10 Bad Video Game Endings That Are Harder To Get Than Good Ones

1. Genocide Route - Undertale

Undertale's genocide route is one of the most soul-crushing experiences the game has to offer. First, because it requires you to slaughter all of your friends. Second, because it's significantly harder to beat than the pacifist route.

While playing as a good person consists mostly of fighting bosses at the end of each location, the genocide route requires you to grind in every single location on top of that to ensure you've killed every single monster in the underground.

On top of that, fighting the bosses becomes significantly harder, as the genocide route ends with the infamous duel with Sans, which is considered one of the hardest video game fights of all time.

Sans will definitely make you regret ever raising your hand on the game's NPCs (if having to grind them to extinction somehow hasn't done it already). However, your only reward for defeating him is a bleak bad ending where everyone is dead and you're painted as a monster.

Well, let's be real, you kind of have to be one to attempt the genocide route. A horrible, masochistic monster.
