you're sounding a bit like Koh right now before he purchased Undertale, dolph. lol did you guys say the same thing when Shovel Knight came out?
It's actually not a bad game - I'm getting the vibe that you don't like the game because it's liked by a majority of people and that majority happens to be a group full of idiots. Every fandom is shit, and if you're gonna judge a game by something like that you might want to reconsider using the Internet.
Actually, if you like Earthbound for its quirkiness, you'll probably love the absolute everloving shit out of Undertale, as the game has that same kind of witty writing and the same kind of dark turn that Earthbound games had. In fact I'd say that it's probably more interesting than Earthbound as the game puts a very unique spin on battles, and has you make some hard choices based on them. If you cleared it like you would Earthbound, the game scolds you for doing so. The fact that you have to strategically play through battles by sparing characters for a "good" ending actually adds a puzzle-game element to battles (albeit a really weak one; each battle becomes challenging as you have to find a creative way to end the battle through nonviolent means without fleeing)
I'd probably check Steam later this month during the Autumn sale or the Holiday sale - but even if it doesn't go on sale, it's only $10. I've been more disappointed spending $40 on Nintendo's recent titles, honestly. :/
Do you just...read headlines and just make assumptions based on them? I hate being an asshole right now, but seeing your last sentence here kinda made you just come off as ignorant :/
Some crazed overly-Christian mother sent a distressed email asking the 700 Club what to do in that situation, as she thinks that maybe the hooded skeleton actually is demonic.
Pat Robertson is pretty much an old fart who's the prime example of a clock being right twice a day, and for sure we can probably agree on the fact that he hasn't played Undertale so he couldn't say "Oh! He's not a bad guy!! Don't worry!!" so
he had literally zero context on what exactly or who the idea behind the character is.
Considering he knows absolutely squat, he actually answered handled the question really well: Try not to force your daughter away from it, and to give her more videogames.
But yeah, it's the soccer mom in question who's saying anything bad - not Pat Robertson, who just did what he could with the shitty no-context sundae he was handed.

Some other websites are like that. To those with an opinion of disgust or pointing out a picture's crossing the line.
*Notices Google news articles regarding Undertale*
Okay, now that's stupid. I don't know who that old fart is, or the show for that matter. But he needs a slap on the back of the head.
"Duh, cartoon skeleton in hoodie on kid's phone is demonic! Better start complaining about it!"
