I played Undertale for like 20 minutes, and while im intrigued, I got a lot of games to play. What the fffuuuck, this looks like a really confusing tribute to me. I think i'll try playing again.

I got just long enough into Undertale to be intrigued, but I'm worried if I finish it I'll just want to play it again for a different ending.
Never made it out of the Ruins, right? Try to stick it out, the Ruins were made for backers of the kickstarter as a demo like 2 years before the actual game came out. There's a fairly staggering difference in quality, both of gameplay and writing, between the Ruins and entering Snowdin, the area immediately after. Once you meet Sans and Papyrus, the game pretty much never lets up, constantly throwing new things at you. Just remember, it's possible to beat the game without ever using the fight command outside of one fight later on, if you don't want to kill anyone.

There's a podcast hosted by our very own Chip Cheezum and General Ironicus, the Chipod Ironicast(which is also pretty good in itself, shame it's so sparsely produced), where they ran down what they liked about Undertale in the first half hour of it, which I think very eloquently explains what they enjoyed about it without spoiling too much.

I'd recommend, as well, checking things twice as you go through the game, there's quite a few things that give different remarks the second time. Same goes for the cell phone, you can call up some characters you get the phone numbers of and they will have different dialogue for every single room in the game, and most of it is hilarious. That's all I'll say about it though.

it's weird to see something related to Life is Strange that's funny as opposed to completely soul destroying

I like this a lot. Part of the fun of Undertale for me was visualizing what's actually happening during battles, because it's super vague, and I think this was along the right lines.

Early in the game that character asks you if you prefer cinnamon or butterscotch, and follows it up shortly after by asking if you DISLIKE the one you didn't choose.

Yes, it's a short game, about 4-9 hours depending on how much exploring(of the world and mechanics/easter eggs) you do, and once you leave the Ruins it becomes a much better game. It's only ten bucks on steam and has been on a ton of 2015 GOTY lists, it's worth picking up.

Generally, yes, being on a lot of people's favorite game lists tends to mean a lot of people enjoyed it

Giantbomb.com had a "list your top 10 of 2015" thing for a few weeks and at the end, undertale had the 6th or 7th most mentions in people's top 10 out of like 2500 people. Really impressive for a one man production ten dollar indie game, especially considering how good a year for games 2015 was.
