I'm honestly surprised at how she can go into games like Undertale blind. The game is out for years, the memes are abundant, but she still manages to pull it off!
Yeah, that will really help her play the game and actually have FUN. Hard to have fun when you have a whole chat yelling at you for not like, petting a dog or something, or having the chat tell you to do something to unlock the TRUE ENDING.
@@genericname2747 2 years later but yeah in general honestly undertale isnt the best game for streaming at all. ppl tend to freak out when you break the pacifist route bc tbh, its true that a lot of the times ppl aren't up for playing the whole game again/ get annoyed that they have to, which is sort of an annoying criticism to hear when u already know its the entire point. shrug
It's so refreshing to see a real blind neutral playthrough. I feel like most people forgot neutral runs existed, and how they're just as important as the Genocide and Pacifist ones for sucking you into the world. Toby made a lot of neutral endings depending on who you spared or killed, so whatever ending you get is truly yours.
I remember an Undertale video by someone who accidentally aborted a Genocide route and they said the ending they got hit much harder for them because it was a lot more personal and unexpected (especially referring to the "Despite everything, it's still you" line)
An actual playthrough that wasn't full pacifist on the first run. Amazing she didn't get bullied into hating Undertale like others had been. This is the content I'm looking for. Also shame on anyone saying people are playing wrong because their blind run wasn't optimal.
Certainly not playing wrong, and no one should be shamed; I think it's mostly a knee-jerk reaction to the fact that most people won't bother to give the game the time to do another run, and therefore miss the more meaningful endings.
If you look in the corner you can see that the chat is on emote only. Also the mods are really good at getting rid of even a crumb of spoiler/backseating.
If the person doesn't do a neutral run first (not pacifist neutral) then they don't really learn anything from the game, just slaves to the toxic backseats
@@hasargel I mean, I played the game doing a pacifist run the first time, playing alone. As I explained (while not defending the backseaters) that they're worried that people won't play it through again. Hell, people (including some reviewers) only played NieR: Automata's Route A, not realizing all the content that came after. It happens.
@@hasargel well, if you know what the game is about in the first place(the original concept, an rpg where you don't need to kill anyone), you will be able to see that the route you chose isn't the only one, especially after the voice mail of sans and papyrus, so you would go back as she said she would do, and try sparing flowey this time, and maybe even try to spare the people you killed last time like toriel, after that, he will tell you how to get the "true happy ending", and you get the Pacifist
Fun fact: this game is the reason why puns (specifically teddie’s puns) don’t bother me. The undertale fandom taught me to like puns, and that has allowed me to actually like teddie. For that alone, undertale deserves my praise.
It says something about me that at the beginning of the video, I'll say "alright, she's going in blind, anything can happen including a neutral route playthrough, which is very likely" And then the second she kills froggit I'll yell "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" Edit: My screams only get louder from here
Boi, I was about ready to throw hands and also kept yelling "RELOAD" but have to calm down cause she doesn't know XD I'm just glad she would not be called a *SPOILER* dirty brother killer
Honestly, I am...so glad we get to see a lets player play this completely blind. Yes, seeing her kill a monster caused me pain. But like, I haven't really seen that before. Most players have at least basic knowledge of the plot, and say "Oh I'm doing pacifist so I won't kill"
The moment she killed the froggit and felt bad about it, I was hoping she'd kill more monsters because it really does suck only killing one and having to play the whole game over again with basically no differences. I was glad to see that LV 6!
Well, she would probably have had more if she didn't feel bad about the massages she read from them(like the cleanit, I think that Was it's name?, whe it was sad from it's wounds, or something)
@@sarafontanini7051 I feel like most of the people who manage to go in relatively blind at least know about the possibility of a pacifist approach. Otherwise it's incredibly easy to fall into the neutral run because you're just following the RPG rules you spent your whole life learning...
@@Sekovatkain It's meant to be that way. The game is easier when you level up and have more HP. Your second time you can make different choices to get different flavor text, but you've also seen the bullet patterns and have a better chance of surviving with lower HP.
@@witchhatter Yeah, I know. I was just pointing out that you're not likely to end up on the pacifist route on your first playthrough unless you already know it's a thing. I also think it's clever game design.
It's probably good that you had emote only for this run while streaming. The amount of fans that want people to play it a certain way is surprisingly high. The game is best experienced with as little input from others so that ger reactions will be genuine. Keep up the good work Crystaahl. Also fun fact, the small cute white dog that constantly pops up all around (the dog that was inside the bottom of the skeleton brother's sink being the first instance it was shown in the video) is the avatar of the creator himself.
Most "Fans" have never been in the fandom, don't know about Glitchtale or Underverse or the three biggest AU's (Underfell, Underswap and Dreemurr Reborn/Happiest Ending) They are casual players who like Undertale and give the fandom a bad name. For example the three biggest AU's creators and hundreds of others deleted their account or stopped completely because of the hate they got. Why the hate? Because they are Undertale fans and ruined their internet with Sans memes/Megalovania.
@@tobiasskorupa1649 a fan just has to be someone who likes something. I don’t know all the AUs, but I do really like undertale and deltarune, therefore, I would call myself a fan of undertale. Also, do you really think people would forgive the community for ruining markiplier’s first let’s-play of undertale because he had to play it “a certain way”. Answer: no. Don’t even get me started on all the other things. All the NSFW art and the Toby fox hate because deltarune wasn’t how people wanted it to be. I know it’s just the bad apples, but when it’s THIS bad, it’s not just something you can ignore.
@@tapwater4425 As if this isn't happening in EVERY fandom, don't act like Undertale is a special case when it isn't. Look at My Hero Academia with death threats against the creator, Steven Universe the same, Five Nights at Freddy's with the recent Scott Cawthon death threats and doxxing. RWBY has UA-camrs making lots of money for hating on the show. BTW, since when is NSFW special? Literally every show, movie, game and fictional character has NSFW art... Are you new to the internet or very naive?
@@tobiasskorupa1649 I’m not saying the undertale community is special, and I do agree that this happens in basically every community and that it’s a massive problem. That’s why I said “I know it’s just the bad apples”. I am aware of the fact that only a small percentage of people in the undertale community do this type of stuff. The reason I was targeting it specifically is because it is so infamous as a “bad community”.
There's something that is quite interesting about the fight with Asgore. When he breaks the mercy button, it could be considered as he is making you unable to show mercy, but, something I think, is that that analysis is completely backwards, he is not making you unable to show mercy, but he is denying your mercy, he thinks he has gone so far that he no longer deserves mercy, and as such, tries to push you away as much as possible, as some kind of atonement. I mean, he clearly doesn't want to fight you, but at the same time, he can't turn his back to the people that hope for freedom, and so, he is forced to either take the final soul or die trying. Thinking about it made me feel even more sad about his death when I actually thought about it. It's like someone you want to save, but tries so hard to push you away, because they are drowning in their own self-loathing. It really reminded me a bit about Akechi, that moment of "I want to save him, but I can't." I hope you have fun with the game being spoiler free (which is something I'm surprised, since it's quite a challenge), and I hope that you'll have the same ammount of fun that I had with this game, because this game made me laugh, cry, got me in suspense, and most of all, got me excited to see what was next. If you end up liking this game, I'm pretty sure you'll enjoy Deltarune too.
Dude I was also thinking about Akechi, like what CrystAAHHL said during his fight. “Akechi just reminds me of that one friend you can’t save, like no matter how hard you try they’re just to far gone”
@@Aimi_Kaneko Yeah, being honest, even though their circumstances to feel that way aren't the same, it really feels the same when you end up liking the character and try to save it. That frustration of not being able to save them is honestly quite similar.
I can’t wait to see your reaction to the other routes that are available, what you got there is titled as the “Neutral Route” since you did kill enemies, but you spared some too. There’s other routes as well depending on your actions, but I won’t say anything on it since I want you to explore it on your own, but this was a funny as hell first play through! Can’t wait to see more!
The neutral route is also the only one where the ending is different depending which bosses you spared or killed. Especially the one where Mettaton becomes king is just lol.
The devil horns on the thumbnail are a fittingly nice touch considering the route taken (watched the whole stream just before seeing this uploaded) Now i'mma anxiously wait for the genocide/pacifist reactions
Spoilers for the video in general, so Killing Flowey is *probably* gonna make things a little harder in the long run, since Flowey won't be giving advice and she's running completely blind. Hopefully things get figured out but hoo boy, this'll be something.
fun (probably creepy too) fact: if you kill Toriel, go back to your save, and beat her with mercy, Flowey will point you out on it. Flowey saw you kill Toriel and watched you reload your save guilt-ridden. Undertale Remembers.
Picked the perfect time for coming back from vacation basically w/o internet! Nice that she figured out what the game is going for under the surface, there is a LOT more to see! Have a good day, everyone (and to you Crys, when you read the comments later on)!
It's the best choice to avoid spoilers/backseating from the chat and UA-cam comments, because Markiplier has his own playthrough ruined because the comments keep telling him to play the game a certain way, or even spoil him stuff! For Undertale, this is a game where you do not want to be spoiled. He ended up not making Undertale a gameplay series since...what's the point? All in all, I can't wait to see you play through Undertale! Looking forward to it Crystal!
I watched segments of the stream when you posted it, and I have to say that I was very afraid you were going to accidentally kill Papyrus while making progress towards the Mercy way out of that fight, since you attacked him a few times. Usually I see people either just attack or just go for Mercy, so it was an interesting experience! (I, of course, wouldn't be able to be cross with you even if you killed him since I am guilty of an attempted Genocide run)
One of the froggits explained that with low enough health, monsters’ names become yellow and they become spareable but the last attack with toriel always has a lot of damage even if you don’t time it to be in the middle
@@AstralMuffin105 I thought I had to lower her HP first, but you end up doing WAY more damage when their health is low, which I didn't know then. I reloaded my old save file and spared her correctly. Flowey will actually call you out on this too. I was freaked out when this happened.
I'm so happy she decided to go in blind. Like, the game forces you into the Neutral route ending for your first playthrough anyway, all that going Pacifist from the get go does is let you load your save and go straight into Pacifist from there, but the games not long to re-tread once you've done it once. Plus the game does a very good job of guilting you for your decisions, as we see several times here, and thats honestly a massive part of the experience. The way people demand that everyone play pacifist from the start really defeats the purpose of the game.
This is amazing, when I saw it I clicked on it immediately, undertale is my favorite game of all time and to see a UA-camr/streamer that I watch play this, it makes me happy
Man, it's still nice to see new fans try Undertale for the first time, I can't wait till you play the Pacifist, Genocide Route and Deltarune Chapter 1 and 2! :)
10:36 Oh man…you have NOT seen how I abused the selling system in Dragon Quest 8, I used the Alchemy pot and bought as many medicinal herbs as I could and made strong medicines, and basically I made a 5.5x profit so I had an infinite gold exploit
Out of all the blind playthroughs I've seen I've never seen anyone actually kill Flowey. I can appreciate a good blind neutral run, the game excels at turning the normal gaming tropes on their heads forcing you to learn as you go. It's cool to see people go through that journey
MAN. Years and years of loving this game, and yet it was this playthrough that really made it hit fully home for me how darn clever the way the choice of mercy is presented. It’s introduced before the option to fight is, and you’re encouraged to use it from the get-go. The game goes out of its way to make the monsters as cute and sympathetic as it can in the limited time you interact with them & makes you feel bad for killing them. But you keep doing it, because rpg brain insists that you need levels, and it _does_ make the game easier - only to discover that “leveling” was just straight up Murder. The game became easier because you were willing to hurt people for your own gain. And then, right as you learn this, the game _takes away the option of mercy_ and forces you to fight Asgore. And then Flowey kills him before you have a chance to spare him, further taking the choice out of your hands. At the end, the game gives you a choice: kill Flowey, as he has insisted on the whole game.. or spare him. You have no incentive to spare him, really, because this route doesn’t give you any information on Flowey as a character other than his cruelty. He has done nothing but hurt you. You’re not penalized or rewarded for either option, really. The game ends either way. But most players choose kindness anyway, because they don’t want to hurt anyone else. And in doing so, he gives them the ability to save everyone. Its just so darn clever, both in terms of gameplay and in story! I love this game so much
so glad you didnt do a pacifist run the first time. my first ever playthrough of undertale was neutral and im honestly glad, its way more interesting when you do the other routes when you do a neutral one first. loved watching :)
YES. One of my favorite channels playing one of my fav games. This one is a real gem. Have fun! I'll keep my future comments under SPOILERS, some fun trivia for you to browse in the future :)
As I’m sure you’ve gathered from this comment section, you’re opening a rabbit hole deeper than you could ever hope to imagine. At least you don’t have to wait quite as much as the rest of us will, as you will most certainly get hooked to this wonderful series.
All of y'all are shocked that she has managed to avoid spoilers this whole time but I bet if you asked your parents or someone else they'd be like "what's an undertale?" And then look at you crazy when you try to explain it to them
youtube put this into my recommended for some reason which is strange because i haven't played undertale in years and have no interest in deltarune. i'm glad though because it was very funny and i will definitely be trying to catch some of your streams :D
10:30 meanwhile that game too: "Oh, dog resedue ! You can sell that if you need, for sure" If you don't know, dog resedue basically infinite item in the game
The fact that she’s able to play this spoiler free, six years after it comes out, is honestly amazing
No it’s not. Millions upon millions of people won’t have even heard of the game.
Ackshually
@@Jayfive276 yea and these people either don't use the internet or live under a rock

BLESS THE MODS.

@@IFCLeon right?
Not everyone is obsessed with an endless stream of captioned internet pictures.
Honestly I didn’t know anything about Persona until she started playing.

Whoever was responsible for the chat being emote-only, thank you for doing God's work.
she has heard how horrible backseating is in regards to the game, so she made the decision as to not tire the mods haha
Yeah, that will really help her play the game and actually have FUN.

"A run where yu kill everything, wonder what that's like"
CRYSTAAAHHHL NOOOOO!!
Holy shit with the way the first couple minutes have been going, this is going to be an INTERESTING playthrough
It's so great to see someone go into undertale COMPLETELY BLIND in 2021,,, this stream was so much fun to watch aaa!!
I watched segments of the stream when you posted it, and I have to say that I was very afraid you were going to accidentally kill Papyrus while making progress towards the Mercy way out of that fight, since you attacked him a few times. Usually I see people either just attack or just go for Mercy, so it was an interesting experience! (I, of course, wouldn't be able to be cross with you even if you killed him since I am guilty of an attempted Genocide run)
I didn't realize how hard it is to let Toriel live for some people
We are only told once by a frog that we can spare without it being yellow
On my first run, I killed Toriel, and felt so awful for doing it that I immediately deleted the game and started over.
One of the froggits explained that with low enough health, monsters’ names become yellow and they become spareable but the last attack with toriel always has a lot of damage even if you don’t time it to be in the middle
@@rachelnicolas4518 yeah but besides regular monsters, that only works with like, asgore, and people forget that by the time they reach him
@@AstralMuffin105 I thought I had to lower her HP first, but you end up doing WAY more damage when their health is low, which I didn't know then. I reloaded my old save file and spared her correctly. Flowey will actually call you out on this too. I was freaked out when this happened.
honestly its nice to see someone not immediately pressured into a pacifist run right off the bat and play truly blind
I'm so happy she decided to go in blind. Like, the game forces you into the Neutral route ending for your first playthrough anyway, all that going Pacifist from the get go does is let you load your save and go straight into Pacifist from there, but the games not long to re-tread once you've done it once. Plus the game does a very good job of guilting you for your decisions, as we see several times here, and thats honestly a massive part of the experience. The way people demand that everyone play pacifist from the start really defeats the purpose of the game.
the fact that you somehow didn't see a single tiny spoiler for Undertale (which was been around for 6+ YEARS) is just miraculous
This is amazing, when I saw it I clicked on it immediately, undertale is my favorite game of all time and to see a UA-camr/streamer that I watch play this, it makes me happy
Man, it's still nice to see new fans try Undertale for the first time, I can't wait till you play the Pacifist, Genocide Route and Deltarune Chapter 1 and 2! :)
How, HOW HAVE YOU NEVER HEARD OF A N Y T H I N G UNDERTALE!! Where can I learn this power?
10:36
Oh man…you have NOT seen how I abused the selling system in Dragon Quest 8, I used the Alchemy pot and bought as many medicinal herbs as I could and made strong medicines, and basically I made a 5.5x profit so I had an infinite gold exploit
Crystal- I want to see everything this game has to offer
(Megalovania and bad times intensify)
Out of all the blind playthroughs I've seen I've never seen anyone actually kill Flowey. I can appreciate a good blind neutral run, the game excels at turning the normal gaming tropes on their heads forcing you to learn as you go. It's cool to see people go through that journey
Bro I love seeing the evolution of your editing in these videos, they just get better and better and even more enjoyable to watch.
My theory is that the more puns she encounters the more she wants to kill shit
i legit played undertale for the first time this weekend and the flower literally gives me whiplash
I am glad that you could play this game spoiler free!!
I enjoyed watching this! thanks for the laughs...and the cries. LOL!
MAN. Years and years of loving this game, and yet it was this playthrough that really made it hit fully home for me how darn clever the way the choice of mercy is presented. It’s introduced before the option to fight is, and you’re encouraged to use it from the get-go. The game goes out of its way to make the monsters as cute and sympathetic as it can in the limited time you interact with them & makes you feel bad for killing them. But you keep doing it, because rpg brain insists that you need levels, and it _does_ make the game easier - only to discover that “leveling” was just straight up Murder. The game became easier because you were willing to hurt people for your own gain. And then, right as you learn this, the game _takes away the option of mercy_ and forces you to fight Asgore. And then Flowey kills him before you have a chance to spare him, further taking the choice out of your hands.
At the end, the game gives you a choice: kill Flowey, as he has insisted on the whole game.. or spare him. You have no incentive to spare him, really, because this route doesn’t give you any information on Flowey as a character other than his cruelty. He has done nothing but hurt you. You’re not penalized or rewarded for either option, really. The game ends either way. But most players choose kindness anyway, because they don’t want to hurt anyone else. And in doing so, he gives them the ability to save everyone. Its just so darn clever, both in terms of gameplay and in story! I love this game so much
so glad you didnt do a pacifist run the first time. my first ever playthrough of undertale was neutral and im honestly glad, its way more interesting when you do the other routes when you do a neutral one first. loved watching :)
You can't do a pacifist on your first time
@@Gaster60066 ik i meant pacifist not true pacifist
@@kairo-o oooh i see, sorry
3:37 Let the record show, I love the way “kitty cat detective hat” feels on my tongue hole and my ear holes as I say that.
YES. One of my favorite channels playing one of my fav games. This one is a real gem. Have fun! I'll keep my future comments under SPOILERS, some fun trivia for you to browse in the future :)
15:51 Dude when I was playing genocide I saw this line for the first time. I got really attached to Woshua so that line really disturbed me 😭😭😭
OMG, You too?! I just started finally getting to Undertale in order to join in on the Deltarune hype as well! Good luck to the both of us, I suppose!
13:43 Editor game on a whole 'nother level
"when you play too many RPGs and assume LV is levels" *sweats nervously*
No spoilers! I'm watchin y'all....
"Flexes a boulder" - Photo bomb Chris Redfield - LOVE IT!!!
As I’m sure you’ve gathered from this comment section, you’re opening a rabbit hole deeper than you could ever hope to imagine.
At least you don’t have to wait quite as much as the rest of us will, as you will most certainly get hooked to this wonderful series.
When she hit the dummy we all know she goofed it and was out for blood
Crystal finally getting into Undertale? love to see it
YES! Finally she playing Undertale! This is going to be a wonderful trip for her but unfortunately for her her trip decide her fate 🙅
31:54 The number of emotions you went through in a matter of seconds lol
All of y'all are shocked that she has managed to avoid spoilers this whole time but I bet if you asked your parents or someone else they'd be like "what's an undertale?" And then look at you crazy when you try to explain it to them
I’m not gonna spoil anything, but you’re in for a wild ride.
I’m really happy you got to experience this blind, and whoever was responsible for emote only. They are to be commended for foresight.
Amazing she managed to get one of the most interesting ending
The "YOU IDEYOT" had me XD
WHEHHYU SO EXCITED TO SEE YOU PLAY UNDERTALE!!! looking forward to ur reactions i love them a lot
35:00 it is a far greater victory to make your enemy see the world through your eyes rather than close them forever.
This video introduced me to your chanel. Undertale is my favorite game. (:
I see you put chat in Emote only mode.....that was a very very very smart move.
youtube put this into my recommended for some reason which is strange because i haven't played undertale in years and have no interest in deltarune. i'm glad though because it was very funny and i will definitely be trying to catch some of your streams :D
These are always So fun to watch just because undertale is such a different experience for everyone
“My name keeps getting bigger and bigger”
Me: *Nervously looking around*
“THAT’S NOT FRIENDSHIP PELLETS!” amazing start
I love Papyrus having a funky greaser voice
Aghhhh You're playing Undertale! Can't wait to see your decisions :))) Nice video Crystal!
"She's hiding bodies in the basement"
Equivalent to "skeletons in the other side of the wierd door"
Really refreshing to see another newcomer’s first Undertale
"But if I KILL them I get exp"

"oh a flower, i don't why i was so scared"
Damn she can feel the evil now
Undertale
Let's see her reaction to it
I'm perfectly ready.
10:30 meanwhile that game too:
"Oh, dog resedue ! You can sell that if you need, for sure"
If you don't know, dog resedue basically infinite item in the game
!!! YOOOOO CRYSTALS PLAYING UNDERTALE (and then deltarune hopefully) POG
During this video, I got an ad about yellow flowers 5 times total. Flowey has cursed me.
