So I started watching Cry play it.... got hooked and now I've stopped watching it before I spoil too much of the game for myself. I'm going to get the game (hopefully) tomorrow and start playing it myself.
It's funny, because when I first saw it on Steam, it didn't really appeal to me. Then as hype formed, I wandered back to it and found it interesting and charming. It looks like such a cute game and with what I've heard from others... it sounds like my sort of game. XD I hope to be enjoying it very soon.

Ooh, have fun! "Cute" though, is not what I'd call Undertale after seeing all the secrets it has to offer~
Simply put, the game has true depth. The game literally completely changes when you pick the "lighter" or "darker" options. None of that false "light/dark" system that plagues many a Triple-A title where really the only benefit is a faction-exclusive area. If you play the game without harming a single soul, you'll have a very happy game with charming characters and, while it is super cheesy, it has a very nice charm to it. However, if you feel the urge to kill, the game becomes very dark (to the point of being outright scary at times) and, while I don't personally know what happens.. I've heard that you're gonna have a bad time. Not only that but the game has a lot of nice hidden touches which really tie the world together too (like figuring out the reason why Toriel won't answer your phone calls once you leave the Ruins) - it's truly a well-crafted experience, and it shows.
Also the characters are awesome and hilarious and why anyone would want to murder them I don't know. ;_;
(Although yeah, I can agree the fanbase can be a bit obnoxious at times. But that's the case for any popular series, really. Sonic the Hedgehog, Minecraft, Super Smash Bros.. as soon as it gets popular, the obnoxious vocal minority ends up being the fanbase the rest of the world sees.)
Eh - if you take the pacifist route to the game, I would definitely call it "cute". Especially the True Ending. Not everyone has to dig deep into the game files to find every nook and cranny - and for no game is it more true than Undertale. Given that you have to pretty much go on a murderous rampage just to SEE half of it.. it's truly not worth it.

True. Some friends have told me a few spoilers (though I don't particularly mind) and there's definitely the creepy and dark factor to it which I love with these sorts of games. Either way, there's a unique charm to it that I think I'm going to completely enjoy. Out of curiosity, can you have more than one save file or is it one file only? I just wonder in case I have friends round that want to play it after I'm done or while I'm still playing it and I don't want them screwing up my progress.
Though I will only watch some people do a genocide run... not actually going to do one myself. I just want a nice ending. XD
Well you should be able to move the files in the AppData/Undertale so you can start a fresh game and not mess up your last game.
Flowey out-right calls you out if you watch someone play a No Mercy route. So. Have fun. Sicko.
Seriously, is it really that hard to say 'No Mercy' instead of 'Genocide' route?

Everyone I've seen and known has called it Genocide. I didn't know it was otherwise called No Mercy. Either way, they both have the same meaning in terms of this game.
*shrugs* If Flowey calls me out on it, then alright. Yeah, sure, it's bad of me to watch someone play it that way, but I wouldn't be able to bring myself to do a no mercy/genocide run of it. I think I've done my share of tears through plenty of other things.
Anyway, thanks for the tip with the files. I'll be sure to keep it in mind when I have friends round.

My friend bought this game for me, and I keep hearing great things, so I really want to play, but I need to be productive first. I'm only letting myself take tiny forum breaks until I finish what I need to do today. Hopefully I'll get to play soon. </3

Good luck to you! I still need to buy it myself. XD But I have college work to do, so maybe later. Have to get it by Tuesday so I have the whole day to play. XDD
I don't know the specific words, but Flowey literally states that there are people watching you play near the end of the game.
He says something like "at least we're not as bad as those people who are too weak to do this, so they just watch OTHERS do it for amusement. Those types of people are SICK"

Finally got to play the game for a bit! I went on a date with a certain cool dude.
It's too bad I suck at PC controls and bullet hells but I've made some progress.

Are the PC controls the typical WASD? or are they different?

Different, with the arrow keys for movement and ZXC for some menu stuff.
You can also use enter, shift and ctrl to substitute for ZXC, if that matters
