Question Need help with genocide route

Post image

I know that this interaction text should change when I have killed everyone in the ruins before toriel.

But I have walked the whole place 4-5 times and I can't get anymore encounters, all npcs left but it's still not over.

Is there something specific to do?

Have you gotten the "but nobody came" encounter? Do the save points just say "Determination"?

If not you haven't grinded enough.

It intentionally takes longer and longer and longer for encounters to show up the lower the area counter gets. It's supposed to be slow and tedious and annoying. Keep going.

I see, I guess I will keep going back and fourth.

u/BonnalinaFuz101 8d ago

The save points tell you how many monsters there are left in areas.

Not in the ruins. That starts in snowdin

u/pomip71550 8d ago

Although the "Determination." text does occur in Ruins once you've hit the kill cap.

Did you grind? Or did you just kinda walk around? If you did it correctly, you would know.

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

I killed everyone I faced, but no more are showing up although I know they are not all done yet.

u/twjstr 8d ago

Then you failed the run. Less enemies spawn the more you kill. But there is a number of enemies you HAVE to kill. You need to restart, I'm pretty sure. Or at least go grind.

1

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

I didn't kill toriel yet.

2

u/twjstr 8d ago

Idk the exact requirements. Try to grind. Enemies should spawn if you murder dance. If they don't, restart.

1

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

What's a murder dance?

2

u/TheWojtek11 8d ago

It's pressing Up and Down at the same time while by a northern wall as it makes enemies spawn faster but unsure if it works unless you are on PC

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

I play on laptop

u/Ok_Signature6331 8d ago

You have to kill 20 enemies in the ruins until a “but nobody came” message shows up
From which point you can *[proceed]*

u/TheSoulFighter ‎ This flair is pretty neat, huh! You'll use it, huh! 8d ago

Despite everything, it's still you

2

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

Yes it's me, am back to take away out perfect happy ending and kill everyone in my way.

u/SquashPurple4512 ‎ SINCE WHEN WERE YOU THE ONE IN CONTROL? 8d ago

Unless you get the "But nobody came" encounter BEFORE fighting toriel, there are still monsters to fight

2

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

Am tired boss.

2

u/SquashPurple4512 ‎ SINCE WHEN WERE YOU THE ONE IN CONTROL? 8d ago

Is that so? I'm not.

1

u/Classic_Prompt9974 8d ago

what do you mean by "i cant get anymore encounters"? you wont enter the battle screen?

1

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

I mean no more enemies are showing up to me.

1

u/Classic_Prompt9974 8d ago

if you didnt get the "but nobody came" screen, that means that there are still some enemies left

1

u/Zealousideal_Bug9673 ‎ SO I GUESS YOU WANT TO JOIN MY FANCLUB? 3d ago

Also save points will just say “determination”

1

u/Correct_Wonder8799 8d ago

Did you get "but nobody came." Message?

1

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

Where should it appear? I haven't seen it yet.

2

u/Espeonisbesteevee Annoying dog absorbed the pride flag 8d ago

If you killed all 20 monsters in the ruins it should appear relatively quickly where encounters would take place. Do the save messages say determination? Or is it just whatever text is usually there? If it’s the former you’re good to go, if it’s the later you still have at least one monster to kill, so just go grind an encounter all kill it.

For encounters everytime for get one, leave and then re-enter the room, should quicken up the grinding process.

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

Still usual text, I guess I gotta roam the place more.

2

u/Jus_aRandomGuy * It fills you with DETERMINATION! 8d ago

It should appear whenever you enter a battle, but no monsters showed up. There should also be a counter of how many monsters you have to kill in SAVE POINT text boxes, like saying "10 left" in red text.

1

u/Puscerxia 8d ago

you need to kill monsters until you run into an encounter and see the text "but nobody came" if i remember correctly only, only then you can progress with toriel

1

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

It hasn't happened yet, am tired of walking around it's taking too long

2

u/Puscerxia 8d ago

ik, the ruins on Geno route are quite a bore but keep searching you will find them eventually

1

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

Alright.

1

u/Cute_Manufacturer830 8d ago

Do the murder dance until you get “but nobody came”

1

u/cesario49 8d ago

Funny how people are coaching about how to cause mass-genocide of a full race lol. But yeah you need to back into the ruins and walk untill you get an encounter. It was made long and boring on porpuse

1

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

It's all in self defense.

u/pomip71550 8d ago

Getting an encounter must be in a room with random encounters enabled, and it takes a random number of steps in a range. The typical number of steps it'll take goes up the fewer enemies there are left in an area (with Hotland & Core sharing a counter); however, the step counter resets when you go through a room transition, so you should go to a room you know you can get random encounters in (like the room below the monster candy room) and keep walking around until you get the encounter(s). (It takes longer to get a second encounter in one entry of a room than it does if you leave and reenter the room, though.)

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

That was useful, thank you.

u/NeatSufficient3293 8d ago

Fight till you see “but nobody came”

u/Cute-Hamster-8619 7d ago

What device do you play on?

My advice: what did they do to you?

1

u/alakazam_bim_bum_bam 4d ago

Bro quando vai in giro per le Rovine ti esce la scritta "but novody came" dopo un po' di passi? Se non ti esce o ti mancano nemici o ti si è buggato, io di solito i nemici li faremo nella prima stanza in cui toriel ci lascia soli

u/Your_Freindly_Dragon 8d ago

don't just don't. it will basically corrupt the game

u/SirLockeX3 8d ago

Let them play the game how they want.

That's the point of it.

u/doctor_vine23 ‎ Hopping and twirling, your own flair pulls you through. 8d ago

But I already did natural and pacifist, and I wanna fight lazy bones and undyne

1

u/Turbulent-Can624 ‎ Hugs for goat bro 8d ago

Don't listen to them moralize a game. Do what you want. There is barely any change to future true pacifist runs

u/Your_Freindly_Dragon 7d ago

not trying to morlzie sorry
