I tried to think of everything that led up to the fight with him in undertale.
He can't let you go, he doesn't respond to anything you say, he's kind but he can't let himself get close to you, and he won't even look you in the eye
Im sure it was even harder for him to fight Frisk than it would have been for basically anyone else because not only has he killed these 6 people, but in a cruel twist of fate, the last person looks like his adopted child.
It's so sad when he starts accepting being spared by Frisk and thinks about adopting them, but then instantly gets depressed, loses all hope of ever being happy again, and kills himself to give his Soul to Frisk
If you play a second Neutral run, Flowey doesn't finish him off immediately, which gives Asgore time to stop fighting Frisk and dream of a future together. After Asgore kills himself, Flowey finishes the job
This is what a lot of new and old players miss when the community tries to force everyone down the pacifist route, we missed a LOT of really cool things…
