Undertale megathread v5 - An award-winning RPG where nobody has to get SPOILERS. YES, that STILL inc - Games

[QUOTE=WhichStrider;49751523]With the Muffet topic, she has some great music and design, but I just didn't have enough to be interested in her. There's little development or info to follow through and interact with her, she just felt like some boss to pass by. There's nothing wrong with that, and she's a cool character! I'm just surprised she got such a following with how little importance she held. That's not to say story significance determines if a character can be liked.[/QUOTE] If I can try to elaborate why [I]I[/I] like Muffet, I was caught off guard by how much I enjoyed what little interaction you get. I liked her motivation for [sp]fighting you[/sp], I enjoyed her dialogue, and her visual design. I [I]love[/I] Spider Dance, and [sp]her's was my favorite fight in the entire game[/sp] (I haven't and will not be doing a genocide run). After completing the game, I found out you can [sp]eat one of the Spider Bakesale items during her fight to end it early, which made me appreciate her fight/motives even more.[/sp] Basically, I enjoyed everything about the character a great deal, and before meeting her I had no idea she even existed, so it was a really pleasant surprise that stuck with me after the game. To contrast, Papyrus may have been my favorite character had I not seen so much of him prior to playing the game. When I met him I already had this idea that he was supposed to be the funny character, and even though he was and all of his dialogue was great, it wasn't as good as it could have been for me because I had been unfortunate enough to have some of it spoiled.

[QUOTE=WhichStrider;49751523]Late to the 'dislike characters' discussion but I wanted to say something about Mettaton regarding the morals(obvious bias on my part with my avatar). The fountain scenario didn't really occur to me. It's pretty messed up, but I wouldn't say that makes me like the guy any less. Characters don't exactly have to be morally high to be likable, is there a word for that? When I was going through Hotland and the CORE, I gotta say the scenarios that played out with that lovable robot was probably the funnest part of the game for me. All the frantic mini games and super star glamour acting was fabulous~ With the Muffet topic, she has some great music and design, but I just didn't have enough to be interested in her. There's little development or info to follow through and interact with her, she just felt like some boss to pass by. There's nothing wrong with that, and she's a cool character! I'm just surprised she got such a following with how little importance she held. That's not to say story significance determines if a character can be liked.[/QUOTE] I think a fairly large chunk of it stems from the following two words. [sp]Loli[/sp] [sp]Monstergirl[/sp] It's hardly a majority but you know how the creepier elements of a fanbase tend to be the more vocal and productive ones.

[QUOTE=ElderLolz;49752958]Muffet has like 10 minutes of screentime and doesn't do anything else except for blocking for path. I'll never understand what people find oh so amazing about her. Design and music aside.[/QUOTE] She's just a random miniboss like mad dummy to keep the gameplay interesting, we were never supposed to get anything more

[QUOTE=Nemisis116;49752981]She's just a random miniboss like mad dummy to keep the gameplay interesting, we were never supposed to get anything more[/QUOTE] I've suggested this before, but they could've at least given her a Shopkeeper screen, like the other shops do... :frown:

speaking of muffet [t]https://36.media.tumblr.com/5bad80c2074cc2ccd40a286ae604ec62/tumblr_o16z4ghZ871tqgg1po1_1280.jpg[/t] [url=http://epicspyrofan.tumblr.com/post/137610897541]some things were never meant to be combined[/url]

Okay this one got me good. [IMG]http://i0.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/001/076/656/378.png[/IMG]

[QUOTE=ILLUMM;49752366][sp]I never thought Napstablook of all characters would be Asriel. That would mean Mettaton is Chara.[/sp][/QUOTE] I fucking called it.

But then who will be [sp]Mettaton[/sp]? My money's on [sp]Undyne.[/sp]

Alphys should be [sp] Mettaton [/sp] for the full shift effect.

[QUOTE=SoftHearted;49754485]Alphys should be [sp] Mettaton [/sp] for the full shift effect.[/QUOTE] Alphys is already [sp]Napstablook[/sp] so [sp]Mettaton[/sp] is most likely [sp]Undyne[/sp].

It makes a lotta sense now I think about it more. Maybe when [sp]Undyne tried to fight Doctor Asgore, he was all like "do you want to know how to get stronger?", and began to "augment" her with robotics. Or something like that.[/sp]

Well, can YOU give me a ride home?

Why is everyone spoiling the names? I thought the general rule was to not spoil anything past the beginning of true pacifist or genocide, what's with the overdoing of hiding these known names?

[QUOTE=austin0331;49754678]Why is everyone spoiling the names? I thought the general rule was to not spoil anything past the beginning of true pacifist or genocide, what's with the overdoing of hiding these known names?[/QUOTE] It's an AU comic series that people don't want to spoil.

[QUOTE=austin0331;49754678]Why is everyone spoiling the names? I thought the general rule was to not spoil anything past the beginning of true pacifist or genocide, what's with the overdoing of hiding these known names?[/QUOTE] If I recall correctly, it's because the game's still fairly new and Postal stated that it's best to avoid spoilers at this time for the people who haven't played it yet.

genocide help: [sp]Can't find those last 3 monsters to kill in snowdin. I've basically killed every miniboss i've found and it still says "3 left" but the only thing left to kill is papyrus.[/sp]

:ninja:'d

[sp]God dammit some people convinced me to do a Geno run, and like the sleepless idiot I am I actually started it. I canceled it when I got to Papyrus. I feel like such an asshole.[/sp]

Strength? Who needs strength, with friends like these?

[QUOTE=Smashing Good;49755691]keep going it's fun[/QUOTE] No.

[QUOTE=Gunzers6;49755820]No.[/QUOTE] I thought the same. Then curiosity got the better of me. You're missing out on gameplay here. Don't you want to fight the hardest boss in the game?
