You have to remember Undertale was funded from Kickstarter, and started solely from Toby Fox - he had only worked on a couple Earthbound hacks and such prior to this

he did delay the game about 2 years, so I guess there's no excuse

also the determination thing is actually used as an in-game plot device for SOUL experimentation but yeah, the whole 'determination' thing isn't meant to have a mechanic

I'm not trying to justify Undertale to you - just give you reasons to reconsider.

Mother and such are officially branded Nintendo names - they had a lot of work into them, and although they do sparkle better than Undertale - I feel like Undertale is a make-up in the lack of earthbound-style content we've had over the years

The community was good when it started, like any other. But as more people sweep in, there's a higher variety of people, and it just starts to become a mess of people using shitty memes and spamming it everywhere it shouldn't be, and people completely hating on it because of this fanbase, because of their opinion, or because they just want to. It happens for every community like this.

That's not to say there is an issue here. Toby worked with Homestuck, so he realises how a community influences the game. I think he developed the more-comedy-than-realtalk style because he knew it would draw in a community and the game would stick for longer and all that, - but that's just speculation

this is all just my cup of tea, there'll always be different people liking different things, but I got time to spare in discussing, so, yeah...

You make some good points, and while I still disagree about the perceived quality of Undertale, a lot of it boils down to either the cash-to-fun ratio or subjective opinions on what makes you laugh.

I've completed all of the Mother games, and I feel like it fits quite well

granted, it's more comedy than plot, and the Mother games aren't that great (Mother 3 was my favourite), but I commend it, I really think we need more games like this, that are different and draw in a community.

"It's more comedy than plot" I feel like that's part of my issue with Undertale, like I said before, it's brand of comedy limits it's audience and it keeps hammering down on jokes I thought missed the first time around. It could also do something really interesting with it's whole "determination" save/load ability, but it doesn't anything with it outside of a few minor bits and the neutral end.
While I agree Mother 1 wasn't anything super special, it was still good, definitely not perfect. Mother 2/Earthbound has, so far, been kicking ass right out the starting gate. My one complaint is I can't make text as fast as I could in Mother 1 and even then I'm emulating it and have a fast forward button. I really feel like Undertale can't hold a candle to it if it keeps being as amazing as it has been. I mostly mean on the fronts of art style, humor, gameplay, and tone. The music is totally good enough for a comparison to be made.

I like that Undertale tried something different. I don't feel like it succeeded in anything it tried to do. We do need more games that at least try to be unique or work an interesting angle, but those alone can't excuse a game for lacking in quality gameplay.
It's also pretty great when a game has a good community, dunno how I feel about the Undertale community though. I think it's gotten too popular with people who don't really know anything about videogames and are convinced it's perfect from their lack of experience with the medium and must try to cram their opinion down the throats of others. But I also understand that when you think something is great you just wanna spread the joy. I'm not saying it's bad, and I'm not saying Undertale is bad. I just don't feel it's as good as people make it out to be.

Earthbound is a great game. Wait till you get to Fourside...
