(I guess this is mostly directed at Kjorteo, but for lack of a relevant post...)
I've been waiting for discussions of the the next Undertale recording session to come up before bringing this up, but really it's probably better said sooner rather than later -- I'm just going to bow out of this one. Hatoful managed to have enough great stuff to counteract most of how miserable it is -- Undertale just undermines everything it goes to the trouble of setting up. There are ways for these ideas to work, but this isn't it, and judging from Radiation's twitter he isn't even INTERESTED in finding them, just in making sure everyone gets the ending he wanted, to hell with the thesis of the other 90% of the demo... I nearly bowed out beforehand, but I agreed to see how it turned out, and it DID turn out better than I expected, but I like the actual game even less and less the more I think about it (and the more I learn about Radiation), and there aren't even enough roles to go around *anyway*, so it's not like I'm leaving you with holes to fill or something. Unless I find out that he's somehow learned a lot about storytelling before the full game comes out, I just don't think this holds anything for me.
