This game is a delight. You're making the right decision to not read the comments until after you've finished. People get really weird about wanting you to play the game in a specific way.

[@TPHRyan]

I feel like these people may struggle to distinguish fantasy from reality

[@isaic16]

I think it’s less that than it is knowing that not doing it that way means you have to do a full replay to get a particular ending, so people get aggressive to “help” the streamer to not have to do the extra work.

[@ediblepencil494]

@@isaic16 but they still shouldn't. it's completely fine if someone doesn't get "that" ending the first time. the other ending and its variants are great anyway.

[@Sylfa]

And in being weird about it, they basically ruined the game before I had a chance to try it. Sure, I can play it. But should I try to pretend I don't know the gimmick and just flip coins? Or should I go for one of the specific endings? Or should I just not bother and watch Symbalily play it? Hint: I'll do that last one. PS, imagine Outer Wilds community behaving like Undertale community? No-one would ever buy or play the game cause it'd have been ruined completely as soon as you hear about its existence. Luckily they don't and we get people going in blind and recording their wildly differing experiences and it's beautiful!

[@Sylfa]

@@isaic16 No, they aren't helping. I mean, sure some might, but the overall reputation of that community is that they will get aggressive and even go as far as threatening the streamer/content creator if they don't "play it right." I've seen more than one content creator that basically said, "I might play it on my own time, but I'm not making a video of it if I do, it's not worth it." Those "fans" are essentially ruining the sales of the game they are claiming to love. It's baffling to be honest.

[@davesonofdave8612]

Always remember that there is no wrong way to play Undertale. The whole point of the game is to have an experience that's unique to you. No matter how people might froth and foam at the mouth for it to be played "The right way."

[@penntopaper9305]

yeah plus getting it "wrong" first is part of the design on purpose lol. its 100% an intended feature

[@BleachWizz]

tbh I tried playing "the right way" because I just knew there were 2 intended ways to play the game. guess what, I still failed and didn't meet all requisites, had to go back and complete "the first right way"

​@BleachWizz there's literally not a right way, otherwise the game designer wouldn't have allowed you to do it wrong without a "game over"

I came here to make this exact comment. I've watched a couple playthroughs of Undertale, but Amber IMO has the perfect personality and disposition for it. One thing I love is that (so far) she is CHECKing all the monsters; the last person I saw play this went straight to trying different ACT options, you miss so much if you don't CHECK them first.

[@diegosotomiranda4107]

​​@@ModernArteryyes, personaly i avoid players that cut down forward SO much, specially in games with puzzles or heavy lore and story, why limiting your own experience, then being clueless and annoyed about what it's going on later on the story, i mean at least be consistente, if You actively skip dialogue and options since the start of the Game why bother about the story in the middle or further?

I think undertale fans have calmed down in the later years but then every now and again I’ll see one intense comment that’s a blast back to 2015 Anyway I feel like many people, myself included, are just scrambling hungrily for blind reactions since it’s very rare that people on the internet today don’t know anything about undertale at all

I finally came around to playing Undertale for the first time in 2020 during the pandemic. It ended up being one of the highlights of the year for me - game is just a masterpiece and a delight.

[@quest9905]

If you haven't yet, I seriously recommend you check out the Undertale Yellow fan game that came out recently. It's basically meant to be an Undertale prequel and is genuinely amazing. It has all the same character and charm that Undertale did while telling its own stories and not relying on using the characters from Undertale.

[@joshuathompson2404]

It is mind boggling to me that people could be mean to Amber. She always comes across as so genuine and kind, and above and beyond that always delivers great LPs that are consistently thoughtful and well considered; a byproduct of being a game dev, I imagine. I guess the internet is gonna internet at the end of the day :(

[@damianlecumberry7427]

1:00:13 Bro... Maybe I'm sentimental because of things happening on my life, but it's been so long since I heard this song, that I used to play on my guitar, since it was my old best friend's favorite (we fought and we don't see each other any longer)... I almost start crying hearing that guitar, my body relaxed and I felt... In home

[@Wh1teNoise616]

As a part of the undertale community we have calmed down a lot sense 2015.

Aw I loved how the game made you feel so many different ways about Toriel before you leave the ruins

[@salamanteri_]

I just wanted to say that I looked back at your older playthroughs, and your thumbnails and video titles are on point, just so good! I've watched all your Soulsborne series, Hollow Knight, Subnautica (not the last episodes though), Dredge and A Short Hike vids and I gotta say, you're my favourite gaming content creator hands down. Your enthusiasm for the games you play makes me want to play the games again, or get the games I haven't played yet. I think that might happen again with Undertale haha. Thanks for making content and happy upcoming New Year!

[@SymbaLily]

Thank you so much for such a lovely comment, seriously made my day.

[@rileyhopkins9940]

I couldn't be happier to see you start a new playthrough! It might be a good idea indeed to stay away from the comments, if not for the possible hate, for the spoilers. It's a game that needs to be played blind. You got this!

[@Teaspoon621]

Fun fact: if you kill Toriel, load your save and spare her, Flowey actually calls you out on it. He remembers you’re *_genocides_*

[@batsnake__113]

Breath of fresh air to have a new let's play that chooses not to read the comments (which yeah guessing you won't see this until Waaaaaaay later). Seeing you be so cautious of Toriel and everything that happens is so funny and clearly tell it's gonna be fun (Which also yeah it made me realize that when you put it like this Toriel is very ominous)

[@_WeDontKnow_]

NO WAYYYYY I love this game! I'm usually doubtful of media that has the amount of hype Undertale got, but I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it out. charming with a great soundtrack

[@badluckbrooks]

I always love to see people getting into this game/fandom. The ones who've been here since the beginning know how deep all this goes- but newcomers don't.

Bravo, truly bravo!

People are weird berating others to play a specific way. That said, there definitely is an intended way for the best experience, usually being neutral route first, then true pacifist, and finally the genocide route.
