"I have seen The Beginner's Guide which is a game that openly invites interpretation so I'm not really following when you say there's a way to get the meaning of something like that game wrong when the meaning is left intentionally up for interpretation."

Oh no, I'm not claiming people have gotten the Beginner's Guide Wrong. I'm claiming the Beginner's Guide is, in of itself, an example of someone getting the meaning of a game wrong.

Specifically, where Davey adds in meaning to Coda's games that were never there to begin with.

The fans that claim that "nobody is good or evil" is a main theme of Undertale are no better than the in-character version of Davey from that game. They're making the same mistake. Trying to find meaning to something, even where it doesn't exist, or flat-out gets the meaning wrong.
