      I think it's time to experience this after that loony "fan" base keeping me at a distance. I shall treat it as a new entity, untrammelled by young voices not so young now I'd think. Whatever, I'm 46 and kids can easily yank my chain online so this was just a pile of rage when it dominated every chatroom. It's clearly not the game though. I may also be a grumpy old dude.

      I feel like a lot of people believe that people won't play -EarthboundBootleg- Undertale because of the fanbase. That's not true. That's just the fanboys that use this excuse and now people believe them. Which is sad. You can't even be constructive about the game without 20 people being pissed off at you.

    • @kyidk
      @kyidk 5 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      I would disagree. Just because someone makes a review criticizing something you like doesn't automatically make it that they are hungry for views. The game is outdated, about 3 years old, yet people make reviews on it because of people like you believing it's great, it has flaws, the battle mechanics are basic and bland, and the music is good until I hear it too much to the point of cringe. I do think the game was nice, but because of the fandom, it becomes hard to enjoy without picturing stupid images or cringe stuff. As well as it becomes hard to invest in because of the fandom, and how judged you can be for simply playing it because of the stereotype that goes around with that. And it's sad, but a lot of single player games face this and become over whelmed with a bad fandom that sometimes people view as bad for a very long time. And the fandom makes the game reputation in so to speech, and that's why some people don't enjoy it.

    Every Undertale review video I go on has a comment about the fanbase. Who the hell cares about the fanbase? I would still play even with the "crazy" side of the fandom. Just let it go. Every fandom has this bad side. It's just Undertale had it a bit worse. But so did fnaf, sonic, mlp, batim, su, and other indie games.

    This game is one of the things that made me really want to become a game developer (Though I was already thinking about doing that before this game).
    I never got a chance to play it myself, so I had watched someone play through the game.
    The fact that this game came out 3 years ago feels kinda weird to me.

      I'll copy paste: This game is trash, terrible dialogue that seems like it was written by a 15 year old, HORRENDOUS graphics yet TERRIBLE optimization. You can lag even if you have a semi-decent laptop. Genocide is legit boring and grindy with no purpose, neutral is downgraded pacifist and pacifist gives you like 1 extra room of content and another trashy boss fight where you can't even die. Sans's difficulty is overrated as hell and anyone who has played a tiny segment of the Souls franchise will know what actual difficulty is. Undyne ON GENOCIDE is actually hard, and has decent music. Possibly the only good boss in the game. The rest of it is actually grindy just for the SAKE of being grindy.
      If you do Pacifist, there is no reason to do neutral and genocide is actually just boring. I used Cheat Engine to speed the game up so I could finally encounter a monster.
      Soundtrack is overhyped. I don't get why everyone says that Megalovania is the greatest song in gaming. If you played any video game you would instantly know it isn't. Again, Dark Souls and mainly DS3 which has some of the best music I have ever heard in gaming.

    This was a fantastic review. You did the right thing by looking at the game at face value and ignored the rather blatantly horrid side of the fanbase and gave an honest look at the game itself. If you ask me, that's just the break this game needed. The fanbase can be so toxic that it's almost mandatory to ignore it in order to fully enjoy this masterpiece.
    Thank you, Arlo. I'll be sure to pick this game up when I get the chance.
    EDIT: Sorry guys, bad choice of words.
    I think the better word to use would be "honest" instead of "objective".
    And to clarify, when speaking of the toxicity in the fanbase I was referring to the blatant control obsession a good chunk may have, and not those who do questionable fanart, fanfics, role playing, and other subjects that may be considered odd to some.
    I do not in any way consider the whole of the fanbase to be toxic, but I won't deny there is small shortage of it.
    Love something anyway you want, but don't be rude to others for feeling different. I also understand that those who may choose to be controlling of how others play the game may simple be passionate, but that doesn't mean I personally approve of such actions.

    • @TaliesinMyrddin

      Celestial Mage literally any review about a video game is subjective. There is not a single objective criticism a game can receive, since someone else could like it.

    • @TaliesinMyrddin
      @TaliesinMyrddin 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I would argue the only objective criticisms a game could receive have to do with function, not style.
      For example, you can objectively say "this game crashes at X point or if you play more than Y hours", or "the frame rate is choppy", but you can't objectively say battle is bland or music is bad, for example.

    • @duwang6556
      @duwang6556 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      TaliesinMyrddin That's true, but those kind of functional issues could very well be attributed to the hardware as much as the software, so I would argue that those can't be deemed criticisms of the game itself. However, that is ultimately just my opinion.

    • @TaliesinMyrddin
      @TaliesinMyrddin 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Fair enough. They are the kind of thing I prefer in a game review to opinion though; I don't care as much if the reviewer enjoyed the gameplay or story, I want to know what the controls are like and if there are any bugs/functional issues that might impact my enjoyment/prioritising the game.
      As you said, though, that's just my opinion of what a review is. I suppose I'm looking more for a review of the experience of playing, as opposed to what experiencing the game is like.

    1) Cut a butternut squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds and goop from the little round bit in the center.
    2) Lay the squash cut-face-up in a baking pan. The places the seeds used to be are now little bowls. Fill each bowl with two tablespoons of butter and a quarter cup of brown sugar.
    3) Bake at 375F for an hour or until the flesh is thoroughly soft all the way through. Serve. (Note that the peel is inedible.)

      What. It's not comparing apples to oranges. The fan base is what makes a game live on. And undertale's fan base happens to be really awful, thus giving a dislike for the fan base. The reputation of the game has gone down due to the fanbase, and that isn't making my argument lost.

      No dude, I don't hate it for it's fanbase: This game is trash, terrible dialogue that seems like it was written by a 15 year old, HORRENDOUS graphics yet TERRIBLE optimization. You can lag even if you have a semi-decent laptop. Genocide is legit boring and grindy with no purpose, neutral is downgraded pacifist and pacifist gives you like 1 extra room of content and another trashy boss fight where you can't even die. Sans's difficulty is overrated as hell and anyone who has played a tiny segment of the Souls franchise will know what actual difficulty is. Undyne ON GENOCIDE is actually hard, and has decent music. Possibly the only good boss in the game. The rest of it is actually grindy just for the SAKE of being grindy.
      If you do Pacifist, there is no reason to do neutral and genocide is actually just boring. I used Cheat Engine to speed the game up so I could finally encounter a monster.
      Soundtrack is overhyped. I don't get why everyone says that Megalovania is the greatest song in gaming. If you played any video game you would instantly know it isn't. Again, Dark Souls and mainly DS3 which has some of the best music I have ever heard in gaming.

    I recently bought a Real Grade scale gundam, and boy, was it easier to put together than I thought it would be. It comes at the smallest official scale that bandaid makes their fully poseable kits, but it has incredible parts separation, and none of the important details are left to stickers. The way the inner frame is made, some parts like the knee pad or elbow joint, the armor moves apart and separates naturally like a machine activating all the hydraulics and mechanics necessary to move and lift heavy objects. I love it, and I plan to re-paint certain armor plates to make my own custom version. If this sounds like something that could be fun for you, but you dont wanna invest in a model kit only to find out you dont REALLY like it. I'd recommend any High Grade kit in the HGIBO line (HG Iron Blooded Orphans). Specifically any of the variations of the Graze unit. They are one of the cheaper kits in the entire gundam line, and very simple to snap together. Oh, all gundam kits are snap-fit, by the way, no glue required. So yeah, try something new. I only started myself this February, and I absolutely love it as a hobby.

    This is a Guide to enjoy undertale to the largest extent AND be a normal fan
    1.Go in blind this game is so packed full of jokes and surprising moments even knowing the smallest amount of the game can ruin the experience
    2.Choose the path you feel like going on that's where a lot of the fun comes from and having someone who forces you to go down one path will give the feeling that the choices you made weren't genuine
    3.Once you've played the game and had your fun don't spoil anything you'll ruin the experience for someone else
    4.Don't continuously shove this game down someone's throat if they say it doesn't interest them you'll only make them want to play it less
    5.call people out when they try to say the game is bad because of the fanbase it truly is one of the worst arguments in the video game industry as a whole even as someone who thinks the fanbase is one of the most annoying group of people on the internet I feel that it's still a crappy argument
    6.When someone does point out actual problems about the game such as how grindy the genocide route is don't go all fanboy and defend the game to death and not give any actual arguments if you disagree state why you disagree in a respectful manner otherwise be accepting of criticism
    7.And the most important rule is always remember Sans=Ness

      I still don't like this game, I just don't find characters that original, the musics are a little bit overrated and I don't like that the game is telling to me: "Hey! You shouldn't kill ennemies in a video game! You're a monster!", wtf? If i want to play an rpg, well, like an rpg.
      Plus genocide route is boring af. But I can understand why poeple like this game, objectivly, he is good! But for me he doesn't make me feel anything to play it
      (Oh and of course there's the terrible fanbase, but that's not an argument for disliking the game in itself).

      Really the conception that people only hate undertale about the fanbase is false not saying those people don't exist but they don't exist to the extent people make it out to be it's quite confusing
      TL;DR
      Undertale gets unjustified hate but people who criticize the game fairly are never mentioned when talking about this.

    • @XLR108
      @XLR108 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Look, the way I see it,
      If you let the fanbase determine wether you like something, then you're never going to enjoy ANYTHING
      at all
      Its very easy to find people who love the gme and just like talking about it, theres more than the toxic part.
      But literally every fandom is toxic.
      Literally no exceptions.
      Which is why it always bugs me when people go "GOD Steven Universe/Undertale/Voltron etc. is trash because of the fans" Or whatever
      Yes there are defs fans who take things too far, but when aren't there fans who take things too far?

    Arlo, if you have no interest in performing the genocide route yourself, I HIGHLY suggest watching someone play through it, or a highlight of it. Theres even more clever stuff in there than neutral/true pacifist combined and it honestly is what left its everlasting impression on me.
    I havent beaten the final boss of genocide, myself, but even with that as my “ending”, it still resonated beautifully with me. It makes me smile every time I see someone struggle through the route - not out of challenge of gameplay, but of emotion.
    Glad to see you liked it, and I’m glad most people in the comments do too. I hope more come to enjoy it as soon as its on switch 💖

    Tell you something else? Okay. I want to make at least one videogame of my own someday. One of my ideas is a superhero game not dissimilar to the recent Spider-Man title for PS4, though probably nowhere near as graphically impressive. The main gimmick is that it will have no progression system - you, the player, figure out what abilities you have through practice and experimentation with the controls, since the character will be a new superhero herself. This means that all the hero's abilities are unlocked from the get-go, (though there will probably be a moves list that fills in as you disover things so that you can refresh yourself later if you need to), and the only thing limiting you is your own willingness to experiment. It also means that for returning players, they don't need to worry about being powered-down if they want to experience the game again. Same for anyone unfortunate enough to lose their save data.
    I have this scene in my head where the game boots up for the first time, the title screen is the hero standing at the edge of a building, and when the player presses start, the hero jumps off and goes into a free-fall, with the player in full control right from the start. From there, whether or not the hero takes flight and glides gently to the street below, or to a nearby rooftop even, or contiues to plummet straight down until the hero faceplants into the concrete (no fall damage thanks to their armor) is completely dependent on whether the player figures out how to start gliding before they hit the ground, justified as the hero herself was also trying to figure out how the glide function works.
    I also say it'll be similar to Spider-Man because I want to make traversing the world fun. Although it might be safer to say it'll be closer to Prototype than Spider-Man, since the hero will have abilities like gliding, aerial boosting, and skating on any surface. I imagine the setting being a kind of future-city with possible floating buildings to climb and flying cars that can be bounced off, with emphasis on cylinders in the environment, to help set it apart from the typical New York setting.
    So...yeah. I hope that was an interesting read at least. Original idea, do not steal! :p

      Yeah, I get that. I'd never try to make a game like this by myself. Ideally I'll someday be hired by an indie studio and be able to pitch the idea there or something like that.
      Also go right ahead, I have plenty more where that came from. :) And if you don't do it right, I can still use it but do it better. :p

      If you have only just reached City Of Tears then you're far from the end of the game. In that city, however, you can find Relic Seeker Lenm, an NPC who will buy relics (colectibles scattered around the map) in exchange for geo. Whenever you want to buy something and you have a couple of relics in your inventory you can just sell a relic or two.

    • @ridori7376
      @ridori7376 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Their only purpouse is to be sold for Geo. Lenm also gives you a bit of lore for each one but that's basically it.
      Also yeah, this game's massive. Definately should be worth more than just $15. My first playthrough took me no joke 30 hours. And I didn't even complete the game 100%.
