Deltarune Chapter 2 Spamton NEO Boss Battle - Genocide Run

The conditions for a genocide run in Deltarune Chapter 2 have been discovered! The run finishes with a different boss than the normal pacifist run. Spamton Neo is back, but this time you must fight him alone.

How to Trigger a Genocide Run

[NintendoProductions]

A genocide run in Deltarune Chapter 2 is very real and very much possible to do yourself. I have put together another video detailing how to trigger the run, as well as anything interesting that I found while recording it. There is a link in the description of this video. Thanks so much for watching!

I love how he said neo is famous for it's defenses when that wasn't the case in undertale

[Generalmacka]

“Hey, is it cold in here or is it just me?”

That line gave me 12 heart attacks

[sijrben]

i was wondering why the spamton neo fight was significantly easier than jevil and then i stumbled upon this

[Shadowflutter]

Such a weird route. You never saw Spamton in his normal form before and he just suddenly took control of the mansion and pops out of nowhere in his Neo form as final boss. Contrary to the pacifist route where it builds-up Spamton as character

[bennettdaniel]

"But don't blame ME when you're CRYING IN A BROKEN HOME because you didn't let your Old Pal Spamton KILL YOU!!!"
Let that one sink in.

5:42
Spamton: IT'S FOR ME?!?!
Also Spamton: *gets himself clobbered by his own face popping out of his phone*

[Dayashii]

So are we going to accept the fact noelle did 2.1k damage? And Theoretically Massacred the people in the mansion

Spamton speaking in all caps and barely any punctuation is silly at first, but his line "OH RIGHT.. THAT'S WHY I SOLD IT TO YOU " really gets me. I have no idea why.

Seriously, having to fight this guy here was a complete surprise. I thought this was fake for a second.

I love how in 1:08 that you just have a yellow heart without any tutorial before fighting, indicating that you’ve seen the non-snow grave route of spamton NEO’s fight before.

[MegaDude]

Mettaton: WHO ARE YOU?!
Spamton: I'm y0u but [a bigshot].

Okay - from a game design standpoint, I have to say that this is pretty smart, making the genocide boss and the pacifist bonus boss functionally identical. A lot of people went out of their way to do Undertale's genocide route specifically because they wanted to fight Sans, and that was the only way to do so without mods/hacks. Locking a fun fight behind that route made a lot of people take it who otherwise wouldn't, which probably isn't what the developer wanted to have happen.

But here, the fight is basically the same - harder, yes, but only because you are fighting by yourself instead of in a group. But, aside from some dialogue, you aren't really missing anything if you don't go this way - in fact, you're actually missing out on the Queen's fight (and a few mini bosses) instead, just to see this version.

It's always been clear that the game steers you towards the pacifist route, but now there's even less reason to go for genocide unless you genuinely just want to see that story.

Skipped a fight? Not a problem! Just fight the spam bot!

Honestly, I’ve said this before but like.. holy shit, what a genocide run this is.

[hdckighfkvhvgmk]

something I noticed...
In the last phase of the fight when you call for Susie or Ralsei it says:
*Kris* called for help...
but when you call for Noelle it says:
*You* whispered Noelle's name

[DIVINE_WEAPN]

Ok but the “nobody came” stuff as well as his own self reflection about how nobody will answer when Kris calls for help gave me a throwback to omega flowey tbh. I’m surprised nobody has pointed that out yet.

[vikas_room]

honestly the battle being in front of the fountain and also being a 1 on 1* makes it that much sicker

*until noelle shows up

[robertocastro]

Undetale fans: We want a mettaton neo fight

Toby fox:




Fans: i will take it

[LevenLappi]

I insist on we call this the "bigshot route" for this chapter because then someone will get confused, do the route, then understand <3

[sansundertale]

What the hell does this mean for future chapters and the ending of the game as a whole? Is there going to be some crazy route that requires specific actions in each of the 7 chapters?
