>No gameplay or story discussion anymore really
yeah no, that's a red flag right there
>>322234081
>>322234249
You're both wrong, it was initially being made in RPG Maker but was "ported" to Game Maker early in development because RPG Maker is way too shit and restrictive to make actually original games with.
>>322234348
Depends on what game you want to do. RPG maker is used to make RPGs, while in Game Maker you can make any 2d game. RPG maker is easier to use since it's more limited.
>>322234615
Well there's lots of character discussion and some story discussion, but mostly it's just shitposting waiting for new content and maybe some writefagging.
But yeah its kinda shit. I mostly go there out of habit now.
>>322234678
You can make 3D games in Game Maker. And not just recently, one of my friends made polygonal 3D games with Game Maker 4.3 back in the early 00s.
wasn't this a kickstarter game anyway? could easily have been released as freeware.

They aren't lowering their standards because they never had higher standards to begin with. Most people praising games like Undertale haven't been playing games for very long, and mostly just play internet pop games like N64 era stuff, Valve games, etc.

I guarantee I have a larger vidya collection than you and Undertale was my 2015 GOTY.

>>322239693
>more involved
That's just your perspective that dodging attacks manually, a mechanic that you don't even need, is more involved than stuff like exploiting weaknesses, using multiple characters with different abilities, figuring out strategies for different encounters, and having a game experience that lasts longer than 4 hours.

It is more involved, lad. I'm not saying that Undertale's gameplay is better but menu-based combat is hardly as involved as undertale's gameplay. It call comes down to statistics, numbers, and good RNG. In Undertale, every bit of damage you receive and give is not on the RNG, but on the player. You can't just randomly miss or dodge. Undertale's battle system is really bare bones and not fleshed out at all but if somebody actually made a game fleshing the system out more I can see the system actually being GOAT

>>322240191
The genocide run's even better. Undertale's battle system really has the potential to be used and expanded upon by competent devs. Toby just made a good framework/skeleton.

yeah i played this
i don't like the design of the character that much but the attacks where cool

i just hope they don't turn into something like pic related
>>322240191
Once again, I must reiterate: Dodging attacks manually isn't a necessary mechanics, and actually i dislike the mechanic for several reasons.
Plus if i wanted real time dodging in an RPG anyways i'd go all the way and play an action RPG.
>>322240439
Undertale is not schmup.
>>322240832
meant to reply to >>322240501
>>322240914
It's not a bullet hell either. A lot of bullet-lites have been called schmups and touhoufags have been calling undertale a schmup so I'm just parroting them
>>322234842
Is it viable though? With new engines making a 3D game in GMS would be just needlessly complicated.
>>322240832
>Battle system has potential
The battle system is bare bones as fuck, you just time your hits. There's no special moves, no weaknesses, no debuffs or buffs (that you can notice) or magic or anything.
>>322233878
You do realize 90% of devs use a pre built engine

Technically the human is the immigrant.

I gotta disagree, the fights could have been much more interesting if they were designed like the Sans fight, but than people would be bitching that its too hard I guess
>>322240914
What makes the mechanic unnecessary? Its a defining part of the gameplay, and hugely important to the game given the boss gimmicks.
>>322241089
You've read >>322240191 and >>322240439?
The entire point of the posts is Undertale's battle system has potential for a competent dev to come along and flesh it out. Toby just laid down a framework. Given undertale's success it's possible there are better devs with more money, better sense of story-telling, better artists willing to make an actual jrpg-styled game using and making undertale's schmup/bullet-lite/JRPG battle system better. I can see a chrono trigger or final fantasy clone in the future using a bullet-hell system with actual debuffs and buffs, party members, special moves, weaknesses, magic and shit.
I actually wouldn't mind if 2D jRPGs took this direction, considering the only good modern menu-based JRPGs have mechanics that can only be done in 3D.
>>322233797

>>322233297
If you think undertale even remotely resembles an rpgmaker game then you've never used rpgmaker.
>>322241985
Lots of images exist.
Some people can just never get over this for some reason.
>>322241780
ACT is just for fucking pacifist playthroughs
>>322233297
Okay, I'll explain more in depth then. Most RPGs generally advocate and encourage violence such as beating up random encounters, while Undertale goes in the opposite direction and preaches pacifism. Many of the enemies in the game are actually limited and disappear forever once you've killed them (my memory is fuzzy on this).
In terms of gameplay, a pacifist player does such things like flirting or talking with the enemies, which helps change their mood. Once they're peaceful, the player can spare them to end the battle, although they do not earn EXP (there's a good reason for this, but it's a spoiler). Alternatively, the player can just beat up everything like a regular RPG, and the enemy(ie)'s turn has them launch projectiles and such at the player's soul, which is usually represented by a tiny heart in a box.
I can't really explain more without spoilers, but later in the game a character called Sans reveals that EXP actually stands for Execution Points and that the game's HP, LOVE, stands for Love Of Violence, which is a pretty shocking reveal for the first time around.
If you have the money, pick the game up while it's still on sale and play a bit into the midway point. Undertale is the sort of game that is really hard to explain.
>>322241951
Because you can just get good armor and face tank the damage and healing when you get low.

You can alter the style of the enemies combat patters at will.
Can even trick some of them into healing you.
And in some cases can lower or raise an enemy's attack/defense.
How fucking bad at videogames do you have to be to be ignorant of this easy shit in THIS GAME?
>>322242102
>Most RPGs generally advocate and encourage violence such as beating up random encounters, while Undertale goes in the opposite direction and preaches pacifism.

Not really senpai. Here's a comparison
>cow is standing in the middle of the road minding its own business but blocking your path
>most rpgs you would kill it, get exp and wear its magical cow hide of agility
>in undertale you have the option just to move the cow out of the way and proceed
>>322241089
the gameplay focuses more on your ability to dodge the hits. Other actions are limited to attacking and acting. I don't think it's too bad because the defense phase is pretty involved and you get a bunch of different attack patterns from enemies, enemies all attack at the same time, and many bosses throw on gimmicks that really change the game up into platformer or rhythm game or shump.
Its like if Mario and luigi RPGs expanded the defense phase a hell of alot but trades all special forms of attack for the act button.

Well, that's the trick. It doesn't represent the game, because /v/ doesn't give a shit about the game. It represents the ~community~ around undertale, the literal tumblrtale part of it. That's what /v/ hates, and that's what's so much fun to get mad at.
>>322242351
I'm not ignorant of it i'm just saying it's not necessary
If you're going genocide, you just brainlessly kill them
If you're going pure pacifist, you should try to end the encounter quickly
>Pacifistfags trying to defend Monsters just because "Y-you can't stay dead, you're d-determined! Therefore y-you aren't allowed to kill anyone!"
You aren't even worth the EXP you give.
Might I also add that in the True Pacifist Ending, once Frisk dies, Flowey will acquire his powers again, allowing him to fuck everything up?
>>322243008

>nobody can kill you
They don't know that tho

>>322242164
I'm pretty sure atleast you have Temmy armor, letting a boss get all the hits in is going to have you sacrifice a lot of turns to healing. Asgore can still do decent damage even with the heart thing, the genocide bosses dont give a fuck. I'm positive you can just allow every single hit in the game without hordi g a shit ton of cash through the Temmie village.
>>322243008
>nobody can kill you
It's not like they fucking know that
>>322242872

>>322243203
I didn't even know about the temmie armor my first playthrough. i just used the weapon that increased i-frames after getting hit and the best armor i could buy normally since i sucked at dodging some of the later patterns and for some reason you can't remap the controls to wasd.
>>322242605
i guess you can't reflect most attacks in undertale, but counterattacking in the Dummy and Mettaton bosses was fun as hell.

>>322242829
you kind of have to blame your ancestors for being extreme dicks to them and locking them underground where they had no way of telling wether or not modern man still wanted to make them suffer. Besides killing you was a valid method of finally getting out.

This is Game Maker, actually. But RPG Maker, and Game Maker sell commercial licenses to let you sell shit using their engine. While not anywhere near as prohibitively expensive as a one year commercial license for 3DS Max (last I checked I believe that runs up something like $6,500), the commercial license is still too much for some people to care.
If you really want an answer to your question from the community itself, OP, lower the price of the commercial license, then see how long the games stay free.
