The genocide route has a bunch of story and character development on it.

It kinda reminds me of that one jerk from Firefly, who was all "I'm going to torture you to get to know you better."

Well, its not the datamining itself thats bad, me thinks, its just the fact people are posting the stuff that got found out because of it on the internet, and there's a message by toby among the game's sound files expressively asking people to not post the secrets they find online for everyone to see, or else he won't make any more secrets :v
This message, when I learned about its existence, incidentally made me more inclined to search/post secrets on the internet. Yay for reverse psychology?

That seems a bit mean. Not everyone's even capable of datamining: some people's understanding of computers are just enough to run a game and not much else. Others don't necessarily have the time or patience for it.

Undertale is a story as much as a game, and stories deserve to be shared. Most of the mined data is story-relevant, isn't it? I mean, if it's not, that's one thing, but if it is, well, it deserves to be passed around.

i don't see anything wrong with looking stuff up that's been datamined, only posting about it unsolicited on public forums

I'm perfectly willing to talk about stuff that is either definitely not in the game or definitely in the game. If there's any ambiguity about that, I probably won't talk about it. There are examples I've seen of all three (definitely in, definitely not, unsure). I probably won't come up with any without being asked.

Undertale is a story as much as a bullet-hell game

It's not "bullet hell" though. It's more like those "space shooter" type of games.

It's a bullet hell, just the easiest damn bullet hell you've ever played.

That kind of makes it not bullet hell by definition.

"Bullet hell" doesn't have "hell" in it's name for no reason, you know.

So bullet purgatory, then?

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

At at least one point this game is definitely a bullet hell, with emphasis on hell :P

The controls are sluggish, so it is hell.

Yeah, the only knock I'll give this game is the inability to make Frisk move above a casual stroll. I know a lot of the point is to take your time, but you think s/he would at least jog when Undyne is chasing, and it would make backtracking a little less tedious.

Then again I belong to the 'gotta go fast' school of thought. :P

You draaaaaag your heart around in the box. I know it shouldn't be too twitchy but getting out of the way of things takes quite a bit of time. This is very prevalent in Asriel's fight. You can turn on a dime, but then you have to wait as you hold down the key to move across the box.
