Controls are a bit of a ♥♥♥♥♥ to learn if you're stubborn like me and want to play on keyboard, but once you figure that out you've got a really solid stealth/action game with a classic off-the-walls Kojima plot as a nice extra bit of seasoning

Ahh, rockstar. the gaming giants, creating the ultimate crime playgrounds since the 90's.

Then GTA V comes out, becoming one of the best-selling games of all time. there was a wide world to explore, 3 protagonists, all with different abillities and backgrounds, and some of the most beautiful graphics to exist at the time. Sadly, the initial release didn't include a PC version, and everyone was annoyed, since a PC version means tons and tons of mods to enhance the gameplay. Then, a "Next-Gen" version came out, with improved graphics, realistic First person mode and... still no PC release. Everyone got a bit more annoyed.
Finally, 3 years after the initial release of GTA V, the PC Version comes out, and the internet Rejoices. The Community is hard at work creating new mods, like the hulk, a zombie apocalypse, a trainer that lets you do ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ anything. All is well until just today, when it was revealed that the backbone of GTA modding, OPENIV, got a cease and desist.
Everyone is going ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ berserk, and they have the right to. I can understand banning people for using mods in multiplayer, but making it near-impossible for your community to continue enjoying a game they've bought 3 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ TIMES!?

While my point remains above, I will keep my word and return my positive opinion of the game.
Game's great, just that rockstar has trouble listening to it's fans sometimes.

Earthbound + Homestuck + Touhou + Feels: The game

Okay, That's not the most accurate description in the world, but if you want to know what I actually feel about the game, keep reading.

I first heard of this game after scrolling through Ifunny and finding a picture of a pixellated skeleton talking about spaghetti. I was confused, and assumed this was from OFF, another video game that I was uninformed about (and still am) at the time. As time went on, I realized that "OFF" had a different art style than I remembered it having, and went into more investigation. Eventually, I found out the name: UNDERTALE, and noticed several of my close friends at school had taken an interest in the game, mainly my crush. From what I saw of the game at that point, there were two skeletons named after typefaces, and a flower. And, that was about it. So, one day, I downloaded the demo, and found out about the flower's nefarious intentions, and met a motherly goat woman, who literally held my hand throughout the first section of the game, before going off to run some errands, leaving me unattended.

From there, I explored the ruins and fought monsters nonchalantly, with little consideration of the MERCY or ACT buttons, with a belief they were simply options that allowed for a slightly different ending with largely unaffected gameplay. I continued to believe this, picking up the full version after getting stuck in a room with a breakaway floor that I couldn't solve. When I found out the same problem was present in the full game, I sat for 5 minutes, wondering where I was supposed to go, before I found the solution, and continued in my progress. Soon, I met a comically depressed ghost and discovered the importance of the ACT and SPARE buttons, as they allowed me to conclude the fight peacefully. The ghost bid me farewell, and I progressed onward to The goat woman's house, where she caringly checked to see if I was okay, and invited me inside. After a short while in this humble abode, I took a short nap in my new room, awaking to find a slice of cinnamon-butterscotch pie. I took it, knowing I'd likely have to use it soon, and inquired about how to leave the Ruins. My Adoptive Goat mother left quietly into the basement, and I soon followed. What ensued was a heartstring-tugging battle, which I won by showing nothing but MERCY. The goat woman hugged me tightly, wishing me well on my journey, and I left silently.

What proceeded afterwards would most likely be too much of a spoiler to speak of in this review, but I can outline it.

You will have several romantic outings with two skeleton brothers
You will Duel a Fish Woman Determined to take your soul
You will Fight a spider woman who wants your money
You will have a dance-off with an effeminate robot
You will hear the heartbreaking tale of the monsters' hopes of seeing freedom crushed
You will Discover you aren't the first human to fall into the underground
You will find out the evil flower has a closer relationship to the royalty than anyone may think
You will be forced to take the soul of a broken man who only wishes to see his children and wife
You will remind another child what love feels like
You will hug the main antagonist
You will have a good time
You will stay determined
You will have fun
You will cry
But...
No crying until the ending!

Haunt the house before Haunt the house existed, but better.

Pros:
Multiple ghosts with specialized areas to be placed.
Everyone has a little backstory, even the ghosts.
More ghosts to unlock by finding out how to free them from where they're chained.
You can see what the sim-like characters are seeing.
Ghosts can get new abillities and level up.
Cool cinematic view where it follows one person in their adventures for as long as you want.

Cons:
Danse macabre doesn't play Danse macabre.
No level creation.
Sometimes the ghost's hints aren't very helpful. I still have no idea how I would be able to break the brain guy's jar.

Overall, a very good game. 8 out of 10.

This Game is a waste of time and money. If Pewdiepie never played this, the game would have never even made more than 5 sales, It's just that bad. So what if you're a goat? WHO CARES IF IT'S CHAOTIC BECAUSE IT ISN'T! THE CHAOS NEVER STAYS AND
THE GAME IS REPETITIVE, ANNOYINGLY GLITCHY, AND EXHAUSTS ONE JOKE! You're a goat and the game is glitchy.




Jk 20/10



















No. Seriously, this game sucks.
