I didn't even say anything hateful???

I said she looked like a troll.

Can you guys, like, chill out? Please?

I know I said I didn't like it but that doesn't mean whenever I talk about it, I'm saying something negative.

It's fairly obvious that you thoroughly dislike the game.

It's grating.

I will admit to being turned off on the game because it's talked about so much.

But I'm not constantly complaining about it.

the amount of negative things you say about the game outweigh the positives

dead devotion

There hasn't been a whole lot of positives for me, okay?

I mean, I'm playing this so I can at least try to understand why it's so well-received.

I know I don't like it and I'm trying to see if playing it will change that.

Sorry if I've said too much negative stuff but saying everything I have said about the game is negative is complete bullshit.

The music is fantastic if a touch bit repetitive, the characters are (so far) rather unique, and the battle system (even though I find it a little lame) is something I haven't seen used in a game like this. There is positives, I just don't voice them because I don't need everyone going "oh see it is good, told you so".

It doesn't look like you're trying to see why people like it so much as trying to find things to complain about.

You're fueling your own negativity by seemingly trying to discredit everyone who likes it.

It isn't that you don't like it. It's that the criticism that you've voiced so far seems to mostly be for the sake of finding things to complain about like fish person = clearly Homestuck repackaged.

The fish = homestuck was a joke. That wasn't even a complaint.

it is hard to tell because undyne = vriska ripoff is something some people actually believe

I think everyone needs to chill out here.

Chris you don't have to like the game if you just don't like it.

But at same time your comment did come off as negative and in the middle of a thread full of fans of the game eeeeh....that doesn't end well.

But also.

Guys its just a game. Let's try to have no bones about it.

I am going to be frank.

Regardless of your intentions, you have a very big problem with tone.

This is not the first time this has happened i.e. you say something that riles everyone up and then say it's a joke.

Either it is a joke with a really clumsy tone or you're backpedaling when it's obvious that it pissed people off.

I don't know which it is, but it's a problem either way.

hey Chris, personally I don't care much either way but I have a suggestion if you're really trying to see why the game is popular:

wait until you've finished it, assuming this is a type of game that can be finished, to voice your opinion. Then you can lay out what you liked and didn't like about the game in a single post and it won't seem like you're being unbiased by posting multiple negative posts without anything that looks like a positive.

i think going into things with the mentality

"why does everyone like this, why is it so supposedly awesome"

is just generally gonna make it wind up as a disappointment when youre looking for specific reasons people like it instead of like

taking the whole thing as an experience, because you think itd be something you like personally

i mean hell i could do a quick writeup of why people like undertale if you want

It's pretty unfortunate. Your experience with a work is always highly dependent on your mindset and expectations going in. It's like a good joke, it works if the punchline surprises you, but it won't surprise you if you're expecting to be surprised. A game like this can only work if you're open to it and you want to experience it, but if you're going in like "okay, where is the face-melting awesomeness, if I'm still in possession of an unscathed face in ten minutes I will be so disappointed", you'll see nothing but silly jokes with some seemingly unfitting dark elements thrown in.
