Isn't the picture in the Video Game page for Determinator a big honking spoiler for Undertale?

^^ Not familiar with it but if so then yeah, we'd need to look for a replacement.

Just for the record, this was what it was. It absolutely is a major spoiler for Undertale (being the true final boss), so I dummied it out before the thread could be opened.

I'm not entirely convinced it illustrates very well, either.

Cannot think of a good replacement that wouldn't go into JAFAAC territory, so unless if someone can suggest one, BUPKIS.

Alas, I think I have to agree.

BUPKIS.

I'm not so sold on making this a BUPKIS page, but I'm fine with it not having a pic if we don't come up with anything.

Looking over the examples, maybe Galuf fighting Exdeath with 0 HP? Or Old Snake pulling himself through the microwave corridor again with an empty health bar? Anything that makes it obvious the character's health has been depleted and he's still going.

Unfortunately, I don't think I have a save near either of those points to screencap this myself.

I concur with Old Snake in the microwave chamber.

[up]x2 First one is also a spoiler.

I've gone ahead and removed the pic.

EDIT: Holy crap, that's a big pic.

Doesn't seem like a BUPKIS case, so I'll go with no pic instead since no replacements have been offered.

If we can't find a pic of the Old Snake suggestion, then I'm fine to leave this without a pic but not call it a BUPKIS page.

I'm working my way through FFV to get a picture of Galuf at 0 HP.

I'd argue that the fight itself isn't a spoiler. Mentioning he dies in the next scene as a consequence would be the spoiler.

Did an image search for the microwave tunnel scene, and found one!

Hmmmm...coupled with a good caption, I think that could work. Something like "All of this on 0 HP.", perhaps?

The thing with Snake is that I don't know how much it actually illustrates for people not familiar with it. Could also be considered a spoiler, considering how late it is.

Bump. Other thoughts or suggestions?

Fanart, but how about this?

Fancomic and a gif, but a still would be fine.

Not having time to go halfway through a JRPG to get a decent screenshot, I decided to do a couple "artist's renditions" of the scene from available sprites.
