What's the exact trigger for the True Pacifist ending corruption? I hit Alt-Enter to unfullscreen instead of F4 so I accidentally answered "No" to Chara at the end of my Genocide run, but I closed the window before they could finish speaking and kill me; I also was able to start up the game normally afterwards and load up from my save before Sans.

It could've been a bug; I've read that during the conversation you can't close the game without using the Task Manager, but the close button worked for me. Then again, I found that on the Undertale wiki, so who knows how accurate that tidbit is.

LibbyM posted:I've just started playing this. I know sparing bosses is obviously a plot affecting thing, and from the first little section in the snowy forest I know that the unique enemies (like the married dogs) showed up again at the Grill later. I was curious if anything changes at all from killing the random encounter enemies that you see several of the same enemy with? (Other than going or the pure pacifist or whatever it's called ending) Killing the Snowdrake will spur a later boss to mention something along the lines of you having indiscriminately killed a teenage comedian.

Top Hats Monthly posted:So here is a question (Genocide) The differentiation could be symbolic of Mettaton being a pushover boss fight unlike the other two; you could even say that his opaque eye makes him half-blind and thus defenseless to your attacks whereas Undyne and Sans have heightened awareness to your attacks and are able to block/dodge them accordingly. Left is also "sinister", so it's also possible Mettaton's eye quirk being on the right indicates not having the heart to stop you... although technically you're the sinister one and Undyne's and Sans' intentions to defeat you are good, so that idea doesn't hold as much water as the other one.

It does feel good; feels like I beat Chara at his own game by saying DO NOT and then closing the program before he got a chance to stab me. Part of the reason why I went Neutral -> Genocide -> Pacifist was because I originally thought a Pacifist run would be the hardest to complete. I was hilariously wrong, but it was a good choice considering it made the Pacifist run super easy, especially since the Temmie Armor was only 750 G from all of the bad times I had.

Man, if Sans died before Papyrus, Papyrus would never even figure out what happened thanks to Sans refusing to straight-up tell his brother about the concept of death.

Fates End posted:The only thing it changes is what you see after the credits in the True Pacifist run. Even then, it's entirely possible to wuss out at the last moment to avoid this. Keep the task manager open during the final sequence, and when you're given a choice in what is definitely the very end of the run, end Undertale's process. You can even end the process if you make the choice by accident, but that's dicey. If the game closes on its own from your choice, it's too late for you to get a true happy ending.

I pretty much didn't feel any regret or guilt killing any of the bosses in the Genocide run, but now I don't know if I could cut down Papyrus again. I also arguably was more of a monster in my Neutral run since I decided the Tsunderplane is an abomination and must be destroyed on sight.

MakeWarHarmlesser posted:So I learned something new about this game tonight (Genocie spoilers): Stick it out; Sans is a super-fun fight that will probably constitute 75% of the time you spend playing the Genocide run. Also, that's really neat and a subtle way to reduce the control of the player in that run.

I know half my posts in the thread have advocated the Neutral -> Aborted Genocide -> True Pacifist route, but Zephyrine might actually benefit from following such a path considering Genocide forces you to get good at dodging. The downside is that some of the plot twists of the Geno path are confusing/not as effective without finishing a True Pacifist run first.

I can totally relate to not remembering the name of Mettaton's EX form since it took a while to commit that one to memory. I also agree in that the soundtrack's main issue is how repetitive its usage of motifs is, although I don't mind it too much considering how creatively they get worked into tracks to the point where some motifs aren't 100% apparent at first, like Your Best Friend being featured in Hopes and Dreams. Compare Undertale's usage of motifs to Mother 3's, where uncreative Pig Army variations make up half of the 200-something tracks.

The very beginning is based off/a continuation of Bergentruckung, and even that leads into a Heartache-esque segment before going into Heartache's main melody. Took me a while to figure out the Castlevania-esque part is Determination, too, and I have musical training. I get the chills just thinking about the part of the song that's mainly based around Heartache. Leroy Dennui fucked around with this message at 15:45 on Jan 21, 2016 |

Farg posted:what's exact pitch Exact pitch, perfect pitch, absolute pitch, etc. is the concept of being able to identify the pitch of a note/chord/melody through hearing it without any accompaniment. People without this capability need a reference to identify pitches - unless they're tone deaf, in which case pitch recognition is impossible. Pitch recognition is more of an inborn trait than anything; Leroy Dennui fucked around with this message at 22:15 on Jan 21, 2016 |

Your Dunkle Sans posted:Isn't Toby Fox a composer first and a game designer second? That would probably explain how intricate the tracks are for the game are, even for unpolished first runs. In terms of dedication to his craft, he's a composer first and game designer second; his experiments in game design predate his composition work in Homestuck work et al. by a few years back when he made EarthBound ROM hacks. Megalovania is significant because it was the first ROM hack track he composed that he was pleased with. He used to nearly exclusively work in C Minor in the early Homestuck days; about maybe 3 tracks of the Undertale soundtrack are in that key.

Don't know about the patch, but for whatever reason the game's audio files for Undertale are way faster (and thus higher pitched) than in-game or on the soundtrack.

Dominic White posted:Undertale isn't feeling too well today. I love Flowey's Opera Beam. Something I thought of today: the change in pitch between the in-game/OST version of Undertale and the sound files the song is divided into is possibly a way of urging people who extracted the files without purchasing the OST to plunk down some cash on the album.

Endogeny is both incredibly unsettling and hilarious. That fight's audio is spread across three files, two of which are labeled "woofenstein". It's meant to be a take on Frankenstein, but it just makes me think of Wolfenstein. Now I want to see a take on Wolfenstein where you play as the Greater Dog and the music is that one Spear of Destiny track labeled "Evil Incarnate", but the marching sound is replaced by rhythmic panting and the order of recovery in the health powerups is reversed.
