Yes.
just do it you faggot

>>321371923
I'm not sure what's worse. Retards intentionally making Undertale threads to get a reaction or autists continually getting butthurt by them, thus continuing the cycle.
>>
>>321371826
I just bought it, OP. Played about 15 minutes of it. It's okay so far. Music is nice. Writing is okay. Gameplay is sufficient. I don't know; seems okay.
>>
Why does everyone hate Undertale again??
>>
>>321371826
it's a good game, not goty, not great, just good.
>>
stop please
stop with this meme game
when will it end
>>
>>321372234
Probably a few weeks
>>
>>321371826
I bought it when the sale started and just beat it.
If you have any interest in the game, any at all, buy it. I believe its a game everyone should experience.
>>
Yes, definitely. It's the best game ever made.
>>
Yes, it's probably the best game released this year, it's just a meme to hate it on /v/ since it's popular

It's popular and tries to do something different. Early on it actually got a lot of love from /v/ for its multiple endings

What is up with the massive wave of false flagging on /v/ in general lately? And I mean clearly obvious wojack threads, etc.

just go to pirate bay and torrent it.

Yea I remember a shit ton of threads talking about sparing toriel and shit a long time ago. I hate how sometimes /v/ hates on a game just because its popular. You guys have some good taste and shit, and are right about alot of things like F4 being trash , but when you hate on a game ony becuase its a "meme" game, and its a "meme" game because its populer, others will think your just being contrarian when a new actual shit popular game comes around.

No, and you also shouldn't flood the catalog with shitty Undertale threads.
>>
I'd say yes but there's a demo where you can decide for yourselves.
This thread is probably a false flag thread though.
>>
>>321373389
yeah it's not like he worked and put in effort to actually make the game, right?
>>
>>321372984
Multiple endings are far from new, anon.
>>
>>321373702
I don't think he's talking about multiple endings
>>
Yes, despite the weird fanbase it has its still a solid, fun game.
>>
No idea if OP is for real or just trying to stir the pot, but yes you should buy it.

I just bought it and it's been pretty fun. The gameplay is actually enjoyable (which I wasn't expecting) and the story seems fine. I'm not really sure what the fuck's going on to be honest, but it seems like the kinda game that gets replayed a bit.

It's also like, $7 or $8 right now. That's a pretty meager amount of money.

Hotlands was hot garbage and anything to do with the genocide route is half-assed. Story is generic weak trash where friendship triumphs
The only effort put in was the music.

Just kill yourself. That's so pathetic.

I didn't mean it in that way, I meant, why spend even a dime for something like that. Moreover UT would have won regardless.

you should pirate it. not good enough for real money

No get a good 2d game like Shovel Knight or something
>>
>>321377340
fuck. seconding shovel knight.

also would recommend Castle in the Darkness

>>321371826
You should get one way heroics. It has actual replay value.

This

I also recommend Broforce and Downwell.

The problem with saying shit like "play the demo" is that the demo is about 5 times better than the entire rest of the game.

It's false advertising. Everything past the demo is generic, unfunny, and filled with dank memes. The characters are all utterly one-note, and crammed with "references" that feel more like plagiarism.

The story is bland and nonsensical, the game is incredibly short, especially for something that requires as little effort to create as this, and the final boss is literally programmed directly for the Tumblr audience, it pretends to attack you until you kill it through cutscene power.
>>
>>321371826
I would pirate it first or try the demo. In spite of all the shilling and rabid fan bois, it's a mediocre game with forced humor.
>>
>>321379442
>game is short
>8 dollars for about 14 hours of story
what standards are you running on?
>>
>>321380137
You're kidding, right? It's like 3 hours long, tops. If someone tells you the only ending that isn't a total waste of time depends on you not killing anyone, you're done in no time.

Revisiting the same shit 3 times because you're stupid doesn't somehow make the game 3 times longer.
>>
>>321379442
Yeah, that's exactly how I felt about the game as well. The demo really reeled me in, but the game turned out to be mostly a shallow joke punctuated with bland character drama. The fact that Undertale is being so widely herald as a ground breaking video game shows just what a sad state the industry is in.
>>
>>321380627
>only 3 hours long
you haven't played the game. Please stop shitposting.
>>
>>321380638
The standards for stories in video games in the west are utterly abysmal, probably because most of the industry is made up of failed writers.

>>321380683
That's about how long it is. Maybe you can tack on an extra hour if you count all the boring cutscenes that take 5 minutes for a gag that could be done in 20 seconds, and all of the dumb optional bullshit where you interact with annoying characters you don't care about, you could boost it up to 4 hours.
>>
>>321380683
3 hours long is as much of an understatement as 14 hours is an overstatement. The game's probably 7 to 8 hours long.
>>
It's 100% off on pirate bay, go for it.
>>
>>321380958
i took 7-8 hours on my first playthrough. Genocide was a little longer(im bad at videogames). Honestly, I would say 14 hours is an understatement.
>>
While I though Undertale was a mediocre game, it's cool to see such a small time developer become so hugely successful.
>>
>>321381171
I don't think the money could ever wash away the shame of releasing a shitty game that panders to the worst possible crowd.

I'd legitimately feel better about some babyfur inflation game. At least the guy would be making something obviously for himself.

In the case of something like UT, wouldn't it just make you ashamed to be a man? I'd probably kill myself if I was that guy.
>>
>>321371826
No.

You're retarded if you have to ask this question
>>
>>321381723
If I had the choice between making 20 dollars on something I loved, and a few million on something I hated, I'd take the first option, every time.

Artistic integrity is a million times more important than recognition.

>>321381729
90% of threads would disagree with you there.

>>321381729
But Neo-/V/ loves it.

>>321380627
>it's like 3 hours long, tops.
>The fastest speed run is 2 hours

>He legitimately thinks the game's average playtime is one hour longer than the fastest a human can play it
>>
>>321381869
That's all fine and dandy but artistic integrity doesn't put a roof over your head, as I'm sure Toby is laughing all the way to the bank
>>
>>321381729
>But /v/ hates the game
majority of /v/ slobs on this game's cock. A few bitter detractors doesn't change that. If /v/ hated it, these threads wouldn't almost consistently reach autosage in split arguments.
>>
>>321381920
You do realise it's that long because you can't mess with the movement speed or cutscenes?

An extra hour is huge, especially when it's almost impossible to die and lose any time.
>>
>>321382051
>i dont read the text and a story driven game

Acquire loyal wife
Produce many children

The best way you can contribute to the future, and to your race, is to have lots of children and raise them well.
Go dood!

I know you don't read very often, but you really should.

>>321382232
now you're just being a memer dude. We both know that reading the dialog will make the game way longer than 3 hours

Nobody successful enjoys Undertale, nobody is going to fall for your story.

Bringing them into what seems to be an already damned world?
Not sure if I want to do that.

These things are never even slightly accurate.

>>321382629
this is accurate for at least 80% of the games in my steam library

>>321382629
6 hours (normal) and 4 1/2 hours (rushed) seems a reasonable estimate.

>>321371826
No, steal it like every other self respecting person did.
>>
>>321382439
Undertale as approximately 170 pages of dialog. At average human reading speed, if you were to read non-stop, have absolutely no delay between words appearing and never re-read any text, it would take you roughly 2 hours.
>>
>>321371826
no its a meme game xDD
:3
>>
>>321382356
They exist you just have to go busting down doors until you can find a pure maiden wife.

Yes, buy it.

It's a unique, simple, and charming game. I believe the ending (s) could've been done better, but its definitely a fantastic game.

I went into it thinking it was memesforlife because of /v/, but they're assholes and hate it when people experience something unique that isn't only known by an elitist communty.

Games good, just play it. Soundtrack is also top notch.
