  • I completely forgot to include an important scene from the route in this video, so I have uploaded a new version. The scene is at 2:08. I have also included an extra line of dialogue with the King near the end of the video. Thanks so much to everyone who pointed it out!
    I put together a guide for how to complete the secret genocide/Weird Route in Deltarune Chapter 2. People also refer to it as the Snowgrave route. There are some very specific steps that must be followed in order to complete the run. Huge thank you for everyone who contributed to the Google Doc below containing the initial findings and a guide to triggering the ending.
    This video contains all of the necessary steps to complete the run, as well as anything else that I found interesting during the run. There are definitely a few small things that this video does not include, but the Google Doc has a complete summary of all findings. Please take a look.

    The pure genius of this is this entire corruption arc you do to Noelle is a loop hole against the “Your choices don’t matter”
    It wasn’t your choice to kill all those monsters, you just asked Noelle to use her ability like instructed and her ability just so h a p p e n e d to kill all those monsters and she just so h a p p e n e d to get traumatized by it. It just so h a p p e n e d that Berdly just.... didn’t wake up. ;)

Second chapter you can be nice and have the darkners form a Megatron robot or not. And you may also kill berdly and traumatize noelle or you can have berdly become better person and norlle more assertive. Our choices do matter even if the ending doesn't change

      and the "whisper" part is hell'a scary like, noelle say that she hear a voice that was not from kris, but something else, and during the route frequently you say "prooced" instead of what kris usually express (emotions like fear or feeling not right) and that ring that you give to her specifically list "trance" like an ability, so is possible that that is why you only "whisper" because that was enougth to Force noelle to use her power in the spamton

      The ring making Noelle gain the Trance ability is also probably why she failed to recognize Berdly, then told him to run away, because she knew she'd be forced to freeze him.
      On a similar note, since you're the one in charge of everything, it could be that Noelle didn't remember buying the ring or solving the puzzle because you made the game jumpcut to the action's completion...

As painful as it will be, I can't WAIT to see just how dark Toby Fox decides to go with this, considering this is only chapter 2 of 7, and we've already committed "real life" murder.

      this though? chara already tainted you. now they are gonna taint your friends. god..imagine what an evil ralsei would be like. an evil lancer.

      What if, since Noelle's technically the one to have killed, and her LV would presumably go up.

Whenever they talk about determination as a feeling it's lowercase but whenever they referenced it as a sort of power it's uppercase.

      but it's implied Susie came in and interrupted Kris.
      During this entire run, the dialogue hinges on a line of light and dark as the world STRUGGLES to fix its tone, but it can't. Kris made sure of that.

    Actually your half to correct.
    The Snowgrave spell actually unlocks in this Berdly fight but it would cost 200% of TP which is Impossible cause it can only go to 100%
    The Thorn ring makes it so it reduces the coat of ice type spells. Reducing Iceshock to 8% and Snowgrave to 100%
    It's also worth noting that during the fight even when it's your turn Noelle will rapidly lose HP the minimum it can go down is 55 HP.
    Still this route is more unnerving then the Genocide route... Because your making someone think turning people into icecubes is ok...

    I love how part of the twist involving Noelle's character is that, for whatever reason (I can only assume her mother's pressure), she's going against her specialties if you choose to not corrupt her. At first glance she's like an FF white mage style healer, only to realize that her heal costs a ridiculous amount of TP compared to Ralsei's. Meanwhile, her damaging spell is so low cost. I can't say too much without more context from future chapters obviously, but it really feels like the game's trying to tell you that she's a natural at killing with the slightest push - by the time she's fully corrupted, she's EASILY the strongest character in the party, and if her damage numbers are anything to go off of with her magic by the end, one of the strongest characters - if not the strongest character - we've seen in Deltarune just in general.
    In FF terms, she's a black mage trying to be a white mage, and could be a deeper indication that maybe it's some kind of symbolism of how her mother's overbearing personality is holding back her confidence and thus also her potential. Which could also be why, to some extent, Noelle welcomed Kris' pushing to let loose because she finally felt she didn't need to hold herself back. Even if she's been permanently traumatized by it, part of the conflict comes from the idea that she also probably loved the power she felt when she didn't need to worry.
    Just my two cents.

    I've always been curious about why Kris rips out his soul. Not so much the ripping out, but why he puts it back Everytime. Does he gain some kind of power?
    At the end when he slashes the tires to toriel's car, I've been trying to understand why. From the hand washing scene, it's shown that Kris can remove his soul at any time, as long as he can contain it from coming back to him. Ex. The bathroom cabinet. Showing he has enough control over his body with the soul in him to take it out. So many questions... And so much time until we get answers...

    This reminded me of when Chara says that the seak of more power made you, the player, kill everyone in Undertale. While in Deltarune, is Kris who slowly corrupts Noelle, making her think that what she is doing is okay because she is "getting stronger". Also, as she thinks (or thought) it is (or was) a dream, she didn't feel that guilty. Exactly as the way you thought "it's just a game, i'm not hurting anyone, i'm not doing something bad... right?"

    I just realized the parallels between this and the genocide route. I’ll be using the Dusttale AU as reference, so it might not hold water, but hear me out! In Undertale, the Genocide route was (basically) equally as likely as the Neutral and Pacifist routes. You could go through the whole game doing a Pacifist or Genocide routes and you could do one as much as the other. But in Deltarune, the worst you can do in Ch 1 is a Jerk Pacifist, where you beat up everything, but never kill. But in Ch 2, you can do a Genocide route, but it requires a lot of know how in order to do it. You have to do a lot of arbitrary steps in order to get it right and it’s very easy to just stop doing it or to get it wrong. I think this plays to Undertale/Deltarune fan’s curiosity. The fandom is so hungry for everything relating to Undertale/Deltarune that they’ll do anything for more. They took Gaster, who in-game is extremely obscure, and made him one of the biggest characters in the fandom. There are dozen upon dozen of AUs, ranging from complete overhauls to very minor tweaks in their changes. They’ll take anything as long as it’s new. The Dusttale AU plays on this, where the story is that after hundreds of Genocides, Sans has enough and breaks, kill everyone to get stronger. A character in that AU questions whether or not the player did this just to find something new, in which he succeeded. Ch 2 plays on this feeling of want for something new. It give the player something new, in exchange of doing something so horrible to one of its characters, that some fans consider what happens in the SnowGrave route to be worse than what happens in Undertale Genocide. If anyone in the shoes of Kris did what happens in this route, they would be considered some of the worst scum of society.
    But the fans did it anyway, why?
    Because it was new.

      Jesus those last two lines gave me shivers-
      We the players are so cruel, we might not be starting some of the drama but we sure as hell aren’t helping
      Kris literally has to rip out their soul just so they can control their own body and even then they struggle to move, making jerky, short, and slow steps.
      We sit and watch in suspense as a poor kid is forcing their body to do what THEY want instead of what WE want
      the damage sound is heard when Kris is doing this so it’s clear that they’re physically hurting themselves just to be able to actually control their body
      That and we can see their reaction to the pain, forcing their hand into their chest and ripping out what is essentially an organ with their eyes wide and hunched over.
      I remember immediately going to the cage at the start of chapter 2 and interacting with it and the line shook me:
      “A birdcage, when it’s closed there’s no escape”
      And everyone are massive hypocrites! We say that what we’re doing to Kris/Frisk or whoever is awful BUT WE KEEP DOING IT! I dislike what we’re doing to Kris but I know I’m probably going to play the next chapters and probably even repeat them!

    Much like the Undertale Genocide route, the process of getting this playthrough is incredibly specific and easy to miss... Yet it explores a lot of things one would never encounter on a Pacifist run, or even just a neutral run where you kill but don't follow the exact rules.
    Edit: Watching this makes me feel deeply uncomfortable. Like, moreso than the Genocide Route in Undertale, if that makes any sense. What Kris (through the player's actions) does to Noelle, a sweet girl who can't bring herself to say no to what Kris asks her, is legit sickening.
    Edit2: There's also a lot less pomp and circumstance when it comes to the revelation of "the Roaring". It almost feels likes like dialogue that needs to be there in order for things to make sense when the full game is released, but also feels like Toby knows people are only going to try this route after already doing a Pacifist run, so they might as well bog you down with all that... or maybe the "Grandness of adventuring in the Dark World" isn't really necessary in this run, since it feels like anyone trying a Genocide/Snowgrave run is just trying to get through the game more quickly... in a way, it feels similar to the message of Undertale's Genocide run, grinding up LV to speed through the rest of the game, like missing the forest for the trees, you know?

    • @larpagun
      @larpagun 2 года назад +2

      I kinda got the opposite impression about the dialogue with Queen. Seeing this, it feels like there's no real reason for Ralsie to wait until after the fight to tell Queen why making more dark fountains is a bad idea. I get that there needs to be a "final battle" for each chapter, but it seems a lot more fitting for Ralsie to just end it before it begins.
