How long until this thing ends?
I'm getting the opposite feeling I get with Gunnerkrigg; every new page makes me sick.
I still want to read it though, which makes no sense.

>>753so uboachan does have a hsg
i dunno though, i like how hussie manages to piss a few hundred thousand people off with his love of calling back jokes and satirical humor from either 30 pages or 3 acts ago.
no really i love it that's one of my favorite parts of homestuck are the very vauge untill-the-last-second joke callbacks.

>>753I'm okay with Hu$$ie not taking it seriously, but it would be nice if the climaxes of events weren't so anticlimactic.
No.789
So, what are the chances that Huss makes Sburb- the logical choice- instead of Homestuck RPG- "I already read this once, why am i reading it again?"
No.790
>>789He's already stated that the game won't focus on the kids and trolls and stuff. They'll be in the game but won't be the focus of the game. So I doubt we'll be seeing any recycled dialog if that's what you're saying.
Pic comes from the Kickstarter page of what he wrote about it

>>813Pretty much. Hell, I'd have quit reading Homestuck around the time Act 6 started but If I did that my super obsessed best friend would shun me.
No.816
you guys
homestuck has always been a huge joke
ever since "retrieve arms" and "zoosmell pooplord"
trickster mode was a nod to fans, not a slap in the face. I can't fathom why people got so upset that hussie had to make contrite blog posts explaining that he isn't actually a fascist or whatever. I always wondered if he'd bring that easter egg in again later, especially after all the act 1-2 callbacks in act 6. why do people harp on race in homestuck so hard, anyway?
you know, a joke, for laughs
No.817
People aren't mad because it was silly. They're mad because it was a stupid move.
Homestuck is reaching it's endpoint. That doesn't mean it needs to be in Shit Gets Real mode, but what is more or less expected is that at the very end the worldbuilding is toned down, while not nonexistant, and the story actually progresses.
We're still readers, and there are still standards. Even if it's not considered Serious. I could go on for hours about how I hate how Hussie executed the comic post-A5A2, but I'll save that for another post (probably my next one), If you don't view the Trickster arc as a cheap asspull to get them to their crypt beds, it can be viewed as poorly executed worldbuilding at the very end of the story that would have fit in at the beginning of A6A2.
Shit doesn't have to get real. Gears just have to actually be in motion. During that arc, they were not. That is the issue.
No.823
>>813I'm way behind, and this kind of makes me not want to catch up. I really liked Homestuck when it was running but I think there's a limit for how much the fanbase should put up with it.
I hate when things play too much off the fandom's perceptions like this. I've seen other works ruined by it. I really don't think Hussie is in a position to be so snobby to the fandom.
No.824
>>823Also I feel like Adventure Time is doing the Homestuck thing lately and it kind of pisses me off.
No.825
>>824Adventure Time started irritating me when they started doing shippy episodes and tryhard ~feelings~ episodes. Not saying I don't like that every once in awhile, but it felt strangely… forced? They were so tedious for me to sit through, so I haven't picked it up in awhile.
On topic- I agree with what
>>817 said about the comic post A5A2. The story telling just doesn't seem as good, and I really wish Hussie would just ignore the part of the fandom that he "pokes fun" at, rather than, well, poke fun at them. Especially if he's going to do it, and then change it at the expected backlash (i.e: changing from "CAUCASIAN" to "PEACHY" in this panel

>>833It's pretty good! I'm new to this whole Microsoft Paint Adventures thing where people supposedly dictate the flow of the story, and I don't even care about giving orders to the guy who draws it, but the way he develops the story is pretty interesting. The comic/"interactive adventure" does not look half bad either.
Too bad the updates are so slow. I guess I could make a thread about Prequel, but what would be the point if people only posted in it like once every 12 months or so, waiting for the plot to develop in some meaningful way? That, and Preq seems to be largely unknown.
