Oxxidation posted:my personal take on it is that they were a lot more outgoing when they were younger but their insecurity over the whole "human" thing caused them to start acting out, and their parents' divorce drove them fully into their shell. if the townspeople's anecdotes are accurate then asriel was the only person left that they stayed close to, so they're probably not doing so well without him around I wonder when the player first started taking control of Kris. When things about the past are brought up no one seems to remember Kris as being the silent, standoffish weirdo that they are while under the player's control. My guess would be either around the time of the divorce or when Asriel left. Also I hope we'll be able to return Kris's copy of "How to Draw Dragons" at some point in the full game. At least I assume it's Kris's copy, I don't see Asriel as being the type of Good Boy to let a library book become 2,583 days overdue. If it is Kris's though that would make sense as to why, like the knife, the player isn't able to interact with it or even know it's there at any point during the time that they're in control of Kris. zetamind2000 fucked around with this message at 20:21 on Sep 18, 2019 |

Little back a ways, but Gaster's thematic tie to Undertale seems largely bound in the negative aspects of determination; reckless experimentation for the sake of seeing what happens next, like Flowey or Genocide route (though I don't feel like Gaster is focused much on explicitly harming others). For Noelle, I get the impression that she doesn't really have anything against Kris despite the past pranks, and is used to helping out with schoolwork - but Kris doesn't usually approach her of late without some specific ask in mind, so when you try talking about just anything in general, she gets concerned that something's wrong and it's only then that she thinks to ask why Kris visited her dad. (Relatedly, an amusing consequence of going to the Hospital first is that Kris will ask Berdly to go to Rudy's window when you greet him afterwards.) Also, I get feeling the Dark World's going to involve a video game and the mayor at some point.

I'd assume people wouldn't shut up about Undertale in the chat, the fanbases overlap I'd also assume he was lying about not having played it before, I get it, blind playthroughs get more views

I just finished the archive, it was nice to see his usually-unbroken facade crumble towards the end. "It's not that I don't want to cry on stream, whatever, but...I'm a sobber, so, I'd rather not" Also really amazing the things that made him absolutely lose it being relatively mundane stuff, but he just completely disintegrated at temmie village iirc Not really sure who he is, I think a speedrunner? But the playthrough was great. If you follow him post whenever he does DDLC, that ought to be a hoot if he manages to survive unspoiled before playing it, especially now that he announced he will be.

That has no business sounding as good as it does. For the intro part, at least. After that it's a little wonky.

The 8bitryan one though is...well I am glad he is enjoying himself but boy howdy this is some sensory overload unnecessary zaniness youtuber stuff. Just constant zoom womp womp laugh track cut cut loud noise cricket chirps cut facepalm stuff, rarely letting the content speak for itself.

https://twitter.com/otherRPG/status/1178688808876941312 Saw this back when UT was really taking off and have been lightly following it. Figured it wouldn't be too bad if I left a small plug for it here as it's combat aims for a similar kind of style.

TheNamedSavior posted:No, she didn't? Mettaton doesn't own a human soul, and her goals were just to cure depression, nothing that she did had any effect on the fate of the underground, it was Mettaton's fault for actually trying to kill the child where Alphys was blinded by Mental Illness (It is VERY HEAVILY implied in the game that she was going to kill herself if it wasn't for her chance meeting with Undyne). They put Sans from Undertale in Smash.

Alphys is a well written character who has done reprehensible things and also just generally lovely things as a friend so it's understandable to dislike her

I have an opinion about Alphys, but it's okay if your opinion is different from my opinion. You have to agree with me that anime is real, though.

I love that Alphys's theme, like Alphys herself, puts its worst foot forward musically so that you kind of hate it when it starts but it goes on it becomes more nuanced and an actual good song by the time you get like a minute into it.

I'm genuinely curious what it is about disliking Alphys that sets people off. People always try to psychoanalyze you like you must hate Alphys because you hate women, or because you project onto her and are self loathing, or because you're homophobic. The one that always gets me is "you know it implies she was going to kill herself right???" As if they're accusing you of being responsible for a fictional character's implied hypothetical death. I cant think of any other character that gets people so defensive

Which is a weird tact to take because her principle flaws, outside of crippling insecurity, is just plain incompetence and blame-shifting. She's responsible for Asriel becoming a soulless monster flower, what happened to the Amalgams, and helping Asgore with his insanely lovely plan to break the Barrier, and largely just kind of coasted to disaster off the back of all of Gaster's already misbegotten work.
