      Ay just so you know, the Horrortale game is a pretty messy "attempted" recreation of the Horrortale COMIC made by Sour Apple Studios, if you wanna check it out I recommend it. This was a nice video and I'm probably gonna go watch more, keep it up fam.

    *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.

    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.

      The internet turned him into a normal dude, we don't know what or who he really is although he has a big role in Deltarune with characters such as jevil and spamton. Jevil is kind of insane with his boss fight as hard as sans, he says he's the only one who's free but his freedom is very lonely. Spamton on the other hand is terrifying, on the surface he's an unhinged and funny man but behind that smile is something dark and sinister. Spamton is a lot more insane and has a much deeper lore than Jevil.

    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

    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.

    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 :')

    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)

    • @kingflamesir
      @kingflamesir 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Actually, the dialouge at the beginning with Flowey that the video stated was him recognizing you as Chara has nothing to even do with Chara.
      In Undertale, if you reset before you get an ending, the game doesn't treat it as resetting a file, but more resetting the timeline, hence determination being called the power to change fate in Undertale, and Flowey knows about the timeline because he has determination, so he asks why the player had him reintroduce himself because he remembers the other playthrough you did.

      Sans basically cheats. He bends the rules of the game, because at that point he’d do anything to stop the human. He gets the first attack, he dodges attacks, his attacks ignore invincibility frames and apply KR, he even attacks you in the menu. As a last resort, he doesn’t do anything on his turn, so that the player never gets their turn.

      To be fair the monster are kind of at fault here spoilers ahead.
      They killed children so they can take their souls to amass enough power to break a barrier. This spawned a vengeful soul that lead to their destruction. The monsters were placed in a barrier to begin with because they waged war with the humans to begin with, if i recall to amass power by stealing souls go figure. While going through the game from beginning to end pacifist or genocide you are attacked through the entire thing. And this isn't even counting the horrible experiments they were doing to their own. Even the queen of the realm abandoned them because of how horrible they were being, going as far as to say you are just like them when you backstab her in a brutal way.
      Not saying genocide is the answer just saying the monsters are very much at fault here.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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!

  • @Punykirby
    @Punykirby 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    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

    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.

    @tigerbear5845 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Feel like you left out the most creepy part of the genocide run in Undertale. It's permanent consequences... (Spoilers)
    So, if you replay the game doing the true pacifist run, after finishing a genocide run, everything is exactly the same except for the very last scene (which varies depending if you stay with Toriel or not) which implies that Chara takes control of Frisk's body, and then maybe proceeds to kill everyone.
    So doing a genocide run permanently taints the good ending of the game because of the consequences of your actions.*
    *Unless you edit the save file... Or your like me and just use task manager when Chara offers you the choice to destroy the world, showing this demon child that their not the one in control.

    Hey i haven't watched the whole video yet, so i probably shouldn't be commenting yet, but question:
    How the heck did you think Undertale was a horror game? Anything the Internet might've told you about Undertale before playing it probably wouldn't have clued you in to it's scarier aspects(i.e people making memes about sans), or at the absolute most spoilery, you would've known that its scary moments are few & far in between, and thus hit harder because they catch you off guard. I'm not trying to be nitpicky, it just struck me as really odd.

    lil explanation of determination on monsters: determination is normal for humans, but not for monsters, making them melt and get REALLY disturbing and gross, one example of melted character is undyne itself, that melts when she dies because of her determination.
    determinated = unable to die, but can make you *suffer* if you're a monster.

    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.

    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.

    Chara is pure influenced by your LV like frisk is. Frisk killed sans, asgore and flowey by themself because well... they follow your lead right? But something is different about Chara. They will seem like a monster but.. every genocide you complete, chara will reveal that they thought you were "doing this of curiosity at first" but second time? They think you are sick. They will keep saying stuff to you in the next ones that make it even worse the feeling of being a *monster* .

    This is my opinion on the matter Chara. If you disagree, that's fine.
    Listen, Chara is just an enabler. Chara didn't 'control' you throughout the entire game (maybe a bit toward the end) but it was YOU, the player. YOU had chosen to go through each place and seek out all those monsters. The genocide ending is glorified. A majority of it is not fun, and it's meant to not be fun. It's meant to get you to stop going down this path. The encounters get less and less frequent each monster you kill, and all fun events/puzzles are disabled. But no, YOU continued. YOU chose to see it through to the end, and what did you get? Your future playthroughs of this game forever tainted (unless you go into the code or something). I understand using Chara as a scapegoat, but Chara didn't do anything but encourage you. Do not be mistaken.

    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.
