One thing that confuses me to death about tumblr is that they can go from absolutely adoring something to despising it over the course of a couple years, like all of tumblr is collectively ashamed of liking it as much as they did. Like Homestuck, SuperWhoLock, and Benedict Cumberbatch are now super shameful even though it was Tumblr’s lifeforce a couple years back.
Calling it right now, in a couple years, a large portion of tumblr will look back on Undertale with a slight sense of shame. Yeah, it’s an amazing game (and I could talk for hours about how good it is), but two years from now, we’re going to be looking at it the same way we see Homestuck right now.
Two and a half years later
So this post has been making the rounds and I wanna make something entirely clear.
Undertale is still a good game and while I don’t care for Sherlock and stuff, finding enjoyment in something that does not harm others is a good thing because it’s made to be enjoyed.
