I'm actually surprised that the tumblr fans aren't jumping down his throat because of this
>>
>>321524762
No no no, you fucking idiot. /v/ doesn't dislike it because the game is shit or too tumblr, /v/ hates it because:

1. Tumblr likes it
2. It's a little pretentious with its morality
3. Tumblr likes it
4. It is omg so retro earthbound :)) 11/10 I love 8bit games
5. Tumblr likes it.

Toby Fox is kind of a funny asshole. For the kickstarter campaign, he said you could have your character in the game. Some fat fuck furry asshat paid a bajillion dollars to get his furry OC in the game, but you can only get to the secret area to see that faggot furry if you go to a the art gallery at 8pm on October 10th, and the character is a total fucking joke who apologises constantly and just wants you to look at his art.

Just for that reason alone, Toby Fox has my respect.

What does that even mean? The game doesn't really have any kind of morals beyond "killing people is bad", which is pretty reasonable.

Well he may be right about hating it because its popular.

By hate I mean, rating it a 3/10 without playing it. Not like "omg its only a 8 guys"

The reason things like this get more hate the more popular they become is because the fanbase starts creating memes about the game everywhere, and they start referencing the game in every fucking sentence, completely out of context.

Undertale "discussion" on /v/ is shat on because there is NOTHING left to talk about. It's an extremely short game with a very limited amount of things to talk about. After the whole Gaster thing went nowhere, there was no reason to continue making hourly threads about the game.

>>321527601
>>321527601
No you're wrong, small games have shit memes too. it's actually just based on exposure
The more popular something is the more it gets talked about and the more people get exposed to it. Some of those people are the target demo and some aren't, so eventually the number of people who have been exposed to it but don't like it gets big enough that there's a sizeable group of vocal haters who can't understand why people like that thing.

Same shit happens with movies, comedians, what the fuck ever.

When something's starting out, you have to be in the niche to find out about it. When something gets popular to the point where you no longer have to be interested to find out about it, that's when it hits the tipping point.

Then there are bandwagoners

That Earthbound hack is million times more SJW than Undertale can even hope to be. The entire thing was about Andonuts struggling with his guilt AND his homosexuality. Toby outright said that he being gay was added since there werent enough gays in games back then.

The fags in Undertale atleast feel like they just happen to be gay, and were not made to fill a quota.

Most games have post-game content, new DLC, new updates, etc. to continue the lifespan of the game. Most games also have different strategies/playstyles that people can talk about.

Ok let me break it down for you since you seem to have little understanding that I indeed addressed your very weak arguments.

>The only people who post here do so regularly, you fucking retard

Untrue, again thousands of posters a month, not everyone is strapped to their monitors waiting on threads.

>They don't just magically know to come on /v/ to shitpost about a game just because they don't like it.

They don't magically appear no, what I meant is that with more exposure, more people learned about the game and thus formed an opinion on it. Some of this was negative and that bothers you because you were used to the hugbox that had formed when nearly no one knew about it.

>There was universal praise for Undertale on /v/ for a little while, then almost nothing but hate and shitposting

See the previous point, amended with that its not even close to all hate.

Lisa really isn't that much bigger when you consider that every ending in Undertale has a good deal of unique content. Also for both of them very little of their budget actually was invested in the game itself. Some was obviously, Toby paid some other artists and Dingaling paid another musician but most of it was so the two of them could live without working so that they could work on the game as a full time job. Which means Ding would just have had to live on a smaller budget.

If undertale is about anything it's about cycles of abuse, if you played blind most likely you believe flowey in some respect and killed the goat. It's a game about how violence is learned and perpetuated like LISA.

The only endings with substantial differences are Genocide and True Pacifist. The only differences between each neutral ending is how Sans converses with you in the call and who joins him and this is all decided by who you choose to kill and not kill.

Doing neutral runs like this consecutively gets boring as well as there are only really minor changes to dialogue or events but everything else remains largely the same.

That's just it, the gay characters in Undertale feel like they just happened to be that way, it's not the most important thing about them or anything. I mean, if Undyne or Alphys were a guy it would change pretty much nothing about them.

Like, I don't particularly care about the whole "inclusiveness" thing people claim to want nowadays, but if you're going to do it, write it well and most people won't mind.

Meanwhile, look at shit like Borderlands 2 where Anthony Birch just made a bunch of characters gay just so they could shoot shout it from the rooftops and get socjus brownie points.
