    I watched them while I was still new, and man was Underverse an experience. "Why did that one puke ink?" "Why does he have tentacles?" "Why does that one have black stuff coming out of his eyes?" "Why does Frisk have a mustache?"
  • @jeuniverse8460
    Underfell is actually community share and not community owned. Vic still work on their Underfell.
  • @Blank-un3xz
    Fun Fact about Killer The player manipulated Sans code to make him say yes to join them Which made sans mentality drop and his code to a little wonky
  • @f4tal3ror98
    I’m sure someone’s already said this but imma say it too. Fatal has a copy & paste ability (that surprisingly was shown in Underverse). He never actually takes anyone out of their timeline, he copies their code and “pastes” it. Effectively making a double of that exact sans of which he proceeds to murder
  • As someone who was 8-9 at the height of Undertale’s popularity and have followed pretty much everything closely regarding it since, I can safely say I know way too much about fanmade AUs. I used to spend pretty much entire days just watching comic fandubs, watching animations, and playing bad roblox undertale RPG games.
  • @franns_trash
    i actually find interesting the fact that fatal error went for cross, because technically cross is a swap variant
  • @toastybun3285
    Also Error is nearsighted and needs glasses, which is why he prefers to fight with his strings. Just thought that it was an interesting fact to share.
  • @kattaplez721
    Minor detail that you've missed - Nightmare tends to have henchmen he can call upon, the most common one being Killer Sans. That's why in underverse Killer is always with him and following commands from nightmare. It's also why Killer 'seems' to just randomly appear out of nowhere. If you know the henchman stuff then Killer's appearance was expected. the other two most popular henchmen who may or may not appear in Underverse are: Horrortale Sans and Dustale Sans. These four characters (Nightmare, Killer, Horror and Dust) are usualy the 'bad guys' in quite a lot of multiverse stories. I also love reading the 'Nightmare and his henchmen' crack stuff as they are hilarious, they give major mha league of villains vibes. I especially love the 'Nightmare as the mom of the group' stuff
  • @philgaimz9847
    So there's a new episode of Underverse now and it actually had a few tiny pieces of lore. One is that apparently only versions of Sans who have experienced and remember a genocide run are able to see what happened to alternate timeline versions of themselves? I don't know why that's a necessary plot point but hey it's a thing. The other one is that Ink is apparently not able to feel physical pain I think. Also you know when I said that the idea of multiple multiverses won't come up again? Yeah I was wrong.
  • @evakazoo5790
    Crayon Queen the GOAT making three incredibly popular Sans-es they’re all so creative and cool And I’m still so amazed by the fandom and just how all these people were able to create a coherent multiverse canon like the outcode characters in particular being referenced in other works outside their own so recognizable and with such strong personalities like that’s just normal It’s super beautiful like once you create your own alternate universe you’re instantly included in this greater story that involves your characters and you as a creator like I don’t think any other fandom could do it like undertale
  • @TVR300
    16:15 X Gaster!!?? You think when twitter became X, X-Gaster was all like, "The X event has begun!"?
  • As someone who was part of this fandom from the very beginning, it is amazing to see how many people took the AUs and ran with it. To this very day AUs are being made of Undertale. I would like to think that I am very well traversed in the fandom, and I still haven't seen everything! Fatal was something I had never seen before Underverse! I guess I'm just happy to see that there are still other AUs out there to explore and discover.
  • @lolkickdude2692
    after being a fan of undertale for years now and being oceans deep into the fandom and au’s and all that, im just finding out geno’s origin story💀💀
  • @Xedramon
    This was a super wonderful video! You did a really great job of summarizing Fatal_Error's story and you've got a great sense of the main story beats :) Sorry for all the confusion haha, hopefully by the completion of the comic it'll all come together for ya'll! Thanks again for a cool video, take care!!
  • God, outcode characters are fun. I actually made one myself! Kinda... it's a bit more funky than just that, but yeah, that is very much a thing I did. Also (and I'm also going off of personal assumptions here just like you), Killer technically still belongs to the "Something New" timeline, so he isn't quite an outcode character, just one that happens to eff around and find out a lot all over the multiverse. Technically, any character from any AU or AT can become a multiversal traveler if given the proper push (read: if someone from another world or an outcode character pulls them out of their native world), Underverse season 1 was basically all about that with the different Sanses teaming up. To be an outcode, you have to not exactly belong to any timeline or universe that exists in the Undertale multiverse. This part is why my personal possible outcode is so complicated to talk about, but feel free to ask if you're curious.
  • @xXtha
    You are the first person I have ever seen correctly summarize Dreamtale's lore with almost no mistakes. Congratulations That being said, don't trust your comments about said Dreamtale lore though, I already saw someone tell you something incorrect LOL
  • @dummydolphin2918
    This explained so much, I was wondering why when Killer used telekinesis on Dream i saw an apple Lol.
  • @Loozer__
    Genuinely my favorite Need To Know channel lol.
  • Bro I almost never watch videos like this and find everything to be correct. I'm one of those people who walked into Underverse already knowing everything and more so I don't have the perspective of the people who were confused so this video may not have been for me but I absolutely enjoyed it nonetheless. You explained everything fantastic! Honestly the only thing I can really think of not being mentioned is some of the stuff with Epic and Cross, especially their AUs interacting. Though it's small and just funny side stuff, 0.6 sort of implied some of it may have actually happened? But really that's just such a minor thing, I just love this so much adfgsfdghsfg Oh! A fun fact as well, Fatal_Error's comic started long before people knew Error was Geno, which made more sense at the time. Error being Geno certainly complicated a lot of stories, though it's impossible to be an UTMV fan without loving some complexity lmao
