Undertale, but at this point you'd have to have lived in a cave for the last decade to not know most of the spoilers by now.
Well, apparently I have!
The only thing I've heard about Undertale so far is that it is supposed to be good.
That's all Ive heard too. I tried playing it but the combat was weird. Kinda boring to me so I never advanced further.
Same. Fehlt like a very early game experiment.
It gets good by the end but yeah if you don't mesh with it early on it can be hard to get into and want to finish it.
Yeah that happened to me. Never finished it and wonder why it's so loved.
Yeah I almost had that happen with me but I think I ended up watching someone play it. Still kind of regret it but at the same time probably wouldn't have finished it on my own otherwise and I atleast have Deltarune to look forward to now.
Yeah I didn't really get it. I did play Everhood though and that was much better.
It's good in a way that isn't really expected - the only thing I can say without spoiling is it did something really different with things that had been there a long time.
Undertale is such a bolt of lightning. It both depends on its player having experience with traditional JRPG and having no fucking clue what it is. But when the conditions line up, as it did for many people at release, it was such a master fully crafted experience. But even the slightest amount of "it's good because..." really siphons part of the experience away.

Tbh, I played it for a few hours, didn't like it and don't understand all the fuss about it. Does it get good later?
I was at a point, where I was going through a cave with a castle in the background (it was a few years ago), it was probably some kind of riddle, but I couldn't be bothered.
Is it worth going forward or did I see enough to just say "it's not my kind of game"?
I'm gonna be the heretic here, it's actually really terrible. If you don't like Homestuck and that brand of humor, you won't like Undertale.
Spoiler: There are high jinks, low jinks, dangers, puzzles, capers, japers, being captured, and other sorts of fun activities in this game.
I have heard the name but don't know what it's about, I'll look into it. Thanks !
No, don't!
Or at least don't do anymore than choose your preferred platform and then buy it. Its available on Windows, Linux, Mac, PS, Xbox and Switch but not on Android or iOS.
Its a couple of bucks on steam at the moment, included in PSN if you do that, or full price everywhere else.
hop just got it. Thanks for the recommendation. Let's see what this is all about 😁
Guess I live in a cave then. I have even had the game on steam for ages now. The graphics are just too much of a turn off for me to ever play it.
