Stuck on what I assume is the final boss, not sure how to progress without killing him but don't want to spoil anything by looking it up. If anyone could give me a non-spoily hint…
No.3929

And no, that's not the final boss.

I played through the demo once and it looks somewhat interesting. I can't shake the feeling that I missed out on quite a lot of content, but maybe my decisions meant nothing and I just beelined for the only real available option.
No.3934
>>3930Exactly what choices did you made?
No.3936
>>3929Thanks! I completed it. That was a pretty awesome game.
No.3937
>>3934I don't know if they were real choices to begin with, but I'll try to keep it vague. I was in general distrustful towards everything and everyone I encountered. As a six-year-old who fell into the abyss, I chose to keep in mind what my parents taught me and not trust any strangers.
So, I turned down my free experience. I did not take any candies. I don't think I could have refused the cell phone, so I used it quite a bit. I made an unlikely friend. I never explored the area to the right of the house. I did not wait for the gift to be ready and insisted to be brought back home at once. I shattered the white heart, but that was purely on accident.
Later today, I came back to the game and tried to play God.
Anyway, what I got was unexpected. The demo definitely got me interested in what happens next. I'll be sure to play the full game once I get my hands on it.
No.3939
>>3937Also, I've just noticed, but I'm absolutely sure that thing wasn't originally there
in the instruction for the demo version of the game. The "last modified" date on the file confirms that. There's something odd going on with it. Some dialogue was altered when I played the demo from the start for the second time. Intriguing! I think I have to play it a few more times and see if I can get something else to change.
No.3942
>>3939If you want a straight up answer [spoiler]yes, the game does some serious meta fuckery. And the full version does it 10 fold. If you enjoy the demo, the full version of the game far exceeds it.
Also the choices are by no means arbitrary. How you play can dramatically affect the game.[/spoiler]
No.3943
Been playing it obsessively over the past half a week. Game's AMAZING. It's packed with tons of different secrets and Easter eggs, then the whole spare/kill aspect really delivers, and changes certain things in a playthrough a lot (especially if you go toward one extreme or the other). You know a lot of people loved and were impressed by the fight at the end of the demo? Every major boss fight is just as good, and I'd say some are even better. The game's also got great humor all over the place (even in most of the battles and a lot of item descriptions/use text).
This is one game everyone here should play.
No.3948
>>3943>This is one game everyone here should play.This, in a nutshell. I wish I were better at explaining things so I could tell you why I found it so good. Just go grab the demo if you're undecided. I can promise you that the full game is much, much, M-U-C-H better than it.

I've seen enough of this shit to just stop caring. Why are you even on tumblr, anyway?
No.4032
>>4031>TumblrWhen did I mention that stinky craphole? Some people in this site are very obsessed with Tumblr.
Indie game websites, forums and steam is where you go to get a serious(sometimes) reference or review.
Example of something hated for being popular? I bet MLP would love that one, as if that excuse removed the fact that the product became vomitive because of it.
Is MLP really that bad? I don't think so, it's a cartoon aimed at kids and nothing else.
This game is being praised and that's okay, but they put it the same level of mastery than Yume Nikki, Earthbound and others.
It's fashion and it's cool to talk about it, for that reason the critics everywhere will use it as traffic device, the critics will be good, and they will be shared and "reblogged".
For that reason ↑, not because the game is any good, something similar happens when a shitty youtuber likes a game and it becomes trend because of it, this case isn't even that bad because Undertale is decent, but I saw very, VERY shitty ones being in the hot trend of the month for popularity and not actual content. Ask yourself if the game is there because it is good, or because of fashions.
So it's "not another hated celebrity" Anon.

No.4045
>>4042Actually the OFF thread is "go back to tumblr; tumblr gaem memey; tumblr game of the month yay"
Here we're discussing how overhyped this game is, that overrated fame makes people buy the game like
>>4037 and they find a meh game.
I personally think Off didn't have this problem for… Obvious reasons, and Off was overrated, but it was good and entertaining, people could like it or not but no one could say Off was boring back then, but just read the bad reviews Undertale has on it's own steam page.
>Be on website and see how everyone shares Undertale content>Go to Steam see 98% love rate>How can this fail? Get hyped and buy it because of it>Find yourself in a world of dense battles, trial and error, no challenge and a lot of memes trying too hard to be installed.>I should have bought the soundtrack, it's much better than the game.>Eat your anger.I post this because I played the game, it's popularity isn't even the problem, the problem is that it's popularity is a bait, for a game that isn't bad, but you bought it because of the hype.
So there is a clear difference between Off thread and this, that was shitposting for the sake of retarded laughs and tumblr shaming, this is about Undertale's misleading fame which makes you buy something.
See pic for a good laugh.
No.4047
>>4045but anon-kun, I bought it because I knew about it for years, loved the demo, and loved the game.
maybe it's possible that people can have different experiences than you. and while your opinions are valid and worth discussing, shitposting is just shitposting.

A valid and serious complaint was responded with "HURR ANON COMPLAINZ BOUT TUMBLR IM BUTTHURT CAUSE 2 YERS AGO HURR UR SHITPOSTING"
Play fair.
But well, I agree on that, playing the demo would have prevented the bad moment, I thought reading reviews would be enough, but I learned my lesson, and it's not ALL bad, the soundtrack is beast, and the art is charming enough for this kind of game.

>>4058Way to twist words anon…
>was shitting on a game Liar.
>because of reviewsSince the very beggining of the argument the fake-hype was the whole point, now the reviews are relevant? You can't judge a game based on a demo, and given it's being compared to Earthbound, Yume Nikki and others, following the critics is perfectly understandable.
The point is, it's sold like a masterpiece by the fans, and it's just another average meh game.
The point is not even that the fans act like horrid mlp tier hostile monsters, and the only ones mentioning Tumblr ITT were the fans and ebig meme image posters.
No.4062
>>4060I don't see you discussing the game either. You could easily ignore it all and start something.
Seriously, everyone jumping at someone's throat screaming "SHITPOSTING" could easily ignore it all and keep discussing a thread. In fact, nothing of this would have happened if you guys just ignored the obvious bait and didn't cry when someone didn't like the game either.

No.4066
I agree with the bad critics, it's overrated the battles were just too dense, not even hard, just dense, as if you just wanted to finish em just to see what happens next.
It's a well made game and there is effort on it, but poorly executed, got me bored after 30 minutes and tries way too hard to be funny.
Oh damn Alphys kill it, it feels like the game tries to be more than it actually is.
No.4067
>>4062Tried to earlier with
>>3943 but good point. Also guess my last post might've been as overhyping it, though I still think a lot here would enjoy it if they gave it a chance.
I also only said "everyone should play", never said you had to buy.Not very good at starting discussion (and not much to respond to with how quickly the argument overshadowed things), but well, what do those that played it think of some of the game's many secrets? Anyone see Sans secret room
by reloading 4 times just after talking to him in the final corridor on a Pacifist/neutral run? Anyone else been having Fun with the game?
>>4063It didn't for awhile, but look at
>>3975 onward. One guy kneejerk reacting to an old joke then a bunch pointlessly arguing, similar to this thread. Only reason I figured it was probably 2-3 people is way it went down is pretty similar.
No.4068
>>4059>>4061That's true, guess they weren't shitting on the game. There's just so much shit being flung its hard to tell whos posting what anymore.
As for the game it seems interesting but idk if I care enough to play it. Maybe eventually.
No.4070
>>4067>but look at >>3975 onward.Anon, I don't want to disappoint you, but that's a salty faggot getting overheated by the "misuse" of a meme somebody posted ironically back 2 years ago, and he's not even complaining because it was shitting the thread but because MUH MEMES. Also, if you read more carefully, you will notice the people who started it were doing the same thing people was doing here with all the complaining and "STP SHTPOSTING PLSSSS DONT DO EET BACK TO /V/!", not "2 or 3" spirits who work 24/7 on "hating on muh vidya". And, what's funnier, in the last post I call bullshit on 'em because they were fighting against ghosts from 2 years in the past, pretty much what I also said in this thread.
Just ig-no-re. People shit like this because fangirls eat the bait. If anybody here thought people trolling are dumb and complained about it, they're actually the biggest fools in this thread.
Also, just to not hijack the thread anymore, I played it and didn't like it. It's okay, but not really that great either.

I don't know if I really want to perform a true reset. I've only beaten the game once and got the best ending I could ever wish for. At the same time, I want to see what the hidden
hard mode is about…
I enjoyed the way little details interconnect and form a grander picture. For example, at one point in the game you can read in a book about monster funerals how they scatter the dust of their dead on the things they liked when they were alive, which causes a part of them to live on in those objects. The implications of that come in much, much later.

One day all of these sites are flooded with endless loads of the same thing, I don't mind if there is just tumblr or reddit, it's common to see brony type fandoms there, but it's everywhere.
They do the same things as always, saying it's at classic games' level of quality or even better.
I know fanboyism is toxic, you asked me if someone bothered me, well yeah, when you disagree if they say Undertale is the new Earthbound they send you to /v/ with maximum hostility.
Fucking okay, I go to /v/ then, and I see this
>>4046 I say it's always the same people because they react the same always, I hope this answered your question, and again, this is just my personal experience.
About the game itself, there isn't much to say, I just played the demo, you can't judge a game by its demo, but I saw the rest on youtube, the thing is an okay'ish game, it's definitely not worth 10 bucks and the art is gross, but it's absolutely not bad either, you can get tons of better games for free, there is a thread full of them in this same page and board.
