Somewhat annoying fandom aside, Undertale is indeed a brilliant game, well-crafted masterpiece with lots of labor and love put into it. Don't let simplistic graphics fool you - it's merely a part of experience that makes it so charming and easy to follow. Anyway, this game has so much more to it than graphics. Where to begin...
Firstly, the story, even if a bit subtle sometimes, is superb, spotlighting different aspects of in-game universe depending on particular gameplay decisions (I just couldn't kill anyone, let alone hurt or insult).
Secondly, music. Oh boy, there's no way to describe HOW MUCH I liked it. Must be Toby's Magnum Opus, no less.
And most importantly, Undertale provokes some kind of feeling, barely comparable with... Bitter nostalgia? Surely, it's rather hard to come up with fitting term for it, but this feeling is so awesome, so rewarding, and yet devastating and desperate...
Well, I hope these ramblings would help someone to get an idea of the game's nature (who am I even kidding, my opinion is way too subjective).
All in all, solid 9/10.
Or rather NINE ????ING MEGALOVANIAS OUTTA TEN
P.S. I've never thought there might possibly be anything better than music Toby made for Homestuck. Turns out I was wrong!
