@@questiontfname105 It’s meant to be something to make you go what the fuck, because Kris, could probably start talking crazy nonsense like that to himself, and creep everyone out, plus it’s also how i imagine Frisk, is during Genocide.
I hate it when people blame outside forces like Chara for your actions. You chose to manipulate Noelle. You chose to do the genocide. You are the greatest threat to the universe, as said by Flowey. You are the villain of the genocide and snowgrave route.
I feel like some people get so lost in the lore of deltarune and undertale that they forget that both those games are supposed to highlight a relationship between the player and the game they are playing. Chara, as they appear in the genocide run, doesn’t actually appear to be sadistic or anything, they just say that they themselves represent power, and the positive feeling a player gets whenever they level up. They are just the representation of the satisfaction a player feels whenever they level up in an rpg… it’s just that playing that way in undertale means killing all the characters. Chara is just like “ok we’re so strong we broke this world, onto the next.” But in this case, Noelle is basically The video game trope of a low lvl party member. Someone who joins at a lower level that you have to grind to a higher level by feeding them kills. It’s just that noelle is a person, so kris (but really the player) telling her to kill all these enemies is traumatic. Yes you can grind her to the point where she can one shot the boss, but the boss is… berdly…
Well Chara, is definitely a evil force, I mean they weren’t exactly a good person even in life since they ruined Asriel’s, life you can’t deny that, and wanted to basically kill humanity i get where’s there coming from a lot of days, but Jesus their not a Angel, and clearly can be a kind of evil spirit, but yes they are definitely manipulated as well in terms of Undertale, but since it’s a different universe I don’t care Chara, is a evil bastard because we didn’t even kill anyone in Chapter 1, and Kris, still goes evil at the end.
berdly completely dropping the "brave knight saving the damsel" act once he realized his friend was in some actual danger gave me chills the first time i saw it. poor guy.
@@tadstrange1465 I heard a theory that since Berdly’s mind is encased in Ice in the Dark World. It was unable to escape, and when the fountain gets sealed and the dark world destroyed… well. He’s essentially brain dead.
Interesting detail: if you equip Noelle's watch while doing snowgrave in the cyber world, at the hospital cutscene Noelle will ask you why are you wearing her watch if it was all a dream.
7:20 That comment about how a person could fit in the closet... Add that to how you can't reenter this room after you leave... ...Why do I have a sneaking suspicion that Berdly's body is gonna be shoved into the closet and you won't be able to open that door in Chapter 3...?
@@Martinxo51 I doubt it, because he isn't really _dead_ . I imagine it's more of a permanent sleep than death. So there'll essentially be a lifeless 'corpse' inside which is honestly *even more unnerving*
Pretty interesting how in the pacifist route, most people REALLY hated Berdly and joked about wanting him dead but in the snowgrave/genocide route when you actually murder him, it hurts. Either way, going to have respect the guy for bravely standing his ground until the end against a powerful and cruel manipulator to save his friend.
Berdly clearly has self-worth issues with his backstory and facade, but time and time again some hints of his true caring self has been sprinkled in the dialogue, so yeah. That hurts. People also tend to forget that they are just KIDS.
I didn't catch that in my playthrough since the ring of thorns drains her health. But what I did see: If Kris falls, Berdley tries to tell Noelle that she can escape now but she says that she can still hear your voice issuing commands.
Notice that while he’s saying the same sort of stuff like he does in the normal route, but his wording, and his attitude are completely different, and you can even see it in his expressions.
Not just his expressions. He was talking a lot about how he wanted to protect Noelle in pacifist, but she got hit by attacks constantly. In this fight, he ONLY targets Kris.
“Watch what happens when I cast a spell I don’t know!” idk if it’s just me but that line feels haunting for some reason, like I can feel how desperate Noelle is in the moment to do what Kris says :(
@@frakez6155 Noelle still believes that the player is Kris though, even if she noticed the change in voice and personality she’s still under the impression that what we say as the player is just Kris
@@saltysnowboi if you visit noelle in the hospital in a snowgrave route there’s some dialogue which literally just confirms that noelle knows something be up with kris
Why hasn’t anybody commented on the fact that normally Berdly’s sprite in battle had a little smirk or smile. But on snow grave when fighting noelle, his cocky smile is gone and so is his happy expression
He acts completely normal during the cutscene before the fight, and that somehow impresses me. Like "holy shit Berdly's actually capable of becoming serious when he knows it's about to go down"
I feel like it’s possibly implied because it says you put all the junk away in the room and if you try to go back in it says that you have no reason to go back in there.
I think it's cool to see (no pun intended) how Berdly's demeanor changes when he knows he faces serious danger and wants to save a friend. That annoying facade broke down instantly which shows that he does care.
Birdly is underrated. He will become a pretty good Allie in the future he can be nice to Kris and just needs unwakeing similar to Susie. He treats Kris ok when you give him the present.
Notice how when Noelle was playing the game with her dad, she used Iceshock despite the enemy typing out of habit. Also, she is very insistent of taking control, possibly because she was being taken control of in the Dark World. She wants to feel a sense of control again in any way possible.
i hate seeing noelle's hp slowly going down because that ring is physically killing her and she doesnt even notice also props to berdly for trying to save his friend and standing his ground
It isn't killing her. The flavor text says the ring uses pain so the wearer can become stronger... something along those lines. Noelle's HP stops dropping around 55,and because Berdley only attacks Kris, it stays that way Taken from numerous other comments: 55 in roman numerals is LV, which alludes to undertale's "LOVE", or "Level Of ViolEnce" if you will I've only ever played Deltarune tho
@@lyrics_m_sic I bet it was deliberate. Toby did say the two games have different rules for their universes, but it's obvious some things remain the same.
Well, in pacifist he knows you wouldn't hurt Noelle since well, if you're nice to her he's ok with that. But he never forgives anyone who hurts Noelle in any way since she is berdly's only true friend, and he wanted to give Noelle the best ending he could give her. But then, well. *T h e p l a y e r c a m e a l o n g .*
4:34 something really interesting about this is that the previous ACTs were kris calling for help but this one says that you, the player, were calling for noelle
You're right. Seems like the game is making a point about player agency vs the character's agency, and the fact that the game calls YOU out specifically for these horrible, manipulative actions is haunting. poor noelle... her mom is strict and cold, her dad is dying, her friend is seemingly possessed and she doesn't have the courage to stand up to them... to US, the player... so fucked up. This is why I never do genocide runs... i feel too guilty! I just want them to have fun, help their friends, and save the world lol
@@alisonfool Toby Fox probs saw all the people think the genocide route was charas fault and is doubling down to make sure everyone knows that its the players fault for these routes
@@alisonfool It gets worse when you remember Noelle's implied backstory, as it means we forced to kill one of her closest friends by freezing him to death, which is apparently similar to how her sister lost her life. _Absolute yikes._
The battle music in the Berdly fight sounds so sinister. it gives you this feeling of impending doom, Noelle is way to strong at this point and you know it won't end well for him. Then it just goes completely silent afterwards.
The game is literally telling us that we, the player, *the one controlling Kris through the soul,* are the real villian. We are the ones doing all this. We are making decisions against Kris's will and forcing him to do and say things he doesn't want to. And that's why he disconnects our control over him by ripping the soul out so that you can't stop him from making his own decisions. But he can't throw the soul away as he can't live without it.
If Kris knows how dangerous we players are, why don't they try to warn others that there's something owning them and controlling them? Why don't they seek help to find a way out of our control? If they warned the other characters, it could have prevented us from manipulating Noelle, it could have saved the other characters. Why doesn't Kris do anything like that to try and stop us?
Yeah, but why without any involvement does Kris, get taken control of, when it happens no matter how good, and on your behavior you were during the first chapter.
im just curious who the equivalent of sans is gonna be, you know, the super hard final boss that’s the end of this game’s genocide route? i bet it will be susie
I’ve always been in the “spare everyone” camp, and Berdley grew on me fairly quick...had no idea it was possible to kill him but it’s nice to see further confirmation that he actually does care about his friend.
The fact Berdly knew as soon as You said "prpceed" He knew something was up (also in the Snowgrave route His attacks are more powerful) Edit: I refuse to correct Proceed :p)))
Ahhhh there’s that desperate monster brief monster power up it’s just a matter of time until we see something much like Undyne The Undying, maybe she might even show up if we ever actually battle Undyne, in the game who knows it could happen.
@@saiyanfang1047 That’s just a fannon idea though, because personally i think it’s because she was so determined to stop you in that moment especially after how many monsters you killed in the underground at the time, so she awakens into her Undying, form, because i feel like she didn’t understand what was happening, but knew she had to awaken into her power deep down, because if she was injected with determination i think she would have already been in the form, or would have said “Now get a taste of my own determination you damn monster no whatever you are.” Isn’t of what she said so nah that isn’t cannon, or official, it is a cool idea though, but it’s pretty popular.
What gets me is how Noelle's eyes roll back into her head and she basically loses control of herself when she casts Snowgrave, which is appropriate since you've basically mentally broken her to your will at this point. She's just an RPG tool to do damage.
Given that Snowgrave does roughly between 1800-2300 damage, here is a list of Darkners who could survive snowgrave if they were at full health when the spell was cast: - King (2800 health) - Jevil (3500 health) - Giga Queen (4500 health, only 1510 regularly) - Spamton NEO (4809 health, Noelle's attack only succeeds at the end of the snowgrave route because Kris already weakened Spamton to ~6-10% of his HP) - Lancer (2400 health during the Susie fight) - Berdly in his cart (1985 health in his cart, 900 without it, as seen in the battle in the video) - Tasque Manager (1367), K Round (1500), Werewerewire (1783), Mauswheel (1753), and Clover (1500) would all come close to survival, but fall just short
berdly's HP is 900 900 x 3 is 2700, close enough to 2300 the snowgrave description is simply "Fatal" so i think it deals three times the amount of health a person has
Even tough this comment is pretty old, I’d like to point out that Noelle didn’t use Snowgrave on Spamton NEO, as the attack sound effect is from Iceshock. Maybe it is a mistake, but considering that they changed the blue of Kris to yellow from Noelle on that same scene but not the sound effect, I believe it was intentional. Also, we should consider that Spamton had elevated his defense with NEO to a point that Kris could only do 1 damage to him, so I believe that after killing Berdly, Noelle and Snowgrave grew much stronger.
makes me think how just everything lined up perfectly for someone to die for real with Snowgrave, if it had been any other major character (mostly toe ones you can fight tho) they might have survived as per their health
Love the subtle details in this fight compared to the normal route. In this fight, berdly’s battle sprite has a serious look on it instead of his usual smirk. When he winds up for his attacks his expression is also more angry instead of smug. He also, from what ive seen, exclusively targets kris unlike the pacifist version. Berdly’s usual facade is gone here and hes clearly very serious about protecting noelle from kris when he truly believes shes in danger. Poor birdly.
You know what I like most about this? Everything about it feels wrong. Snowgrave feels like the game not knowing how to account for your actions. It feels like everything is falling apart. And it comes to a head in the battle with Berdly. The music, usually enthusiastic and grooving, is low and sinister. The sound effect of casting Snowgrave is shrill and ear-piercing. The ray of ice encasing Berdly is just this NOISE that feels like warped scraping metal. Sound design is a big part of video games and Toby Fox has nailed it through and through.
This route genuinely feels as if the game itself doesn't want you to play it. So incredibly specific, ridiculously precise, and at every possible opportunity the game gives you the chance to just stop, think about what you're doing, and get back on the right path.
To think you didn't just kill someone here, but you mentally broke another person while you were at it, this shit is already far darker than an UT genocide route. *EDIT: we're all entitled to our own opinions, just don't get hostile about it okay replies?*
@@SabirTheHuman Glad to see someone understand it, I'd happily laugh or something but to be honest I was fucking rattled by this scene when I first saw it this evening and I still feel like total scum for killing a fictional character and mentally destroying another. Haven't felt this way over a videogame cutscene since Pokemon black and white 2 and Xenoblade 2.
I might he stating the obvious, but it’s so creepy that Iceshock exists in the video game Noelle plays. She knows damn well what it does when you command her to cast it.
@@tnynfox1669 In undertale, it mentions a coma-like state called 'fallen down'. Monsters are only in this state for a period of time before they turn to dust. So, Berdly is officially dead unless ralsei unfreezes him with heat magic (which goats usually have) or if someone somehow breaks berdly out.
The music, her eyes, everything creeped me out, but the sad thing is that kris manipulated a poor innocent girl who has NO idea what’s happening to kill her group partner in like, almost everything. edit: bro can y’all stfu it’s literally just a minor mistake
1:03, if you look at Berdly's expression during this attack animation, you see that in both parts of the animation, his expression is completely different: When he's normally charging up his attack, his eyes just shrink and nothing else, but in Snowgrave, he gives a nasty glare towards Kris's direction. Finally, when he's actually attacking and holding the spear, his eyebrows are straight, showing that he's legitimately furious and no longer being arrogant. Berdly was no longer joking around, and was fully prepared to outright kill Kris if it meant saving Noelle.
I'm gonna love to see how this plays out. With Kris taking a life in pacifist, and Noelle taking many in 'genocide' it'll be fun to see what direction he goes. One annoying thing though is that it'll take forever to do every run now that there's multiple parts
Berdly is that one guy who's a complete jerk to his friends and has NO idea how to interact, but also has a strong sense of right and wrong. RIP Berdly
I know right? I get the distinct feeling we are literally turning Noelle into Monika, where she's going to be obsessed with the player, doing whatever she thinks we want, with the difference being that in this case, the player essentially groomed her and paved the path for her to be that way. Honestly it's so interesting.
Good thing Susie entered & interrupted Kris' answer (or the Player's, since she always comments how the voice feels terrifying and stays in her head, even when Kris is down or gone), so that she won't commit suicide so early, lolz...
I might be imagining it but when you enter battle in pacifist route each battle has Noel kinda having a mini freak out with each encounter.... But here and in a lot of other battles I've seen in genocide, it looks more like she's getting literally dragged into each battle by the scruff of her neck, I might just be imagining it but I'd love for someone to confirm
I know her demeanor changes in many ways as you progress through snowgrave. For example, if you act on one of the virus boys, she normally falls over in her nurse outfit, but she doesn’t while in snowgrave.
After equipping the thorn ring,(or maybe the freeze ring), Noelle gets a new set of battle sprite animations. Especially the entry into battle sprite, which was her freaking out, now changed to her resisting entering the battle in some way, to show how strong and fearless you have made her.
i know most people really don’t like berdly, but since i see a lot of myself in him, watching this made me feel so weird. especially since lots of other players in the pacifist route joke about wishing they could kill him.
I thought he was annoying at first, but yeah he also really grew on me and I also saw myself in him. He is really relatable and I am so glad I didnt do the snowgrave route. It would have sucked if he died like he did here-
Love how berdly just wants to help Noelle since she never got credit that berdly got, berdly wanted to share the credit and look how the fandom treats my boy
Even if Berdly is quite kinda bad with Kris and friends he was not that sort of a bad guy at all so I kinda feel bad for him after Noelle snow grave him to death
Berdly was an ass but he was never irredeemable. He was just a dumb kid with a big ego. But when the cards are down, his heart is right where it should be. That's what makes him a great character in spite of his flaws.
Actually, I theorise that Berdly and Kris were good friends, because they both seem to know alot about 'Super Smashing Fighters' we know Kris is good at games because Susie mentions it before they play the arcade game. Still though, he didn't deserve any of that. He said that he had to act smart to feel superiority. (most likely to boost his self-esteem) and the poor kid died to the hands of the player.
Something I find interesting is how people automatically assume Kris is, indeed, a self-insert character whose personality is shaped around the player's. But then when they do the snowgrave route, this completely changes to "Kris is [their own character and is] evil." Perhaps this is a case of denialism: them denying fact because they simply do not want to hold themselves accountable for their actions. Which... says a lot about people, doesn't it? I guess Deltarune really is a 'survery program'
I think the people who dislike berdly don't understand his character. you have to remember, they're all kids. he obviously has low self esteem and he sees all these people as much more intelligent than himself. he tries to make himself appear smarter so he won't feel so stupid, but in the game you keep showing him time and time again that you're better than him. it weighs on him. everyone sees him as annoying, when he's just a kid trying to be better, and he keeps getting knocked down. i really love him as a character
Can everyone just *chill* with the *ice* jokes? Seriously it's very *cold* of people to make jokes after someone who wanted to help Noelle litteraly fucking died
This should be called the ⑨ route, because you effectively freeze everything in your path, just like the strongest. (if you actually get this without me explaining it i love you)
noooo, berdly, he may act like a snarky asshole alot of the time but thats only because he craves admiration, he feels dumb and usless, so he seeks the possative reanforcment he wants from people like noelle, but deep down he still cares for his friends, he doesnt want anyone to die, this is even shown at the end of a normal run when berdly says we could try studying with susie, atempting to put aside his diferences, not from believing he fell for susie, but because he accepted the fact that making mistakes is fine, he was furious at the thought of kris hurting noelle, he even got powered up and ONLY hurts kris unless hes already down, and before he hurts noelle he tries to convince her while kris is out of it before noelle states she can still hear kris, overall berdly bravley tried to save his friend and died for his bravery, may he rest in peace
on the dark world, take her watch away from her inventory and put it in yours, at the hospital, instead of talking about your voice as being terrifying she will say "if it was all just a bad dream... then why are you wearing my watch? when did you get this?"
If we look at all the classmate they are a total of nine. If we exclude Kris, Susie, Noelle and Berdly (who dies) we are left with five people. There are 5 remaining chapters. Good luck killing Temmie without crying all your tears.
Everyone feels bad for Berdly, but when I got spoilers for Snowgrave, I wasn’t even mad. I was overjoyed ‘cause I learned I got to kill the fried chicken ass bastard
Personally I’m going to wait until all of Deltarune, is out until i go full Genocide, I’ll start a whole new run, and just murder everyone who gets in my way focus on getting armor, and weapons not just armor, and healing items, and just see where it ends up, I can’t wait to see, and only myself i won’t spoil anymore, i just did to figure out about Genocide, but since it’s possible now, I’m excited to try it, but I think Deltarune, is getting really dark for a few chapters even without Genocide.
@@complexfrost7076 Hah well be that way, but i have to explore it, plus unlike Undertale, it won’t ruin my file since there’s multiple, but i did Genocide in Undertale, the only reason i canceled was so it didn’t ruin my file on Switch, but i killed Sans.
@@joshshrum2764 I wouldn’t put it past Toby Fox to have the actions from one save file ‘bleed’ into the other saves to be honest, the same way that Genocide corrupts future Pacifist runs in Undertale.
Berdly stopped the act when he thought noelle was in real danger that's how horrifying this is. Also spamton the insane salesman even knew how horrible kris was being
My favorite part of the snowgrave route story-wise has to be how alienated and unimportant Queen becomes. It helps demonstrate how, though it all may seem real, this is just a collection of fantasies from a couple teenagers, which is obviously reflected in Queen's cheesiness in the normal route. But when things get serious, such as when Berdly realizes that he's in actual danger, it's interesting to see him so serious as it's almost a sort of moment of "snap out of it, this is REAL danger." I think the absence of Queen's melody in Berdly's Snowgrave theme also reflects this, as she's really just a pretend obstacle for fun in the normal route, thus making her unimportant when compared to the actual danger of Kris's, or rather, our own, actions.
And there he goes, a bird in a desk, braindead, and is expected to die and rot after 8-21 days without consumption of vital needs, that is if someone hasn't enter the room...Well even if he was brought to a hospital, it is futile. Cold Corpse=Snow Grave.
I like that during the Spamton fight, it goes from "Kris called for help" to *"You* whispered Noelle's name". The Undertale fan base has pretty much always had an issue of blaming Chara for the Genocide route, but it was *your* choice to kill. Here, you take that role "Chara" took according to fans. The game makes it obvious that *you* did this. *YOU* made Noelle cast Snowgrave. This makes me think that the "Your choices don't matter" aspect wasn't directed at the player, it was directed at Kris. This can be shown with their calls for help not working, but *YOURS* does. Possibly, that "soul" is you. Kris is shown stabbing it out, wanting to get rid of it. You control it. There's no "Chara" to blame for the "murderous parasite" role. Unless you blame *yourself.*
But how long would it be before the doctors take him off life support? Doctors and his family would just think he was in a comatose or even brain dead state and eventually pull the plug. The only people who knew what really happened are Kris and Noelle. Kris is possessed by the player, or maybe the knight that awakens the darkness. They probably wouldn’t be able to help even if they wanted to. Noelle doesn’t know how to get back to the Dark World, and there might not even be a way to get back and unfreeze Berdly since the fountain was closed. Even then, would she be able to resist the “voice”? How long would it be until she became another thrall for the player, like Kris?
There's more. You need to take her watch and then say nothing at the end (choose "..."). Then the real terror kicks in, as she realizes it's was not a dream, because you have her watch.
"watch what happens when i cast a spell i don't know!" - Me button mashing in a fighting game and doing a massive super move i don't know the input for

Not to mention, he says "my friend Noelle" when previously he acted like he was into her

Not just his expressions. He was talking a lot about how he wanted to protect Noelle in pacifist, but she got hit by attacks constantly. In this fight, he ONLY targets Kris.
“Watch what happens when I cast a spell I don’t know!” idk if it’s just me but that line feels haunting for some reason, like I can feel how desperate Noelle is in the moment to do what Kris says :(

Notice how when Noelle was playing the game with her dad, she used Iceshock despite the enemy typing out of habit. Also, she is very insistent of taking control, possibly because she was being taken control of in the Dark World. She wants to feel a sense of control again in any way possible.

It isn't killing her. The flavor text says the ring uses pain so the wearer can become stronger... something along those lines. Noelle's HP stops dropping around 55,and because Berdley only attacks Kris, it stays that way
Taken from numerous other comments: 55 in roman numerals is LV, which alludes to undertale's "LOVE", or "Level Of ViolEnce" if you will

4:34 something really interesting about this is that the previous ACTs were kris calling for help but this one says that you, the player, were calling for noelle
You're right. Seems like the game is making a point about player agency vs the character's agency, and the fact that the game calls YOU out specifically for these horrible, manipulative actions is haunting. poor noelle... her mom is strict and cold, her dad is dying, her friend is seemingly possessed and she doesn't have the courage to stand up to them... to US, the player... so fucked up. This is why I never do genocide runs... i feel too guilty! I just want them to have fun, help their friends, and save the world lol

And the fact they didn’t CALL all they had to do is whisper and she came running like a obedient dog. It’s honestly pretty sickening
@@alisonfool It gets worse when you remember Noelle's implied backstory, as it means we forced to kill one of her closest friends by freezing him to death, which is apparently similar to how her sister lost her life.

@@thisisanickname231 YO WHAT?!?!
The battle music in the Berdly fight sounds so sinister. it gives you this feeling of impending doom, Noelle is way to strong at this point and you know it won't end well for him. Then it just goes completely silent afterwards.
It kind of reminds me of Susie fighting lancer in Chapter 1, except you the player have all the power to affect the outcome here.
Probably because the song is Berdly's heartbeat.
The song in the background of berdly's fight is just the drums of smart race
Okay that comment about how a large person could fit inside the closet was VERY concerning

Same comment appears in true pacifist run (Sources: I finished this chapter this morning) btw
Pacifist route: Haha almost like you can hide a corpse in there amirite? Lmao
Snowgrave route: ... *Looks over at berdley "sleeping"*
I really like that Berdly straightens up and doesn't goof off when he realizes somethings wrong with Noelle.
The game is literally telling us that we, the player, *the one controlling Kris through the soul,* are the real villian. We are the ones doing all this. We are making decisions against Kris's will and forcing him to do and say things he doesn't want to.
And that's why he disconnects our control over him by ripping the soul out so that you can't stop him from making his own decisions. But he can't throw the soul away as he can't live without it.
If Kris knows how dangerous we players are, why don't they try to warn others that there's something owning them and controlling them? Why don't they seek help to find a way out of our control? If they warned the other characters, it could have prevented us from manipulating Noelle, it could have saved the other characters. Why doesn't Kris do anything like that to try and stop us?

What gets me is how Noelle's eyes roll back into her head and she basically loses control of herself when she casts Snowgrave, which is appropriate since you've basically mentally broken her to your will at this point. She's just an RPG tool to do damage.
2:09 berdly: you're probably wondering how i ended up in this situation
It all started the day i was born
Given that Snowgrave does roughly between 1800-2300 damage, here is a list of Darkners who could survive snowgrave if they were at full health when the spell was cast:
- King (2800 health)
- Jevil (3500 health)
- Giga Queen (4500 health, only 1510 regularly)
- Spamton NEO (4809 health, Noelle's attack only succeeds at the end of the snowgrave route because Kris already weakened Spamton to ~6-10% of his HP)
- Lancer (2400 health during the Susie fight)
- Berdly in his cart (1985 health in his cart, 900 without it, as seen in the battle in the video)
- Tasque Manager (1367), K Round (1500), Werewerewire (1783), Mauswheel (1753), and Clover (1500) would all come close to survival, but fall just short
berdly's HP is 900
900 x 3 is 2700, close enough to 2300
the snowgrave description is simply "Fatal"
so i think it deals three times the amount of health a person has
@@cloverlovania or the triple of his left health
Even tough this comment is pretty old, I’d like to point out that Noelle didn’t use Snowgrave on Spamton NEO, as the attack sound effect is from Iceshock. Maybe it is a mistake, but considering that they changed the blue of Kris to yellow from Noelle on that same scene but not the sound effect, I believe it was intentional. Also, we should consider that Spamton had elevated his defense with NEO to a point that Kris could only do 1 damage to him, so I believe that after killing Berdly, Noelle and Snowgrave grew much stronger.
makes me think how just everything lined up perfectly for someone to die for real with Snowgrave, if it had been any other major character (mostly toe ones you can fight tho) they might have survived as per their health
Love the subtle details in this fight compared to the normal route. In this fight, berdly’s battle sprite has a serious look on it instead of his usual smirk. When he winds up for his attacks his expression is also more angry instead of smug. He also, from what ive seen, exclusively targets kris unlike the pacifist version. Berdly’s usual facade is gone here and hes clearly very serious about protecting noelle from kris when he truly believes shes in danger. Poor birdly.
I can confirm, yes, he only attacks kris, in the pacifist route he attacks noelle as well (don't ask me why)
"Cold kills slowly - the last sense to go is hearing. That means the last voice you'll hear will be mine. Isn't that romantic?"
Where is that quote from?
@@auburned-phoenix Warframe.
You know what I like most about this? Everything about it feels wrong. Snowgrave feels like the game not knowing how to account for your actions. It feels like everything is falling apart. And it comes to a head in the battle with Berdly.
The music, usually enthusiastic and grooving, is low and sinister. The sound effect of casting Snowgrave is shrill and ear-piercing. The ray of ice encasing Berdly is just this NOISE that feels like warped scraping metal.
Sound design is a big part of video games and Toby Fox has nailed it through and through.
The entire Snowgrave route feels like a creepypasta in the most horrifying of ways.
This route genuinely feels as if the game itself doesn't want you to play it. So incredibly specific, ridiculously precise, and at every possible opportunity the game gives you the chance to just stop, think about what you're doing, and get back on the right path.

I might he stating the obvious, but it’s so creepy that Iceshock exists in the video game Noelle plays. She knows damn well what it does when you command her to cast it.
Not Snowgrave, though. She probably really was clueless about what that one would do.

The fact that berdly dropped his prick personality when he noticed that noelle was acting strange,he actually cares about her as a friend
Well if you listen to his story in pacifist about why he joined queen's side you'll know why
1:03, if you look at Berdly's expression during this attack animation, you see that in both parts of the animation, his expression is completely different:
When he's normally charging up his attack, his eyes just shrink and nothing else, but in Snowgrave, he gives a nasty glare towards Kris's direction.
Finally, when he's actually attacking and holding the spear, his eyebrows are straight, showing that he's legitimately furious and no longer being arrogant.
Berdly was no longer joking around, and was fully prepared to outright kill Kris if it meant saving Noelle.
I'm gonna love to see how this plays out. With Kris taking a life in pacifist, and Noelle taking many in 'genocide' it'll be fun to see what direction he goes. One annoying thing though is that it'll take forever to do every run now that there's multiple parts

RIP Berdly
Major DDLC vibes from this, it feels so- wrong.
I know right? I get the distinct feeling we are literally turning Noelle into Monika, where she's going to be obsessed with the player, doing whatever she thinks we want, with the difference being that in this case, the player essentially groomed her and paved the path for her to be that way. Honestly it's so interesting.
Except the hanging part
I love that when noelle's in danger berdly drops the bravado and is deeply concerned.
Good thing Susie entered & interrupted Kris' answer (or the Player's, since she always comments how the voice feels terrifying and stays in her head, even when Kris is down or gone), so that she won't commit suicide so early, lolz...
I might be imagining it but when you enter battle in pacifist route each battle has Noel kinda having a mini freak out with each encounter.... But here and in a lot of other battles I've seen in genocide, it looks more like she's getting literally dragged into each battle by the scruff of her neck, I might just be imagining it but I'd love for someone to confirm
I know her demeanor changes in many ways as you progress through snowgrave. For example, if you act on one of the virus boys, she normally falls over in her nurse outfit, but she doesn’t while in snowgrave.
After equipping the thorn ring,(or maybe the freeze ring), Noelle gets a new set of battle sprite animations. Especially the entry into battle sprite, which was her freaking out, now changed to her resisting entering the battle in some way, to show how strong and fearless you have made her.
i know most people really don’t like berdly, but since i see a lot of myself in him, watching this made me feel so weird. especially since lots of other players in the pacifist route joke about wishing they could kill him.
That happens to me when someone does rule34 with my fav character :(
I thought he was annoying at first, but yeah he also really grew on me and I also saw myself in him. He is really relatable and I am so glad I didnt do the snowgrave route. It would have sucked if he died like he did here-
Love how berdly just wants to help Noelle since she never got credit that berdly got, berdly wanted to share the credit and look how the fandom treats my boy
Even if Berdly is quite kinda bad with Kris and friends he was not that sort of a bad guy at all so I kinda feel bad for him after Noelle snow grave him to death
Berdly was an ass but he was never irredeemable. He was just a dumb kid with a big ego. But when the cards are down, his heart is right where it should be. That's what makes him a great character in spite of his flaws.
Yeah. He's just a kid.
Actually, I theorise that Berdly and Kris were good friends, because they both seem to know alot about 'Super Smashing Fighters' we know Kris is good at games because Susie mentions it before they play the arcade game. Still though, he didn't deserve any of that. He said that he had to act smart to feel superiority. (most likely to boost his self-esteem) and the poor kid died to the hands of the player.
I like how Spamton makes a comment on Neo's high defense making a joke on how Mettaton Neo's true defense was in the negatives.
Something I find interesting is how people automatically assume Kris is, indeed, a self-insert character whose personality is shaped around the player's. But then when they do the snowgrave route, this completely changes to "Kris is [their own character and is] evil." Perhaps this is a case of denialism: them denying fact because they simply do not want to hold themselves accountable for their actions.
Which... says a lot about people, doesn't it? I guess Deltarune really is a 'survery program'
"It looks like another enemy, Should i freeze them?" - Noelle
I think the people who dislike berdly don't understand his character. you have to remember, they're all kids. he obviously has low self esteem and he sees all these people as much more intelligent than himself. he tries to make himself appear smarter so he won't feel so stupid, but in the game you keep showing him time and time again that you're better than him. it weighs on him. everyone sees him as annoying, when he's just a kid trying to be better, and he keeps getting knocked down. i really love him as a character
a pretty *chilling* route, isn't it?
Damn, that's *cold*
Can everyone just *chill* with the *ice* jokes? Seriously it's very *cold* of people to make jokes after someone who wanted to help Noelle litteraly fucking died

This should be called the ⑨ route, because you effectively freeze everything in your path, just like the strongest.
(if you actually get this without me explaining it i love you)
hell yeah cirno moment
baka
noooo, berdly, he may act like a snarky asshole alot of the time but thats only because he craves admiration, he feels dumb and usless, so he seeks the possative reanforcment he wants from people like noelle, but deep down he still cares for his friends, he doesnt want anyone to die, this is even shown at the end of a normal run when berdly says we could try studying with susie, atempting to put aside his diferences, not from believing he fell for susie, but because he accepted the fact that making mistakes is fine, he was furious at the thought of kris hurting noelle, he even got powered up and ONLY hurts kris unless hes already down, and before he hurts noelle he tries to convince her while kris is out of it before noelle states she can still hear kris, overall berdly bravley tried to save his friend and died for his bravery, may he rest in peace
on the dark world, take her watch away from her inventory and put it in yours, at the hospital, instead of talking about your voice as being terrifying she will say "if it was all just a bad dream... then why are you wearing my watch? when did you get this?"

I don't know if Berdly is actually die or not...
Maybe... Just maybe... Berdly got frozen in the Dark World, so he can't get out from his dream.
Maybe he's in a type of coma or something like that
he's..
dead.
@@saturn1g More like in coma because his conscious is still in the dark world
@@jontuxen2724 makes more sense, actually-
sorry
that would be a copout that would invalidate the tension and stakes. No, considering how Toby rolls, Berdly is frozen chicken.
My favorite part of the snowgrave route story-wise has to be how alienated and unimportant Queen becomes. It helps demonstrate how, though it all may seem real, this is just a collection of fantasies from a couple teenagers, which is obviously reflected in Queen's cheesiness in the normal route. But when things get serious, such as when Berdly realizes that he's in actual danger, it's interesting to see him so serious as it's almost a sort of moment of "snap out of it, this is REAL danger." I think the absence of Queen's melody in Berdly's Snowgrave theme also reflects this, as she's really just a pretend obstacle for fun in the normal route, thus making her unimportant when compared to the actual danger of Kris's, or rather, our own, actions.
And there he goes, a bird in a desk, braindead, and is expected to die and rot after 8-21 days without consumption of vital needs, that is if someone hasn't enter the room...Well even if he was brought to a hospital, it is futile. Cold Corpse=Snow Grave.
probably sooner too... you cant live for more then 3 days w/o water (berdly aint human but i'm just using the same logic cause hes anthro)
I love Berdly, he didn’t deserve this
I like that during the Spamton fight, it goes from "Kris called for help" to *"You* whispered Noelle's name".
The Undertale fan base has pretty much always had an issue of blaming Chara for the Genocide route, but it was *your* choice to kill.
Here, you take that role "Chara" took according to fans. The game makes it obvious that *you* did this. *YOU* made Noelle cast Snowgrave.
This makes me think that the "Your choices don't matter" aspect wasn't directed at the player, it was directed at Kris. This can be shown with their calls for help not working, but *YOURS* does.
Possibly, that "soul" is you. Kris is shown stabbing it out, wanting to get rid of it. You control it. There's no "Chara" to blame for the "murderous parasite" role. Unless you blame *yourself.*
technically he isn't dead because if he was he would've been turned to dust in the computer lab. he's more in a permanent coma than actually dead.
More like his soul (concience) is frozen inside so he is in an ultra deep coma
But how long would it be before the doctors take him off life support? Doctors and his family would just think he was in a comatose or even brain dead state and eventually pull the plug.
The only people who knew what really happened are Kris and Noelle.
Kris is possessed by the player, or maybe the knight that awakens the darkness. They probably wouldn’t be able to help even if they wanted to.
Noelle doesn’t know how to get back to the Dark World, and there might not even be a way to get back and unfreeze Berdly since the fountain was closed.
Even then, would she be able to resist the “voice”? How long would it be until she became another thrall for the player, like Kris?
@@liammccafferty4755 if he’s breathing in the computer lab u wouldn’t need to pull the plug
I swear this should be a creepypasta
There's more. You need to take her watch and then say nothing at the end (choose "..."). Then the real terror kicks in, as she realizes it's was not a dream, because you have her watch.
"watch what happens when i cast a spell i don't know!"
- Me button mashing in a fighting game and doing a massive super move i don't know the input for
you can see the fear in his eyes when he realizes he’s about to die.
Jesus Christ toby
I never hear people talk about Spamtons dialogue while you're calling your friends for help.
It really sounds like he's talking more about himself rather than Kris and or the player
"OH GOD MAYBE"
"MAYBE GAMERS DO DIE ACTUALLY"
also anyone notice how his halberd opens it's eye when noelle casts snowgrave?
Snowgrave is basically what earthbound enemies see when paula use pk freeze
For real, that's what I thought when I was using IceShock
