What's funny to me, is I adore this kind of art style. Simplistic, kinda abstract and ugly. There's just something about it that screams passion project and it gets me immediately interested. Because it tells me, somewhat instinctively, that this wasn't made to be sold. Now, UNDERTALE DID sell, it's still selling, it's sold and is selling a lot! Obviously the game was sold very well in other regards, like the trailer for instance but- I'm definitely very hard in the "it's part of the charm" category. So often all the hyper polished works blend together and look the same, which to me so much of the beauty of art is it unlocks the imagination, and allows you to experiment, and sometimes, leave room for interpretation. Looping right back around into the main subject for your video btw, which I really enjoyed. Like some others said, I love your interpretation of "every copy is personalized" to instead mean that everyone's experience is different! Really clever, and definitely true! ^.^
1:07 it actually is stated in game, if you inentionally avoid every spear undyne throws at you in the battle she and i quote "look, i gave you a spear to block with" so it is confirmed.
@@KeefeSencen1543 I mean "real battle" For genocide makes her look bad. Like hundreds of monsters died and only thing you worry about "real battle" When this kid did 23000 damage per hit?!
Toby Fox definitely made the art-style of the game ugly deliberately for interpretation purposes. When making Papyrus' sprite, he asked somebody else for help (I can't remember who but probably Temmie.) However, he ended up rejecting their design for something along the lines of "Not being ugly enough." 1:06 Also, Undyne giving you a spear during her battle isn't just a fan interpretation. If you fail on her first attack repeatedly, she gets upset and says "Look. I gave you a spear to block the bullets with."
@@Mariko_8 It's all good lol. This game has a lot of hidden details in it, and I'm sure even in 10+ years there will still be new discoveries about it; we can't expect everybody to know and remember everything.
You misremember the story behind the unused Papyrus sprite. What actually happened is that Toby "originally asked Guzusuru to draw some new poses for his date because she's really good at drawing. They looked kind of . . . too good." So he "just drew a ton of terrible looking ones" himself. This is from the Undertale Concept Art Book, and keep in mind that guzusuru isn't temmie under a different username; she was originally a random Tumblr artist who caught the attention of both Toby and Andrew Hussie with her respective talent, which leads to her getting involved in both of their projects: Asgore's spear reveal animation and Homestuck's final animation. Anyway, Toby doesn't "deliberately" make his own style "ugly" for interpretation purposes. He just isn't "great" at art and has acknowledged much himself. He also rejects adding sprites that are too detailed, "too good," since they cause an imbalance to the style of his interest. A fact that went unnoticed: Back in the early demo days, an anon on Tumblr directed to Toby a common complaint about the "unappealing" artstyle of UT, with an attempt to persuade him to change the art direction with some leftover Kickstarter money. In response to this, Toby said: "What’s wrong with the colors and/or sprite clarity? I can’t think of too many places where it’s an issue. Some individual graphics are kind of ugly maybe.I’m going to add more artistic details to the different rooms because they're just very plain and uninteresting right now (and possibly change their layouts to be less boring) but I’m not going to change the style. If people don’t want to play my game because they think it has bad graphics then OK, I will accept that."
Yeah, the OST is definitely one of the most appealing things, at least for me. I hadn't realized it until I've replayed the Undertale after 8 years and appreciated just listening to the music. Cool video btw, nice interpretation of every copy being personalized!
Its been reinterpreted so much that we can't even count the damn au's. I mean there's the classical undertale, then we have underfell, underswap, fluffytale, littletale, glitchtale, underlust, dreamtale, horrortale, dusttale, something new/killertale, outertale, and even universes/places that are used by different au's sometimes, like the anti void, or doodlesphere, and different multiverse types like Empireverse and Leviathantale, or au's that cram specific characters together like the mama cq "au" that crams asylumtale sans along with geno, error, fresh, and ink, all into one group, this community is like a raging forest fire of diversity, there's always something for everyone, and if there isnt, you make it, unless you hate au's and only like undertale, then you kinda just have to ignore the tsunami of random au crap that will flood you if you so much as acknowledge undertale in anyway shape or form.
@@Mariko_8 I wouldn't call all of them cool because most of them ends up being just new copy of sans with different colour of faster blaster and bones (if character is over powered or marty stu in another words gets insane abilities which makes character boring af and make them "omg look how strong I am". I like some sans aus but most of them boring as heck. I like horror sans because horrotale has dumb logic but characters very deep and it interesting to watch.
1:10 i could be wrong but i'm pretty sure there's an easter egg where if you keep letting the bullets hit you she'll say something like "i gave you a spear to block the bullets"
I absolutely love how simplistic the art style is, and am glad it's like that. You can tell that despite that, Toby really put his all into the story and the emotions the game brings you. On the other hand, every time I listen to the orchestra Undertale OST, I think about how absolutely AMAZING an anime-style show would be. It would be best to count it as a separate universe, but it's really sad that it hasn't become a thing. It would bring a whole new set of fans along who never heard of the game, or just never felt like playing it. Maybe after deltarune?.. One can only dream, I suppose.
@@Mariko_8 have you heard of the super mario 64 castle plexus mystery? Where the castle is too small to actually house all the rooms in it? I was referring to that.
It is quite fun looking at the games many interpretations. Its the gift that just keeps giving. As you all, ive always had one take of Undertale in my head. Though each time I see another interpretation of the game. The take in my head grows. Another puzzle piece is placed. Thats why I always get bothered when I see people try an tie down the game with the words canon, accurate, faithful. Youre killing what made it grow. Yes there is a way the story goes. But if you tie down every little detail. That doesnt leave much for the imagination, an interpretation.
Waterfall will be always....my favourite area + soundtrack the vibes are just...... beyond amazing...... maybe it's just me but...... whenever i go there it makes me want to just stand there....and think about my own story........(I also have this idea that Chara guides Frisk how to use the waterfall's piano by putting golden flowers' Petals on the piano's keys , no proof just my imagination since i support Chara narrative's theory) also amazing video
People who judge a game by its art, are the same that dont read books because they dont have pictures. Just wave it off, leave the little monkey be and everything is fine.

why everybody say that the art is ugly
It is actually said undyne gives you a spear in neutral, she gets mad and tells you to use the spear to block if you just don’t block.

I always found that sort of weird, given the Genocide Route.
@@tiarahamlin6351
I headcannon that Frisk just grabs a spear from the air.
@@MilenaMcDonald or maybe uses their own weopen to block attacks?
@@tiarahamlin6351 I think Undyne wants a real battle..or maybe to use the green soul attack she needs to give Frisk the spear

There's also a unused character named doge, she went unused because she was too detailed compared to rest of the canine unit

Undyne does give you a spear I remember, she states it if you intentionnally don't block the attacks.
