So, to all the Undertale fans out there... What way should I play the game for my first playthrough? I know there's many different ways to play the game, but for my first time playing it, what gives me the best enjoyment? :3 I watched an LP of the demo that showed all the ways it could be played.

Pacifist. Unless you are a heartless monster

Maybe I am, Adam. Maybe I am...

Oh then in that case go genocide run. Good luck with Sans.

I'd generally say do genocide first because you wont be able to after true pacifist q-q (but also dont finish the run because that leaves a shitty aftertaste (jk something worse happens that even a true reset wont fix so just dont finish the run XD))

No, you can. After you reset after a pacifist run, you have to do a "true reset", which resets even the stuff that the game remembers between playthroughs.
Also, the genocide run is harder.

i know you CAN still do it what im saying is you will never want to o-o ever XD
and yeah Genocide's last boss is a biiiiiiii-

Na, even on the "true reset" it does not take that away

You cannot outrun your sins....

unless you... you know... go in and delete the file manually but other than that.
This is much harder on steam however unless you have the steam cloud turned off before you beat it.

Nuh uh, you can't wash the blood off your mental hands. In this game, it always wins.

I generally do a No Mercy run. It's like a Genocide run, only you don't go out of your way to kill everything. You just never use the mercy button.

Sans was fun. Took me a little more than most pro gamers, about 30-35 attempts, but I definitely enjoyed the fight. Ended up doing Pacifist first, but I was also playing 'with' a friend, watching her stream her own attempts, and she went a more general neutral route. :)

I wouldn't do the Genocide run at all to be honest... It permanently ruins your save file lol. The game is literally designed to punish you. Unless you do it on like a portable hard drive or something > >.

You'll never truly understand the game/story if you don't do the genocide run.

Sure you will. And if you need to you can just watch a playthrough. Toby made the game so you wouldn't HAVE to do the genocide run. That's why he punishes you so badly when you do it. All the Genocide run really shows honestly is the Chara is a sociopathic monster uh the literal definition > > ... not monster like..."monster" whatever lol. And we already know this by the end of the true ending. Just gotta pay attention to the clues especially inside the true lab.

Chara is more than just a child.
Chara is essentially an undying deity, a representation of the void after death, and the transition to death itself and the misanthropy that exists in everyone.

Chara is basically Sithis (the 'deity' that the Dark Brotherhood from Elder Scrolls follow)

I personally believe that before landing in the underworld Chara was a normal child, maybe with a disposition towards sociopathic tendencies (lack of emotion, lack of attachment, lack of compassion), but through the course of being in the underworld Chara transitioned from Chara the child to Chara the being/the concept.

Yea, all the clues found in the true ending point out the fact that he is an emotionless guy with dark intentions from the very start. But he's basically hanging on as an angry spirit trying to possess Frisk's body because he still wants to genocide humanity and now monsters because he feels they betrayed him when Asriel stopped him from slaughtering the villagers. I got all this from the true ending haha. I already knew all this stuff about Chara before I even looked at the Genocide playthrough.

Neutral. First run definitely.
You won't want to go back after the pacifist run.

Define neutral with minimal spoilers? :3

Is that just 'kill some stuff and save some other stuff just do whatever' then? I dare not research this game for spoilers, but I know there's 'kill everything till you can kill no more', 'never kill a single thing or-maybe-even-attack-things', and then.... beyond that I don't know. :P

as long as you don't kill everything in sight you're good. of course you can't get the best ending on the first run. to save you time........just don't kill anything on your first run, then just reload and you can get the best ending.

You can get the best ending on your first run.

And neutral is not going out of your way to do all the stuff for the "True Ending" or murdering everyone.

You can't access the Lab on your first run. Fastest possible true ending is neutral pacifist followed by reloading, backtracking and finishing the remaining tasks before completing the game.

It's odd, BUT if you beat the game, first time, then reload your last save, you can then get the true ending.

So, technically, yes, you can get it on your first run.

But not your first ending. You don't have to reset, but you do have to see the neutral ending.

buuuuut you cant o-o cause the sidequest for alphys requires a key item that undyne will only give you after finishing the game

you can just leave everything alive true pacifist requires a side quest that can only be done after a neutral run o-o

If it means I can go back and kill Alphys..... totally worth it. First run nearly done with is pacifist.

Definitely neutral/pacifist. Or whatever.
Cause genocide route leaves a lot of story out, and a good deal of what they DO talk to you about would make no sense otherwise. A lot of the NPC's are missing and the towns are deserted, so you miss out on bits of story based on different areas.

Play it however you feel right. Don't let other people tell you how to do it. If you want to kill someone kill someone. If you don't want to kill anyone, don't kill anyone. The beauty of undertale is that the creator has programmed dozens to hundreds of different outs and little bits and pieces that all change in a butterfly effect from start to finish, so even if you do a strange "Neutral" run of the game, you'll see a different finale than you would if you played it in MOSTLY the same way... with a little bit of differences.

In my opinion using the [ACT] menu is where most of the games fun is, but it's absolutely up to you. Unless you're aiming to spare everyone or kill everyone, most of the game will be unchanged.

I would say play it however you want. Telling you how to play it taints your experience. The whole game is about doing what you feel like. I would say not to kill Papyrus and Undyne. They have funny interactions.

Just bee the good guy thats all its really really funny being the good guy

Under Tale certainly is gaining popularity, and eyes are on Toriel, the proudly named mother goat. Or should we say eye on what she's got (or to a fan, what she'll be 'gaining' *wink wink*

Good to hear you have caught the bug too. :D

Soon, my friend, my work load isn't allowing me to spoof new characters much now days. But soon.

I'll be waiting for Ms Toriel

No pressure!It is a pleasant thought though!

Goat Mom is really gorgeous.

Prepare for Oedipus complex in 3... 2...

Glad to be your friend. And thanks for being there for me too.

> Not having run into Toriel artwork before.

That is quite an accomplishment...

Could be worse. You could go to the movies with your mother (as an adult) and get both tickets charged as Couples.

The weird thing is I don't know whether to find that a compliment for how young my mother looks (my mother's family is a bunch of Sicilians with blood like wine) or to find that a remark of how old I am. Maybe they were saying I looked mature. :P

Whatever it meant, I'm laughing all the same.

Dat boner be high. XD

goat mom<3

Awesome pic bro, hehehe yea I'd flirt with her after calling her mama

I think you're talking bullshit because it is I who has the biggest boner.

you should do some more undertale fan art ♥♥♥

Wait. I keep hearing Undertale is an RPG where you can win by killing nothing.

And yet there's a genocide option?


I WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME.

you can play it like a standard RPG, go the pascifist route. or kill literally everything. each has it's own ending, but the pascifist one is the clear winner

Concur with dajinn, true pacifist route wins hands down, especially because genocide messes with all further games you play (unless you edit the file to no longer cause this).

I can't wait to play! I love Toriel already!

His Expression=Perfect XD

WHOA GEEZ, DO YOU KISS YOUR MOTHER WITH THAT MOU- ..Oh, right.

"Also he's got the biggest redwood boner for Toriel like you have no fucking idea dude."
Him and 80% of the fandom

You are an... "Interesting" child.

Toriel is totally a PAWG! Let me bend it over and bust it open!

id be hitting on her too

Toriel is a cutie :-3
would love to see you draw more of her

In his defense, she is really attractive.

I doubt anyone would dispute that fact

Toriel is <3 ;u; You can beat Undertale really fast if ya just decide to stay with her, right? c:

I think most furs play the game in pervert mode. :3

I guess it's a good thing I never called her "mother"..? ;3

Goodness this is cute!
It makes me happy every time I see more goatmom :D

Also he's got the biggest redwood boner for Toriel like you have no fucking idea dude.



The Undertale fandom, or the furry fandom?

In the words of the Honest Trailer voice:
"Mmmiiiiiiiilf..."

goatmom <3

I await the cream pie jokes ;)

Just gonna say this to the community as a whole: Please for the love of all that is holy, don't take it too far. Just don't. Not this time

Mmmm...

-So, how's that goin'...?

wat

My boner is redder for her

THose eyebrows though.

I'M AN OEDIPUS CAUSE I'M ED

<3 expression

#RelationshipGoals

I still think she's a mimiga :B
*conspiracy glasses; on*

Just by looking at this picture it fills your pants with DETERMINATION!

And yes, especially I called you mother <3

I can now fully appreciate this imagine as I only just beat it and doing a redo.

I usually get comments like this but in a dirtier context

I wish I could "Like" this comment.

Everyone apparently is an "interesting" child, so....

I don't blame you, I would take her down to the pillow hard all night long!

What is that hideous blue thing?

Idk, but it better step off of goatmom before something happens to it.

I'm with you, brother. Dragon or not, he is small enough to 50 yard punt, if he doesn't back off of goatmom.

I'll 50 yard punt all of you

*puts on his old football helmet* Doooo eeeet

Oedipus would be proud!

you say this like it's weird NOT to have the most sky high boner for toriel?

also "HEY BABY WANNA GET FRISKY?!"

Zaush, I,ove your art!

ah hahahaha XD

"I wasn't protecting you from them,
I was protecting them from YOU!"

Goat Mom is Best Mom

More pedophilia, you should be in jail before you hurt a child. Or probably you already did! Disgusting. People that supports you is the same as you, worthy nothing!

I think it was because he called you mother.
