan game: undertale last breath

Fun Fact: In Undertale’s Geno Route, if you check RG01&2, you get a special dialogue quoting the Japanese novel; Kitchen by Banana Yoshimoto.

hella clean

I THOUGHT IT WAS A HORROR GAME AT FIRST TOO AND I COMPLETELY FORGOT THAT JUST UNLOCKED A MEMORY.

honestly i think you should have talked about saving and reloading and resetting more, cause it really shows how utterly hopeless the underground is in genocide as even if the play dies they will come back and come back and come back, bit by bit learning and overcoming the fights, and sans's end goal is to anger and bore you into resetting and in fact thats what the whole game does, undertale the game punishes the player for doing the genocide run, all the fun is striped away and you are left with just a grind, 2 very hard bosses and all for a bad ending that leaves your copy tainted.

Its just a burning memory is terrifying in infinite ways. Sitting there, its just a burning memory playing in your head, straight face, soulless. Thats true horror. I‘ll always regret doing genocide

Saw this in my fyp you're about to blow up bro

9:47 to see bro go from a calm smooth talk to Fortnite child is scary and funny.

Fun fact for undyne the undying,The torn notebook makes the fight so much easyer with cloudy galsses.Same with sans.

The "why'd you make me introduce myself" line is just a reset quirk

the first time i saw undertale in 2015, it was in a thumbnail of one of the battle sprites, making me think this was going to be a horror game from the time like imscared's white face

I used to be scared of but nobody came, but it’s normal now =)

He was using tough gloves on Undyne. OF COURSE it's going to be harder than usual.

Thought this was gonna be a video essay about in-game horrors, but then it kinda went all over the places. Oh well. Really hate the audio mixing in this though - the narration is very quiet, and the game sound and jumpscares are much louder. Had to keep my finger on the audio level button.

floweys dialogue at the start of the game only changed because you did a reset which flowey remembers

i replayed this game with my gf for the holidays since it makes me very nostalgic for christmas. we went thru the whole game thinking i was just doing a regular pacifist run, then the final scene hit and frisk turns over in bed and their eyes were red. my last genocide run was years ago and i wiped the data before too, caught me so off guard i got chills. From Fucking Undertale.

Sans knew he cannot beat you, his objective wasn't to kill Frisk, it was to make you leave the game. He is comparing you/the human to a god of his world and we can theorize this is the reason of why Sans is so lazy because only him (and maybe Flowey) know that there is nothing he can do. If you spare Sans, he will instant kill you but he was actually trying to help you with this because he said that if you are his friend, you wouldn't come back, meaning that you need to reset. If you still come back, he will tell the most heartbreaking quote in my opinion : "Wow you look REALLY pissed, guess I did a good job. In the end, we never were friends, aren't we ? Do me a favor, please don't tell this to the others sans, ok ? They will be really sad if they know the truth about you." I don't remember the dialogue correctly but I think I got the idea.

i did true pacifist and reset for literally every other ending completion thats neutral. rn im going for family tree

Me too I saw the stronger than you Chara version video and thought I'm gonna play my first ever horror bloody game

1:13 three main ways, I'm crying 😭

9:08 a thing I noticed in genocide route you can no longer buy tems college i tried to buy it so I could get the armor for Undyne but it’s not there

Everyone is all like “omg genocide route is so scary!!” But the neutral runs are even more scary, in genocide you kill everyone, but in neutral there are people still alive who haven’t realized their friends are dead. Some of the deaths are brutal too like undynes. Also most of the ending calls from sans are heartbreaking as there doesn’t seem to be any hope left for monster kind.
