>sans
>best boss fight of the year

His character progression was neat, but I don't think a trial and error boss fight is worth "best of the year" at all. I honestly enjoyed Undying's much more. Sure he had a lot of gimmicks, but say what you will, the progression towards them is really out of nowhere. Even if it does fit the theme of someone who wants to stop the player at all costs, and is built to take advantage of a trial and error playstyle, it just feels cheap, and leaves a bad taste in my mouth. It's like people who call Asriel, a boss where dying has next to no consequence other than "feels", a great boss.

I know a lot of people will say "but that's the point of the fight", and that's fair enough, but the best boss fight of the year should win it's award because of the boss fight itself, not what it represents. For me, at least. I think Bloodborne's Ludwig, the Holy Blade is much better.

Then again, this is bait, so what do I know, right.

You know. As much as Undertale is over rated beyond belief and not even close to being the game of the year. I can agree that Sans is the best boss fight of the year (so far, anyways)

It's the one "X of The Year" award that game deserves.

It's a shitty way to run a boss fight, it should build up to something, but nothing in Undertale ever does gameplay wise.
That's why it's a shitty game.
Not to say it's bad, it's just a shitty GAME.

>>318390064
The AAA set the bar too low, so what Undertale did seems a little more impressive that it actually is. Nothing too hard to understand
/v/ most talked/hyped games this year were three trashy "le open world" paddingfests that leave proper, well-thought level design at the door, really says a lot about the state of the industry and this board.
>>
>>318391491
I'd say this is a case of "there wasn't much better to pick from". Like the year S1 of TWD came out, that was a pretty trash year for gaming and at least TWD gave a consistently enjoyable experience. My other contenders are Bloodborne and MH4U. Witcher 3 was good too but kind of a letdown.
>>
>>318390720
That's the intro of the fight and takes 3 seconds to get past. It's only to put the player on their toes. The actual fight afterwards has legitimately no trial and error, just fast reaction times.

Why are you comparing games or saying games are better than games that are nothing alike and don't even attract the same audience, senpai?

MGS is a stealth game. It isn't a good 2D RPG.
SMM is a platformer/editor. It isn't a good 2D RPG.
Undertale is a 2D RPG. It isn't a good stealth game or a platformer/editor.
>>
>>318391779
I guess you're entitled to that opinion but you're a fucktard for trying to pretend like yours is the one that matters. MGS5 was ultimately a hollow experience for me and SMM is just something I play with friends for fun.

GOTY for me is something that leaves a lasting impression, something I think about long after release.

You're correct, there were approximately two thousands games released this year.

Thus, 200 games released this year were more interesting than Undertale.

Undertale is better than Fallout 4, that I won't debate. If you're asking for better games to spend your money on in the month of September, there's Super Mario Maker and MGS 5, both better games than Undertale, but I don't see any reason why you wouldn't want to buy all three. The three of them are good games.
>>
>>318392189
Flowey's bossfight was ridiculously easy and scripted so that you could never lose, even when you die. It's only the illusion that it's hard or challenging because it's very subtle in the background to work in the player's favor. It was satisfying and wasn't remotely bad from a narrative perspective, but it's hardly a true final boss. Same goes for Asriel.

At least Sans was an actual final boss that provided challenge whilst still being fun.

>>318392459
>there's super mario maker and MGS 5, both better games than Undertale
see >>318391936

Also MGSV is horrible and the weakest MGS by far, and that's coming from somebody who's followed kojima for over a decade.

Mario Maker's fun, but again, how can you compare it to Undertale when they're completely different genres and concepts with zero similarities? You're comparing oranges to trucks.
>>
>>318392619
>MGSV is horrible and the weakest MGS by far
Shit taste. MGS V is much superior to 2 and infinitely superior to 4.

And you compare them easily, when people ask you for your GOTY, you give a game of a certain genre.

How so? What similarities to MGSV, Mario Maker, and Undertale have to warrant saying one is objectively better than the other?
What if somebody doesn't like stealth games, platformers, or RPGs lad? That would impact their GOTY.

Actually, the person I was responding to was the one who moved the goalpost.

He said Undertale was more interesting than 90% of games released this year. When I told him he was right but that this still meant that the remaining 10% were around 200 games, he was the one to change his position.
>>
>>318392710
Yes. Bloodborne would probably be my 2nd pick with Hotline Miami 2 in 3rd.
>>
>>318392850
But even if somebody enjoys both stealth games and RPGs, and likes both MGS and Undertale, how can one say one is better other than opinions?

You can't really say that MGS V is a better RPG because it isn't, or that Undertale is a better stealth game because it isn't.
>>
>>318392926

No, but I can say that MGS V is a better game that is funner, has better gameplay, funner mechanics, more replay value, and this is without even mentioning the obvious, such as the immensely superior graphics and production quality, voice acting, among others.
