    I work with teenagers with autism. I have tried so hard to understand Undertale, because they all love it so so much. I even used to stream me playing it so my students could tag along. I want to get it, but I just don’t.

    If anyone can explain me the appeal (better than my students did) I would appreciate it greatly.

      idk, I’ve never played it, only seen some fan-art on youtube. I like it too. I guess that the appeal is that the characters are all (or most) pretty relatable, some are very cute, and that’s enough reason to like them.

      Same. In my experience Ive put the least time into games Ive enjoyed the most. Even sometimes it feels like I have put a lot of time in, yet havent.

      Then I will just dump time into crappy experiences that I think will get better if I keep trying to improve myself or tweak the game.

      I think I was quite lucky with my games but I would love to be able to spend 1/3 of my life on one game, I usually play a single game a lot for max 1 month and then don’t think about it at all for at least 3 months

        For me I focus on like 2 or 3 games over the course of a couple months usually and some games fall out of the rotation and some games have stuck in

        Right now the silly hyperfixation is playing a ton of Skyrim and planetside

          I am on modded minecraft and a few multiplayer games that depend on others being there right now. I mostly get the most out of games with a clear line of progress when playing single player as it stops me from from wandering to where i get lost and bored of the game
