Future Glitchtale Seasons Speculations

So I really hope @camilaart sees this (even thought I know she’s really busy) because I really want her opinion on this. This has been going on in my head for a VERY long time, ever since I saw in the streams a scene that got deleted for some reason. That’s right. We’re going into deleted scenes for this.

When Betty was in that little shed in Love part 1, there was a whole chunk of that scene that got completely deleted. I don’t know if it was for design mistakes, time, or spoilers, but I think it’s the third one, because of a certain piece of dialogue in that scene. In this deleted chunk, we see the hate inside Betty become an actual sentient being. It looked similar to Kumu, but it was black and had the face of hate. It actually talked to Betty and they exchanged taunts about each other’s failures and shortcomings. So Betty obviously dislikes this thing. But they make a truce that Betty will let Hate share her soul as long as Hate helps her achieve her goal. Then, once she succeeds, Hate can find its own body from the people that she’s killed.

But the super huge thing that I think MANY people missed (I don’t remember anyone in the comments noticing this) is a small piece of dialogue from Betty regarding Hate. 

“And that’s coming from the strongest of the negative traits.”

WHOA.

Wow. Just, wow. A door to a whole realm of possibilities suddenly flew open. Let’s interpret this.

So, “strongest of the negative traits” is referring to Hate, since Betty (Fear) is obviously weaker than it. That part did make the final cut. Now, the “negative traits” could just be Hate and Fear. But what if that’s not the case? What if there’s more of them? We know for sure that Fear is the inverted, or negative, trait of Bravery. If we assume the likely possibility of Hate also being an inverted trait, we can guess that it’s the inverted trait of Kindness. 

Now let’s take this trend and expand it.

KNOWN NEGATIVE TRAITS (based on what we have seen in the show)

Fear (negative Bravery)

Hate (negative Kindness)

THEORETICAL NEGATIVE TRAITS (based on the existing trend)

Apathy (negative Determination)

Prejudice (negative Justice)

Impatience (negative Patience)

Dishonesty (negative Integrity)

Nihilism (negative Perseverance)

Now, our two antagonists so far in Glitchtale have been Chara (season 1) and Betty (season 2). What were their traits? 

Hate and Fear.

Assuming there is a Season 3 (I think Camila said there’s going to be one), we now have an idea about who the villain is going to be. If the trend is followed, it should be another negative trait. And this trend could allow for four more seasons after that. And since Betty exists because the game is trying to fix itself, who’s to say the game doesn’t have backup plans in case she fails? Hate failed? Oh well. Bring in Fear. Fear failed? Bring in Dishonesty. Dishonesty failed? Bring in Prejudice. The game could be endlessly trying to fix itself, flinging a new possibility at the protagonists every time one attempt to fix itself fails. I think it would be especially interesting to see what powers the different traits have.

tl;dr, Hate and Fear aren’t the only negative traits. There are more that the game has in case one attempt to fix itself fails. Chara failed, so it brought in Betty. If Betty fails, it’ll bring in something else. 

So, I can see why Cami didn’t want to include that scene. It would be too easy to figure out the next seasons.

Or, it was just too long. Or Betty’s hair could have looked wonky. You never know.

Betty You Fool: GlitchTale Analysis

Featured: a fool with bad plans.

Note: The following article analyzes Betty's evil motivations and actions to explain how foolish it all is. In Season 2, Episode 5 of GlitchTale, Betty refers to Frisk as a boy once. Up to that point, Frisk is called a "they". As this article almost entirely focuses on Season 2 Episodes 1-4 with only a little Episode 5, it will adhere to episode Episode 1-4 customs.

In brief: Betty’s plans (or "villainy", in general) are ill-conceived and doomed to backfire on her. Supposedly, her goal is to ensure humans and monsters never live in peace, for a civilization where the two coexist would eventually threaten humanity’s survival. However, her goals are based on unfounded fears, and her motives are contradictory. Furthermore, trying to achieve her goal by killing all monsters quickly, with herself as the obvious perpetrator, and killing many humans (including children) for her plan, is just going to unify humans and monsters by giving them a common enemy.

Introduction

In GlitchTale, Bete Noire ("Betty") is a being said to exist for the sole purpose of ensuring humans and monsters never live in peace. Her creator was Agate, the Wizard of Bravery and one of the wizards who created the barrier. Her opinions on monsterkind differed from her brother, another wizard that helped make the barrier. While her brother wanted to destroy the barrier, Agate thought it a good measure to keep the peace. Agate challenged him over the fate of the barrier, lost the fight, and exiled herself. Later, she used a forbidden spell to increase her power, returned, and killed her brother. Dying from the spell, she used her soul and the corpse of her little sister (who she killed to weaken her brother) to make Betty.

Betty herself was released from the barrier itself when it was broken. Soon after she woke up, Agate “uploaded” her memories to Betty, and told Betty her purpose.1 Disguised as a sweet human girl, Betty befriended Frisk. She also manipulated Jessica Grey, head of the Anti-Monster Division, who wanted revenge on monsters after learning Asgore killed her missing child 20 years ago. Betty promised to Jessica to turn all monsters to dust (kill them). However, she later showed her true nature: when Jessica wouldn’t give her the hate vial (a noxious power-up), Betty tormented her with a gruesome illusion of her dead child and attacked her.

Jessica, having survived, turns against Betty very quickly. She apologizes to Asgore, asks for his help in defeating Betty, and gets him out of prison/jail to this end. This is all for her daughter’s killer, which shows just how drastically Jessica's beliefs changed. Jessica also cooperates with several other monsters to take down Betty, and gets many humans to team up with monsters as well. She even sacrifices herself so that W.D. Gaster, a monster, may live.

If Betty’s goal is to ensure humans and monsters never live in peace, she really messed up.

Betty's Ill-Conceived Motivations

In roughly a month, humans adjusted very well to living with another species of sentient beings. From Season 2, Episode 1.

First, Betty’s beliefs are unfounded, and sometimes even contradictory. She (or possibly Agate) wants to “ensure humanity’s survival.” As she believes monsters are a threat to humanity, she wants to ensure the two never live in peace, or for that matter coexist.

Yet, as Frisk points out in the first episode of Season 1, monsters are harmless2: as of that episode, humans and monsters co-existed for about a month without any problems. Furthermore, integrating them into human society with more rights could only benefit humanity, increasing their likelihood of survival. (e.g., Gaster’s CORE expansion becoming a non-polluting, unlimited, self-sustaining power source that will make electricity free and blackouts a thing of the past)

Furthermore, if they somehow did turn hostile to humans, they couldn’t do much and they would be easy to kill off. As Betty knows from experience (and Agate might know from the war) humans are far stronger than monsters and can kill them easily, particularly since humanity as a whole massively outnumbers monsters now. Though Betty evidently believes a civilization with monsters and humans existing together “is just a time bomb waiting to go off” and “that [she is] doing good by speeding up the process”, in going through with her plan she causes problems and casualties where none previously existed.

It's possible Betty fears monsters would gain godlike power by absorbing seven human souls, just as the Waterfall plaques claim. Though the plaques also claim this had never actually happened, they then say humans attacked monsters out of paranoia they would take their souls. It is possible Agate told Betty about this, which is why Betty thinks monsters threaten humanity.

However, monsters living together peacefully with humans have no reason to do this, and might not even believe it possible so much as a myth humans made up. Indeed, if some monster went rogue and killed a human to absorb a soul, it's likely other monsters would team up with humans to take down the rogue monster.

Notably, Frisk went up against a god and won. If Betty only knew of Frisk's track record against beings with godlike power, she'd be even more eager to make Frisk an ally, just in case a monster did get seven human souls and cause the worst-case scenario humans evidently feared so long ago.

Betty's Plan is Doomed to Backfire

An example of cooperation: Jessica Grey, showing the extent of her reversal in beliefs.

Of all the ways she could operate on her (irrational) beliefs, her plan is the worst. First, she tricks a monster (Papyrus) into accidentally killing some humans by dropping metal girders on them. Sans (a monster) uses blue magic on the bars (represented as telekinesis) to try to stop them from landing on anyone, but Ms. Grey (secretly allied with Betty) disables his ability to use magic. The girders then crush some humans. Later, Betty's plan involves killing hundreds of humans (including many children) in a short time, to use their souls as a power-up so she can kill off lots of monsters very quickly.

Even if she’s evil enough to disregard the obvious moral issues of her plan, it would still have two problems. One, her aim is supposedly to “ensure humanity’s survival”, yet big parts of her plan are blatantly anti-human, and she makes herself a threat to humanity’s survival. Two, since she’s neither human nor monster, kills both, and makes it obvious she’s the killer, monsters and humans have very good reason to team up to kill her and, in the process, lessen prejudice between them. This would get them to cooperate more, increasing the chances of long-term peace between them.

Therein lies a contradiction: though her plans are supposedly for humanity’s sake, Agate tells her she can't trust humans, and Betty has no loyalty for humans. Betty evidently corroborates “humanity can’t be trusted” by seeing into Frisk’s memories (stated in supplementary material) and seeing their Genocide Routes. However, she apparently doesn’t check anybody else, and, if anything, wouldn’t she trust Frisk more for those routes if she hates monsters so much?

What Betty Should Have Done

If Betty were smart, she’d act like Batman. Batman is aware Superman is nigh-invulnerable, super strong, and has quite a lot of useful powers. Were Superman to turn evil for some reason, he would be a massive threat to other superheroes and perhaps all of humanity. Yet, Batman tempers his distrust/caution with evidence: Superman is very morally principled and (unlike some other superheroes) never kills.

So, rather than attacking, trapping, or disabling Superman immediately because he could pose a threat, or even just being mean to him, he acts friendly (by Batman standards) and secretly has a plan to take him down if necessary.

If Betty believes a civilization where monsters and humans live together is “a time bomb waiting to go off”, why not disarm the bomb? Wouldn’t it fall within her interests to solve inter-species conflict as much as possible, delay it as long as possible if diplomacy can’t solve it completely, and develop (proportionate) monster-killing plans in case of emergency? Even separating monster society from human society (which, by the way, would deprive humanity of monsters’ benefits) would be a better plan than all that murder.

Why Didn't She Do It?

The most likely cause for Betty’s irrational and contradictory behavior is: she’s an impatient, short-sighted, and probably also lonely species-ist who fears and distrust monsters for no good reason, wants to make her species-ist mother happy, and she doesn't consider that her creator or she herself could be coming to the wrong conclusions (e.g., checking Frisk but not anyone else afterwards). (Note that Betty, though not human, is still a child. It’s plausible she didn’t think this through.)

As far as can be inferred from the supplementary material; it doesn't have any dialogue or explanation. The interpretation was based on how TVtropes described it. ↩︎

In GlitchTale, it’s specifically stated that Asgore killed the seven fallen humans, who were all kids. Jessica Grey later visits him in prison; apparently he was in prison for killing those kids. ↩︎

The similar of Frisk's theme

There's a lot of a similar of Frisk's theme and personalities.

1.) Frisk's theme songs

According of the theory, Frisk is a main character of the game Undertale and for the others they're make another Undertale AU (alternate universe). The Frisk's theme songs is "Once Upon a Time". This theme songs was similar like other AU's.

2.) Frisk's battle theme

In the battle event, Frisk's battle theme has only in Glitchtale and Underverse/Xtale. Glitchtale Frisk's theme is "Bring It On" by nyxtheshield and Xtale Frisk's theme is "DUPLICITY" by nyxtheshield. The similar of those themes are the tempo of "Bring It On" at "DUPLICITY" songs. These songs was very similar to hear because of the tempo.

3.) Frisk's genocide theme

At genocide event, Frisk was only has mode of genocide when they're open their eyes. For example, Glitchtale Frisk's genocide theme is "True LOVE" by nyxtheshield. At Glitchtale season 2 episode 4 LOVE part 2 Glitchtale Frisk's eye was open because they gain LOVE so much until the LV turn into 19 in their fight against Bete Noire. And then for Xtale Frisk's genocide theme is "GENOCIDE" by nyxtheshield. At Underverse Origins "Xtale IV : Muffet" Xtale Frisk's eye was open because the overwrite by XGaster in order to make a genocide timeline. For the similar is Frisk's personality was not only good humankind but inside of their behavior is genocide power.

That's all of the theory about Frisk's theme but it was very similar of them and also i'm very appreaciate it.

My Review For Glitchtale Season 1!

Hello Everyone! Today, I am going to share my thoughts on Glitchtale, made by one of my favorite animators, Camila Cuevas. So, for Season 1, It looks well made although quite simple. I also love Episode 1: Megalomaniac (Reanimated), huge improvements. Episode 1 was quite cool and had a good intro to the start of Glitchtale. Then, There was Episode 2: Yet Darker. The part where Sans absorbed Frisk's soul and battled Gaster was an awesome battle! And don't get me started with the Glitchtale Sans theme, it was AMAZING! I love that song, it was like a megalomania remix but better! Next of all, would be Episode 3: Determination. The fight between Sans, Frisk, and Flowey versus Chara was cool. Following Episode 4: Your Best Friend, I like how Gaster came back and help them fight Chara but what I suggest is not to put Gaster's health that high which is seen when he got hit and endured 663870 DMG because it would make Gaster overpowered. Last of all, Episode 5: Continue. The battle between Chara and Asriel was sick and I love that hope song. Again, one of my favorite songs in my time of being an undertale fan. When frisk destroyed the reset button, I have nothing to say about that :/. Anyways, that is my review of Glitchtale Season 1 and I hope Camila Cuevas sees this. Thank you. Subscribe to Camila Cuevas on youtube! She makes amazing animations. :D

My Thoughts on the last episode of Glitchtale

Okay... So I'm not gonna beat around the bush this is my least favorite episode of season 2... Now hang with me here I still like some parts which I will talk about its just I want to say that before you go keyboard warrior sytle on me. So I like the talking part or plot part alot( It was the part that hit me with feels the hardest by far) the talk with papyrus and gaster made me cry and the talk between asriel and asgore was heart warming, also in that scene it shows a few wizard that are gonna be in the presequel!

The animation was good for the most part. the battle scene was were most the errors were but we all make mess up sometimes.Like there is the part where frisk fell from the cliff they just got sent into,but when bete attacks from the sky the GIANT cliff is gone. the part were bete through frisk into into air with kuma look rushed. for one the angle she through frisk was not the direction she jump at,then suddenly they are by frisk, no transiton at all. Asriel's soul getting took away was also predictable and felt nothing towards it, unlike sans with was built up and unexpected. Asriels was predictable for me the moment he picket up the heart locket, sure we know it's not Chara's but from the genocide route we know it has 99 defense leading me to think asriel was bout to go find frisk and "help" them.

My favorite part of the episode was when frisk went lvl 19 and start moping the floor with bete.though the explosion did NOTHING to her which was confusing to me that crap wass bigger then undynes!

I was desippoint by how predictable it was, sure it's cool Sans is back, but I think it be better if the guy was dead so more characters could have the spotlight. He was through the entirety of season 1 and episode 1 and 2 of season 2 and is showing inportance still mainly in episode 3. The Love clitche was not the best way to end a episode consider all we had plot twist for last for 4 episodes ( Love part 2 minus well be 2 episode)

I'll be honest, this episode show have been delay a bit longer and it wouldn't have been as bad. I know this is Camilas first story she has done by herself (Beside help from Veir) and I know she was trying her hardest so I can except that, but she shouldn't have built up has much hype because how hard it fell

I still like glitchtale and hyped that the next episode will be shorter and HOPEFULLY will get better! Glitchtale is owned by @camilaart

[driftionarchive]

So I had a “Empty Box” Assignment in Art class which I had to draw something in the box, coming out of the box or looking in the box?… Well I decided to make Jessica Grey from Glitchtale (my favorite character)  looking into the box from a scene from episode 4 (LOVE part 1) I hope this is good enough for the savage queen Cami …

GlitchTale: Revived Sans Behavior (Part 1)

Contains spoilers. Made prior to watching "My Promise", Season 2, Episode 5.

Part 1→ Part 2 → Part 3

In the GlitchTale episode “Love”, Betty revives Sans from a SOUL using the hate substance. Sans attacks Frisk, seemingly to kill, and in all probability is filled with hate for Frisk. When Papyrus shows up, Sans changes both his targets and his tactics.

When fighting Frisk in the first GlitchTale video, he uses four Gaster Blasters at a time. In “Love”, to fight Frisk he uses five Gaster Blasters. However, with Papyrus, he uses only two.

Sans also attacks Papyrus using a bone with a pointed end as a held weapon. In both Undertale and GlitchTale, this sort of attack has never been shown before: indeed, it’s possible Sans has never used this type of attack before. Furthermore, Papyrus is a skeleton: logically, piercing attacks would not work well.

Though a dirty cheater, Sans also doesn't use dirty cheater tactics when fighting Papryus. Given he attacks between turns in-games by targeting the interface buttons, it’s in-character to him to interrupt Papyrus’ and Frisk’s conversation with an attack, but he doesn’t do this.

As Sans can explicitly teleport in GlitchTale, he could easily teleport behind Papyrus and blast him point-blank.1 As his KR bonus might not be useful against Papyrus (see below), this tactic seems especially useful, but Sans doesn’t even try it.

Gaster Blasters aside, Sans only deals one point of damage (per frame of attack), so KR from his attacks are his primary way of inflicting damage. Assuming KR damage is proportionate to LV or only works on people with high LV, Sans’ KR effect wouldn’t work well on Papyrus, (if at all) because Papyrus’ LV is much lower than Frisk’s at this point.

There’s also the matter of Papyrus having much higher HP than Frisk. If one assumes Sans’ Gaster Blasters are not simply one-hit KOs, but deal 92 damage per blast (the human’s maximum HP at LV 19 is 92), and Papyrus has 680 HP, then inflicting 92 damage is only ~13.5 of Papyrus's total health. One blast is not as big a deal to Papyrus as for Frisk.

One should note the content of Sans’ dialogue to Papyrus, and the fact he’s talking in-battle at all. In his Genocide Route battle, Sans talks a lot, but the attitude and subject of his dialogue there is very different from his dialogue to Papyrus here. Furthermore, during both “Megalomaniac” (the first episode of GlitchTale) and “Love”, he doesn’t talk to Frisk in-battle.

It’s clear he’s treating Papyrus differently than Frisk. That Papyrus outright asks him “do you remember me?” sounds socially oblivious: of course Sans does.

In fact, he's used this tactic before on Gaster in "Yet Darker" (Season 2, episode 1). (at 4:15 in the video, to be specific) While their fighting styles are different, if Gaster and Papyrus are the same kind of monster, then effective tactics against them may overlap. Perhaps Sans doesn't use this tactic frequently when fighting humans because humans have hateful intent bonuses against monsters and generally attack at close range. ↩︎

[argentdandelion]

GlitchTale: Revived Sans Behavior (Part 2)

(Contains spoilers. Made prior to watching "My Promise".)

Part 1→ Part 2 → Part 3

In “Love” (Season 2 Episode 4 of GlitchTale), Betty uses the hate substance to revive Sans from a SOUL to fight Frisk. When Papyrus shows up, Sans changes targets, fighting him instead while talking to him.

Sans' combat tactics (see previous post) are much less effective than his tactics against Frisk. The simplest explanation as to why his tactics are so much less effective is that he, in fact, doesn't want to kill Papyrus. (After all, wouldn't that be really out of character of him?)

One might blame the hate substance. Logically, the hate substance would make him hate whatever his target was, including Papyrus, up to the point of killing the target. But that’s not necessarily the case. It could be that he’s filled with hate, but not for something specific: it’s up to his own mind to provide a specific reason for his strong emotions. After all, in Season 1 Chara was motivated to punish Frisk for doing the Genocide Route/thinking they're above consequences, rather than being mindlessly destructive. 1

When he sees Papyrus, his dialogue would suggest he does not hate Papyrus:

Papyrus: “I know you're there Sans[.] I won't fight you...no matter how many times you attack me[...]I won't fight back[.]” Sans: “If you only defend yourself...you'll only end up getting killed. So I don't get it...why won't you attack back!” Papyrus: "Because you're my brother...”

In his dialogue, he seems puzzled as to why Papyrus won't fight back. Notably, he says: “you’ll only end up getting killed” and not “I’ll kill you”. This makes it ambiguous whether he even wants to kill Papyrus.

So if Sans neither hates nor wants to kill Papyrus, why is he attacking Papyrus anyway?

It’s simple: he’s not using magic with the intent to cause harm, but as self-expression: either voluntarily or involuntarily. His attacks reflect his own negative feelings.

Monsters are at least capable of expressing themselves through magic.2 The evidence comes from a book in the Snowdin Librarby (see above) and in-battle evidence. One example is Papyrus making his “COOL DUDE” bone pattern and cool sunglasses-bone attack as a means of expressing himself to a particular end. Another example is Dogamy's dog-bark attack pattern changing if Dogaressa is killed: rather than his dog-attack emitting a ring of heart-bullets with some blue hearts, the dog attack looks sad and feebly emits only a single white heart. In neither context is the monster outright aggressive.

This self-expression through magic could very well be be done non-consciously. As Zarla-s points out, a particular pattern of crisscrossing tiny bones always shows up at a particular part of Papyrus’s battle, when he’s talking about Sans. The same pattern, plus a lot of taller bones, is also the first one Sans uses after his initial barrage. Zarla thus concludes:

"So if a monster’s attack pattern is a way to express their feelings… then that attack is each of them thinking about the other."

The attack patterns do cause damage, admittedly, but if Undyne’s training with Asgore and Papyrus3 is any indication, monsters may fight each other without malicious intent, or the pain of their bullets may not actually be intentional.4

If Sans is causing significant harm to Papyrus, it’s possible he doesn’t intend to kill him or foresee Papyrus may die from the attacks. (If Sans did hate Papyrus, his tactics would surely be more effective.)

So what does Sans hate, if it's not Papyrus? Based on his dialogue to Papyrus, it's more likely he hates one (or a combination) of three things: himself, his inability to understand Papyrus's refusal to fight back, or being unable to change Papyrus's fate of dying to the human.

Sans remembers the previous timeline, probably due to initiating a RESET himself with Frisk's SOUL. As that timeline was an aborted Genocide Route timeline, he may very well remember how Papryus died. Thus, a hatred related to Papyrus's Genocide Route death could come from concern for Papyrus's safety. Indeed, he might even hate his inability to protect his brother (in some way) more than Frisk.

Assuming monsters feel and interpret emotions similarly to humans, it may be similar to the phenomenon of misattribution of arousal. ↩︎

It's unclear whether it's "self-expression" like facial expressions, or something that requires conscious decisions or training, like art or dance. Of course, one's choice of art or dance may reflect one's emotions even if the purpose isn't emotional expression. ↩︎

The dialogue in the Undyne hangout doesn't explicitly say Undyne and Papyrus used to fight each other as part of training, merely that she "started teaching him how to cook". Undyne does say he's "pretty freaking tough", though, and it seems most probable she knows this from fighting him herself. ↩︎

One example: Vulkin's "healing lava". ↩︎
