Better than Witcher 3. Does this make you regret buying a gaming pc or a console instead of sticking to your laptop?
>>
Well no shit. IGN isn't a reputable source for videogames. If its popular/bribed well they'll give it a 9 or a 10. Almost always a 10.
>>
thanks op i cum on cat it hiss at penis
>>
But it's fun
>>
I really wanted to like IGN, the people there seem nice and well adjusted and they've produced a bunch of cool guys like Colin Moriaty and Brian Altano.
But this, this spells the death of IGN for me. A 10 used to mean something, maybe barely, but still it was a mark of quality, of content, replayability, but now it's just worthless.
I didn't actually check to see if it was real or not, but I assume it is.
>>
>>323767565
For a 10 dollar game, it's worth 10/10.
Game has 3-6 hours content with additional 12 hours or replayability/secrets and fun dialog.

I am no homestuck guy but I enjoyed it compared to most triple A games. Had a lot of cute and emotional moments.
>>
>>323769826
Actually it seems okay now that I know MGS 5 got a 10. Score inflation has gotten to the point where a 9 is a good game, and a 10 means there was hype around it.
Fuck IGN, they're singlehandedly ruining video game reviews with this shit. Why isn't a 6 the average score, movies with massive budgets receive them all the time and look how they do at the box office.
It's just childish.
>>
>>323769826
Is this game as good as other masterpieces such as Gone Home?
>>
soundtrack alone is worth ten bucks and a 10/10
>>
I loved playing Undertale but... this shit is fuckin WACK
>>
Good game, but not a 10, 7-8 at most, even for a $10 game. Considering how Undertale came out months ago it's clear they're reviewing it now and so highly just to ride on the hype train.

IGN has been shit forever so who cares.
>>
>>323770524
Undertale is nothing like Gone Homo. It actually has gameplay, unique mechanics, a talented soundtrack, good writing and it lasts more than 15 minutes.
>>
It's like Toby has a curse of creating a horrible fandom

Fuck ign can't stand that site since Greg and Colin left, it's turned into an SJW cesspool like every other gaming site since then. Jared Petty is the only person left there worth a shit.

>>
>>323775478
No, I bought the full fucking game for TEN US DOLLARS. I started out on Hard Mode from the beginning since I come from Ys games, and then it turns out the game isn't even half an hour long.

Undertale won that meaningless GameFAQs poll because it was raided by Tubblr.

You'd have to be pretty retarded to think a one-man game has a viral marketing department.
>>
>>323769974
I played it, got bored after 2 hours.
It was obvious that you should not hit any enemy to get the good end, yet I looked it up online and it seems you can't get the good on the first playthrough anyway.
That's stupid, so I quit.
>>
Man I hope toby makes a game no one knows about and he enjoys making it.
>>
>>323776376
You can tell that this "viral marketer" has never even played the game.
>>
>>323776593
That just means your a dumbass. You get to the end without killing anyone, get a chance to go back literally five minutes through your save and do a small ass quest to get the good ending. Lazy motherfucker

>>323776851
I've played it as soon it came out. I enjoyed it a lot actually and I did not care that much for the story tbhwyf. Then I found out about genocide runs and such and replayed it a few more times, I still liked it a lot because the dialogues etc were different.
The gameplay is quite good actually and can be a challenging at times.
Best 10$ other than DaS1 that I've spent on a game.

Now I don't even discuss it because /v/ hates it.
I still love it tho.

Undertale is so fucking overrated.
I happened to play Gods Will be Watching after undertale and the later seemed like a masterpiece in comparison.
>>
>>323776593
what? if you don't kill anyone then after you beat the first playthrough you get sent to the very end of the game, unlock a new area, and then when you beat that you can play through the new ending. you don't have to repeat anything at all

IGN doesn't really care about videogames that aren't either paid to review positively or exceedingly popular. They never give attention to indie games unless they get really, really well rceived, they weren't interested at all in Undertale but they had to give in after it became borderline viral after a couple month because they want those page views.

So why do so many of you seem to hate Undertale? It's a neat game to play and has some creativity in its gameplay and dialogue. I wouldn't rate it a 10/10 but it certainly isn't shit like some of you are saying.
What's a fairly comparable game to come out recently that is better?
>>
>>323782704
the problem is it got popular. that is all.
once something gets popular enough with non 4chan /v/ hates it.

Why are they reviewing now a game released in October?
>>
>>323782902
its a bit more complicated than that

undertale's problem is not its popularity,its the loud and obnoxious fanbase.

of course /v/ will hate it when there is multiple threads about the game each day for more than a month

yes like i said.
it got popular.more and more people want to talk about it. that makes people make threads about it. as they do so the contrarians demand it is the worst meme game ever that is killing video games and unless it is an edgemaster/weeb fapbait game it panders to SJW.

Well to be fair any fanbase that isn't tight knit and well mannered is obnoxious in /v/'s eyes.

Astronomically overrated.

-The game is praised for its originality but the things this game is well known for were already more or less done on other games.
-Humor is shit because the writing is shit. Breaking the fourth wall doesn't work if you do it every 3 seconds, it ceases to be clever and starts being lazy.
-Furrybait
-super pretentious story that completely collapses once you think about the premise

-mlp-tier fanbase and shitposting. Even if I want to have a serious discussion about the game and its flaws it mostly snowballs into a mixture of deliberate shitposting and screeching fanboyism

This review is by Kallie Plagge. She was a guest on podcast beyond I usually listen to but had to stop in the middle of the last episode since she was a guest and was talking about gender issues, oppression, representation of minorities nonstop. Unbearable.
She is also the same person who gave pokemon a 7.8 because of "too much water".
She also writes about sexism, women representation, etc. in her blog and at ign.
She dropped out from college, has depression and other issues.

So if this person gives Undertale a 10/10, a 12/10 or a 9.5/10 you know it doesn't mean shit.

Nah, see, you can't get the good ending on a normal run. You go through, beat the final boss, get a neutral ending, and then the final boss comes back and as thanks for sparing his life, gives you a hint about how to get the true ending. You reload your save and go from there, then you can access the true ending.
>>
>>323784374
Yeah, its pretty much this.

Like with Minecraft.

If it had gotten the audience these games usually get (not much) it probably would not have even gotten a review.

I actually don't mind this, at least in short term.

There are games that are $10 or less, have more than 18 hrs worth of "game", and have better everything (gameplay, soundtrack, graphics, story, etc.).
