"why expect it of any game? Though I do think he should add additional ending for it"

:P

And, I expected it of *this* game, because this game went out of its way to (seemingly) sell the idea that it's not like other RPGs, that it's about having feelings and having alternate choices. Up until Toriel's house, anyway.

What was unsatisfying about the Toriel fight to me was that it operated on different rules from the rules the game taught you to use. Maybe that was deliberate, but it still takes me right out of the immersion when I'm trying to roleplay within the rules I've been taught, and then the game pulls a fast one by having the rules be different -- suddenly I'm thinking about the ruleset I'm using, rather than pretending to be a character.
