@Godzillavkk They don't have to make Belos religious. I'm just saying that he lacks some depth besides "he's evil". I felt they focused on how evil he is instead of anything personal to him. It would've been very interesting if he found out that the Clawthrones were his brother's descendants and tried to kill them while knowing this fact. I would've liked if the story looked deeper into his background too.

A Pure Evil Chara misses the point of their character completely.

Can't believe their canon self had a PE Proposal, never seen a more obvious nonqualifier in my life. But then again, my interpretation of Chara was always "innocent spectator who merely watched everything happen and either was emboldened by it or became just as cruel and sadistic as the player", because interpreting Chara as the "evil" one is, in my eyes, a rather silly thing done by players to deflect blame from themselves. There's very little indication Chara "forces" anything, and red text is used mainly to add emphasis, so saying that's all Chara's writing is pretty odd. It's implied they're the writer for dialogue in interactions in BOTH routes, which is what I believe, and I believe that, ultimately, the player is the one to blame, and Deltarune's going to make that explicitly clear in upcoming chapters due to how people missed the point of the genocide route by assuming they got possessed and were freed of blame for... killing fictional characters (wow).

But Chara is actually rather interesting when you think of Undertale's themes. The whole "smiling" thing can be explained as sadness, oddly enough, due to multiple cases of smiling be used in that way. Heck, the reason it's considered "creepy" might be because it's so OBVIOUS Chara is in distress deep down.

But that's just me ranting about nothing. TLDR, Chara is a rather complex character for whom forcing into PE status is rather shallow and ultimately is due to lack of ability to read into subtext beyond "Chara wasn't the greatest of people" (yeah nobody is, Asriel never said they were bad just not the best). It's about as ridiculous as a PE Amanda Waller, and yet, there are dozens of PE Charas. Sighhh...

@Yoshikage1234 I think Belos is fine, but yeah, it would have been interesting if both him and the others found out about his relationship with the Clawthornes.

Also, he’s very clear he’s a religious extremist, there’s no need to make it clearer than it already is.

@JustinMasterMine Yeah, “Greg is a sociopath” is a very annoying depiction. Like, I’m fine if you don’t like him as a character, but calling him a sociopath is just wrong. Besides that it isn’t an actual medical term, Greg doesn’t even have all that traits.

@MarioD0607 He did not come off as a religious extremist. He felt like an ordinary extremist to me.

Well, he’s a witch hunter and he did call the Boiling Islands “perdition”. He also assumed a… particular pose when fusing with the Titan’s heart (which shows how much huge his hubris is).

Poor choice of words and I thought I was hubris…

?

Accounty the Sequel does Deltarune have any connection to Undertale i am asking cuz Chara does appear in Deltarune a bit. If she returns in Deltarune she might have a change at being PE

I have two unpopular opinions.

1. I believe The CEO was meant to be seen as a typical supervillain by Badimo. I've kept an eye on him since his boss fight came out which is when I came back to Jailbreak and all I can say is that "typical supervillain" is an understatement.

2. I like Infinite depsite his poor writing.
