Alright so! MAJOR SPOILERS (as we will be starting from the start of gathering clues all the way to the latest) but allow me to help guide with the undeniable fact that we all have a hard time trying to find all the clues and keep getting the obsessive Doctor Rose in our ass (well for me personally...). Also that I rejoiced tears of pure happiness when I finally didn't have to see Doctor Rose's stupid mask.
NOTE: Important thing to mention is that I was playing in Asriel's romantic route, therefore some of my decisions are based on that. If you either play a different RO's route or the friendship route, do try to experiment around for the RO's romantic route and maybe investigate the different clues.
Chapter 3
- During the gunshoot scene, move to go to the window.
- Go to the man that's kneeling to comfort him.
- When you have time before you go to work, go visit Daisy.
- Then, go treat yourself for a nice lunch.
Chapter 4
- Go for a run at night time.
- Then, linger and assess.
- Visit the swan park during the "date" or maybe guide segment (I dunno if it's available for all since I'm playing exclusively for Asriel but I assume it has to be!)
Chapter 5
- THIS IS IMPORTANT! Buy a new pillow so Gaster won't kill your ass.
- Then relax at home, also VERY IMPORTANT as it unlocks clues that Mr. Scott can give us.
- Decide to check up on him, poor man is not only feeding us information but also going through grief.
- This segment is where you continuously pry for information, and since Gaster won't woop yo ass you'll get to live another day and NOT experience Bad Ending 3 (am I still bitter?? Hell yes!)
Chapter 6
- I'm not sure if this is necessary (since I'm on the Asriel route) but since this connects to another key part, if Asriel invites you to go to the movies with him and Chara, go so you can be acquainted with Chara early on. (Again, I'm not sure if this is exclusive or not but I have died like... more than 3 times at this point from either GASTER or DOCTOR FUCKING ROSE so I am traumatized.)
- Also if you're on that route, just praise the chocolate lords so Chara be like "Yes, this is my best friend/partner, Asriel go find your own".
- Stay when you find out that the Black Swan is not technically short staffed.
- When Chara and Asriel ask you about your brother, answer honestly.
- When they ask if they could help you, choose to leave with them.
- AND IF YOU GET THE MEMORY OF LAWRENCE AT THE ENDING OF CHAPTER 6, CONGRATS YOU ARE FREE FROM THE HELL OF EITHER DYING BY DOCTOR ROSE OR SOME OTHER SICK BASTARD! HALLELUJAH!
Chapter 7
- If done properly, you should have the option to check on Mr. Scott's apartment before or after (if not, go back to the beginning or as where I did, whether you want a friendship or romantic route) for me I chose before the morning run.
- Step inside and investigate wherein you will meet with Edward.
- Upon entering, you will try to connect the clues but choose the "maybe they're all connected" option.
- Now here you'll meet Edward wherein you will lie and butter up to him (in the first choice to get him to be interested in you) so choose to call them to wait. I can provide a detail explanation but if you wanna try by yourself, just know that Edward apparently wants lies where Mr. Scott actually liked him even though it was obvious he hated him and he'll open up about the Dreamless Beast.
- Here is a more condensed guide if you just don't want to take chances: Compliment watch, father must be proud, Mr. Scott must have adored you, and Mr. Scott looking forward to your visits.
- AND FINALLY! If you were able to get the ending where you were able to ask "someone" (I'm not sure if it's automatically Asriel or if it can be anyone else) for help then congrats amigo! You passed the death sequences!!
I am finally free... I hope this helped ya'll! And also I just wanted to say HOLY FUCK THAT WAS INTENSE I ABSOLUTELY ADORED IT!!!
NOTE: I think a sign that says that you're on the Doctor Rose Bastard Bad Ending is when you recieve a bouquet of yellow roses by your door coupled with a cheesy poem (from my experience). If that happens, quickly go back on your save file annd go. I think the ways you can trigger it (in my experience) is if you set your favorite flower as yellow roses, painting a picture of your yellow roses, and instead of going to the swan park, you go to another dessert shop and witness the crime scene of Doctor Rose Bastard. Maybe that's why he's so obsessed with you?
Either way, as long as you avoid them, maybe you won't get his bad endings when you get incomplete clues or not enough affection with your intended RO's. Goodluck, soldiers o7
