Undertale

werupenstein's Undertale (PC) review

A unique experience that I didn't like playing

I loved the creativity and the story of this game, but that was about it.

I had intended to go pacifist and I did only kill one monster in my entire playthrough, unfortunately that was the first encounter, probably the worst monster to kill; before I became familiar with the game mechanics.

I really hated the playing part of this game, massive difficulty spikes combined with not knowing what you were doing in boss fights was a real drag.

Keyboard controls were annoying for this game, I used to use the arrow keys for most games up until only a few years ago and I forced myself to learn WASD, it's painful to go back.

I guess most people hated the puzzle parts at the start of this game, they weren't hard and I thought they were fine.

I wanted to like this game, and I did get something out of it, but I can't say I'd recommend it as a game to have fun with.

So... I just got to the very end of this game and, Wow. I just had to give my wholehearted recommendation as soon as I can, because, I mean, wow.I had pretty high expectations going into this game. I played the demo and even paid three times the minimum asking price into its Kickstarter. Still, it waaaay exceeded my expectations in a pretty incredible way. I had some doubts based on early previews, but I'm glad they did not turn out true.Undertale is a game about love and compassion. It is an Ea...
