What are you playing right now? VI

[Varrok]

Come on, don't give up before even starting! You can do it, eventually!

[JayDee]

Any of you Dunderfail fanboys got any tips?

I put Undertale down after a true pacifist run and then beating Undyne The Undying a few months back. The only advice I can really give is to drink a SeaTea (whichever the one is that gives you a speed boost) and move as little as possible during the times she throws spears at you.

Besides that I've been playing a fuck tonne of Skyrim. An incomprehensible amount of mods to add new quests and such, and my favourite past time is seeing which ENB's make my computer cry the loudest.

Has anyone finished The Witness? Is all this effort actually leading anywhere?

I have read about the ending and yes. Although expect a hefty dose of pretension

[Mac Sirloin]

I'm glad everyone is playing Undertale. I love this game, and since Earthbound is finally, finally goddamn mawfugginfinally being released for a stable portable platform, I'm in the perfect mood for both of these games.

I'm on my first run, I just reached the Core. I've gone total pacifist so far, though I did have to look up how to get past Toriel (yup) and Undyne. I'm dreading that I might not get what I want out of the ending based on how I played, and I'm not even sure if I'll bother to beat the game some other way once I've completed this pacifist run. I just love that I can play an entire game without having to kill anything.

As a pacifist should I still be at LV 1 with 20 HP?

I'm hoping this gets released for the 3DS at some point, although apparently it would require a wholesale reprogramming of the game. It's just such a nice game.

Right now I'm trying to defeat Undyne the Undying in Undertale Undercide rUn and it's fucking infuriating. Any of you Dunderfail fanboys got any tips?

Sorry. I really do love Undertale. It's a great game. But this fight is driving me up the wall.

So, I'm not sure if you've already figured this out but Undyne's attacks get faster and faster as the fight progresses. You can reset this speed by using the 'flee' option after she changes your soul red. I think it takes four or five rounds of attacks before she follows up an attack with a little spear-sweep that changes your heart from green to red. At that point you can go to 'mercy' and just flee the battle.

You'll have about five seconds to put some distance between the two of you or use healing items on the overworld before she chases you down and the fight resumes. You can do this three times, after which you'll just be able to flee as soon as she catches you.

Or, you're talking about a format for this fight that I haven't seen during my pacifist run and this isn't helpful at all.

[Varrok]

Don't worry about it.

Also, pacifist ending is meh. Fortunately, you don't get this one first.

Still, no need to worry, carry on.

[Mr. Bungle]

OH, sorry, Mac, should've specified. I'm doing the Genocide run. Makes fighting Undyne a lot tougher.

I'll try doing it again with some of those speed items, but is it really worth losing the HP restore slot(s)? I'm already saving half my space (Astronaut food, pie and snowman pieces) for the final boss, hear the fight is nigh-impossible without them.

[Varrok]

Don't use speed items, not worth it IMO.

Genocide > Pacifist

[Crashpunk]

I've had Undertale installed on my Hard Drive for months and have yet to try it.

I gotta devote some time to it and see what all the fuss is about.

[Xorlidyr]

Oooh yes.

[Mr. Bungle]

Genocide > Pacifist

Fuck that, maybe if you hate yourself. Neutral ending's where it's at.

Photoshop Flowey is one of the coolest looking bosses I've ever seen.

[Varrok]

Agreed, Neutral run is definitely the best

[Nepsotic]

Undertale is like the new Five Nights at Freddie's. I can't wait for all the forced sequels.

[Alf Shall Rise]

Even though you're probably not serious, I'm pretty sure Toby Fox has already said that he really doesn't want to make a sequel to it. Assuming his opinion doesn't change, of course. Hopefully it doesn't.

[Mr. Molluck]

Undertale is like the new Five Nights at Freddie's. I can't wait for all the forced sequels.

FNAF is like ancient history now. I remember all the hype, reading tons of the comedic fan fiction, watching animations done in Source Filmmaker, the works!

Now it's pretty much nonexistent. As a creative person, this is a terrible sign; something brilliant, original, or just decent enough to earn a fanbase falls off the face of the entertainment world? That shows that SOMETHING integral to it isn't good enough to make it, and in turn the series or other related stuff, memorable.

I've only ever played the demo, and it's boring, but I love the world, story, and characters of Undertale. Unlike FNAF, a LOT of thought put into the details of the game, like lore, was put in from the beginning. If any new stuff arrives, it's gonna be carefully made to stick.

[Varrok]

If somebody makes a comparison about Undertale and FNAF, he never played Undertale

[STM]

To be honest I just thought FNAF was boring. I played about 40 minutes on Steam over two different playthroughs and just got tired of it.

Undertale is gorgeous. I completed it on Pacifist and didn't realise that the True Pacifist ending has more to it than just not killing anyone, so you have to go back and start from the beginning.

Yeah, fucking Flowey is awesome though, his true-form boss music is the shit.

Also...

[Varrok]

This one is better:



Also, you didn't have to restart from the beginning if you spared everyone on the first run

[MA]

this just reminded me of annoying dog. that little shit.

[Vlam]

Undertale on 3DS would be great.

[Moot]

Replaying Drak Sools in preparation for DS3, real excited (specially for that lore). M&B Mod: Asoiaf, repping them Blackfyre's. Also trying to beat Abe's Oddysee, not enjoying it as much as Exoddus though.

Aside from that, been real bored!

[Alf Shall Rise]

Upper Cathedral Ward and Hypogean Gaol in Bloodborne are proving to be significant roadblocks for me. GodDAMN are they frustrating

Bloodborne looks amazing. If only I had a playstation! I really hope it comes to PC ;--;

[Alf Shall Rise]

Bloodborne is fuuuun. I think I prefer its entire art direction and style more than the Souls games, which is saying a lot. A PC release would be nice but I have no idea if it would ever happen.

[Nepsotic]

I'd be so hard if Bloodborne and DeS were released on PC.

[Moot]

Yiss, I need that in my life. I've always wanted to play Demon Souls.

[Varrok]

I have played and completed Demon's Souls. It's less polished than DS. As far as I remember there were no flasks, just 1 use grass healing collectable items.

It's definitely worth playing though. And it's a bit harder than DS.

[Alf Shall Rise]

I never got that far in Demon's Souls because I suck.

[MeechMunchie]

Has anyone finished The Witness? Is all this effort actually leading anywhere?

No and yes. In the sense that "no, but that's the point." And even as an artist-in-training, I don't think that kind of presmise really flies any more. Spoilers and explanation below.

[Slugology]

been playing the shit out of Grim Dawn, its basically Titan Quest 2 so im in love with it
