When Undertale first came out, I took a look at it off of my friend's account via Steam Family Sharing, it had overwhelmingly positive reviews, no matter how much my opinions differ from wider demographics, that's got to mean something. I was bored, I barely took a look at it. Seemed right good enough for me. Well, I opened it, and got right in. I was all into it, enjoying the music, writing, goats, other stuff, man, it was great!

Then, getting along, right out of the RUINS, I see, "by TOBY FOX." Golly! I should of picked up on his humor quicker! I've been listening to every song this guy and his buddies have written for years! But, not knowing much about his early experiences with Earthbound romhacking, just maybe vaguely hearing of it, I had no idea he was such an extremely talented game developer! He did all of it! He made THIS game! In Andrew Hussie's basement! Speaking of Andrew Hussie, last time I checked he did make/is still making Homestuck, right? And Toby and his team made around 600 songs for it! Man, what a noble circle of people who are friends!

But wait, everybody HATES Homestuck, because it's really bad, right? Well maybe, but it seems also that like every other fanbase in existence, it's fanbase is VERY ANNOYING AND HORRIBLE. Looks like a suspect if I ever saw one! Andrew's earned his work a bad name because it exists too much and some stupid people are just too dang enthusiastic about it, and these stupid people are going to be the face of Homestuck to any newcomers that happen to stop by.

Homestuck itself is just a good 'ol really complex and inaccessible narrative story with multimedia elements, and Hussie's written it well! But just because there's nothing wrong with it doesn't mean everyone's not going to hate it anyway because of the hatred that's been established for its idiotic representatives. These are unwavering facts.

When I first got into Undertale, it felt like my own, it felt like something fantastic, something personal to me, something special. That feeling lasted for the duration that I was playing it, but as soon as I lifted my head up, I saw that Undertale had already succumed to the horrible forces of dimwitted humanity's presidence over the internet and its associated culture. It's done for.

This happens to everything that's too popular for its own good.

However, unlike Homestuck, a lot of people are still going to like Undertale, no matter how stupid everything is, probably because it's way easier for everybody to appreciate. It's a little less overbearing to understand completely.

It's sad, but, if you're me, you're used to it by now. Everything's pretty mediocre when it comes down to it. Sub-par, if you will, though the par is only something we could dream of.

Personally, I'm sticking with TowerClimb, since I don't see it getting overwhelmingly popular any time soon, the community is good, and the fanbase currently consists of literally less than 80 people. Small is good now. Don't dream of sprawling fame, the kind of fans you care about will be drowned out in idiot jerks. That's the proper, universally understood term. Idiot jerks.

Hey, so what, it sucks, there's a lot of problems out there to deal with. I've gotta deal with it, you may or may not have to deal with it, depending on what your standards are. Not having standards is a luxury, I can't do it though, I can't throw away my dignity, I just don't want to very much. That doesn't mean I don't have to be nice to people, even if they're furries, have a whole lot of conflicting views, or are just really irritating in general. Though I can get a little cocky up here on the digital pedestal, and slander general demographics, when it really comes down to it, it's my job to be nice to everyone, no matter how bad they're ruining everything I care about collectively.

...

I might need to try a little harder.

Well, why don't you give your opinion on the whole deal, though I think a lot of people might want to bypass the wall of text I've just produced and move on to other matters.

I'll be around.

As Toby Fox said "my last wish for undertale is that when discussion of it fades it dies peacefully instead of morphing into a garbage cesspool". Looks like his wish might not come true at this rate, considering some of the things this fandom has been doing.

lol, you really should do a bit of googling to check if original posters plagiarize their content.
