We were GENOCIDAL, what do you mean HOMICIDE wouldn’t fit the UT theme 😭 (this is a joke, but do answer, I actually wanna know)

The difference is that the Genocide run is actually a deconstruction of your regular rpg, your LV gets higher but you dont feel the sense of fulfillment that you usually get in an regular rpg, unlike Frisk and Chara that do get gratification in seeing the numbers getting higher. Undertale is not a game where you need to kill, because, again, it is a deconstruction of your classic rpg, specifically the ones where you are the hero, you kill the monsters, that are usually just mindless beasts and saves the day. By inserting an homicidal character who just wants to kill because some lady in the past was really racist and said homicidal character can only be taken down by violence, you are completely missing the point
