Sans is popular the way that Dora the Explorer is popular. No one actually plays the game, but they know of him because of memes and jokes because of the character.
This is really the only thing that ever made Undertale relevant. The retarded community surrounded it and Toby Fox.
Member when Yea Forums was all over Undertale? I member.
Aaron Rivera
>no one actually plays the game Very big doubt
Benjamin Williams
They do not.
I think the gaming community greatly undervalues how few people who watch game streams and youtube videos actually play video games. I think when the metrics for FNAF were released the average player plays for seven minutes. Yet it's a big deal because of the retarded Game Theory videos and reaction streams.
Undertale is really no different.
Jeremiah Ramirez
I don't know what's more baffling: the assertion that nobody played Undertale or the assertion that nobody watched Dora the Explorer.
I actually know a retard that was all over Undertale but didn't bother to play the 6 hour long game to this day, I would doubt OP too if I didn't have this piece of anecdotal evidence. Also zoomers don't play video games they watch people play video games.
Jayden Cooper
It really does feel like these people have latched onto Toby Fox in order to make him successful.
Has anyone noticed that Little Town Hero hasn't gotten any attention at all despite having Fox as a composer? The music was one of the most hyped things about Undertale.
I think it's more comparable to the Twilight thing honestly. Twilight was super huge among its audience before it became mainstream with the movies and became a joke.
>>Has anyone noticed that Little Town Hero hasn't gotten any attention at all despite having Fox as a composer? That's because it managed to look worse than Pokemon
Ryan Thomas
all anyone fucking cares about is memes and their smartphone anymore. everything is so fucking boring now.
Adrian Anderson
I played Undertale
Logan Long
Never played undertale, still don't intend to All I know about it is that the game has some faggy mechanic of "you better be a good boy who doesn't hurt anybody or else you gonna have a bad time"
>Sans is popular the way that Dora the Explorer is popular. That's a terrible analogy. Dora the Explorer is consumed MASSIVELY by it's target audience, that audience being 3 year olds.
Jason Hernandez
And single moms who are bilingual
Isaiah Watson
What a sensitive faggot lmao
Aiden Brown
>All I know about it is that the game has some faggy mechanic of "you better be a good boy who doesn't hurt anybody or else you gonna have a bad time" Not really, I haven't played it either but I've watched all the ending on Youtube to see what the hubub is all about and frankly the Bad Ending seems like the most fun because that's the one that actually gets to fight a fun boss fight.
Andrew Hall
That’s because it’s tied to gayfreak anyone with a single brain cell know not to bother with gayfreaks stuff and no one cares about anything they do that isn’t pokeymans
Jayden Cruz
you can hurt people but if you intentionally hunt down every encounter in the map you get blocked by a superboss in the end
Logan Morgan
>Toby dabbing on hipsters and contrarians since 2015 Name a more based dev
Julian Watson
You say this but Toby is still rolling in dosh from a game that "nobody played".
Wyatt Perez
cry more
Lincoln Rodriguez
Friendly reminder that you can play the only fun and challenging part of Undertale, the Sans fight, in your browser without needing to buy the game or play it at all
idk but the Dora parody in that episode of Aqua Teen was fucking hot and theres like no porn of her
Nathaniel Cooper
>Criticizes bandwagoning as the source of a popular game's popularity. >By being a bandwagoning EPIC SHITPOSTING fag who jumps on Yea Forums's flavor of the month shitposting sauce.
How much of a fucking sheep can you be?
Juan Gomez
I love how Undertale fans think this is BTFO the haters when it just exposed Undertale fans for being overtly emotional retards.
Jordan Adams
People masturbate to Dora. BUT People ALSO masturbate to Sans. And consider this. We.never see Dora and Sans in the same place, at the same time.
That can only man one thing loyal theorists. DORA. IS. SANS. But hey, thats just like, my theory man.
Joshua Brooks
based af
Matthew Gutierrez
butthurt
Charles Torres
>Born with talent The favorite cope for absolute PLEB who won't ever dare to put effort into anything they do because A BLOO BLOO IT'S TOO HARD AND ONLY SUCCESS COUNTS!!!!!!
>huur a hurrr undertale undertale undertale. It's so rent free in your mind that you cannot even conceive that this post applies to every single contrarian fad of the week on this board of fucking brainless hypocrites who act like they are so fucking intelligent with a big boy brain even though they consume shitty clickbait twitter screencap shit and reactionary outrage content without having any form of self-reflection or opinion of their own. I am like this man, I hate filth like you. It's really ironic that it's always the biggest fucking drone NPC gullible sheeps who run their mouth the most about being the few awakened individuals.
Justin James
This is why you should play a game before judging it, or you'll look retarded like this guy.
Austin Gray
>you better be a good boy who doesn't hurt anybody or else you gonna have a bad time user you literally have to grind the whole game to get the bad ending
Dora the Explorer was incredibly popular you dumb zoomer lol
Colton Ward
You've never created anything because you have no talent, the ultimate cope is pretending >I-if I just try harder I will make a great piece of art! Nah, you won't
Isaiah Taylor
>2 million+ copies sold only on pc >God knows how many more on consoles >Pirated like every other popular game
Yeah, nobody played it
Jackson Clark
Buying and playing are two hugely different things. I played lots of games I didn't buy and bought lots I didn't play.
Jeremiah Brown
And with the new movie, any man who considers himself heterosexual.
Blake Watson
Wait, only two million?
Cuphead sold more than that. I think Hollow Knight and Shovel Knight did as well.
Actually I know a ton of indie games more popular than that.
Justin Cruz
steam spy shows between 2 and 5 million.
>only two million yeah, any indie game sells that amount.
Leo Cook
Yeah and this post is still relevant in this tgread and it's relevant when looking at every single fucking shitposting fad on this board. Fucking idiots who come to Yea Forums because it's LE EPIC SHITPOSTING BOARD LMAO. Every Steveposter, every rosterfag, every 25 cent contrarian, every single fucking idiot who think they are so fucking clever because they're having fun posting as much as they can in a day, taking some imaginary highground of smugness and pride in putting as little effort as they can in their opinions and posts, thinking they are fucking smug because they laugh at faggots like me who give the benefit of the doubt and want actual discussion and not just vomiting memes like a Facebook pleb, reacting to every clickbait thread made by fucktards like OP who just take something popular and attack people using catchy titles and shitty buzzwords.
Do you know what Yea Forums reminds me the most of? Facebook and its hobby groups. It's the exact same shit minus the user's profiles. You scroll down and down to see an endless seaof forced unfunny memes and clickbait in which people argue about the stupidest fucking shit, except on Yea Forums, people have 0 self awareness and do not realise just how fucking similar they are to all the pleb reddit fucktards they will NEVER shut the fuck up about how NPC they are and how they hate them. Criticizing "normies" for bandwagoning every trend when they can't post a thread on Yea Forums if ot's not Yea Forums approved. Go ahead and tldr I don't give a fuck anymore. I'm well aware of the irony of me getting angry while criticizing fucktards who jump on every clickbait. At least I have enough self honesty to know I'm a retard.
Benjamin Richardson
Undertale has always been a good game. Yea Forums only turned on it because "reddit tumblr zoomers"
Luis Jones
sans is just an edgy faggot and a great identifier for brainless filth like rick and morty or anyone who visits twitch and / or worships a certain e-celeb be happy that he's been added, so you can filter out the filth
Jonathan Evans
>sans is just an edgy faggot Literally what the fuck is edgy about his character?
Christian Peterson
OP is 100% right to be fair.. However... It's starting to get to a point where threads shitting on undertale is almost as annoying as the constant spewage of sans memes and undertale related circlejerking. Yea Forums had tons of Undertale threads simply because the people who liked it were extremely vocal, it soon turned into a huge shitposting circlejerk that was never funny to begin with
Thomas Wilson
You can just say you didn't play the game, user
Cameron Campbell
He seems like a cheery chap and his design is good. I haven't even played Undertale, nor do I care, so take my word for what it's worth.
Cooper Jenkins
Nigger, if you do what you do becauseall you want is success, you're fucking trash and let's be perfectly clear here so you don't attack arguments I've never made. Wanting success when you love creating content is perfectly normal and honorable, it shows that you have enough appreciation in your craft and self-confidence to believe it can be appreciated by many people, but there is a difference between doing something because you love it and, then, share it with the world as a form if expression and being some sheepish pleb with talent in something who gets buttmad the entire world isn't sucking his dick like Kanye West when he releases a creation and tries to cope by saying people more popular and successful than him are just cruising on "natural talent/genes". That is the true mark of a fucking loser right there. One who is so arrogant and impatient he cannot tolerate setbacks and people either shitting on his creations or being indifferent to them. Tell me this: Why do you do something if you don't like it? Just because you can? Just because you happen to have enough proficience in it? Where is your heart? Where is your passion?
I do create shit and I was commissioned many times for my work by a niche group of people and I have talent in many crafts that, generally, people are impressed by, but I am not popular, all of my work is not known and I never advertize any of my shit. Many love my work as much as many like to shit on my efforts. Does it matter if I love what I do and if I find satisfaction from seeing the smile on someone's face when they receive my work? As I said, either do something or don't, but stop using insulting platitudes like these defeatist excuses.
Jonathan Rodriguez
>cheery chap I'm gonna steal this thanks. Also yeah he's a pretty cheery chap
I love this argument. If something is popular on Yea Forums and gets many threads of appreciation for a period of time, then it's just a vocal minority, but when people start being epic contrarians about that said thing everyone loved for a time, suddenly it's the majority of not-sheeps who, just now, are coming out of the woodworks.
Oh and it obviously has nothing to do with the fact that a Sans costume JUST got released in Ultimate, THE biggest shitposting fad of 2019 on Yea Forums every fucking retard bandwagons on.
Oliver Collins
According to SteamSpy, the average playtime is 2 hours and 38 minutes, and the median is 4 hours 35 minutes. It's safe to say most people didn't actually complete the game.
Elijah Robinson
Toby fox is Jewish. Marketing +30 because memed by fellow tribesmen and talmudic upbringing.
I hope you enjoyed the break you took from the internet in 2015.
Jack Ramirez
etika died before seeing sans in smash
Luis Lewis
Ouch. Really? That explains a lot.
Cameron Taylor
I do too. We're a bunch of fucking hypocrites.
Joseph Perry
Why are Undertale fans so autistic?
Jose Miller
This is the case with every game though. Find any game with a "beat the first mission" achievement and it has like a 50% completion rate.
Aiden Ortiz
If the ONLY thing they said about Little Town Hero in the last direct was that Toby was doing the music, and they didn't show that awful gameplay footage, I think it would actually be getting more attention than it did
Jordan Martinez
That's pretty much all they did though.
I really think they thought it would blow up because of his involvement.
Joshua Adams
Sans got popular after MatPat shilled the fuck out for that game. The sans is ness theory was the tipping point for the memes.
Kayden Long
If people don't play the game it's their loss and I don't give a shit. It's a great game and Sans is an integral part of why.
pretty much, tumblr users hyped up this game because of quirky retro art, corny jokes, and furry pandering.
Elijah Cooper
This. Honestly fuck MatPat.
Samuel Jenkins
Your comparison is apt, but not really for the reason you suggest. It's because underage are both's primary audience. And there's a hell of a lot more tasteless kids out there than anybody here hopes.
Dylan Clark
>t-the mean user won't let me be a retard in peace! this is my safe space! leave any time
Eli Cooper
Sans was never a good character. During the Genocide route he does fuck all to stop you, he just stands by and lets everyone get murdered for no apparent reason then decides to fight you AFTER everyone is already dead. When you kill Toriel he gets butthurt but doesn’t do shit. When you murder his brother he gets butthurt but doesn’t do shit. Why? Because Undertale is a video game that needs a final boss. That’s basically it
Joseph Lee
>toby fox is jewish gonna need some proofs with that sir
Grayson Davis
The whole time he doesn't want the opportunity of you fighting him, because he knows that's what you want.
Luis Anderson
Bold of you to imply more than half of the people who bought the game never played it. An actual braindead point.
Nathan Perry
I’m literally playing Undertale right now
Mason Gomez
This is like responding to everyone who mocks the shit out of you with "WHOA CALM DOWN!" Weak defense bro.
Xavier Myers
>I'm a retard
Stopped reading there.
David Jones
I don't. I remember people mocking it as furry trash, mocking the way that fat fetish furfag got his OC into the game, and I remember the satirical threads about how it's GOTY though.
Joshua Hill
Be honest Yea Forums. Did you think he was evil because of all the edgy fanart?
But you become more powerful the more you kill. He could have easily just noticed in the beginning that you are murdering everyone then kill you early on while you’re weaker. By waiting until the end he deliberately makes you more and more powerful and makes it more and more difficult for him to actually kill you
It’s retarded no matter how you look at it
Angel Price
I don't, it was mostly circlejerking generals on Yea Forums by the same undertalefags.
It's a good, quaint little game. But let's be real. People go overboard with how amazing they claim it to be. It's more picturebook than game.
Logan Johnson
Because it's an extremely popular game that they found first. Because its popularity has resulted in it getting an awful fanbase. Because even though it's far from perfect, it shows that a guy's passion project can absolutely change the biggest entertainment industry in the world Because people wish they had the drive and ambition of Toby Fox
Evan Sanders
What did Undertale change exactly?
Nolan Jackson
You actually do want to be a bad boy because that route has two of the three actually engaging fights in the game
Brandon Fisher
Well I wouldn't say it changed much but he definitely contributed one of the greatest metafiction pieces the media has seen. He has also proven that small one person studios can be extremely successful with the passion and ambition put into it.
Jonathan Cooper
but I don't want to fuck Sans
Christopher Scott
Didn't Notch kind of already prove that?
Jordan Kelly
I was unaware that Dora the Explorer had memes. I thought the children's show that spouted the most memes was Blue's Clues, for the very wrong reasons.
Aaron Peterson
Multiple AAA studios had management basically go apeshit when their multimillion dollar projects failed to get the base, sales, or acclaim that a single auctor in his basement was able to do on his own. A lot of devs actually quit because they had a "come-to-Jesus moment" where they realized their job was pointless in comparison.
I think the big difference is Minecraft could be copied. It was just a neat tool for virtual legos. Just chuck crafting and survival crap in your game, done. Undertale can't.
Don't you remember? Sans always has 1 HP so it doesn't matter how strong Frisk gets. That's also why he puts all emphasis on speed and dodging. If you can't hit him then you can't kill him. It also renders all your weapons useless and your equips become useless too since his attacks don't have any recovery time.
Jack James
That's stupid, you get more HP and healing items as the game goes on.
John Sanchez
sticking a skeleton in a hoodie is not good design.
Lucas Gomez
So? He can still easily kill you in the beginning because you have less HP and healing items
Brayden Gonzalez
At least the creator doesn't like the Lets Play culture and even made a reference to people being too lazy to play the game themselves and instead watch it on youtube in the game
Ayden Miller
i watched a 7 yr old play that game, if you liked it you are a fuckn faggot with a baby brain
