I don't want to make this post a wall of text, just read the post, it's on the same page
Apparently comparing the fandoms is the same as comparing the games themselves, okay

Oh boy, another post with the loaded implication that the insufferability of the fanbase of a purely singleplayer experience somehow lowers the value of the game itself. Man, I haven't seen enough of those.
That implication's half right. I don't think the game is bad. I've never assumed that, and I never will. I played the demo two years ago, and I've loved it. I was the type of a person that supported its development and told people about the Kickstarter campaign. However, no matter how you look at things, if a fandom is cancerous, it's pretty likely to be the thing someone sees before actually playing the game. That's what happened to me, and now I'm hesitant to buy the full release, because I'm worried that it'll just be a hive of bad memes.

Protip mate, your kind of post is just as common and tired as the kind that makes the fanbase look like shit through borderline deitising the game. Just learn to evaluate things through your own personal experience with them and avoid awful discussion that will just warp you into cynicism. It ain't that hard yo.
Actually, I've yet to see a post that deities the game. Even if I did, that probably wouldn't be what worries me. I hope to get through my worries and buy the game, though. Lastly, maybe I'm not following the right track, but I'm already considering myself as a bit of a cynic, so it's a bit too late to warp into that.

When there's a meme in a game then you would assume the fanbase is cancer like what you said.

That's you, basically.

What? No, it's the other way around.

...the memes are pretty bad

Did any of you get a chance to meet Dr. Gaster without hacked?
I did almost 3 times of all run (Neutral, Pacifist, and Genocide) and got no chance (I meet one of the follower though)

This is the dumbest, most childish attitude I keep seeing as prevalent in the gaming community. It's the kind of attitude that puts forward games as a social accessory first before an actual gaming experience. It's where stupid shite like console wars and rampant fanboyism comes from.

Enjoying a game does not mandate you to participate in the fandom. Going out of your way and exposing yourself to said awful fandom is something you do by your own accord. A lot of the time I notice these kind of "I absolutely hate this GAME because of its FANS" people who decide to go into the game anyway more often than not give in to the fandom as well, which to me makes it seem like all the initial cynicism comes from massive insecurity in the first place.

Stop letting random people on the internet who hold absolutely no value to your life dictate whether you should enjoy games that have absolutely nothing to do with them. For Christ sakes, it's an offline singleplayer game. All the memes those people make, all the shitty shipping fanfic, all the people that make said content, they exist in a completely separate vacuum.

I clearly felt way too much.

Snowmom, god damn it. It's heartwrenching to see her. Everything you see ends up tearing your feels apart even harder, every single turn. Even everything you hear. Every. single. thing.

Finally found some spare time to finish the game and I.... IT WAS SO GOOD
9 hours well spent

if by "meet" you mean going in the grey door that leads into the room he's in then as far as I know it's impossible to access without changing fun value

Howdy! Glad to see so many people are enjoying the game! Just a quick question for all of you, though. Only go into the spolierbox if you've COMPLETELY beaten the game, or if you never plan on completing it(but you should). What do you think about someone creating a mod where you can save Asriel at the end of a True Pacifist Run, and experience Chara's journey at the end of a Genocide-tainted Pacifist Run? Food for thought. :P

It'd be the equivalent of putting a post-it note with a scribbled drawing in that gap on the title screen.
A facade obscuring the truth.

TELL YOUR FRIENDS IT'S PART OF THE GAME! BLOW THEIR MINDS!

I went through pacifist and loved the 10 hours that it took.

Genocide hurts too much to go through D:

Goodness, I got Undertale as a gift through Steam, and I am so glad I did. I heard a lot of good things about it initially, but it surprisingly only showed up on my radar last month. Fanart through tumblr and knowing the right people got me involved. I love the game - finally got through it. It's definitely a game best played with no prior knowledge I would say. The diversity of it is amazing.
Jinxy
tfw you neutral when you wanted to pacfist

I didn't kill but I somehow missed Undyne's phone number

Question, simple yes/no, do I fight omega-flowey in both pacifist and neutral because that thing actually kinda unnerves me a lot


nevermind someone helped me with this. you can go back and do the friend events any time in the game paving the way for true pacifist.


I don't think I can stomach doing Genocide though, after Pacifist. I'm too much of a weenie to kill everyone
daya
I played this owo, It was amaaaazZING but I can't get pass Undyne, ughh. Also too many references. WP, Toby Fox.

Finally finished the game. :D
well worth the 10 or so hours of gameplay
TheOtaku394
The story and plot is totally something else, the soundtrack is fantastic, the characters are so endearing (not looking at you, Flowey!) and the emotions and different endings are really intriguing. Ten bucks seems a cheap deal for such a great gameplay experience! :D
Jinxy
Genocide spoilers: I fucking love Flowey's dialogue from the home up to Sans. and
Sans is crazy difficult jfc, but this is the most fun battle I've done in ages. His genre savviness from just STARTING the battle is awesome.
Haven't beaten him, furthest I've gone is his horizontal blue fall


EDIT: And there we have it. Now I don't have to avoid spoilers anymore. Hooray.
As shitty it will (and should unless you're a god damn psychopath) feel at the start, I highly recommending trying Genocide at least once. At least until the final boss. It blew my mind, and that's after I did the other routes.

I went all the way to see the ending, too. You should if you want to experience everything, but otherwise, not proceeding past the boss is fine, too. Really.
