[QUOTE=Falchion;49415594]It might be even harder after true pacifist but geno is only a good pain and the games real challenge. It's a bit sad seeing many people refusing to play some of the best parts of the game.[/QUOTE]
Is it sad?
(big spoils)[sp]A big part of the meta-story of the game is that resetting the entire world to see what happens when you kill everyone just because you can is plain fucked up. The game begs you NOT to do it. Is it really "sad" if players miss out on it when that's kind of a major thematic point of the game? Sure you could say that its sad because a part of the game may go unseen, but if that bothered Toby then he wouldn't have made not seeing it into a major story element.[/sp]
What would you think if there was a secret ending where you stay with Toriel in the ruins after staying in her house for about 15 minutes?

(ty cirrulean again and elderlolz and OF COURSE ROBOTBOY655)
(and no we didn't rip that 2nd one from something awful, it was remade and made better)
We must add more dogmoticons.
An exciting chapter in Facepunch history.

nothing would make me happier than to have an entire category dedicated to 'dogs' lmao, but I'm not sure what else would work and I'm not gonna add just anything. I have to really see use for it and like it.
What about that "Funny" version of Dog?

[sp]Mechanically speaking, they're not getting an opportunity to play the most satisfyingly challenging (depending on who you ask) parts of the game. And at the same time, they get insight on more of the story and character development. You get to see such a different side of certain characters; even if you had previously thought you knew them really well from the neutral and pacifist endings.
But here's the thing, Toby designed that route of the game because he deliberately wanted people to explore their morbid curiosity when a game asks a player to not kill things. And in doing so, he played with the ideas surrounding determination, saving, and resets to create a meta story that acknowledges the drives of completionists that compel them to try every route and combination possible. Similarly, Toby deliberately didn't highlight Toriel's name in yellow and drastically dropped her defense when her health is low enough as a trap for players who think they're smarter than the game. In doing such, it locked them into a neutral run or they attempted to game the system but got called out for it.
Toby knew what he was doing, and the main game itself is very tight-wound. The only things that the player may be left to wonder at the end of it all is regarding Sans' threat at MTT resort. Plus there were a few instances where the game detailed about how defenses drop when an intent-to-kill is great in an attacker...which comes together when Sans judges you and he reveals what EXP and LOVE are. For those loose ends, the Genocide route ties them up.[/sp]

It's sad but also sometimes funny and has a couple of really intense bossfights which are miles ahead (especially the difficulty leap is massive) of neutral or pacifist bosses. Also it reveals some stuff no other end really touches aside from slight hints and [sp] sort of deconstructs the story of the other routes in a somewhat depressing way. [/sp]
It's a very good "final" run and a great end if you can stand ending on a sour note
[QUOTE=EmilyVasquez;49415753]What about that "Funny" version of Dog?[/QUOTE]
I'm also hesitant to just add a dog alt of all our current emoticons. even though that's exactly what I did with :dogcited:. I couldn't resist that one.

:dogcited: This is truly the best day in my life
Just [sp]beat the Pacifist-Neutral and True Pacifist endings[/sp] and the game has truly been one of the best surprises all year. Definitely one of my favorite games now.

A lot of people were telling me that I needed to make her hunch forward.
[sp]i tried modelling one of the spikes... i can't stay determined someone help me[/sp]
[QUOTE=postal;49415237]Also god damn youtube is flooded with covers from this game right now lmao. I even found someone that combined 13 covers of Megalovania all together.[/QUOTE]
[URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykkkR062JQQ"]For anyone wondering[/URL]
Given how many new covers have popped up since that one, I am truly afraid to one day see 50 megalovania songs combined together
[QUOTE=salty peanut v2;49415580]the absolute worst thing about undertale fans is how they try to be all cryptic like this for the laughs but in the process they just ruin all the surprises. it happens all the damn time right in this thread[/QUOTE]is that not the entire point of spoiler tags? to have.. y'know.. spoilers?
(unless it didn't originally have tags and was edited)
