At first a friend recommended it to me. I checked the Steam page on it, but the small tidbit I was shown didn't really entice me. I kept it in the back of my mind, but didn't really think on it.

After some time Ross and Barry from Steam Train started playing the game. I ignored it for a week or so, but then I decided to watch the first episode. Seeing the game being played gave me a better idea of what it was about, and it actually looked interesting. The first episode finished with them about to fight Toriel, so I decided to stop watching and play it for myself.

I'd been informed that the game was heavily inspired by Earthbound, which I'd never played, so I decided to play through Earthbound first to get some idea of the background the game was working with. After spending something like a week and a half getting through the game, I was finally ready to get through Undertale. I played through, exploring everything I could think of, did the True Pacifist ending, and did it once or twice more, tackled the Genocide ending, and then just kept playing it over and over again.

And thus ends my tale.
