I just don't understand, /v/
I just overheard a few people saying how they were moved by this game, how it really means something to them.
I've played 3 hours of this shit and thought "eh, I guess it's alright" and pretty much stopped since.
I'm not saying that video games can't have an impact, because I think certainly Deus Ex, Xenoblade and a few others had an impact. Hell, I even teared up a bit at the end of SM64.
But why undertale? What is it about this game?
>>
it's officially the best game that's ever been made

>>320366513
the true lab at the end and the true pacifist boss fight sealed the deal for me desu

As someone who reacts strongly to music, I feel like the soundtrack played a big role in the game's emotional impact for me

I just don't understand, /v/
I just overheard a few people saying how they were moved by this book, how it really means something to them.
I've read 30 pages of this shit and thought "eh, I guess it's alright" and pretty much stopped since.
I'm not saying that books can't have an impact, because I think certainly To Kill A Mockingbird, A Clockwork Orange and a few others had an impact. Hell, I even teared up a bit at the end of Harry Potter.
But why great gatsby? What is it about this book?

If you finished the fucking game you'd find out.

This. The game shines brightest at the end.

>>320366513
You should finish it, OP. Undertale is the experience of a lifetime. Once you reach the true pacifist en you'll understand.

That's because you didn't truly finish the game, Anon.

Just go and beat the last boss, you'll see why a load of people loved the fuck out of the game

You have to like the characters. If you don't like the characters or care about the story, then the game is gonna suck or at least underwhelming.
>>
>>320367730
I beat all 3 "end bosses" and I still don't get how this game deserves this much praise.

I'll admit it's an okay game for its price, but it's definitely not GOTY.

REMINDER THAT THE POLL WAS RIGGED.

TUMBLR WAS RUNNING A BOT WITH A MONGOLIAN PROXY THAT SPAMMED HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VOTES FOR UNDERTALE EACH ROUND.

>>320368230
Honestly you are more cringe than Underfags
>>
>>320368230
hurr we know.
cause we did it with previous polls durr.
and no one did it this time cause it's FUCKING GAMEFAQS
>>
It's a narrative focused game. Lots of attention to detail. It surprises the player a lot by playing around the player's expectations and varies game mechanics in interesting ways every now and then.
>>
>>320366971
Ah, so bait then.
>>
>>320367103
Now replace the great gatsby with some modern trash and you have undertale

Perhaps fifty shades? Amateur writer, hordes of rabid fans, actual writers who look on in disgust. Literally the book version of undertale

>>320366513
>>320368230
>>320368439
>no one did it this time

Yes they did. The map that showed where the votes were coming from showed over half the votes coming from mongolia.

Proof here: >>320320756

It only moves people who are emotionally shallow or easily made emotional. People who haven't experienced real moving events in real life.

The ending of the pacifist run was so hamfisted and stupid that it ruined the game for me.

>>320368603
>actual writers
who are the "writers" in this scenario?
what is /v/'s obsession with terrible analogies?

I feel you OP ever since I played "To The Moon" I understood that gamers are emotionally stunted cretins who will gobble up whatever trite feelsy garbage is fed to them. I can't even begin to bother with Undertale, the fact that almost everyone likes it is a terrible, terrible sign.

Because the people who say that shit are the same type of easily convinced degenerates who convince themselves that they love MLP.

Looks like Space Funeral but £7 and for cunts

>>320366513
Here's a real answer to your question OP

The game is narrative trash until its last hour of the True Pacifist and Genocide playthrough. Specifically, the final fight on Pacifist is pretty well done, with solid music. And the entire Genocide run is actually both challenging and surprising. And its also where the game hides a very well done soundtrack.

That's why. 95% of the game is trash. The last 5% is easter eggs and endings.

I don't think I've ever seen such a memegame prosper so long on /v/.

It is painfully mediocre.

There's other art that comes from tumblr but you don't recognize it as being tumblr art.
