Alright, so this means I have to face him first right?

Face who first?

Whatever the case, if it's your first run, just wing it. There's no wrong way to play the game, no matter what you do, but the less information you go in with, the better.

you clearly havent been on these forums enough to know who i am

His total time on these forums is a little under 20 times your own. Maybe you suck at making a good impression?

I'm trying to beat the whole game without using any items (armor weapons or food) just so i can have sans tell me not to brag
spoiler: I'm on Asgore now and it's loving HARD AS stuff because you can literally only take 3 hits the entire fight and i got literally ONE TURN away from beating him i am so mad

Ending flow chart doesn't say anything about avoiding weapons, just that you have to be LV 1. It could be wrong, though.

wouldn't unmixing take forever because it would have to be done by hand
or is SMF un-stupid enough to do that on its own

Presumably he has some backup and could put together a script that'll go through the topics in the old one and move them in the current board. But any new ones would have to be done by hand, making the likelihood of this getting done less and less as time goes on.

* sans of page 100.

* it also turns out that i'm the last person to post on this page.
* that's very sans of me.

You shoulda posted that like 4 pages later.

In something with as many subcultures and genres as videogames do I'd say the best answer is what games that are praised the most on average.

It's still subjective to a point, but there's still some order of which a game can be judged as one of 'the best'

"Most praised" doesn't equate to "best." The former can only be objective if you get a little more specific with the metrics, like equating praise to some type of score. The latter remains subjective, and just because you have some sort of objective measurement that's roughly comparable in scope doesn't mean you can socket it in as the objective definition of "best" just because there isn't one already.

Besides, that list must be wrong, because Crash Team Racing isn't on it, and a bunch of games I haven't played are.

hey guys i'm toby radiation fox, the guy who did the music for homestuck

Oh stuff guys, it's really him!!

Speaking of Toby Fox, he was actually on a stream a bit ago with some guys from the SSBM community - http://www.twitch.tv/meleeitonme/v/30024289

Their interview questions are pretty terrible and they go off on long rambling tangents without realizing Toby is even there, but there are a couple questions about Undertale if you want to sift through it. Sorry you had to put up with all that, Ipquarx!

Let's just remember that these "contests" and polls literally are completely meaningless and anyone putting any weight towards it acting like it means something and making a huge deal out of it, really needs to re-evaluate their priorities.

That's ironically what makes it so interesting to others, though. I hope Undertale wins so the message boards churn out more gems like "UNDERTALE HAS RUINED MY LIFE" and "If my child said they wanted to play Undertale I would disown them." It's hilarious, even if half of it is just trolling.

phazon is highly radioactive and kills/corrupts anything it comes in contact with. It'd make more sense if the recharge pellets did damage to players that come in contact with them

There are a couple exceptions, like the final boss of MP2 where you draw bits of the stuff into the charge beam to power it up and fire phazon back at it.

You know, when you have nothing to argue back with, the usual way out is to not say anything in response. Giving an insubstantial reaction statement just brings you attention that you want to avoid when running away. This normally goes without saying, but since you did the exact same thing last time, I figured I'd better tell you.

A quick look at the avatar was all I needed to know that your opinion is completely worthless.

Care to refresh my memory? I remember you being an idiot, but I can't remember exactly where I realized that. Were you the dumbass who tried to use a chat room for a dozen or so people watching E3 as an excuse to become moderator for a Steam group with three-thousand members?

Whatever the case, feel free to throw away your money away like a dope and/or foam from whatever orifice you like in reaction to any marketing materials. I've always believed people who waste their money on this sort of thing get what they deserve whether it works out or not. Maybe you'll get lucky, and Double Fine will realize there are better ways to keep the office warm than shoveling your money into the furnace.

The reason fig.co redirects to the Psychonauts campaign is because the site is a little more formal than something like Kickstarter, so Psychonauts is the only currently active campaign

There were two others that finished, Outer Wilds (which succeeded) and Anchors in the Drift (which failed)

Huh. I'm thinking "crowdfunding page for a double fine game" is pretty much the single worst thing you could use as the homepage of a formal games investment platform, but then it's two-thirds of the way funded, so what do I know? Some assurance of oversight is nice but I've heard Tim Schafer is a pain to work with so I expect disaster either way.

So how does fig.co work? Is it like kickstarter where if you don't reach your goal you don't get your money or do you get the money even if it's underfunded?

Well I type in the url and it redirects me straight to the Psychonauts campaign, so apparently it exists just for that one game. They probably didn't even consider the possibility of people wising up, because it's Psychonauts 2 - of course it's gonna be funded by a bunch of dopes who started foaming at the mouth 3 seconds into the announcement trailer.

???

Gets you like 10 extra hp, on top of sans' 1. Pretty sure the 9999999 damage will still kill him.

sans is confirmed dead cause you hear the sound of a monster turning to dust when he goes offscreen

To be fair though, that's the same sound you hear when you spare a monster too.

Not that any "sans is still alive" theory matters anyway, when the whole world got murdered and subsequently reset.

this game looks interersting but i dont know
i either hear its game of the year or its a overrated meme tumblr game

People call it overrated because tumblr loves it, or because someone said it's better than Call of Mlg420out 4 solid 2015 edition or whatever. It's an excellent game that I'd recommend to almost anyone, with a further recommendation that they stop reading about it before they spoil stuff. Seriously, the less you know for a first playthrough, the better.

You team up with an airplane to rip an old man in half, run some errands for a TV star, then reel in what may or may not be a giant fishing line.
