Introduction

Welcome, whoever you are.
Have you ever come across an empty hall that fills you with dread as the void fills the room slowly crawling until there is nothing left behind? Yeah, me too. That's what I encountered today by playing Offline because my cellular data is completely dead. What a bad day.


Description

Clearly, the world is fucked up by now.
As you can see, this is the Judgement Hall. It doesn't seem much of a difference, rather than the overpopulating void and the disappearance of Sans' door-frame tile that is on top of the last 3 pillars for some reason. But the point still stands, something strange is happening in this place. Not a lot can be described, other than the silhouette of the Vessel and of course, the environment. But I can feel the Vessel's walk speed is gradually slowing down. You can't even sprint, which makes it really irritating. 
EDIT: Almost forgot to describe about the building here, but basically, there is no entrance, no save point, but there is an exit. And I got to this place out of the blue by just warping to Judgement Hall.

The worst thing is, the menu also got fucked up for some reason.


There is no name, there is no LV, there is no HP, and there is no G. It may seem like it doesn't show the battle sprite either, but it actually does, sort of. It still shows the sprite, but in a dark silhouette. It only shows the heart locket with whatever soul color you picked. By the way, the vessel I am currently using is Harlow.
EDIT: I just noticed about the purple soul in my LV stat, what the hell???



Opening up the items, everything I have ever collected is gone! Reduced to atoms! There are some small squares all around the menu, but I am guessing that those are the icons for all the item names. Also, clicking the DATA.STRUCTURE whatever crashes the game. Can't have shit in Detroid. There used to be the weapon/armor menu and the bag menu but you guessed it! It's gone.


Moving on to the STAT menu, it's not that bad! It's just that every STAT you wished to see is all GONE! Except for the LV, EXP, KILLS, and your name. (Thank god I can see my beautiful name for yet another time.) You'll notice that the EXP and KILLS shows infinite instead of numbers, which is surprisingly amazing but you can only see this phenomenon in here. Though, you'll also notice that there are some stats that has an empty value, or even, missing. The missing stat names are randomized, but all their values is empty.  (Except for those 4 I mentioned before.)


The CELL menu, probably the most useful menu I've ever used, died out like this. The name of the AREA is completely replaced by an error message that tells me to restart the game, and the TIME is stuck at 666 minutes and 0 second as if the time was stopped by some high tech magician. Oh and, the whole menu is all blank with the question mark logos. Clicking on all of them does nothing. Although, I can't pick the menu that the purple soul is sitting on. I mean, I did not enable the two-players mode at all, so why would this soul exists in the first place?? Quite odd, but I feel like someone is always with us in this game, even when it's offline. But hey, that's just a theory!

EDIT: There are some cases that one of the menu might crash your game.

EDIT 2: There is a chance that instead of displaying the question mark, it shows an exclamation mark. If you see that menu, then do NOT click it. It will reset your entire progress. Seriously.

After messing with the menu, I then continue my journey to the hall, and I can tell you that it's a looooong way to get there. Accompanied with the slow movement, this surely is the best experience I've ever had! This made me really frustrated, of course. I was seconds away from quitting the game until I saw a dark figure that kinda resembles Harlow, alongside with the yellow-ish orange outline. That piqued by interest, of course! So I tried to approach him but suddenly, the game became pitch black, nothing to see. Just wind noises. It escalated for a minute, later then followed by a battle that starts out of nowhere. (See here.)


(That Wiki!Harlow Sans text is not actually there. And this was my 200th-ish attempt of encountering him.)]

Conclusion

The battle was strange as it is the only encounter with a hyper-realistic background and no textbox. There's no music playing during the battle, just some wind noises. That's why I crank up this song while having the battle. I mean come on, it does looks exactly the same as Wiki!Sans style thingy! So it's kind of fitting, right? 

Oh and, he is referred as Him. His name is unknown, though. 

You can encounter him by warping to Judgement Hall several times until you got lucky, it works both Online and Offline mode of the game! You really need some skills because his attacks are really unpredictable.

But hey, that's all for today! 
I don't want to spoil much of this creature. 
Since it's better to just feel the experience by yourself, you know? 

EDIT: There ain't no day without some art, you know? So hey, here we go:
