I have it, haven't got around to playing it though. Definitely seems lovely, however, I've heard a lot of good things about it.
 
I can say it is one of the most interesting games I've played. I really enjoyed it. Although, the lasting appeal is very short unless you're the kind of person who wants to go back and play each and every route.
 
I like it well enough. The music is fantastic and I can't help but like Papyrus and Sans.

As far as all of the posts regarding its fanbase are concerned? A good rule of thumb is to acknowledge that all fandoms are terrible and ruin everything, so you should try to look at the work in its own light instead of letting its fans influence you one way or the other. I for one don't associate with this fanbase or any fanbase of any other media.

And yeah, I agree with BluePikachu47 that the poll is missing an "I liked it" or "Indifferent" option. It's all right, but not the best thing ever.

I think you just edit the original post.

Anyways, I've never played it myself but I saw a video of the first 25 minutes or so of the game.. Looks interesting to me but.. Eh..

I haven't played it so don't have much of a opinion. Will try it eventually though, given how popular it's become...hopefully I'm not let down!
 
I haven't played it, but I heard the gameplay is unique and the characters are interesting? I'd like to play it someday, but I have so many games in my backlog so uh... I play it next time.

I find Undertale a bit overrated though. I feel like it's just one of those "flavor of the month" games like FNAF, and only the crazy fans would keep on blabbering about the game even if the game ain't getting some fresh new content and new fans. I'm giving the game and the fandom 1 month until a ludicrous amount of weird fetish art and bad OCs begin to burst. Who knows, maybe Undertale might join or even beat the likes of Sonic, MLP, and FNAF when it comes to cringeworthy fan works!

Crazy confession: I like the box, but the amount of NSFW fanart is cuh-ray-zee.
 
Yep! I don't think I could ever go genocide run. I love everyone too much ;-;

ohh i dont think you can get a true pacifist on your first run, you'll probably go fight the neutral boss then you can do true pacifist

on your first run you should do a neutral, then pacifist, then if youre up for it genocide
 
Undertale is one of those games where I was sick of it before I even knew what it was.

Good work, Undertale fanbase...



But realistically, it just has one of those types of fanbases with an extremely vocal and biased minority of rabid fanboys who ruin it for everybody else. Pretty much like the FNaF or Sonic fanbases.

I love Sonic, but the fanbase makes me sick to my stomach. I tried joining the SEGA forums for it and I deleted my account within the first hour or so. Don't even get me started on the Deviantart portion of it. I'm afraid to see what the bad part of the Undertale fanbase is like. I just keep to myself mainly and look at occasional comics so I don't let others ruin it for me.
 
i haven't encountered that much bad people in the fandom to be honest

also yes i am obsessed with mettaton get over it
 
Undertale is okay.
I watched Joel, the Vinesauce streamer play it. I wouldn't have any interest in it if it weren't for him tbh.
my interest is kinda on the minimal side. while I like RPGs and the games that Undertale reminds me of(the Mother series, OFF), it's really... not totally my thing. a cute facade with a few too many not so cute things within, it ended up disappointing me in that regard.
I can admit, I'd like to play it someday, but not for a while. I'm burned out without having played it.
I think the soundtrack is top-notch, though. I was stuck on listening to it for a while.

the true ending rubbed me the wrong way with Asriel's sudden appearance and that choice to forgive him. I don't like Asriel. he's only one of 2 characters I don't like in the game. the other is Mettaton, for anyone who's curious. I just. really hate Mettaton's character. so much.
I know Asriel's loved by like, everyone and they're all like "precious baby" and whatever... but I was so annoyed and... I guess disturbed? by the way things went down and you're just suddenly given the choice to forgive this little ****. like, no. you don't deserve that yet. give me some more time. but I seem to be the only one who thinks this way, so whatever.
I do know that there is context from the tapes in the true lab and the whole story in new home, but... that wasn't enough for me to get to know this character or fully understand his attachment to Chara which made the tantrum ensue, etc.
I know it's funny and might seem hypocritical with it only taking me... maybe 10 minutes to get attached to Toriel, but I have a soft spot for mother figures.

Heh, I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds such fan bases annoying.

Realistically though guys, in every popular thing out there, there's always going to have a stupid portion of the fan community that's honestly going to make people cringe.

Undertale's no worse than the Mario, Sonic, My Little Pony, FNAF etc. cringe worthy part of the communities.

I will admit Undertale's a wonderful game because of its story, battle system and character development involved into the game, but goddamn, it's overrated like **** (It's not a terrible thing but its been getting too much credit) and the fact it's winning "GOTY" competitions is a little crazy.

The game's a really wonderful play and I'd suggest it to many people, but I would never call it GOTY worthy, unless it gets a sequel to top the original, I would very much doubt me thinking otherwise.

I think another reason it became so popular is pretty much one guy made the whole thing with a little assistance on the side. I'm surprised it's gotten a lot of votes for the GOTY. I can think of much better ones I've played this year. I just hope its popularity doesn't get to the point where everyone starts suddenly hating it.
