I just realized that in less than two months, it will be Undertale's 10th anniversary, so allow me to remind you that Toby Fox is a talentless fucking hack that does not deserve a fraction of the fame and fortune he received from his meme game.

Seriously, name one other person who went viral on their first try (Undertale was his first video game outside of ROM hacks) while using a program that many of us messed with back in elementary school or middle school.

Not only that but he got to Japan, take over Sakurai's Famistu column, and have his sequel be featured in the Nintendo Switch 2's trailer. I find this all ironic because Toby Fox was previously a ROM hacker, which is usually a big no-no in Nintendo's eyes, but they let this all slide.

And what is special about Undertale, really? The pacifist mechanics? Many JRPGs had pacifist mechanics since the original Phantasy Star. The quirky and memorable characters? I can name a thousand games with just as many "quirky and memorable" characters if not more.

No, the only reason why it ever got popular was because of his friends on the Starmen forums along with Earthbound's popularity becoming mainstream thanks to it being released on the Wii U VC around the same time. If it weren't for that, I highly doubt it would have ever gotten insanely popular.

@Aldo4 @amerika @beardalaxy @ube Rich people receive tax payer money via subsidies.

@lina @Alice @ChristiJunior @Aldo2 It's because Aldo actually got banned. He is still on the fedi, but he is on some MAP instance now. I don't know the specifics, but I think he was sharing photos of minors that were completely legal on their own, but he was sexualizing them and that could be considered CP.

@djsumdog @GrumpyRabbit We have a history book's worth of examples of civil disobedience and other forms of grassroots activism bringing positive change to the word, probably even more than voting has allegedly done. There is nothing blackpilling about telling people the truth about voting.

Everyone tells you that PHP sucks and is a dead language, yet every language they recommend you using instead is always some meme language that will be considered obsolete in five years.

Ruby on Rails, Django, and Spring Framework were all supposed to replace it, yet nobody remembers them.
