Some things that bugged me, since I already said how great the game was:

  • The random encounters get boring and tedious after the first or second encounter with said creature. (Luckily there's only a handful of times where you have to fight the same creatures more than twice, and you can usually run away anyway)
  • Bullet hell style combat isn't for everyone. (although the bosses are usually fun, and very few opponents are very difficult)
  • Sometimes the terrain art style looked bad to me. I get it's going for that NES style, and usually it looks fine, but there are a few zones that are legit ugly.
  • The game is a little short for me.
  • I probably would of been frustrated in a handful of situations if I didn't have someone playing along with me. For example, the event where you need to memorize piano notes, or when you don't know whether "mercy" is an option for a couple bosses.

Spoiler: Endgame neutral (click to show/hide)

For example, the event where you need to memorize piano notes

That's totally optional, though. I technically did it in my current run, but I haven't actually utilized the thing you get from it.

Also, the damn song can't get out of my head, so I don't have to memorize anymore.

Spoiler: LITERALLY EVERYTHING (click to show/hide)

EDIT: Okay, replayed it!

Playtimes so far:

1. Pacifist: 8 hours
2. Genocide: didn't beat, but about 3 hours to get to the point where I quit. It was about an hour until I actually quit. It'd probably be two or three more before I went on. I didn't really want to do that anyway.
3. Pacifist run Deux: 4.5 hours. Cut 3.5 hours off by basically knowing everything already I think.

I finally beat Undyne in Genocide run. That fight was hard ;/ (And yes, I know I'm going to have a bad time later. Just let me have this.)

If anyone else is having trouble, I highly recommend equipping both the Torn Notebook and Goggles so that you can get through the spears easier.

The moment when the "!" for encounters turns to a smiley face was SO CREEPY.

Luckily for monsterkind, I'm terrible at dodging Undynes spears.

Me too. Luckily once you fail that fight enough times you know the Green Heart shield patterns by heart...once you can do those almost perfectly it's a lot easier to win while getting bashed by a few spears.

I saw a video of someone doing that true final boss battle and noped out of there.

Man, this game is so good. Finished True Pacifist a few days ago. Probably one of the funniest games I've ever played. And the soundtrack is fantastic.

Ok so i just learned that Samael (a dragon furry artist drawing fetish art) as actually a secret boss in this game.
Youtube comments under footage of the hero fightig him are on fire "because furries".

OH WELL.
If you end up fighting a dagon waving his butt at you you know who to blame :P

*HINT*
Blame furries.

i normally try to be tolerant of furries and stuff, but undertale isn't really the place for a fetish OC, furry or no.

I wonder if the boss's name is apologizing to everyone because Toby had to include them somehow anyway due to the payment (but at least did so in a very out of the way, secret, obscure place).  Or maybe I'm reading into it too much.

it's kinda a pun. he starts the encounter by running into you and stating "I'm so sorry!"
