Yeah, okay. I get that's good for an indie game, but like Five Nights at Freddy's, it seems more popular on the Internet than in real life.

I only got it because I wanted to know the game my momfu is from and I wouldn't say that milfgoat fucking is an admirable thing.

How is the game is feminist at all, or queer? It has two homo couples through g he whole game. I don't feel anymore prepared than I did 5 years ago.
Seen people praise the innovative gameplay but I've seen some videos and it looks like your average turn based rpg combat but with passifist options. Is there any more to it or are they just praising it for just that?
I like how this is the exact opposite of what Toby wanted.
>>317927757
No, it's just a flavor of the month shitty tumblr meme game.
>complex themes
Okay all meming aside what are they even talking about. The game leaves nuance and subtlety at the door and tells you exactly how to feel about everything.
>>317927757
Not really. Innovative is a big stretch. It's just different.

>if people that I dont like like it, then I shouldn't like it
I like the game for the soundtrack, the meta elements, how it predicts every player's movement and some bossfights. The "open-minded attitude is what resonates with gamers" line is plain bullshit and pretending that she speaks for the majority is retarded.
>>317927757
it has a nice cute atmosphere and push the pacifist option. nice idea for a story.
it's also really cinematic.
it has absolutely nothing exceptional, but it does few things right, for example it use music and animations wellt o convey the emotion of the monsters you are fighting.
>>317928147
Sometimes being told how to feel is more progressive because then you can't have a wrong opinion.
>>317923875
It's /v/'s 2015 Games For Change pick.
The GOTY pick is clearly the most successful title.

>>317927427
>It has two homo couples through g he whole game.
Out of how many couples total?
>>317928247
i liked the gay knights. i can't absolutely deny it.
but at the same time i was a bit weirded out that there was no etero couple in the spotlight.
it would have been interesting and a way to put lights on how mosnter families work and how 100 species menaged to survive for thousand of years underground.
>>317923875
NO
I LEGIT REFUSE TO ALLOW OTHER PEOPLE TO THINK THIS GAME IS OBJECTIVELY GOOD
CALL IT AN ENJOYABLE GAME IF YOU MUST. SAY IT FIT YOUR TASTE IF YOU MUST. BUT DON'T PRETEND IT DOESN'T HAVE A BILLION FLAWS AND IS INSANELY OVERRATED
>>317928324
Most successful would be Call of Duty. Sold more in its first 3 days than Fallout in its first week.
Undertale Fanbase is literally the same level of FNAF Fanbase
They do nothing just draw pictures of characters and make up fanfiction stories while fapping to the pictures
>>317923875
>Review based on feelings and not gameplay
Why is this allowed?
I like Undertale because it remind me of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games story wise.
Though Undertale leans more towards meta than PMD's more genuine story telling.
[spoiler} Explorers of sky did a better job of the 'friend/partner crying about you leaving' plot point. Flowey/Asriel a shit
>>317928538
because gameplay is mostly feeling(yeah, i just fucking said that) and some funky, low tier, yet "refreshing", mini bullethell.
I had fun with it. I am sucker for games with hidden stuff and secrets throughout.
It wasn't amazing, but it was an okay playthrough. I wish it lasted longer than 5 hours though, I want at least the amount of dollars I paid in hours of playtime.
>>317928523
>They do nothing just draw pictures of characters and make up fanfiction stories while fapping to the pictures
AKA the entire point of Tumblr.
>>317923875
I fucking hate how they advertise it like this, the game doesnt flaunt that it has progressive fucking themes, it just implements them well. That way it doesnt feel fucking forced and that it changed the outcome of the game like other games that did.
>>317928621
>bullethell
How many new games did you play in 2015, anon?
want proof this game attracts the worst kind of fuckers imaginable?
>>>317918001
>>317928538
eh the sans fight looks like the only fun part to me
>>317923875
Excuse me, but what? What in the fuck is this article talking about? It's a fucking super quirky Earthbound retro whatever, where in the fuck are they pulling all these conclusions from?
It's a genuinely good game though, /v/ is constantly shitting on AAA releases for not trying to innovate or move the medium forward and when a game that does that comes along it gets shit on too. I don't get it.
Like for one, it has a "moral choice system" that actually fundamentally alters the way the game plays. You look at Fallout where you can nuke a town and the overall plot won't particularly change. In this if you go out of your way to murder everything you see everyone else will take the hint and get the fuck out of there before you kill them too. The puzzles will be nonexistent since the enemies feel like they're better off evacuating than fucking about playing games with you, the boss fight mechanics totally change in some instances.
it's a really, genuinely smart game. If it weren't for some morons spamming "tumblrtale" when it came out it would've been much better well received but /v/'s pack mentality/hivemindwould rather hate a game than love it, even when it's actually pretty good.
>>317928690
2 anon.
how would you even describe the bullet dodging of Undertale? it is Bullethell gameplay, just on a smaller scale and in a different enviroment than what you usually find it in.
>>317928437
4 to my knowledge, not including people in towns and stuff cause there is the rock couple with kids and another family I think.
I expected way too much going into this game after the constant reviews of how innovative it is.
I've already played Eartbound and Mother 3 so this wasn't nearly as "groundbreaking" for me as it was for other people I guess. Not a bad game but not really amazing either. The humor was a little too "on the nose" compared to Mother.
>>317923875
That means none of those things.
Why do people who not know about things post about things?
>>317928820
lots of ambiguous shit and genderbending.
>>317928775
>Like for one, it has a "moral choice system"
Multiple paths are are not innovative.
>>317928465
It's does a lot of stuff right and its flaws aren't that copious. The writing could be a bit more subtle, but the gameplay was solid and memorable and I cared more about characters thsn I did quiet, or my kid in fallout 4
How the fuck is this feminist in any way
>>317928927
Fair enough but I feel like the way they went about it is. I'm sure there are a couple more games based on random encounters where you can completely eliminate all the enemies in an area but of that small segment of RPGs how many use that mechanic to alter the plot?
>>317928820
>4 to my knowledge
Then about 50% of the couples the player interacts with are gay? Sounds pretty pro-LGBT in that regard.
>>317929012
>all of the strong characters, knights, etc are either gay or female
>all the males are either weak, complete goofballs, or sans.
so progressive
>>317928775
i can draw strong criticism to it too.
gameplay is puzzle + dodging shit + making the right choice.
yet there are very few fights in the game worth anything.
puzzles are uninteresting and often bad and uninspired. and there is always a fucking faggot telling you how to solve the puzzle.
you keep going because there is a cute dialogue happening in the next 3 seconds and a one liner NPC at the end of the tunnel who will tella bad joke and then some cute animation, but the journey through the underground is basically a scripted cakewalk into the pixel cinema. the game does that well at least.
>>317929096
I didn't really see that as a feminism thing, just a reverting videogame tropes kinda thing.
>>317929202
lrn2subtext
>>317929030
wouldn't the number be fair to all? 1 gay couple, 1 lesbian couple, and 1 hetero couple. you can't ask for 97 etero couple and 3 gay ones to respect the statistical distribution of human society. he just showed one of each.
the problem, if really there is a problem there, is that the gay and lesbian couple got a lot of attention. you interact more with those characters, you remember them more, while the hetero couples play a forgettable role.
>>317929030
...really? Are you like delusional?
>>317928775
The problem I have with the "moral choices" in Undertake is that it presents a false choice. There is a right answer and a wrong answer. There is a best ending. If you can only choose to be right or choose to be wrong is that a real choice? There's no grey area.
In Witcher you make choices you believe in and the game goes on from there. There's no best ending, there's just your own adventure and your own ending.
>>317929202
See? You didn't even realize.
Proof! Gamers don't care. Everyone can go home.
>>317929012
50% of the cast is male, 50% female.
The strongest fighter in the story is female. (per the training dialog)
The most educated/intelligent character in the story is female.
The most caring/loving character in the story is female.
Sans is often seen as the hardest fight, but 90% of players will never even see that battle.
>>317928775
the only good part of the game is genocide bosses.
>>317929274
What gay couple gets a lot of attention? I don't even remember any except the knights
>>317928943
>gameplay was solid
Pokemon gameplay was better than this.
I hope you guys don't get pissed at this. This is exactly what we need. Now when feminists claim misogyny in games or that we shun progressive ideas they have no leg to stand on and we can prove they're just talentless hacks blaming boogymen on their shortcomings.
>>317929389
>>The strongest fighter in the story is female

>>317929389
Wouldn't Sans be the strongest character since he doesn't need to go SSJ first to fuck your shit up?
I was severely disappointed by this game. I'm not one to normally play bullet hell games, so maybe that's why I didn't like it. I am a huge RPG fan, however, and found Undertale to be severely underwhelming.
First, the good points: The game's OST and style are both fantastic. Even now I still listen to the same tracks I remember from the game, over and over.The style of this game was great too. The 8 bit world looks and feels great and it really feels reminiscent of classic RPGs like Pokemon and Mother. Even moving segments like waterfalls fit in well with the style of it all.
The combat can be decently fun too, as certain enemies require specific combinations in order to beat them without killing them. Some of these seem quite shallow (eg. Flexing several times in a row) but some are unique and fun. The game also gets bonus points for having it set up so the characters' dialogue change depending on your actions, including how you previously played the game and your previous save/load files. I felt this was a neat little tidbit to make the player feel more aware of their actions, that they would have real weight to them.
Now for the bad points..
Will the game go on sale during this autumn steam sale? I'd like to try, but I don't want to dish out $10 for an indie game.
>>317929420
This.
Who gives a fuck what games do. There should be a game for everyone. This will make them shut up.
>>317929274
The gay couple appears in 4 screens throughout the 3 routes. There's no focus on them.
>>317929492
First and foremost, this game bored me to tears. I had to force myself to finish even one run. Through every section of the game I found myself feeling the need to simply get through that section as there was no real incentive to stay within any one area. A good example is the town of Snowdin, where it might seem alive but there really is nothing to actually do there. The lava area was especially dreary, as it was tedious puzzle after puzzle that was interrupted loads of times by an annoying dinosaur and a talking robot. And what's your reward? One of the most unsatisfying battles with a talking spider. The gameplay, minus some unique Sparing battles, is garbage. You move around and press Z on things. That's it. There is no incentive to do anything besides the main quest because this game has basically zero side quests that actually benefit your gameplay in any way. The puzzles are too easy, plain, and are what you might find in early Pokemon gyms. I don't even know why the puzzles are in this game as they add nothing to it, save for the bits with Papyrus.
Combat as well is garbage if you decide to attack normally. I've heard some people say "well combat isn't a big part of the game" well if you decide to go genocide route, it's basically a third of the entire game (and that's being generous). The dialogue and characters are more hit than miss. Mettaton and Muffet, for example, felt completely out of place and would have been better left out. I understand Muffet was an extra character people paid for, which is fine, but Mettaton has no excuse considering he's in the game so much. Alphys is more tolerable because she at least has personality and reason for what she's doing, but Mettaton is basically "HA LOOK AT ME I WANNA BE FAMOUS OH BTW KEEL ALL HUMANS!!!11" What do Mettaton's constant appearances add to the atmosphere of the game? Nothing. He's basically the Jar Jar binks of the game: A character that adds nothing but is silly for the sake of silly.
>>317929274
>wouldn't the number be fair to all?
I'm not sure what you're asking me.
The article suggests the game is "progressive" and indicates that gamers are "ready for ... queer romance."
You asked "how is the game ... queer?"
Well, if 2-3% of the population is LGBT, and 50% of the couples you're put in front of are LGBT, that's seems pro-"queer." Specifically, if a game featured hundreds of couples, like you said, and no couples were gay, someone could accuse the game as being anti-LGBT.
>>317928775
Maybe if when it was released the entire front page what Undertale threads people wouldn't react so harshly to it.
>>317929556
The rest of the characters are sort of in the same line. Most of them are quirky for the sake of quirky and don't really fit much into the themes presented in the game. Sans, Asgore, Asriel and Toriel are really the only characters that add to the emotion the game is trying to convey. Even Papyrus, who I like as a character, was quirky for the sake of quirky, but he doesn't really add anything. He wants friends? He wants to be popular? OK great, what does that add to anything? The rest of the NPCs are even worse, throwing out stupid one-liners that don't add anything to the atmosphere trying to be portrayed. Why should I care that your library sign is misspelt? Why should I care that you like the sound of a door knock? Why are you telling you about your buyer's remorse? A lot more effort could have been put into the dialogue, especially with the NPCs who feel more stale than Pokemon NPCs. I will also mention that I didn't like the humour, but I know some people did, so I'm going to leave this as a subjective point.
Overall, Undertale is one of the most overrated games of 2015. I'm a bit disappointed by the internet for rating it so consistently highly especially when I've seen better games rated lower. I'm seriously starting to believe that the only reason people are rating this game so highly is because they were surprised by it, not because they genuinely felt it was a good game.
>>317929532

>>317929674
Was I talking shit about his fight? No, I was talking shit about his existence as a character.
Undertale suffers from being a game whose entire value comes from plot and whose plot only works the first time you play it and only if you don't already know that the game has a big twist.
I liked it but I'll never play it again and anyone who knows about it before they play it probably won't even get the full impact that the game intended.
>>317929605
>Overall, Undertale is one of the most overrated games of 2015
Are you surprised? Regardless of the quality of the game, the fans are obsessive. I hardly even see any discussion on the actual game aside from the Sans fight, just "LMAO LOOK AT PAPYRUS BE QUIRKY GUYS" or "TOP KEK M8 HAVE YOU SEEN THESE TWO LESBIANS I'M SHIPPING"
I am not surprised in the slightest that one of this game's cash cows was a furry who wanted his butterdragon inserted into the game.
>>317929758
>or basically the kid you play as, which is a boy
you're dumb

If people want to discuss it that's fine. But you don't need to make a new thread when there's already 4 of them up.

he's talking about the fact that it adds nothing consistent to the underworld's Lore and to the story's theme about love and tolerance, yet he gets something like 4 big sections.

I haven't been gaming much recently, but this is great news. I just bought Undertale and Life is Strange on steam. It's good to see games get more progressive and inclusive.

>How the fuck is that feminist?
There were two "loving" parents in the game. Asgore and Toriel.
Toriel, per the writing, was left as a caring/loving mother while Asgore was a child murdering self-ashamed coward.
Sure, maybe he selected AT COMPLETE RANDOM the man to be the child abusing murderer and the woman to be the caring and loving motherly figure.
Or perhaps you feel that it's "natural" for men to want to kill children as much as it's "natural" for women to be loving caring mothers.

How am I triggered? I said games like these are good, they have no negative impact on gaming or you, whatsoever. It doesn't pander, the majority of people in the world are not feminists or LGBT, just like the majority of people who like this game are not. However, if it does reach another group of people such as LGBT gamers, and legitimately makes them feel included, why is that so bad? How does this harm you?
You need to step away from the computer and work on your hatred issues.
>>317930482
Like I said, I haven't played it so can't really comment on the gameplay mechanics but apparently people found it overall enjoyable experience, which is kinda fucking important
>>317930184
I love this game, but the only thing I don't like is how shoe horned it was at the end of the pacifist ending that Asgore was the "horrible child murderer" and Toriel hates him because he wanted to wait for humans to come and kill them.
Toriel's plan still involves getting human souls, but because Asgore wanted to wait for people who, as the story states, climb the mountain that NOBODY CAN COME BACK FROM and kill them, he's the bad guy.
>shitposting with this again
SJWs have been twisting around undertale's message, lad. toby went outright and said that he didn't think progressively when pairing alphys and undyne, he's just really into yuri, which is backed up because back in 2009 his top 10 list of animu contained yuri romances, lad.

Oh wow, did I lie? I beat the game in aprox 2 hours. The world is extremely short: you can walk from the ruins to the barrier in a matter of minutes (I know because I returned to the start to talk with Asriel).
It's even funnier because the game encourages you NOT replaying it, calling you are a jerk if you want to see other endings (not that you would, since neutral endings just change one line and genocide is extremely boring, having to walk around like an idiot until the game gives you enough random encounters. Even if you want for the only 2 new bosses, nothing stops you from just download a save state near them).
LISA had more homosexuality than this
>>317930305
>he was a human killer, not a child killer
Both he and toriel adopted the first human child, did you even play the game? There's two beds in asriel's room, asgore and toriel didn't see humans as just somethings to kill. That's the whole point of toriel trying to save you at the beginning, keeping human children from leaving the ruins and being murdered.
>flip those genders around and you get triggered
Nice try. Specifically, the question is "how is this feminist." And the answer was out of the two parents, Toby made one a child killer, and left one a loving parent. Specifically, this showcases how the female cast received more respect than the male cast members.

this, but the homosexuality in lisa was actually portrayed well, unlike the 'gay for the sake of being gay' and 'quirky for the sake of being quirky' characters in undertale.
>>317930576
>if it does reach another group of people such as LGBT gamers, and legitimately makes them feel included
LISA is an example of a game that does this, undertale's homosexuals are borderline caricatures.
>>317930592
>He's just really into yuri
I know 4chan likes to joke about this kind of shit but if you ever met or talked to someone who was into Yuri for more than a few minutes you would know how fucking insufferable they are
>>317930680
There's no trolling, if it isn't hatred, what is it? You are getting triggered and insulting people for saying a well received game is also nice for being more inclusive.
You come off as angry. The more people a game reaches out to while remaining legitimately good, the better. When a game targets a single demographic and literally panders to them, it doesn't succeed, be it in a pseudo-progressive form or edgy one. Since we're on topic of the word, the game (Hatred) is a great example of this.
>>317930721
yeah but LISA is hardly progressive, lad. It's almost a /pol/ game with some of the shit it does.
LISA and Undertale aren't really intended to be progressive. LISA's "homosexuality" is just a play-on of overly masculine/feminine dudebros in FoTS and Jojo's bizarre adventure, whereas Undertale's homosexuality is based on toby faggot's yuri/yaoi boner than anything truly progressive.

If you can't see how Flowey's laugh and psychotic nihilistic personality was inspired by Kefka's laugh and psychotic nihilistic personality, you're a fool.
Same for how Froggit is Pepe.
Same how that lesser doge is Longcat + Doge.
Same how Flowey makes a trollface.
Same how the goats are mimigas straight from Cave Story and the name of the game is Under Tale aka Underground Tale aka Cave Story.
Same how the game rips samples straight from Earthbound.
Same with how "anime is real" comes from "Ron Paul will make anime real"
Same with how the game uses stereotypical stock characters and then makes them lesbians so somehow they're original when they'd be tired crap otherwise.
Same how the entire game is cribbed from safe pop culture memes, YouTube animal videos, and safe well-regarded video game nostalgia references slightly rearranged to pander.

>Toriel's plan still involves getting human souls
It's stated she knew what he was doing, and only really upset that he didn't move forward with shattering the barrier after he got the first human soul gathered. Which is completely out of character for her.
The writing is trying to imply that they split because she never approved of his plan, but it does seem clunky seeing as how she was a brisk walk away from him carrying out his plan the whole time.

As someone who agrees with toby on horseshoe theory, he's still human fucking garbage for liking yuri, and i'm not exaggerating. He's genuine human fucking garbage. Especially when his game relies on "lmao anime is real" tier bullshit to get laughs.
SJW and GGs might be authoritarian cunts, but he's a cunt who obsesses over "cute!~" shit like the autist he is. I'm surprised he was even ashamed that the fat furry fuck wanted his self insert in the game. He can fuck off, I don't care about any of his damage control.

A human child killer. After he and Toriel had adopted a human child.

Toby's a fucking carebear and it is pretty cancerous, but he's did a good job on staying neutral in vidya politics.
This game had ruined me. This board had ruined me.
I'm so sexually attracted to sans, I can't have normal sex anymore. Hell, I can't even masturbation normally. He's fucked with the core of my brain. Everything from his smile, down to his shitty sense of humor.
And the worst part is, its never going to happen. He's not real. The best I can hope to do is rail an attractive cosplayer, and even then its not the same.

because people saying it's a SJW game are wrong, senpai. it just attracts retarded SJWs. toby's reasoning for half of the shit is retarded anime cliches rather than social justice bullshit.
you know its pretty telling in a lot of ways when a game gets such good reviews yet only sells a measly 250k
it basically tells me 2 major things
1. Plenty of people don't give a shit about reviews or at least don't buy any games based on them
2. Reviewers do a really bad job at representing the majority opinion and likely have huge biases towards specific things
I'm sure people already suspected this but I feel like its never been more obvious
>>317931258
because, and I know this is a hard thought to process, there are people who disagree with you and think the game is good

Reminder that reviewers are not objective in their analysis and that editors are universally enforcing bias.
You heard knocking.
Everything was ready. You stood up and walked towards the door on your tippy toes. Soft socks made your steps impossible to hear through the door. You opened the peephole as silently as you could, and peeked through. She was there, standing awkwardly in the rain, looking sidewards, like staring on the door would be rude. You observed her for a moment. You saw her struggle to decide if she should ring the bell again. Her palm was reaching towards it, she was touching it, slowly examining the surface with soft bottoms of her clawed fingertips, then she removed her arm and looked at the door with a begging expression.
Silly thing, doesn't she know door can't talk?
You waited patiently until she pressed the button. Real friends should challenge each other to get outside of the comfort zone. You opened instantly, before the bell even stopped making a sound, to see her puzzled face.
"H...Hi, Frisk!", she said, trying hard to look really brave.
You could see that even meeting one of her best friends was a strain for her.
Disappointing.
You nodded and smiled, inviting her in.
She looked around.
"Where is the queen?", she asked.
"Mom is with some of her friends right now."
Alphys looked at you with big eyes. She was finding your use of the word cute. A human child calling a monster their mother.
You had to admit it was more endearing than the other way around.
You pierced her with a stare.
"Do you want to be a mom one day, Alphys?"
She got really embarrassed. Red was beaming from her cheeks even through her yellow scales.
"I... I didn't think about it yet... But! I'm... I'm not saying never.", she answered with a shy smile.
"But two girls can't have kids with each other.", you said.
She froze.
And then she smiled again.
"We're... we're magical monsters. And I'm a scientist. If we'd want to, I'm sure we'd find a way."
She seemed very determined.
>>317929556
>>, which is fine, but Mettaton has no excuse considering he's in the game so much. Alphys is more tolerable because she at least has personality and reason for what she's doing, but Mettaton is basically "HA LOOK AT ME I WANNA BE FAMOUS OH BTW KEEL ALL HUMANS!!!11" What do Mettaton's constant appearances add to the atmosphere of the game? Nothing. He's basically the Jar Jar binks of the game: A character that adds nothing but is silly for the sake of silly.
You completely misinterpreted MTT. His "Kill humans" thing was a complete act for the sake of Alphys. Alphys and MTT became friends because MTT was trying to start a human fan club and Alphys was the only person to show up. Then she built him a robot body. MTT's main drive is trying to escape being sad and shut in like Napstablook, which is why they're related (from a narrative standpoint). Even his claim that he was going to challenge you to take your soul for himself was likely an act, because when you defeat him he talks about how you actually stand a chance against Asgore, and how he cares about his fans. He does help develop the lore too: One character is the only entertainment outlet for the entire underground, which really hits home that the place is tiny and cramped. Also, the fact he's not actually a robot is a hint towards Alphys having tons of secrets, since making a robot with a soul was supposed to be how she proved her worth as a scientist.
I would love nothing more than to see a AAA title come out featuring a transgender character and see it sell millions and get a high review score across the board

"A lizard having a kid with a fish? What would it be like? A newt? Hahaha, that's silly!", you laughed cheerfully.
She laughed with you, but without putting any heart in it. You hate it when people are not honest with their smile.
"Alphys, Alphys, I got some anime for you!", you yelled to break the tension.
You showed her a box featuring a schoolgirl with a knife, her silhouette dark against the moon.
"That's!"
Alphys seemed really excited.
"That's a great anime! That's!"
Her smile faltered.
"That's... completely inappropriate for a kid your age".
"Come on, Alphys! You sent a killer robot after me, if this haven't traumatize me, why would some cartoon do?"
She froze again. And then looked around, avoiding your eyes. A moment of silence has passed.
"Y-you know what? I've already seen this one. Maybe we can watch something on your computer? I have a list of anime you may like. May..."
"Oh, my computer's broken! But don't worry! I have another anime! It's about pirates! I heard it's very famous! Oh, and instead of this stupid subtitles it has a very cool dubbing!"
She sighed.
You sat on a couch. You watched amused as she was cringing through the cheesy opening.
She seemed very uneasy in general.
You decided to be nice and give her something to get on cheer her up. You paused for a moment and went to the kitchen.
"So, since anime is made in Japan, so I thought I would cook you something Japanese for our anime night", you said, bringing a plate of sushi.
"You made it... for me?"
She instantly forgot her bad mood and smiled.

Alphys sighed.
"I don't have much time to hang out with my friends lately. I learn so much about the human science, but it seems the humans learn a lot from us as well. Well! But at least our knowledge brings us enough money to accommodate everyone! Both me and Sans are giving almost all profits to our little monster fund... But he still got enough cash to buy his brother a sport's car!"
She smiled, hope on her face.
"You know... At first I was, frankly, really afraid to live on the surface. Thrilled, but afraid. And... It was hard. It is. I... I don't like everyone staring at me. And... Not all people are nice. About me. Us. Being monsters. Often I just like to rest reading stuff on the Internet... The Internet, where nobody knows you're a lizard! But Undyne... She tells me we, monsters, should be proud. And that we shouldn't hide who we are. Do you think she's right?"
"Being yourself feels good", you said. "Feels best."
Alphys was in a good mood now, despite a butchery of anime still running on a screen.
"Oh... And funny you mentioned Sans. I've visited him today", you said.
"Oh! How are the skeletons doing?"
"I just jumped in for a moment, but Sans just begged me to spare his brother disappointment and try some of his spaghetti."
"Was it any good?", she asked, amused.
"Papyrus can be really good when he knows what he's doing. But, I am still better", you said, pointing at the last piece of sushi.
She grabbed it, then looked at her fingers. She took it in her hands again and examined it.
"This piece has no fish on it, only rice and..."
She looked at you, surprised.
You smiled. And you smiled. And you smiled.
Her eyes opened wide when the realization hit her.
A violent spasm shook her and she vomited heaps of dust-covered rice. Tears filled her eyes. She was crying and puking almost silently.

>It's funny that people are pretending Undertale is revolutionary. I don't mind but I really think people are hyping beyond what it really is. I was expecting some 7/10 scores from reviewsites with maybe a core fanbase and that's it. Having a lesbian couple is not really revolutionary, it's been done since the 90s. I wasn't even thinking progressively when I paired Alphys and Undyne in the first place, as you can tell a lot of the themes and messages in Undertale are projections of things I enjoy. I based their relationship off of anime cliches. The two royal guards were only paired because when I first designed them, they almost looked like overly masculine Fist of the North Star characters and thought it would be funny to pair them. People just like to take messages and twist them into things they can get behind. I'm not a martyr of social justice, both sides of this social justice VS gamergate debate represent authoritarian values that I can't really get behind. They both represent censoring things they don't like.

>. He wants friends? He wants to be popular? OK great, what does that add to anything?
That he's easily manipulated, which is how Undyne used him to start tracking you, how Flowey used him to manipulate him, and how to establish the feel of the game. Having characters that you feel you like as a player means a lot more than having characters that you're just told are the main character's friend. Did you never take middle school literature classes or something? How can you not figure out why the major characters are important.
>>317931674

Honestly, there's a single extra ingredient you're missing out on.

The people that buy millions upon millions of GTAs and CoDs are the same people that earn Cameron's Avatar a billion dollars. They're the "normies" of video games, people that are so impressed at what they're looking at that it doesn't really matter how or what it plays like.
Something like Undertale could be a legit 10/10 with 100% support of both /v/ and tumblr and it would never break into mainstream. Mainly because it looks like a SCUMM/Sierra game from 1987.
I'm sure these "retro" graphics are certainly nostalgic for kids born in the late 1990s (when graphics were much, much, much better), but for the most part it's indie hipster for being indie hipster. And as such it's going to stay niche, and that's for the best.

This may or may not be bait, but it's worth remembering words can change meaning.
i.e. depending on how you define 'Woman' which is already very vaguely defined (Like 'A woman is a female'), it's very possible to remove the distinction between a biological woman and a trans woman.
Just like you no longer use 'wer' to refer to an adult man, because the use of language has changed.

Not really a normalfag but he seems like the type of guy that doesn't want to get caught into petty video game politics and is just riding the sidelines.
I've never said gamergate represents censoring shit, it's just feasible that many people would think gamergate wants to censor liberal values in vidya because the media portrays them as a boogeyman.
Toby's made it clear he doesn't like SJWs or gamergaters.
Undertale isn't that clever, it's just imitating better and more interesting things that haven't been imitated in a long time.
So they seem new, but if you're not a total fuckboy you've seen everything the game has been done before already.
>>317932130
The way people complain about "progressive" bullshit that's being pushed in some vidya is not that far from the SJWs. Like, I don't find Gone Home e.g. interesting at all either, but some of the outright hate is ridiculous.
>>317930470

It's worth remembering that the best 'cure' available is still transition in a lot of cases.

This just in, games don't need to do something new to be excellent.

That's fine. But saying GG are just as bad as SJW because they both want "things banned" is pretty retarded without evidence.
The fact that the creator felt the need to 'represent' the gay demographic at all proves he's just another affirmative action progressive.

How is that in any way a product of "gamergate?"
Is gamergate just anyone that isn't a SJW? Or is it anyone that is critical of SJW? Or is it now just anyone that is critical of anything a SJW likes?
Because I only loosely followed all the edrama and gamergate as a twitter hastag stuck to their "down with bad journalism" shtick. I suppose it's easier to strawman them into being the same people that hated gone home, but I think that's a stretch.

This is true, but also largely irrelevant because so long as they're functionally treated like women, it doesn't come up outside a hospital.
This is where people proudly declare how they'd lose their retail jobs by referring to a transgender person with the pronoun of their biological sex, then get into an argument when 'corrected'. Good luck with that, I'm taking the path of least resistance and calling them whatever they want.(provided it's he, she, or they. I draw the line at xe/xey/xir nonsense.)

>Is gamergate just anyone that isn't a SJW? Or is it anyone that is critical of SJW? Or is it now just anyone that is critical of anything a SJW likes?
It's people who actively identify as part of Gamergate.
Just ignore this stuff and play what you love.
>>317933001
This, everyone wants it to perceive the game more than what it is. When it's just a guy who has an affinity for earthbound and wanted to fuck with the player and showing them that you are not above your consequences.
>>317933260
Or it's just about anyone who doesn't agree to them SJWs, according to them
>>317929348
Except that's not true at all?
If you're talking about the Pacifist vs. Genocide then the game goes into a lot of depth about this
Unrelenting pacifism is wrong and weird- several characters call you out on the fact that your pacifism is unatural in the face of said adversity, and Sans even says that the only reason you should even be a pacifist is because it's the best for everyone
In Genocide you single-handedly commit genocide. Gee, anon. I wonder if that's bad at all?
Plus there is a neutral path of like 20 variants.
>>317931765
Feel bad for this guy. He just made a fun game with humerus characters.
If only tumblr and sjws could realize the irony of them forcing their views and beliefs on to Undertale.
Nah, pointing that out would probably be literally raping them.
>>317933382
>humerus
>>317929348
Even the 'best' ending isn't great. Indeed one of the neutral endings tells you that it is the 'best for everyone' as well.
>>317928443
Theres those dogs in the hoods that got married
Too bad the Alphys and Undyne romance shit was fucking terrible. Call it progressive as much as you want but it was just bad writing. Gay knights were whatever; handled better than A&U but still not great.
>>317933547
It was based off Anime stereotypes, what did you expect?
>>317930098
So you force the character into a specific role because it makes you uncomfortable if its a different role? How is that _not_ sexist?

>>317933260

You'd think. But I'm not aware of anyone that actively identifies as gamergate and is on the record for wanting anything censored or banned as Toby Fox claims.
>>317930098
>males with long hair is okay but boys isn't
where the fuck do you live?
children with long hair is a-okay here, not so much adults
>>317933547
Both homo couples were handled in a lighthearted and comical fashion.
Never at any point does the game attempt to shove their relationships in your face or preach about how homosexuality is OK.
Shit, you can even murder those queers if you want to (except Alphys I guess)
Here's how it works:
>SJW enjoys thing or tries to latch onto popular thing
>turns around and thinks "I enjoyed thing, but how does it fit into my narrow worldview? How do I use it to earn internet social struggle points?"
>mines the game for anything that can be interpreted as "progressive", if it isn't, headcanon and misinterpret the fuck out of it
>"Play this game because it is literally progressive sisters!"
It doesn't matter that Undertale isn't really particularly progressive at all (unless you live in the Middle East and gay relationships are still shocking to you) or that other games have done it before. It's the worldview where everything revolves around penises and vaginas. I assure you you can find similar cringeworthy SJW tirades claiming it's progressive and everyone is trans about any popular game that you like.

Pretty sure you have that backwards or at least sidewards.
I remember his kickstarter, and all the popular blogger/journalists flogging the game at the time. To imply they came limping in long after the game was designed and written I think is very deceitful. There were drawings popping up on Tumblr of the characters during the funding phase where he got 50k from an asked 5k.
Do I think he sat down to make some Ode to SJW? No. But these people didn't "latch onto" the popular thing, these people completely funded and generated awareness of the popular thing.
No one as deep into Homestuck as Toby Fox and his early fans were could say they were ignorant of the SJW types.

>>317933930
The attempt to silence journalists who attempt to push an agenda can be interpreted as censorship. And yes, the group did have people trying to do that.
Besides, Toby added that because as much as he wants to tell off the journalists who try to use his game to show there's clearly an agenda, he also does not want to look like he's on the side of Gamergate. Most devs don't want that now.
>>317938669
Undertale isn't a social justice nigger game, that's fags pushing their agenda. It's a fine enough game if you get it for free.

It's just another flash in the pan indie game. It'll be hot for a few months or as long as the leftist crowd wants to carry it before they grow weary and move on.
Right now it's time to join the fight against the PC leftist extremists trying to censor any and all free thought that doesn't fall in line with their mindset.
I don't think any year has pushed me further from the left center and towards right center than this year has. I honestly may vote for a conservative candidate next year at this point.

well, the game was funded on kikestarter for 50 Gs. for its minuscule exposure before release to its explosion upon release, calling it a crazy success is accurate. Toby will be able to live off of this money for decades, and the next game he makes will garner a lot of attention.

Are you really comparing Undertale to MGSV? Do I need to tell you why that makes you a retard?

> Toriel's plan
Actually, if you play close attention to what she said, she was actually calling Asgore in his cowardice: Asgore chose by himself to declare war with humanity (Toriel left him because of that) but he quickly regretted it. He was afraid of turning back on his word however, so he choose to keep everyone in the underground waiting and secretly hoping that humans wouldn't come there, even through he could have gone outside when he got the first soul.
That was the reason she called him out, not because she wanted war with humanity.
>>317941458
Why did they give her a not-fish face when she's a fish face
>>317941554
Is she confirmed lesbian? Was there any confirmation she only likes girls?

>Battle system is irrelevant; it's a walking simulator.
Earthbound was my favorite walking simulator. I think it was much better than any Phantasy Star or Final Fantasy brand walking simulator, which as we all know are superior to walking simulators such as grand theft auto - even if those do have the 'walk on the pedal of an automobile' mechanic.
I'm off to play Euro Walking Simulator 2 now, so please don't bother replying.

Why the fuck are you comparing furries with SJWs?
Most furries are horny men with a laundry list of fetishes that almost always includes rape, 90% of them have no time for SJWs.
Furries are contemptible, but calling them SJWs is like randomly deciding that people who work in gas stations are SJWs.
>>317923875
If it's true, at least it does it right.
>>317943425
He even stuck said fursona into an obscure corner of the game that can only be accessed on one day of the year and only at a certain hour.

>>317943786
>Apparently some furries are also SJW's. Not surprised in the slightest if true.
Some furries are, but the vast majority are not. Hence the gas-station worker comparison - sure, at least one SJW manages to brave their triggers and work in the dead dinosaur blood distributors in spite of the problematic and troubling nature of white supremacist wars for oil in the area called 'the middle east' by eurocentric assholes, performed by the military which still doesn't enlist enough women into high ranking (non combat) positions, but that doesn't mean all people who work in gas stations are SJWs.
>>317943605
>>317943786
Considering Iknow a fewand they actually do talk about "progressiveness" I kinda would consider them to be a part of that.
I'm sure undertale isn't trying to be a progressive SJW feminist lesbo game. In fact, it doesn't shove any of it in your face. Not even ONCE a character says "I AM A GIRL WHO LIKES GIRLS". It just goes at its own pace and tells you some facts. The genius lizard could pretty much be male, it doesn't really matter as apart from pronouns they never tout her as a "smart girl".
The problem is you are trying to judge the game based on its fanbase, which it's bullshit, because all tumblrinas and faggots clung on to the game thinking it was a bastion of free thinking, when it isn't, at all. Core points are time travel, saving/loading, bad puns and diverse characters (as in monsters, humans, ghosts and whatnot, all with their own quirky personalities).
Really it's hard to appreciate this game if you come into /v/ before beating it 100%
>>317944192
>I'm sure undertale isn't trying to be a progressive SJW feminist lesbo game.
It's literally made by a homestuck
>>317943975
I forgive her
>>317944346
Then you're not really judging the game on its own merits, but on some petty /v/ hivemind opinion? That's how children think. Sorry about you being a dumb fucking retard.

Well you see, this is the video game board, for the posting of video games. We're not going to ban every game that has a goat or a dog or a fox in a spaceship just because you feel guilty about your cock getting tingly feelings when you look at your mother's Pomeranian.

>>317928775
I was interested in the game at first because of how good everyone was saying it was. But then I started seeing the meme-spouting in the threads, quoting the characters, and making shitty shops with them and I began to dislike the game because the humor seemed pretty fucking lame. So I ended up never touching the game, not because of people calling it "tumblrtale" but because of the people who played it never shutting the fuck up about it and pushing the game's seemingly awful humor.
>>317929389
I didn't know it was a competition.
Remember, whining for absolute equality between all characters in every game is literal SJW behavior.
>getting this mad about a game made by one person
You people aren't interesting, you're not funny, you're bad sports, not honest; you react the way you think you're supposed to react, you're not creative, and no amount of shit posting on /v/ is going to stop you from hating what you see in your water stained mirror.

Don't pretend dykes aren't among the most physically tough people out there. Also I'm pretty sure she said Asgore whooped her fairly consistently, and that she only got one hit in on him.
In the optimal world I feel like the game would be in the territory of "comes up in discussion and get a slow thread every once in a while but isn't actively talked or complained about" since the game itself doesn't have anything that hasn't already been discussed to death and the buzz around it revolves either around a fanbase that has gotten to the point it exists as a separate entity apart of the original game and complaining about irrelevant qualities people have branded the game with. Especially since the chances for new content for the game seem so slim now and Toby has moved on.

Sans is weak as fuck. He can only do 1 damage. He's only hard because he increases how often you take hits by ignoring your invincibility frames. He's super fast and resorts to game breaking but he's no fighter.

What is getting hated however is the belief that "muh mary sue womyn who don't need no man", no boobs/cute whatsoever and gays/tranny 6th-gender kin need to be in everything. People are just getting overly paperskinned.

Gay knights aren't political.they're historicaland the 'feminist themes' are tumblr people projecting, they're not intentional.
undyne/alphys is a result of anime, not watching the suffragettes.
>>317948912
The gay knights are literally joke characters.
Was going to consider pirating it but now I don't want to have anything to do with it.

Okay.
>>317949597
>overly difficulty bullet hell mechanics
What the fuck game did you play?
>>317938236
It's inspired by bullet hells but it's more of a schmup combined with Wario Ware-esque mini games. Toby was going for an accessible bullethell that anybody can play and beat. You could call it a bullet lite, I guess.
>>317949597
>overly difficult
jesus christ anon, get better at video games
>>317949454
I agree. My god I see now this game is only praised because it's LOL QUIRKY and progressive. It's why that fucking movie coming out about a trans person will win millions of awards. Fuck games like this.
You know I wonder if Earthbound had been released today it would have gotten the same reaction.
>>317949594
She knocked him over tbf
You guys are terrible pretending to say "this game is meme" just to fit with the others. But come on, this is just 2015 neo /v/, I can't ask so much from you guys. You don't event know yume nikki is. Also, fuck the reviewers. Pic related.

WHAT ABOUT IT IS PROGRESSIVE?
>>317949805
No fucking doubt.
Then again, half these "tmblgaymemes" wouldn't exist without it.
>>317923875
Why feminism and LGBTTTT are progressive?
I think is not
Progressive is only a word and not a reality.

/v/ loves Mother 3, but if Mother 3 released this year it would be shat on as a homo-pandering feminist feelsy meme game
>gay transvestites that play a massive role in the story
>strong pink haired masculine independent woman
>crippled/disabled dude who's independent
>baww sob story about family members dying and how corporations and industry is evil
It's a GOAT game but if it came out today the exact same way it came out originally, people on /v/ would call it SJW propaganda.
>>317950069
This one of the rare games where you literally get out of it however much effort/thought you put into it. There's progressive themes in the game, but you have to look for it.
>>317950069
well it's going to ruin the next generation of indie games
that's progressive in a sense
>>317950201
fuck, Asgore*
>>317950069
It has gay characters
Literally fucking Frankfurt school in here. Can you believe the degenerate audacity to actually include gay characters in a videographic electronic entertainment medium that might be served up to children?
>>317950281
undertale is less progressive than mother 3 desu
Undertale is a great thing to play and the ending was quite a spectacle.
But my personal GOTY is Grow Home.
>>317950069
It has a lesbian weeb lizard girl and a gay couple that's basically a throwaway dude broshower joke
People liked the game so the natural conclusion to draw is that gamers secretly love feminazism and need it rammed down their throats more often
>>317923875
Pretty sure Undermeme didn't even make it to the second round of the actually GOTY poll.
>>317950306
FNAF, Amnesia, and the insane amount of "x simulator" games already started the diwnward trend.
>>317950069
SJWs have misinterpreted Toby including a lesbian couple and gay couple as SJW pandering but in actuality he just has a yuri and yaoi fetish. See >>317931765
>>317950375
Ive had my eye on it. What do you like about it?
>>317949805
Show me where the gays are in earthbound. And don't say Tony, there is no solid proof.
>>317950505
Itoi confirmed that Tony is gay.
>>317950505
>there is no solid proof.
Except the creator literally saying he's gay. :^)
>>317950505
They're a central plot element in mother 3
>>317931765
>Gamergate
>Authoritarian
That's literally the opposite of what it is, unless Toby supports unadulterated cronyism.
>>317923875
AHHAHAHHA
>GOTY /v/ 2015
Anyone who likes Undertale, please go back to Tumblr.
>>317950669
Can't blame Toby for thinking gamergate is authoritarian considering the media paints them as a boogeyman who wants to silence women in vidya
At least he dislikes SJWs.
>>317950669
I wish I could convince myself both GG and SJWs were pretending to be ignorant to advance their own positions, instead of genuinely deluded.
Large sections of GG go beyond the 'muh fix gaming journalism' into 'stop writing bullshit feminist articles i don't like!!!', which does have an authoritarian streak. People do have the right to write political bullshit.

I am a person that loves the exploration aspect of games more than anything else.
And Grow Home is basically pure gameplay, with only a very minimal story (quite unlike Undertale). Plus, the movement is quite interesting and it's wonderful to soar through the sky with the tools you get during your vertical journey.
The current sale price is perfect for the game, it will take you around 5~6h to do everything in it.
>>317930098
>not liking boys with long hair
>>317949805
It would have a cancerous Tumblr fanbase. It wouldn't be as bad though because Earthbound is a Jap game and they don't give a shit about agendas. Few compare to the egos of western devs.
>>317950791
The thing is that happens to every fucking movement ever.
If everyone dropped out because of extremities, the concept of law wouldn't exist in the first place.
>>317951093
>implying hulk isn't bald as hell up top
>>317923875
It's because /v/ is reddit and tumblr.
>>317950579
>>317950620
>look it up
Holy shit
Game ruined, get your progressive bullshit out of herewell at least it isn't every other character like tumblrfail
>>317951140
undertale doesn't really push a progressive agenda either, toby's outright said he didn't include gays or lesbians to look progressive but because he's a degenerate who's into yaoi and yuri. see >>317931765
>See Undertale on /v/, everyone says it's great
>Play it myself, it's fucking amazing
>Give my friends the pirate link, they absolutely love it
>Some of them buy it to support the dev
>One guy never plays it, says it's shit while parroting "tumblrtale! tumblrtale!"
It's pretty funny seeing /v/ shitposters out of anonymity.
>>317951168
The extreme sections of both 'SJW' (which isn't a coherent movement) and GG (which is) are far too large to ignore.
>>317951284
YOU SHOWED THEM BRO
*BRO FISTS*
get these gays and fagots out of my /V/
>>317951284
Mother 3 is leagues more progressive than Undertale lad.
>>317930098
>mothers of Europe and America would rather kill than sending him to school with hair like that
The fuck are you talking about lad? I had hair like that through school and high-school and if you go back to about the 70s, a huge number of boys did.
the character is intentionally ambiguous.
>>317951325
You read that and believed it? Are you fucking high?

>>317951557
It's being discussed on a bunch of undertale communities, lad, not just this thread. are you living under a fucking rock?
>>317951643
That was when it was first released, before the shitposters noticed it was getting popular.
>There's no place for politics in videogames
>To demonstrate this, I will refuse to play a game with incidental gay characters because politically, i find homosexuality distasteful
>>317951695
calm down lad. you're in /v/
>>317951712
It was actually before people got from middle to end game.
For example, I played the demo and then brought the game because of Toriel. But I started really regretting it when I got at Hotland.
>>317951557
To be fair, back on starman.net in 2009 Toby posted his top 10 list of favorite anime and among them were Yaoi and yuri romances.
He's just a weeb. SJWs are twisting his game into SJW propaganda.
>>317951735
Don't forget games like democracy 3. :^)
Would the title of that article be wrong if it said "The Fallout series" instead of Undertale?
>>317933001
Its just the shitposters anon. There is literally 2 or 3 in this thread working overtime to derail this thread.
Dont worry, a lot of people like Undertale
>>317951869
Strings of notes that are shared between songs. The maker of the image never gave a map for which number is what track.
>>317951887
Yeah, that was my original point. I like Toby's EB hack a lot (even if the writing was garbage), but his fanbase is terrible. I really wish they'd stay off-of /v/ and stick to tumblr, but what can you do?
>>317950198
Fuck you nigger I'm a Nintendo boi and I'd take Bloodborne as GOTY over Undertale any day
Fuck this indie trash and fuck everyone here supporting that shit
>>317952064
Toby's EB hack is worth mentioning
The guy everyone's accusing of being a SJW gave a character the dialog: 'TL;DR, eat shit and die faggots'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Roj4PBkhkJo
Are you reade?
>>317952185
Yeah. Then again, he was like, 13 or 14.
>>317951374
>Which isn't a coherent movement
Radical liberalism mixed with the newest wave of feminism. Similar to Puritan Christian ideals where their obligations come from a rebellion against older philosophies than an assumption of a truly more positive outcome of society.
This describes like 80% of them at least.
And that's a load of shit for GG. In fact, that's what killed it. Not just ignoring the guilt by association garbage when all you have to do is SCREAM LOUDER THAN THEM.
>>317952276
violet > kumatora > my hemorrhoid > undyne
>>317951686
That's cool as hell. I wonder if he made the story or music first?
>>317944757
Furfags have been on 4chan since its creation
>>317952064
His fanbase is garbage, lad, but the game itself is alright. undertale's been slightly hyped on /v/ since the demo back in 2013
>>317952185
toby's been apolitical/neutral about the whole SJW/Feminist/Gamergate debacle, lad. He's tumblr/carebear as fuck but he's just an autistic weeb, hardly a SJW.
>>317952371
He probably wrote it at the same time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ifTrPws0Dc
Probably the most surprising one.
>>317952384
I should know lad, i was the one hyping it. wew
>>317952342
Well fuck you and your quality taste
>>317952384
>neutral
He's outright said that he dislikes all sides of gamergate and wants to stay out of it and out of vidya politics in general,
>this entire thread turns from undertale hate to toby's a cool guy with a bad fanbase

>>317952847There is no such thing as a good fanbase, and if you really think you're part of one, you're a narcissist.
>tfw really like Earthbound and Undertale
>tfw the autistic fanbases overlap witch eachother and homosuck
>tfw kumatora and undyne are my waifus
>all the cringeworthy tumblr art of both
>>317952710
i mean, feminist articles don't really hold any weight if no one really pays any attention to them. What's the worst they could do, not buy a certain game? Advocate people not buy a certain game? Works well for GTA, cause people still buy the game in droves
What we can learn from Toby is that people ought to make the game they want to make and leave it at that, doesn't matter if they are SJWs or not, because the ones who truly love video games will make genuinely good video games, and that's all that really matters
>>317952962
This is false
>>317953006
overlap with*
>>317953025
But we've always known this, lad.
>>317952854
Have you tried restarting the game, anon?
You should.
>>317953006
you have good taste in waifu

>>317952854
It's supposed to do that. Keep playing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dg80cqYACw
>>317953218
so then the people posting "tumblrtale" are just idiots then, whatever
>>317953316
Now it some unkillable boss, more GOTY material
So glad I pirated it and didn't waste and cash on this shit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHNSEQ8uC9s
>>317953387
It's pretty clear that toby wanted to make a tumblrtale game, lad. Whether or not tumblr is SJW when it comes to homestuck and Undertale is a different issue.
>>317953463
>dying on Giga-Flower
the moral i would draw from /v/ loving undertale is that actually /v/ doesn't care so much about progressive shit, as it cares about good games
it's a good game that has all the shit /v/ stereotypically hates, but on account of the fact that it's a good game it gets a pass
make less shit games and more good games and i won't give a shit how many transgender black disabled refugees are in them
