Hi guys. I've discovered this game 2 weeks ago (or so) and spent too much time completing it. Since this game is like Undertale, is it possible to reach a post-Genocide ending? I've tried different ways to start again, but both Genocide and Hypocrite endings don't let me play another routes
This game makes use of a global save file, which controls the variables and switches that enable how the title screen looks and such.
Now if you're seeking to playing a Geno -> Geno or any other route, then go to the Bonus option when loading up the game (after pressing start when booting up). There you should press "Remove NG+ Benefits", this is to make sure you don't start with any demon affection and stuff.
If you're coming from Hypocrite, then doing this will cause events were you're unable to recruit most of the demons, as they remember you.
If coming from a previous GENO run, be ready to see them want to run in your presence.
Now Hyakki will always appear in a run following Hypocrite, however for obvious reasons she no longer appears after a GENO, this is why people recommend to backup your saves as the PublicData file can't be edited whatsoever.
There is hope however if you don't want to delete your saves, there is a code you need to input to the roasted pig in Hell or in the clear rooms. This code will remove all Genocide flags like negative affection and kill counts.
Code is:
5641071
Side note: If you're wondering which route events can occur here's a list
- HYPOCRITE -> (Not fully tested but I know not trying GENO after hypocrite will trigger some events)
- TRUE MERCY -> GENO (Made me cry doing so)
- GENO -> GENO (OOH spooky)
- PARDON -> (Causes events that mention you being monitored due to your actions and some events of broken trust)
Edit: To correct a mistake I made. Hypocrite and Pardon are NOT the same, pardon is what I previously mentioned where most demons cannot be recruited, HYPO likely destroys chances of recruitment entirely.
Hope you have a good day and stay safe!
Till next time.
