anethia Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I don't think I could ever do a no-mercy run. It just feels, dirty. Maybe I'm just over sentimental, but the thought of killing most of the denizens of the underground feels wrong. Except Jerry. I wouldn't feel bad about killing him. For those who have attempted a no-mercy run, know this. Your sins will never truly be gone... I'd like to politely remind you and everyone to try not to use that term; it heavily spoils things aka the ending of that particular run. The name itself gives it away. Anyway, doing a full no-mercy run puts a global flag on your Undertale game basically. It marks you out as having done it, and the game reacts accordingly. But I agree; I can NOT stomach a no-mercy run, it's horrible, and I wouldn't manage to even take out Toriel. And when it comes down to Undyne, I think I'd let her win to be honest. She deserves to be the hero the underground needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other news, Undertale has official merchandise out now. If you had any say, what would you want to see up for sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Felix Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 What happens if you use the Fight command, but don't kill the enemy? I hit Toriel a few times, but didn't kill her. Thought it was like Pokemon where they would accept mercy of they were weaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way to ruin your run is to actually end someones life (or miss out on side missions, but those are obvious.) As long as you never gain any Exp, you can still get a pacifist ending.

anethia Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Then you're fine to get a pacifist ending. If you haven't finished a Neutral Ending, though, you have to finish that before going True Pacifist. I'll put the conditions here in a spoiler; so if you want True Pacifist, finish the Neutral Ending (play through the game as you have been) then do the conditions. x Kill absolutely NOBODY. x Go on a date with Papyrus; you have to flirt with him turn one upon fighting him. x Pour water on Undyne after running from her enough times. x Hang out/Cook with Undyne (visit her house). x After reloading your save file after the neutral ending, walk out and keep backtracking until you get a phone call from Undyne. Go to Snowdin, retrieve her letter and give it to Alphys. x Befriend and date Alphys. x Visit Alphys' lab and enter the "bathroom". x Complete the set of events there (I highly recommend you read the signs). x Finish the game normally; you will enter the fight with Asgore but an event will trigger before you can do anything.

Etesian Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 first impression of Flowey like: Oh what a cute little flower friend. I saw him in the trailer... he must be the mascot character! What a cutie. HOLY SHIT FUCKING HELL That becomes all the more impactful if you consider that there used to be a instruction manual in the demo (The devs messed something up (I think?), so it didn't make it into the final game). You could go through it before you start playing the demo and it has Flowey as a helpful guide in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhelanie Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) So, who do you think Chara represents? I think this is the "big question" of the game And am I the only one who likes Flowey? x Kill absolutely NOBODY. x Go on a date with Papyrus; you have to flirt with him turn one upon fighting him. x Pour water on Undyne after running from her enough times. x Hang out/Cook with Undyne (visit her house). x After reloading your save file after the neutral ending, walk out and keep backtracking until you get a phone call from Undyne.

It doesn't matter that much if you don't do all of this as long as you don't kill anybody though. You'll just get neutral and be allowed to reload and do whatever you missed to get the true ending Edited November 2, 2015 by Zhelanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for most of them, you can do them after the reload. I just did them during my original playthrough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was lead to believe that while the dating portion was optional, and simply hanging out with Papyrus was all that was needed. I am sure that pouring water on Undyne is necessary though. As long as you get their phone numbers, I think should act as an indicator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Felix Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 What happens if you buy the most expensive Tem Flake? Does Tem say anything about her college education? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Combat Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 What happens if you buy the most expensive Tem Flake? Does Tem say anything about her college education? No, buying the different flakes has no real effect on the game play. You can use them to form an infinite money generation machine of sorts, but asides from that, the only use they have is for giving to Temmie during her battle.

I think you can hang out with him even if you spare him in a genocide run, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyRunner Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 So, who do you think Chara represents? I think this is the "big question" of the game I think that Chara represents you i.e. the completionist player. The main reason why people do the Genocide run, myself included, seems to be that they want to see every possible ending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anethia Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I think Chara represents the evil and guilt from the bad actions you do that eats away at you until it consumes/overtakes you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etesian Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 I don't really think Chara is just a representation, Chara IS Chara. The coffin we found in the castle which has Chara's name is empty. It's said somewhere (don't remember where exactly) that Toriel took the body and gave it a proper burial. Also, with the patch of flowers in the ruins where you start the game, after you spare Toriel, if you go back immediately, you can see her watering those flowers. And with Flowey's attachment to Chara, it'd make sense that Chara was buried under those (Flowey grew them after the burial). And we also know that Human souls stick around after death, unlike monster souls. So what if, when we fell into the Ruins, on top of his grave, we absorbed his soul. If you give in to Chara's desires and do a Genocide run, they possess you; or rather, you let them. But if you do a pacifist run, you resist it, you resist Chara.

star-kin Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 my thoughts exactly. chara is..well, chara. i like to think that both chara and frisk were intentionally searching for the underworld. maybe they had a shitty life and ran away from home. but chara...chara was abused so bad to the point of hating all of humanity... chara would like to inflict pain on others, making THEM feeling the pain that they felt while frisk would rather be kind to others (pacifist playthrough), not wanting others to feel the pain that they've felt. i really think that chara wasn't entirely bad at first...what could've driven them to despise humanity?-- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Felix Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I love this game and want to beat it to see the end of the story, but at the same time I don't want it to end. I'm at The Core. How much longer is the game, and will I ever see Toriel and Papyrus again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dead account Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Man, I wish the internet wasn't so completely obsessed with Undertale. I had to watch runs of the game on youtube in an attempt to get some enjoyment out of it before everything got spoiled. I wish I could've experienced everything for myself.
