Misleading bit in the 'Reception' section.

This whole bit is misleading in my opinion.

"...leading to a brief controversy involving popular YouTuber MatPat potentially causing confusion with Undertale."

The issue wasn't that people were confusing the game with Undertale, it was that the streams hashtags, 75% of the which led to Undertale, Deltarune, or a Toby Fox created game, didn't include a link to the Heartbound and misspelled Pirate Software. Which lead some people to think that Heartbound had been created by Toby Fox.

In other words it wasn't Heartbounds superficial similarities to Undertale that cause the 'confusion', it was GTLive, the YouTube channel that streamed the game that caused the confusion.

This entire section should be removed or at the least reworded to make the nature of the 'controversy' more clear. Brian.Quillen (talk) 08:08, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
