Let's beat Undertale, and kill EVERYONE

Therm is gonna hate it when he redoes pacifist and gets to the end of it.

As someone who loved Undertale from day one, it makes my day to see all these years later people experiencing it for the first time. It's so rare now. That silence at the first "but nobody came." was EVERYTHING

the fact he was close to the end of the sans fight ON HIS SECOND TRY is really impressive

here's a fun detail i enjoy. Asriel (as flowey and as himself) consistently greets the player with "howdy!", a habit that you can later infer he picked up from asgore. meanwhile, the first fallen human (default name Chara) says "Greetings", which is toriel's habit

The Toriel reaction was probably the best part here “Let’s start chipping away-oh MY GOD.” 12:34

One really subtle thing about the Genocide route I noticed is that the “!” before encounters is eventually replaced by a smile.

Undyne melted when you killed her because in that fight she somehow generated determination, her body eventually couldn’t take the strain anymore and melted before turning into dust, the melting also happened to the amalgamates due to the determination in their system and monsters fused together and formed them

"After this is all over, I'm going through on my own time and doing everything my own way so everybody gets their happy ending" Oh... yeah. They deserve that happiness.

“You’ll have to erase my memories too” Therm: I’ll gladly kill off Flowey

i love how the literal point of the genocide run is to make you accept that you are the one who did this, but therm just keeps blaming other people

i dont know why but therm saying 'A LIFE' in response to sans saying 'papyrus, do you want anything?' made me both start cackling and tear up

I made my gf play through the pacifist run and then bought the game for myself for the sole purpose of never tainting that happy safe file. Forever untouched and free.

I absolutely love the True Reset, Toby’s final tug on your heartstrings by making the villain of the game beg you to not erase the happy ending you worked so hard to get everyone Yet his speech is said with a feeling of inevitability, he knows that it’s likely that you’ll go back and ruin everything, that anyone who loves the world enough won’t listen Then you get to the menu, and see the True Reset itself, and it’s amazing The usually lively file select screen that’s normally populated with the characters doing fun things, is now completely empty, barren of all the monsters because they’re all gone, they have no reason to stay in this abandoned mountain, but you’re here, even though you shouldn’t be, like them, you should leave this Undertale and head back to the surface, you aren’t meant to be here, and that atmosphere is emphasised by the droning music in the background, it’s slow, horrid, the type of stuff you’d only hear on the genocide route, and it’s fitting because being here, hovering over that true reset button is a form of starting that genocide, first you kill their happy ending and then you kill them (You can actually hear this droning music in the video if you listen closely on the menu screen 1:33) But yeah, amazing work by Toby to make you feel like crap before you’ve even began the geno route

sorry idk why i'm just DYING at the completely unexpected baseball tier-list at the end of the video. what a great way to diffuse the tension after a really emotionally rough run.

32:35 This is the point that Sans talked about. The more you distance yourself, the easier it becomes to hurt others. 'Taking her out.' 'Getting into a rhythm.' 'I did it, this is a big moment'. This is the point where I can hear Therm speak like he is playing a game and this is a challenge that needs to be conquered. Forgetting that you are the villian and the true hero does not stand a chance. The same thing happens when people fight Sans, they get frustrated and only... once the final blow hits do they realize what they've done.

This route literally just destroys your humanity. At the beginning, he was guilty for killing one froggit but by the end you could tell he didn't give a crap anymore

Fun fact: The I Frames in Undertale are called Mercy Frames. Depending on the fight your Mercy Frames differ. It's the amount of time before you can take damage after being damaged by an attack, and things can influence it. For example the more of an enemy type you spare, the more Mercy Frames you get. The monster is showing you Mercy. Sans gives you no Mercy Frames. He does 1 damage, every frame. Quite literally no Mercy. Also, in Undertale you do damage based on your intent to hurt. That's why boss monsters are almost always instant killed. And why Sans takes 999999 damage. Your character is pissed.

at the end my heart was hurting so bad and then therm just starts GIGGLING at chara's "Greetings."

If you spare Sans, he doesn't actually spare you. The soul they're referring to at the very end of that route isn't the heart that appears in combats... It's the player's soul. In this case, your soul... You being Therm. Sometimes people will react to things they shouldn't know from previous playthroughs, like Toriel guessing your previous answer to the Cinnamon vs Butterscotch question. When you play through this time, you'll likely get a little bit of new dialog or whatever here and there... But probably not enough for a whole new video.

I bet therm had a heart attack when he beat the game in pacifist again after he sold his soul
