Do you agree, /v/?

I've been trying to ignore this game for the longest, but I'm at my limit. Is it truly good, or is it some sort of fad people latch onto?

I preferred Splatoon personally. But Undertale is up there, so soft Yes.

>>323152006
Pirate it and make up your own mind.

>>323152006
It's a good game but it got way overhyped
Definitely worth playing, but don't go in expecting the second coming of christ

>>323152006
Not as good as the rabid fans would have you believe, not as bad as the rabid shitposters would have you believe. Worth a pirate at least.

>>323152006
>Is it truly good, or...
Play it. Form your own opinion.

>>323152006
if it wasn't so overhyped by tumblr /v/ would probably not shit on it constantly. It's pretty servicible as a game and has a fun story. Won't take longer than a couple of hours to beat so if it won't hurt to check it out

I hate both the autistic superfans and the autistic angry shitposters, and I liked the game and enjoyed discussion in the first few days after release.
Really I wish it hadn't gotten big, though it's good for Toby that it did so well.
I'd like to see what he ends up doing in the future. He's already said he's never doing Undertale 2 so that's out of the way.

>>323151932
No, I prefer games that dont look like cheap Chinese ripoffs of mother combined with a dose of faux-retro indie pixel shit
Just not my taste

>>323151932
yes, its actually that good.

everyone here is being contrarian just for the sake of trolling.

>>323153085
Or they got memed into thinking it's an SJW game coming to take away their values or whatever

>>323153232
>it's an SJW game
That's just ambiguous labeling tbqh Familie
It's not made by an SJW or supporting their agenda, its hast beloved nx them

>>323151932
it's a decent game but the dev is an enemy of gamergate and it has bullshit sjw themes in general

>>323154363
No it doesn't, please stop with this bullshit

>>323154452
2 canon homo pushes and several more ambiguous ones, need I say more?

>>323152006
its a bad ripoff of earthbound and shin megami tensei at the same time

make of that what you will

>>323154493
One of the homo pushes is comic relief though. What are the ambiguous ones then?

>>323154493
>need I say more?
No, you've already told us everything we need to hear.

>>323152006
Its incredibly overrated but still a cute little game.

Honestly given some things the fans say about it even I as someone who initially liked am now starting to hate it.
Its like ten times worse than the portal fandom.

>>323154493
Gay relationships aren't SJW
The guard one is a joke about bros
There aren't ambiguous ones either

>>323152163
>>323152047
>pirate
Isn't it $10?

>>323154654
Yes but the majority of /v/ are children to which that amount of money is a big commitment. It's easier to say "pirate it" from the get-go instead of getting into the buy debate for the 100th time.

>>323154493
>need I say more?
Yes. What's wrong with games having gay characters?

>>323154654
Doesn't change the fact that you should try before you buy

>>323152006
It's a good game with some innovative combat and save mechanics, the characters are funny, the story is nice and music is really good, but it's 8 hours long

>>323154654
Yeah. And? If you like it buy it and throw the dev ten bucks, if you don't like it you've only wasted your time and not your time and money.

>>323154740
Agenda pushing and politics in video games. Where have you been for the past year?

>>323154493
>muh gay characters
Gay characters are only shit when that's the only thing to their personality or they bring it up every 5 seconds
I'm tired of this shitty meme where if something has gays it's automatically SJW

>>323152006
It's pretty good. It's not fantastic, but it's good.

>>323154493
So Anime with lesbian couples is SJW?

Because that's what the couples are meant to be based off.

no, mgs v is the best of this year desu.

>>323154932
mgs v is shit, mate

>>323151932
At this point I feel like playing Undertale is not worth it, simple because there is no way it can live up to all the buzz about it.

Hey hey
Did you know that you could play through the game and not kill anything?
I know it is crazy huh? Total meta commentary about video games.
The game is totally subtle about it too. There is no way you would know this if there weren't a million articles about exactly this fact.
No sir.
Impossible.

>>323155260
What are you even talking about
The tagline is "the friendly RPG where nobody has to die"
Are you implying it was supposed to be hidden?
It's literally required to get the best ending, the game TELLS you to go do it after you complete the first run

it's a great game for what it is, but it's not GOTY

but of course, Yahtzee is one of those hacks whose shtick revolves around shitting on basically EVERY AAA game he comes into contact with while whining about the good old days from 10+ years ago.

>>323155341
I guess you never been to tumblr or anywhere else besides /v/.
Because that shit is ALL you see.
Tons of pages of people going on and on about how gamers are natural killers and Undertale is so deep for it.

Fuck my first run through the game was not killing anything that is how much the game was pushing it.
I am so fucking sick of it.

>>323151932
Of the games he listed, I agree. Xenoblade X is my personal GOTY though.

It's good in relation to it's direct peers similar to how *gasp* the 1st season of MLP:fim was good in relation to it's peers.

But then autism came and spread like wild fire and well...you know the rest.

You cunts. Yahtzee does it fucking ad hits. He's ordered too.

Want more proof? His 2014 GOTY was Bioshock, despite weeks of hate towards it. He does it on purpose so people come and watch and comment he's a stupid cunt. He doesn't do game reviews any more, he does entertainment. He does amusing shit, that's it. If you want a better review, go read Christian Gaming or SideArc or some other site.

Indeed it has. Though I have the pride of quitting at end of 2007 after joining in 2004. Quit until like 2011.

So I haven't wasted as much time as I would have.

I tried playing this game but the dialogue was horrid, I just couldnt continue. Anyone else feel this way?

Funny story, when I came back in 2011. I got banned first day back for "replying to teen thread". Some guy was spamming a virus/scam link and I replied "Nobody is falling for this shit". Didn't even know it was a 'teen thread'. I've been banned other times for replying to 'teen threads', so I think it was left up on purpose, maybe made by a mod.

I got a 7 day on /tg/ for posting a picture which 40k fans had hated and which had been ponified, I hadn't read the rules and didn't know MLP was banned everywhere.

That is literally the Undertale fandom.

>>323162527
Yeah but you are not supposed to.
Its a commentary on games and how shit they are.
I don't think the creator really hates games but that is his audience and that is how the vast majority of undertale fans and people in general understand the game.

>>323162694
You aren't "supposed' to play the game in any way
You'll play in 3 different ways if you want to see all the game's content

his goty was Bioshock Infinite last time

>>323162762
I don't give a fuck.
That is not what I am talking about.
I am saying the vast majority of people, who absolutely love and rave about the game, do so because they hate video games in general.

Doesn't have to include you or many people but if you ever have the chance to talk to a huge Undertale fan go talk to them and find out for yourself.

again the intention of the design and shit doesn't come into it. I am talking purely about the fans here.

Killing everything in the game is it's own playthrough option. You get your own cut-off story with your own ending. It isn't saying anything about other games in the process, neither explicitly stated or only implied.

>>323151932
i dont agree, the only thing that game has going for it is the music.
the writing and characters are complete shit
the mechanics are shallow and get stale

graphics are pretty irrelevant but its a signature of the game's overall quality, shit.

Fair enough. I haven't seen too much autism outside of /v/, but I assumed the contrary since it seems impossible to find someone on here that wouldn't encourage doing a Genocide playthrough.

>>323164332
And you perfectly understand the appeal of all the others?

Is it just me or some of the music in undertale takes inspiration from touhou? Like trumpets when you fight genocide undyne.

>>323164446
>you perfectly understand the appeal of all the others?
Autism is a Retard substitute since boards like /b/ and /v/ alike overused Retard so much that we need a word with actual medical-cred to upset each others feelings now.

Meme is for people that hate memes, and are actively overusing the word to make people sick and tired of hearing it.

Reddit and Tumblr are just ways of telling people with different opinion to get out of our hugbox.

Fag is just a way of greeting each other at this point.

And kuck is just the flavour of the month(year) buzzword that alternates every now and then to something else.

There, I just schooled you on how to talk on on 4chan. Use this newfound knowledge well anon.

>>323164538
Trumpets are a pretty standard instrument to use, especially when a composer is going for a heroic or triumphant theme.

>>323164259
not the only purpose, but quality determines if they are good graphics or not

>>323164749
Thank you meme professor. Any links to all the knowyourmeme articles you have written?

>>323165385
That quality can be anything relating to graphics, not just how much effort was put into making them pretty. That's why ASCII games exist and people don't care that it looks like ass as long as it conveys information necessary about the state of the game for the player to play effectively.

>>323165424
Don't thank me young man, thank the good people of 4chan for making the memes what they are today.

All of them.

>>323165769
consistency is a part of quality, consistency which undertale lacks.
some sprites have some shading, most have none.

>>323165915
That's still complaining about overall aesthetics and ignoring everything else, though.
