No soy un hombre sensible, pero Toby supo como hacerme llorar, una historia dolorosa, npc carismaticos que se sienten tan reales de los complejos que son y siendo algo raro, llamandolos tus amigos.
Apesar de todo, sigues siendo tu.

Great game. Played years ago but remember it impacting me a lot when I was like 14.

I hate this game with all my heart and soul. All of the games Toby Fox was inspired by for this game (Moon, OFF, Earthbound, Live a Live, Yume Nikki, etc) are great, but this game sucks cock and playing it is not fun and it appeals to people who had a Hetalia phase


Undertale definitely grew on me over the years. I think this is the quintessential example of videogames as an artform, simply because Undertale could not work the way it does if it was any other medium. The way the game utilices its mechanics to communicate ideas of morality, agency, player psychology and so much more, is truly fascninating, all while creating a lovely world filled with fun characters and exciting encounters.

I used to say "I understand why the genocide route is boring, but that's still a bad thing". Not anymore. Games are an art form, not just mindless entertainment, and the genocide route doesn't want you to have fun, so that's not what it'll offer to you, and that's great. I don't enjoy playing it, and that's great. Undertale teaches me a lot about my own preconceptions of videogames, and I think that is its greatest achievement.

What I do not find all too great about Undertale, even within the confines of its own narrative, is the overworld. The puzzles are... cute, I guess, but way too simple to be done more than once. Having to do all of Papyrus' traps and all of Mettaton's shows twice really grinds the pace to a hault, and make the game a bit of a chore to revisit, despite the fact that you're encouraged to do it. Deltarune greatly upgraded its overworld minigames and puzzles, meaning this was probably just toby fox struggling with his first game, but regardless, what an amazing start.

This game is a love letter to rpgs fans but the genocide route is annoying

Cuando era pequeña este juego fue mi obsesion por como dos años enteros

daradandan da da da da da da daradandan da da da da da da

I played it for about the first half of the game, got disinterested, its cool and all but honestly I prefered Deltarune

the game that made me feel the most like mother 3 since mother 3

one of my favorite stories in gaming, precisely because of how it used its game mechanics to tell it. The game mechanics themselves are contextualized in the story so well that they make you seriously stop and think on your decisions. I spoiled myself on the game after getting the neutral ending and the game even called me out for it, causing a little existential crisis for a month. Also probably the greatest soundtrack in gaming history.

An interactive experience more than a game in his classical meaning. I strongly suggest to try this game at least once in each of his three routes. The characters are well built and original, the OST's are amazing and the game often breaks the fourth wall in unexpected ways. If you are thinking about trying this or not, do it. It won't take long and you will experience one of the most original ideas in gaming history.


É perfeito.
PERFEITO.
Cada simples detalhe, perfeito.

O melhor indie que ja vi na vida.
