Doing my first genocide run.. Am I supposed to instant kill certain bosses? Because so far it's happened for Toriel (makes sense), Muffet, and Mettaton NEO.I was expecting a challenge, like I had with Undyne, but this just seems weird.

Genocide isn't about giving you a challenge. If you've gotten to NEO, then you might have picked up on some anti-completionist tones.

It doesn't assume you're doing what you are because you're evil, but that you're a powerplayer. You're grinding the soul out of the game; it only makes sense for nearly everything in it to be a pushover.

Undyne the Undying is the biggest nod to the villainous role that your playing habit puts you in, in the game's eyes, but the rest is about that sense of soullessness.

What are you talking about Anon? Sans is the weakest character in the entire game, he's an instakill and can only deal 1 hp per hit

This

People that whine about Sans being hard never played a real hard game. Even Cave Story Hell level was harder, and as difficult as that is, it's super easy after like the 20th try

Sans is definitely hard, but my gripe is that people call him hard for the wrong reasons. He's beaten by memorisation and repetition, which is the opposite of how a real challenge is beaten. None of your skills are tested other than how much of his moves you've committed to muscle memory.

I consider his fight thematic more than anything, even if I do enjoy the rush of trying to survive his attacks.

Sans doesn't try to put up a "real" fight, he only wants to give you a bad time, since he knows it's impossible to defeat you.

However if he succeeds in being a massive dickbag, he could make you give up, which is exactly what he's trying to do.
