It's a $10 game that's better than almost every new release in 2015 that was initially priced at $15 or less without microtransactions.

Nothing has blown /v/ the fuck up so hard in recent history. The very mention of this game is liable to get at least 10 people a thread angry.

It's cute as fuck and more original than vast majority of games.

Despite being casual, people who actually enjoy games do enjoy Undertale.

It manages to get just the right amount of pretentiousness - it is neither cringy nor cynical.

>>324171815
The thing is that DmC was universally hated and sold poorly. People even got humor out of the whole edgelord "FUCK YOU" thing. Undertale got multiple awards, overtook MGSV on Metacritic for a significant period of time, and sold extremely well. /v/ is essentially just crying bitter tears about it.

An innocent child is subject to one of the worst fates imaginable and only because he wouldn't bend to pressure and do something he thought wasn't right.

And now he'll never grow up to be the handsome prince he was destined to be

And if you don't think that's the saddest shit then you must have no soul

>>324170618
It's an interesting if not 100% unique take on player responsibility and goads the uninitiated players into thinking too deeply into a fourth wall breaking plot.

The gameplay is fine, the music is great, the art is bad at almost every possible definition of the word outside of monster sprites mid-battle which are appealing on the eyes.

An interesting take on replay value by making the player feel bad about taking the middle road and simultaneously leading the player to completionism while also shaming the very concept of completionism.

Chara is an interesting concept, something akin of the "Father son and holy ghost" trinity of religious fundamentalism in that Chara is a character that existed in the game world, but is also a feeling, and is also us as well as a demon. I feel that a lot is lost in translation during the Genocide run, but the most understandable thing is that it mocks taking mercy on videogame characters and separates the player from the game, discouraging immersion or "good" playthroughs and encouraging evil playthroughs in games where it's available, like with morality systems, it's almost our "responsibility" to kill everything in the game.

Sans, however, on the completely opposite spectrum once again appeals to the uninitiated player by tugging at their heartstrings, while simultaneously being a kind of lukewarm half-aggressive sarcastic assface. Sans is easily one of the best indie characters ever written, while Toriel is easily one of the worst, but people forgive her because Goatmom.

I like it because you can kill most of the important characters. It's way more fun to do that than be friends with annoying retards.

>>324170618
It is a thoughtfully constructed labor of love that has everything in its place. If I were asked if I could remove one thing from the game to improve it, I would respond that it would have the opposite effect regardless of what that is. All of the elements, visual, audio, and interactive, support each other to create its overall experience.

AAA developers should study this, but not copy it. Unfortunately, I know for a fact that they'll do step 1 and skip all the others.

How so? I feel like the interactivity, music, and story all compliment each other, but outside of the Core, the game looks like complete and total shit. Not just graphics mind you, but art style choice as well: The game varies in quality to heavy degrees.

The only time the game doesn't look like a complete mess is in Battles, which, fortunately enough, most of the "New Home" section took place in, and New Home was MUCH better for it, otherwise it's just a gray Toriel's house. New Home blew me out of the water, but it wasn't because of the visuals, let me tell you that.

I can appreciate the meta writing of throwing the concepts of video game mechanics and shoving it in your face to show you how stupid you are for playing games instead of doing something more productive. but I just didn't enjoy the characters. I didn't the jokes about anime was funny. I didn't think the pokes at facebook social media sites and spaghetti was funny. so when it came to the end and say 'look at all the friends you made!' it just made me roll my eyes since I have no connection to any of these sprites.

>>324173532
There is a kind of theory for what attracts masses of kids, the so called "Autistic Fanbase."

The sonic franchise had that a long time ago, and people seem to agree that there is a kind of measurement to be placed on certain characters. "Just simple enough to have a foggy complexity" or something along the lines of that. Why Sonic and Shadow can be such likeable characters when normally, one or the other would seem cringey.

The same can be said with other things, like MLP. Just simple enough with a foggy complexity. Undertale hits all the walls perfectly, and can appeal to a VERY broad demographic. It just covers its tracks and builds more bridges with the replayability, completionism, and easter eggs to appeal to the EVER SO SLIGHTLY more hardcore.

The badass music is also a major draw to a lot of people.

>>324173532
Character-oriented, OC enabler media does that to people. See: sonic, homestuck, ponies, and so on.

>>324173638

>>324173979
I just feel that Toby went the extra mile with a lot of things. Easter Eggs, music, musical easter eggs, the completely missable arbitrary genocide mode, Gaster, characters that are less 2 dimensional than the graphics...

I just feel like the game didnt try hard enough in the graphics department, and that's saying a lot, because Indies ALREADY don't have to try for shit.

Near the ruins it tries to be like, faux 8-16 bit, for most of the game tried to be 16 bit, but the core has some early computer graphics that are like 32 bit and shit, the game is INCREDIBLY inconsistent with its art direction.

I usually like Pixel art, but Undertale really dropped the ball, picked it up, and dropped it again, sometimes it felt like it dropped the ball on my foot. The aesthetics dont remind me of Earthbound. Earthbound looked almost nothing like this outside of the character sprites.

That UNFORTUNATELY means that Sans is probably black due to relation to Papyrus, but I'm a lot less comfortable with Black Sans than I am with Black Papyrus.

>>324175273
This theory makes very little sense, though.

Earthbound sold like complete and total shit when it first came out. It was ignored or pushed away for being too weird.

It took earthbound like 10+ years after being released to become actually popular. I have no idea why or how this is, but it is.

Saying that we have to "defend" Undertale puts you in the "I'm on the higher ground believing that Undertale is trash" attitude and therefore impossible to argue with. But I might as well TRY.
Undertale's magic is bringing familiar stereotypes of people into the characters, making it easier to relate. Ex-tumblrites love Alphys because she has a reason for her inwardness that isn't just being super sensitive. People with depression love Papyrus because even when you do wrong, He still believes in you. Writers may enjoy Undyne being "A Mary Sue done right". Yes, she may be a perfect example of her personality type, she still has flaws that are unaddressed and the world only revolves around her as a 11th hour superpower.
The story is meant to be enjoyable by all ages, with the only times things get scary is Genocide Route and Photoshop Flowey. The former you have to have some inferring skill and therefore you must be old enough to swallow such.
The real problem is that the story is spoiled. The magic is gone now that everyone knows what's going to happen. So now no-one needs to play the game and can get the story from some wikia, and that just makes Undertale a walking simulator.
tl;dr: Story about friendship and love with likeable characters ruined by chatterboxes.

>>324175273
Because Earthbound is a bad game

>>324175293
Papyrus seems like your stereotypical spergy white kid from the suburbs.
I respect your headcanon, though :^)

>>324175583
You've never had that skinny tall black friend who constantly talks about Kingdom hearts and makes weird jokes?

Cause I've had like, two. Tall white kids that sperg out to the same degree are much more self aware and bashful about it, Papyrus pulls no punches.

Papyrus's autism is confident to the point of faux autism, and that my friend is not a very Caucasian trait.

Why do I have more connection to the characters in Earthbound, even though they almost never talk?
I had the same experience in Ico, I had a lot more affection for Yorda, even though there was a language barrier, but your actions would show your friendship rather then dialogue, which made the climax of the game a lot more impact.

There's the problem. A lot of the toriel art was made before Undertale was even finished.

Nowadays we have Homo Goat and Skelebros. It's a shame when and entire game has like 15 adult characters and the only 2 kid characters are the ones with half consistent porn.

Muffet is a good buffer in between high and low quality, but her art is strangely boring to me. Not sure why.

No way. Maybe from what you know. But there are a ton of black guys like Sans. Chill as fuck, kind of short and stocky and round. But loves cheesy puns. Hides his power level.

Actually, have you ever heard of the site Double Toasted? There's two black guys on there that's almost exactly like Sans and Papyrus. In both looks and personality. Martin Thomas being Sans. And Korey Coleman being Papyrus.

Martin loves making cheesy puns and he's super chill. And Korey has an inflated ego, unlimited ambition, he's loud and high-strung and impulsive. Except Korey is actually competent. Martin puts all his trust in Korey to make things happen, and just goes along with whatever Korey is doing. They've been friends for so long, that they're practically brothers.

It's creator really did think of alot of certain gameplay thing that actually overshoot Hideo Kojima himself like how Flowery will comment if you quit the game after you Mercy/Kill Toriel. Otherwise the shitty fanbase killed this thing faster than a Ubisoft game closing in on it's release date.

>Defend
Way to summon the biggest faggots possible with just the first word of the OP, because the people that actually feel compelled to defend a game in the face of people that didn't like it or are just being assholes for the EBIN LOLZ XDDD are just going to be way too obsessed. Like me.
Undertale's plot isn't particularly deep and definitely hinges on whether or not you like the characters, but at its most basic is a classic sort of tragedy. How anyone could fight Asriel and not be hit by a freight train of emotion when it becomes apparent that he's just some poor kid who misses his best friend is beyond me. Plus the whole angle on how things play out either optimistically or as a disaster depending on whether the player wants to come in and be a hero or is just playing to kill some shit is a good reconstruction of 'morality' in vidya.

But of course it's not like this post is going to change anybody's opinions, I just figured I'd waste my time typing it out so I can get my share of being called an autistic tumblrite despite only being the former.

Undertale has a perfect plot, anyone who dares to disagree obviously didn't play the game and is falseflagging. Toby Fox is a programmer GOD and the meta stuff he put in the game was NEVER done on any other game and is IMPOSSIBLE to be done on consoles.

I think Chara gets rid of everything, including humans.

>>324185972
Because the LOVE gives Chara the power to end the world, and the humans with it. Chara is a nasty little demon.

Not to mention, if you sell your soul, Chara reawakens after a pacifist run to kill everyone on the surface.

You can even convince em you're not gonna kill them and do it anyway.

I wish I wasn't such a cynical lonely asshole. perhaps then I could of sympathized with the characters in the game or the story. I really just couldn't give a shit.

>>324187580
That could make sense as to why the monsters receive a crude version of it while Flowriel was able to do it. The reason? He absorbed the soul of Chara, and Chara definitely had determination, which would linger on in his dust in some way shape or form.
Frisk also has determination, but he's opposite to Chara if you let him be.

What made Chara go bad though? That's what I want to know. Both Frisk and Chara presumably fell down because they didn't like something about their current life in the overworld (humans specifically for Chara).

>>324186969
>>324188121
Given that Chara herself doesn't know how or why she reincarnated, I think there's just
no explanation for it.

If I have the save-point in the Throne Room on Pure Pacifict run, but beat the game and go back to the save screen, I was told I missed my opportunity to go backwards and see the epiologue stuff. Is that true?

What do the two keys in Asgore's home do?

If people ask if games can be art, Undertale will be the only true example that games are art, and not any game but undertale by itself. Undertale Is Art, it listens to the real gamer audience by having rich diverse characters, touches homosexuality topics that so far nobody dared to and bring a spectacular plot on why violence is never the answer no matter how threatening others are to you, this game made me feel more open minded to immigrants, transgenders and minorities. Fuck Mother games, they are nothing when comparing it with Undertale. Undertale is what Mother should've been if it worried about story rather than obsolete graphics

GRRRR WHY DO PEOPLE CARE ABOUT THINGS I DON'T CARE ABOUT I DON'T GET IT RAAAARGH

The world doesn't revolve around you or what you like, child.

>>324189962
This is the most /pol/ post I have ever seen in my life.

Why do people overplay the gay characters in Undertale so much, anyways? They're mostly played for laughs. It's never portrayed as "YOU SHOULD BE TOLERANT AND ACCEPTING OF THESE LIFESTYLES", it's always "look how fucking weird and funny these monsters are". The gay fish threw her gay dinosaur girlfriend into a fucking garbage can, for fuck's sake.

You know, pretending there's nothing more to it doesn't make it true.
Present any narrative in that manner and you can make it look stupid and basic.

>>324190286
even the other filler shit isn't all that surprising or crazy. The story is pretty basic and boring.

>>324190253
Because people are absolutely obsessed with the idea that liberals are totally pushing gays on everyone so they point out every single gay character in media and go "LOOK AT THIS SJW GAY AGENDA SHIT"

Degeneracy portrayed in a normal light can be more persuasive to unshaped minds than an explicit invocation towards tolerance and diversity. If you explicitly ram something home then you are merely promoting its acceptability. By just showing sexual degeneracy in the background, without comment, then it becomes a normal part of life, unworthy even of comment.

I'll probably get bashed to fuck for this, but here goes. I think AAA's should work on a smaller scale, at least in the vein of a JRPG style game. Imagine a robust, talented team taking on a game that would put story and game play over visual representation. I would love to have another Final Fantasy V1 or Grandia to savor. Because let's face it, these mutil-million game budgets are cranking out pure shit, pound for pound. There's a gem here or there, but more often than not recent AAA titles have been shit. We shit on Indie's a lot, but I think there's vast room for improvement if more talented teams started making them as opposed to the 1 man/2 man/6 hipsters that are shitting the industry up and getting praised for it.

There were dozens of threads defending it saying that it was a good game but a bad DmC game (this makes no sense), or that it was a good games and "haters" just hated the story.

The problem I had with Undertale was that it was more like Underwhelmingtale sorry . I played it day one, and I liked it a lot, but the problem I had with it from the beginning was that it could've been so much more.
Everything that is there is perfect, but everybody jerking themselves off over this game forgot that there while what was there worked and was good, the game itself never came together to really become an amazing experience imo.
The world is flat and boring. It's populated by neat characters, it has some neat lore and ideas behind how magic and souls work, but all that you see of it is 1 barebones town and just a long march along a staight line. Seriously unless that boat guy gives everyone rides all the time, there was no way to get anywhere. Where does anyone live? The castle is only connected to the core and that's only connected to the waterfall which etc etc. It's a fucking line. There's like 3 places in the whole game where it loops back on itself physically instead of with elevators or the boat guy.
The gameplay could've definitely benefited from some more depth. While the basic combat was iterated upon neatly, equipment was basically pointless and the conversation mechanic was poorly handled. Getting the best ending your first time is the standard run. When I played the demo and it touted itself as an RPG, I thought that the conversation system would be like the magic in other RPGs. You would have to spec into specific trees of different speech types and they would only be effective on certain foes. But instead the game offers you the ability to spare anyone through some trial and error. No forethought or strategy is needed when you want to spare a foe. You can't piss them off or not have learned the right skill, so sparing is trivial and the standard for the game, making the "best ending" feel really hollow and cheap to me because you don't have to work for it at all.
But furries and feelsbait, so it's GOAT best game ever.

that's pretty fair criticism. I think even die hard fans would agree. I don't know why but these undertale threads really tick me off, and I even like the game to an extent but it's frustrating that I can't enjoy the game as much as everyone else can.

Yeah.
I liked the threads on day one, but after the first week I was hoping it'd just FotM itself out.
I really liked the game when it first came out, and even with those flaws I was willing to forgive it and say it was a good underrated little gem.
Hell if it was just popular I would say that it's still a really good game.

But with everyone saying that it's the perfect game, every reviewer and wannabe academic touting other games as "Undertale inspired" or saying that Undertale "impacted the medium", I want to scream.
Undertale is the culmination of various trends in the gaming scene brought together. It shot for a Mother-like sense of humor and storyline with barebones danmaku gameplay and some 4th wall breaking meta humor that was always a popular idea in the indie scene.

Especially that fucking last part. Critics keep acting like Undertale invented 4th wall humor and are calling Pony Island and some new indies "Undertale inspired', but EVERYTHING it did was done before by other indies in the same scene.
Oneshot used the save mechanic as a story element, OFF had the whole protagonist with their own goals thing and along with Middens did the whole "world is fucked because you played it like a normal video game" thing before Undertale's Genocide run. Middens especially had basically the EXACT SAME FUCKING MESSAGE: you would kill everyone just because you could, even though you didn't have to.
Is Undertale bad because it didn't invent all of these ideas first? Hell no. They're not even bad additions to the game itself, they're great in the game.

But once again game critics and """"intellectuals"""" show that they know nothing about the industry or where its trends come from, only bothering to jerk themselves off over what their little clique has already decided is the next big thing.

It's a good game, it really is. But it's not THIS FUCKING GOOD.

If Undertale is such a bad game, then please do name a better title from 2015.

Your answer will only be valid, though, if it doesn't share a single flaw with Undertale. For example, the game can't have bad graphics, it can't have any story beyond the bare context, it can't have talking animals, it can't be casual, it can't have memes, and it cannot be anti-consumer in any way (no DLC, no DRM, no microtransactions, no grinding to pad out the gameplay)

I hear alot of people hate Undertale, and some of them have legit grievances, but the others are just following the meme train.

No sir.

It falls under several categories: ironically bad graphics, too casual, and anti-consumer (console DRM)

So it's not really worth the praise.

I like more though on how he explains how the game challenges the expectations surrounding an RPG setting, even down to the tutorial section.
And he is right. There is no incentive for completing genocide. Note, I said completing. You can still have your Sans fight and get out of Genocide.

Are we ever going to stop shitposting about Undertale? I'm pretty sure everyone here has explained why they like/hate it at this point.

>>324194946
Wait, are there really retards referring to 4th wall breaking as Undertale inspired? I refuse to believe that people can really be that fucking ignorant, but I've been wrong before.

Beat it earlier with my sister, it was alright, i liked all the fourth wall breaks at the end but it got a little too anime-y with the end of the Flowey fight.

An oldfag stopped coming to 4chan so he could make a video game.
He made it.
4chan is populated by newfags who arbitrarily hate everything that even slightly references pop culture.

Also the game is a somewhat disguised walking simulator with numerous instances of 8-bit Atari game mechanics.

>>324197253
You could probably call most games 'disguised walking simulators' by your logic.
