Not pictured - the entire stream chat telling him to spare Sans, with no one warning him about the trap.

Spoiler

Ahahahahahahahaha

I didn't think I would laugh so hard. I love how he actually lowered his guard and was clearly getting misty eyed.

 

[A Link to the Past]

a

Spoiler

spooky scary one

oooohhooooohh

also

Spoiler

seems pretty obvious that he is related to sans and papyrus somehow

depends how far you go, but that seems to be the popular interpretation

Well, (All Everything Spoilers)

Spoiler

The names of Sans weapons, along with his sprite similarity to the brothers, and him also being a font seems to indicate he is. Whether he's their third bro or whatever is more up for debate

What kind of made me suspect that

Spoiler

he was a skeleton is the bunny shop owner who mentioned how skeletons came to town, but never specified that it was just Sans and Papyrus.

Hope this is the right place to ask but I'm having a real hard time having my game recognize my save file.

So I originally played a few hours or so of the game on an older Macbook. Got a new Mac today and copied the game and the save files over to the new mac. However, when I boot the game, it treats it like I'm just starting out - "name the fallen human."

The saves are in this folder /Library/Application Support/com.tobyfox.undertale/. I simply copied and pasted it into the new Mac's Application Support directory.

I've unistalled and reinstalled the game (originally purchased from Humble Bundle) but that's not working. Something isn't right and I'd GREATLY appreciate your help other than "you shouldn't have bought a Mac."

I can't help you unfortunately, but if you're having a huge amount of trouble you should message toby direct on twitter, I hear he's pretty good with responding to peeps with tech trouble - he provided save files for one guy whose files corrupted eg.

Muffet is wrecking me while doing a pacifist run. How do I survive?

Muffet is wrecking me while doing a pacifist run. How do I survive?

if you have any bake sale goods with you she'll be delighted that you've given to the cause. Otherwise you're gonna have to just enjoy spider dance a lot.

good thing it's a great song.

/edit oh, and stay determined

 

[demidar]

I love Spider Dance, it's one of my favourite songs. Sucks that the boss fight is so short.

 

[jonjonaug]

Muffet is wrecking me while doing a pacifist run. How do I survive?

Pay her when she's about to unleash her pet muffin-spider on you, since those are the hardest rounds. If you struggle a few times she'll lower the price to go easy on you.

Sparing her doesn't involve any gimmicks, you just wait until the fight is over. It is possible to end the fight instantly if

Spoiler

you eat one of the spider food items from all the way back in the Ruins in front of her

.

 

[Dunkley]

That's... not right, I don't think? I did that and

Spoiler

Asriel was still there even after I reloaded the save.

I just missed

Spoiler

him the first time I went back through the ruins because I didn't think to go ALLLLL the way back to the beginning, past all the NPCs I was aware of being there from before.

Nope, definitely not there if you reload your save. I checked.

Spoiler

Might depend on if you have saved after the Final Boss battle

He disappears after

seeing the credits.

Saving and loading before that is fine.

I'm stuck listening to Asgore while working, makes everything pretty epic.

Doesn't Dogsong fit into that too?

Boss themes are fucking epic. Even the one you get fighting Napstablook.

the first time I really appreciated the music was during

when the

Spoiler

"You're blue now. That's my attack" part happened and the music kicked up a notch

I knew this game was going to be fucking incredible.

I liked everything up to that point but that blew past my expectations.



Also it looks like Undertale passed 200,000 copies sold on steam http://steamspy.com/app/391540

Game deserves all the success it's getting.

Finally Toby will be able to eat the DELUXE pack of instant noodles he always craved.

Preach it. 101 tracks for less than 10 bucks was a goddamn steal.

Finally Toby will be able to eat the DELUXE pack of instant noodles he always craved.

If Toby has to worry about money ever again, capitalism has failed.

Thought this might interest some people; Yahtzee of "Zero Punctuation" fame wrote a piece on the game (WARNING for Pacifist Spoilers!).

Seems like he liked it quite a bit.

 

[Dr. Buni]

Gah, I wish I could take screenshots natively. Is it possible to take screenshots with Fraps and then upload them on Steam?

 

[Stone Ocean]

Gah, I wish I could take screenshots natively. Is it possible to take screenshots with Fraps and then upload them on Steam?

There's a workaround for it yeah. There's a tutorial on the steam forum for the game, basically go to the steam screenshot folder in your PC, create a folder with Undertale's ID and put the screenshot there, naming it using Steam's file naming style. From then on it'll show up in your screenshot library, just upload them afterwards.

Ye, he also mentionned a few times during his Dark Souls "Drown out" that he enjoyed Undertale quite a bit, it made me pretty happy. Not many things can melt ol' Yahtzee's icy heart

Yay! Fantastic... Will do it for my second playthrough maybe ^^

True Reset Question:

Spoiler

I'm replaying a Pacifist Run, and I got to the Judgement hallway with Sans, but no matter how many times I talk to Undyne, the Alphys letter isn't initiating. Am I locked into Neutral ending?

Spoiler

Pretty sure you have to do the neutral first no matter what, then it gives you the option to go back and do the letter stuff immediately after the credits, just like the first run through.

Good writeup.
You can basically write and essay on the narrative techniques this game employs.

 

[Alex]

Spoiler

Among all of the Sans/Gaster, etc talk from the total end I never realized how many variations the neutral ending could have

[meltingparappa]

the first time I really appreciated the music was during

Spoiler

Papyrus

boss fight. the second variation blew my fucking mind.

The second the beat dropped and I realized that the 'blue attack" signaled the start of an actual threatening boss fight, my eyes widened and I lurched forward in my chair.

It was a really memorable early game moment that I only last felt during MGS Rising.

 

[DukeBobby]

Just popping in to say that I'm a couple of hours into the game and loving it so far.

Now to leave before I accidentally click on one of those white bars.

What happened to the Alpys in the Undyne Toriel ending? I didn't think it was possible to kill Alpys.

Spoiler

If i remember correctly there are certain things that imply that Alphys was suicidal and may have gone through with it in certain endings. So maybe that.

 

[Dimmle]

i made hog wild spoilers

So well realized I'm having flashbacks.

 

[El Odio]

I picked this up on a whim last night and about an hour in I'm really enjoying it. The music is fantastic and the humor has gotten a laugh out of me more than once. For whatever reason I'm deciding to go for the pacifist run on my first go through and don't seem to be doing that bad (I just passed the multicolored tile puzzle in the snow area.)

 

[Green Mamba]

I would have to agree that the

Spoiler

"You're blue now"

was definitely the turning point from "pretty cool and funny" to "Oh shit."

 

[Ferrio]

Same.

At that point you thought you had the game figured out.

I think my favourite pastime right now is to watch people tearing up at Undertale, while crying rivers simultaneously lol
The dude's reaction is great

Spoiler

GETTTTTTTT DUNKED ON

 

[Granjinha]

So, someone posted some incredible fan-arts from the boss battles (i'm using the Asgore one as a wallpaper) now but i can't find it. It had every single boss battle with an insane highly detailed illustration. Anyone has the links?

 

[El Odio]

I just completed the date segment...

Spoiler

There are no words for that other than Papyrus has easily become the best character in this game.

Are you talking about these? (Spoilers)

 

[mbpm1]

Those look amazing

Spoiler

although I think the Sans one should have more of him bouncing you off walls

 

[BrawlPurist]

Welp I finally mustered up the gumption

Spoiler

or determination, if you will,

to finish hog-wild.

SPOILERS AHEAD FOR PORCINE RUN:

Spoiler

Sans took me seven tries, on account of knowing a lot of the patterns going in, and having a good stock of healing items (pie, heroes, snowman , facesteak). It's a crazy fun fight, though and I'm "happy" to have done it. Or at least as happy as you can be after killing all your friends. Time to pay a visit to the trash can, wipe the slate clean, get everybody to the surface, and close the door on the worst of times.

And maybe, just let the guy get some sleep.

Man this orchestral version of Papyrus's theme is something else

Jazz Undertale! Orchestral Undertale! GIVE THEM TO MEEEEE

 

[Psyrgery ES]

BUT PAPYRUS IS THE BEST OF ALL OF THEM

You know guys...

Don't laugh at me, but...

Someday, I'd like to climb this mountain we're all buried under.

Hey, that's my dream too!

I serious can't fucking believe how amazing this fucking game is.

I can't even.

I can't.

It's literally past every other game I was considering for goty.
