Read the news.

homestuck continues on 4/13
Hiveswap out never, it'll continue being cut back until it's 1 dimensional

But it will.

The better question is: Will Homestuck finally end or will Hussie keep on milking that webcomic with more characters? Now we have (Tavros), (Vriska), (Terezi) and all the other assholes from the GO!timeline.

I think at this point it's clear everyone is sick of it and just want him to get a move on. And also destroy Davekat

Will never, ever, be destroyed. Embrace Hussie's Plan B to get his money back for having a progressive webcomic.

More like destroy any interest by alienating the few people who care and not interesting the people who are interested in that sort of thing because they're busy watching Steven Universe

The newest fanarts show John being surrounded by Terezi, Vriska and Roxy while Davekat and Rosemary are shoved in the diversity corner on the left. Also Terezi's fanon height being increased to make her taller than Karkat.

Even the most thirsty-for-het r/homestuck members don't think JakeJane is endgame. You are deluded as fuck.
>>
>>78865626
Vriska was never sexy. She's not bad looking but her awful personality that rejected and reverted her character development and the deplorable way Hussie has written the story for her after she was killed make her intolerable.
>>
>>78865756
What, you mean you don't enjoy seeing every other bow to her wishes with no resistance so that she can be the leader? For shame!
>>
>>78865855
Vriska coming back to life as the unquestioned leader and true messiah of Homestuck seemed like a fucking setup to a punchline and the story doing something completely different from it that never came because the punchline is actually us for reading this shit.

Okay?
>>
>>78865751
/r/homestuck is actually one of the few dumb places that liked davekat, I really wouldn't take their opinion on anything. We've still got that overhanging prediction and it's not like Jane's stopped wanting to split herself on Jake's blunderbuss
>>
>>78865932
It did. It honestly felt like the first few pages of Summerteen Romance before it was revealed as Karkat's self-insert fanfic.

Literally everything that happened in the new timeline could've happened without Vriska and what's more, it wouldn't have involved Terezi being drained by Vriska's emotional vampirism.
>>
Homestuck will end with no ships, so Hussie can let everyone have their own stupid headcanons of what happens.
>>
>>78865967
Not to mention they've pretty much accepted everything Hussie's thrown at them so far and liked in one way or another.
>>
what would a "romantic" conversation between dave and karkat be like

fanart just makes them generic yaois
>>
>>78865932
Eridan coming back in that role instead of Vriska would have been the most amazing thing Hussie could have done.

Do we know anything about Hussie's sex drive or sexuality in general? We love to say Vriska is his ultimate fantasy because of how he made her the main character and never punished her, and I wouldn't be surprised if he had a serious mind control fetish, but the dude reads like a completely asexual entity.

The fandom shrunk, but it's not dead just yet. At least, the portions at Reddit, Tumblr, MSPAF and MSPARP are still bustling.
>>
>>78868057
I know, I just deeply resent the fact there are so few readable Dirk/Dave fics.
>>
>>
>>78868122
Yeah, I getcha - basically if you're looking for any fics that don't involve the most popular ships, you're nigh shit out of luck. And it takes even more digging to find one that doesn't have out-of-character writing and such.
>>
>>
>>78865756
there's something about a girl that'd step on your dick that's sexy
>>
>>78868402
Man, even the popular pairings are fucking unreadable at this point. The only ship that seems to be growing instead of dying on ao3 is Davekat.
>>
>>78868664
What a horrible way to die
Guess all the Johnkat people jumped ship
>>
>>78868664
Well of course - since Rose/Kanaya has been stagnating for a while now, Dave/Karkat is there to take over its legacy of pouring a bunch of generic fluff and hurt/comfort fics onto AO3.

I don't expect this to last for long when the comic resumes, however.
>>
>>78868955
I hope Hussie will try and recreate the asspain that occurred from the end of Naruto

>>78868985
Hell, I've been betting that Rose/Kanaya is going to be sunk for a while now, if that and Dave/Karkat gets BTFO at the same time I will laugh and laugh.

You are not everyone in these threads, anon. And I didn't say they'll break up for no reason, but rather something will come up between them because as it is, their happy-go-lucky relationship is out of place.
>>

>but rather something will come up between them because as it is, their happy-go-lucky relationship is out of place
There is nothing to come up. Yes they are happy but breaking them up because they are happy is even dumber than wonk was. You are dumber than wonk and bkew combined
>>
>>78864549
In a nutshell: it starts off OK and quickly becomes one of the most innovative, cleverly executed webcomics on the internet. Then the bad decisions start piling up until you can't ignore them.
The story is unfinished, and worse, on hiatus. This makes everything harder to stomach, because there's a small glimmer of hope that quality will improve again, if only we can stick around during half a year's worth of silent hiatus.

There are a few kinds of response to this, from what I've seen:
-Stop caring about the comic entirely, likely move on to something else (like many have done with Undertale or SU)
-Remain a fan and be somewhat excited for the end of hiatus (requires endless optimism, trust in Hussie and/or low standards)
-Shrug it off, because you like the comic, but aren't so attached to it that it starts to affect you emotionally.
-Remain a "fan", anally devastated by the direction the story has been taking, waiting in anguish for the comic to be over so you can finally move on with your life (and, maybe, if you're lucky, be satisfied with the ending)

>>78872360
Cans and Stitch are pretty neat.
>>
>>78872591
You're awfully mad about the suggestion of a ship sinking in a comic where ships sinking happen fairly often.
Alao Meenah and Vriska had a happy relationship that broke up pretty quickly, it's not implausible.
>>
>Meenah kills LE, BTFO everyone else and takes Karkat as her sex partner.
>Karkat does awesome shit in the final battle.
>Terezi dies.
>Rose dies suckling on Karkats COCK in front of Kanaya.
>Kanaya turns into a fetishistic mother for Karkat.
>Humans go away reeee
>Trolls enslave humans anyways.
>Meenah rightfully rules the universe with a sissified Karkat at her side.
>Porrim secretly acts like a mommy towards Meenah.
If this isn't the end of HD I'm shooting up a comic con.
>>
>>78866031
Remember when we were all reading the update, and everything seemed off? How we thought the characters spoke weirdly or were outright OOC, or how we believed Vriskagram and what followed was some kind of psycheout timeline or Vriska's own fanfic? It HAD to be some kind of trick, right? Hussie, with his -incredible- writing skills, wouldn't have dared pull off this kind of thing, right? Right??

Haha. Good times.

They only got together because they were all alone and there was an age difference. Rose and kanaya got together and didn't even break up when rose was drunk their whole relationship. If that wasn't enough to break them up in a time line where they are much closer and happier nothing will

From a scale to 1 to 10, where 1 is "minor inconvenience" and 10 "session-wide disaster", how horribly is the creation of GCATavrosprite going to backfire?
>>
>>78873239
And you really think a relationship between a main character and a primary secondary character is just going to stay in the background and be relatively shallow, just like that?
>>
>>78873354
*On a scale. (I can't seem to English tonight.)
(I'd personally bet on something like 4, with it being a slight problem that is eventually easily resolved.)

>And you really think a relationship between a main character and a primary secondary character is just going to stay in the background and be relatively shallow, just like that?
Yes? We don't need to go in depth on how happy they are together now. They are together and going strong it doesn't need to be a focus
>>
>>78873638
So why have them in a relationship in the first place if it'll ultimately not factor much in their characters?

Reminder that Caliborn's OC will become real.
Davepeta is the coat and green wings,GCATavros is the electricity, Nannasprite is the scar, Slick is the hands and staff. Mix it all together with LE's soul and the final boss is formed.

The aspects are fundamentally based in vague symbolism. Any of them can do anything if the bearer is creative enough to make the metaphor work.
>>
>>78883637
This is pretty much correct. Light, for instance, can be taken as some abstract idea of 'victory' or 'fortune', but a good Light player, if interpreting the aspect literally, can manipulate physical light.

>Any of them can do anything if the bearer is creative enough to make the metaphor work.
That's actually a really nice way of putting it. Still just an excuse for Hussie's wasting of lore potential, but a nice way of putting it.

Breath, along with light, are supposed to represent the metaphysical, religious concepts of creation and such (the pneuma, "let there be light"), so breath is supposed to be like accumulating spiritual power and applying it to oneself and others. Or something like that.
>>
>>78884012
No, but a large amount of his audience (i.e. the place that shall not be named) loves the trash to death. He's trying to juggle writing the trash to please them in a way so that he can still crawl back to the original fans and try to say "Hey! Th-this is just meta h-humor! It's ir-ronic and you can tell I'm just f-fucking with you!"

Hussie wants it to END by then. Not start updates.

It's a scene from the latest Steven Universe episode.

Yes exactly. That date could be between tomorrow or 4/12
>>
>>78886949
UPDATE CONFIRMED FOR TOMORROW
>>
>>78886949
I recall him saying that he was done with regular content, and there would be only some brief buildup before the final flashes, and he wanted to release it all roughly at once.

But he also said this about the content before this damn pause started, so who knows. I seriously doubt he'll post anything before 4/13 even gets close to rolling around.
>>
Someone post some freedoms. I want to start a folder.
>>
>>78886998
He's not done with regular content.

>This doesn't mean you're seeing all that will happen before the endstuff. After the pause there'll be another stretch of pages more in the vein of escalating material, which I think is better to post closer to the animation that follows it, rather than now and get everybody hype for a whole lot of waiting.

Also it's more likely he'll stagger the updates lest he wants the servers to crash like last time.

Man. I've brought up that idea in the past on the forums, but it never picked up any support. People there just preferred more rigid, uniform ideas.

Alright. So I've had so much shit spoiled for me, thankfully my memory is like a damned sieve and I remember jack shit of the spoilers other than John being a corpse at some point in the future, had to happen.

But I'm up to the end of Act 3 and I'm so fucking lost already. Like, everyone is on Sburb now and the Trolls are getting introduced and I'm giggling my arse off at Dave trolling the troll with homo-sexuality jokes, and Jade is SENDING SHIT BACK IN TIME IN COLLABORATION WITH MYSTIC POWERS to John to SEND TO HERSELF, so you might imagine it's all a tad wee bitty confusing for lil' ol' me.

THE FUCK, JADE. STOP THAT. EVERYTHING WAS SOMEWHAT UNDERSTANDABLE UNTIL YOU HAD YOUR DREAM SEQUENCE. HOW DID JOHN GET THERE? WHY IS YOUR DOG MAGICAL? WHAT'S ALL THIS TRANSPORTIFY AND SEER-LIKE SHIT? WHY IS THE NANA-SPRITE WRITING A MESSAGE NOW SHE ALREADY WROTE IN THE PAST?

>>78889410
No, but it has that strange quality where people consistently come back to it after they lose interest in their new game. Undertale works a bit too much on topical humor styles, and although it doesn't really have memes in it like some say, it has a style of humor which most likely will not age well. OFF, on the other hand, is vague in both its story and humor. It doesn't really rely on anything new to make it work. While less funny in the moment, it tends to last a bit longer than something like Undertale.

Actually most of the blogs are still around, and plenty are preserved. They usually delete and remake them like three times a year because attention whores are attention whores. There's some taken down videos floating about too, good stuff.

I was wondering, is Undertale "one of the better legacies of Homestuck" as AH said in the Hiveswap update, or is he jumping on the hype train?
>>
>>78895183
he's trying to take some small credit for something good that someone else made
>>
>>78895183
He's not. Undertale's great. Play it completely blind and don't let the fanbase ruin it for you.
>>
>>78895183
Nah. Hussie is just salty about Undertale.
>>
>trans people who like dave and karkat are mentally unstable
>trans people who like nepeta are bros/sis youd hang out
>this situation is reversed to "cis" fanartists
What does it mean
>>
>>78895183
Undertale is really that good, play it as soon as you can, preferably blind.

>>78895214
>>78895344
Or Hussie is acknowledging a game and its popularity made by a close friend of his.
>>
>Or Hussie is acknowledging a game and its popularity made by a close friend of his.
he could have acknowledged the game without phrasing it as if he'd had any part of it
>>
>>78895447
Given how much Toby looks up to Hussie as a mentor figure he probably did had a part.
>>
>>78895357
unstable people project their feelings hard on characters
stable people see them as they really are
>>
>>78894118
the last few things weren't syndicated television shows
>>
>>78895224
I played it (and it's really great), Also I agree that it should be played with the less previous knowledge possible.

I was just wondering whether Hussie was taking "undue" credit or Homestuck was somehow important in Undertale creation
>>
>>78895556
The first. Undertale might not have existed without him, but it was without conscious intention on his part.
>>
>>78895506
that's not how having a part works
people who are idolized by other people don't then call that persons work a 'legacy' of anything
>>
>>78889144
it's more than that. He uses fire as time portals.

set the felt mansion on fire and he'll probably fuck you up from any point in history
>>
>>78895630
And he probably has the advantage of being one of the few Felt members who isn't a complete idiot.
>>
>>78895588
As a spiritual successor of sorts to MSPA and with the similar sort of humor, calling it part of a legacy is not that implausible.

>>78895556
He took the adequate amount of credit he had, he didn't claim he worked alongside Toby or anything.
>>
>>78895682
the adequate amount of credit to take would be zero credit, because he didn't fucking work on it
>>
>>78895705
Claiming of the game being part of the legacy is the minimal amount of credit to take with claiming that he actually worked on the game along Toby.

Why is this being argued on anyways? It's not like Toby objected to Hussie's wording or anything.
>>
HS fans fucking ruined this by giving Hussie so much money to develop a game instead of finishing the story.
>>
>>78895224
>play it blind
Impossible
>don't let fan base ruin it
Nearly impossible
>>
>>78895874
I played it blind, but I was lucky to beat it one day after release day

> It's not like Toby objected to Hussie's wording or anything.
what does that even have to do with it
>>
>>78895902
Then why the fuck are you being so adamant about something this minuscule?
>>
>>78895943
do you just think defending toby is the only reason people wouldn't agree with hussies phrasing
>>
>>78896028
Toby and Hussie are close friends, Toby worked on and is still working on a good deal of Homestuck, Undertale was made in much of the similar spirit as Homestuck, and Hussie was happy about Undertale's success and called it part of a legacy. If anything Toby was probably elevated by Hussie saying that.

There's no big reason to lose your shit about this unless you're just being a contrarian turbo autist.
>>

literally some shit you just guessed
>>
>>78896387
And again, if it's not about Toby, it's just petty spiting towards Hussie.

>literally some shit you just guessed
He said he was working on Hiveswap and it's more than likely he's assisting Hussie on the final Flashes.
>>
I have a question:

In Openbound, Gamzee asks Rose to promise not to tell Karkat that he's dating Terezi, because "that might be what pushes him over the edge to finally kill me".

But if he's invincible and could easily kill or non-lethally defeat Karkat in any situation, given how overpowered Gamzee is and how underpowered Karkat is, why would Gamzee have any reason to be afraid of Karkat wanting to kill him?
>>
>>78896466
>he said he was working on hiveswap
that's not homestuck
>more than likely
aaand it's some shit you just guessed
>>
>>78896550
Is there any reason to doubt that Toby's not helping?
>>
>>78885360

That's aliased text, the text in the image is anti-aliased.
>>
>>78896618
idk the fact that he's fucking busy and might not have time to make homestuck songs in between hiveswap songs and bugfixing/supporting his own game
>>
>>78895874

>Impossible

What's so hard about just buying Undertale and then playing it? Are you actually so autistic that you watch let's plays of games before playing them or something?
>>
>>78896721
reread his post you dumb cunt
>>
>>78896497
because he was purposely feeding rose bullshit to make himself seem less dangerous, and she was probably a dumb enough cunt to buy it.

>karkat
>killing anyone to begin with, let alone gamzee
>>
>>78896646
Him doing other things doesn't equate to him not doing anything at all for the final Flashes. I doubt he's not going to do something for the finale of the comic he had a major role with for five or so years.

Undertale exists 100% because of Homestuck. You are a fucking retard if you think Hussie doesn't deserve credit.

In case you're not aware, Undertale got funded on Kickstarted by Homestuck fans. It wouldn't have gotten a tenth of what it did without Hussie siccing his fanbase on it. And then Toby developed the game in Hussie's own basement. You can be damn near sure Hussie had significant input on the development too, considering how closely they worked and lived.

I browse /v/ every day, follow half a dozen gaming websites, and bought Undertale a month after it came out, completely unspoiled. The only thing I knew was "there's several skeleton characters people seem to love". Which turned out to be just two.

Are you gfamiliar with Hussie's work. Pissing off the fanbase has always been his stitch. It's like one of his main tricks.

the Master move there, is that if he break it, or confirm it, he will manage to piss of a part of the fanbase anyway. It's a win win for him.

Seeing the reaction of Karkat when John implied that ship existed, I'd say it doesn't exist. (people tend to ignore that moment when they complain about how this ship is confirmed)

they are moiral and Karkat hate the idea of moiral turning into full red relationship. It's one of the worst kind of romance story.

Nah, Dave never talked about his inner feelings with Karkat until he met Dirk.

>>78919486

We saw John looking flushed when he hate-flirted with Terezi. Karkat must be pretty good for hiding his flushed feelings.

Also it wouldn't surprise me that Terezi or Roxy become John's endgame ship. One is John wearing a blackrom shirt and this is some bullshit symbolism about his endgame ship. (Same with Dave and his heart shirt) The other one is Roxy being the con air protag wife back then from the ectobabby flash.

Karkat is not in the hate Quadrant with Terezi.

I mean, the comic itself establish that Trolls usually seek to fill all of their quadrant. Why Terezi hvaing a black rom would phase out Karkat?

Hussie never feared that and he don't take his old work with more disdain than ever.

All his creation have always made fun and toyed with many political views.

I don't know why people are convinced Hussie is "ruined", when all he did was giving jab the same way he usually does.

>>
>>78921445
I won't deny he was correct in that assessment, at least for that Vriska, (Vriska) backslid a lot handing out with Aranea

I'm sorta hoping that Vriska kept some of her character development due to not being dead and stewing in her own failure/getting caught in a feedback loop with Aranea magnifying each other's flaws

I LIKE redemption stories, and was really pissy (Vriska)'s mindset seemed to have backslid in parts

>>78921468
That I also dislike

>>78921485
While I mostly agree, looking back I do understand his logic of bringing her back.
Given the nature of the dream bubbles and how the living and the dead can interact, it's unlikely that someone like Vriska wouldn't try to pull SOMETHING to make herself relevant/get out, but the mix of unseen character development and her falling back into old habits had me salty

Hopefully being on the meteor made some of Vriska's character development stick, unlike (Vriska)'s

It is when you spend a lot of time writing for it and don't replace it with something that people find appealing.

Most of the story took place over the course of a single day, a lot of it can be blown off as pointless and silly, but that doesn't really matter much from a reader's perspective, because that's what we see as important.

What >>78921607 said.
>>
>>78921565
Honestly? While I do like the idea of JohnVris, I do see how it could have been nothing more than a silly little crush. The thing that has me mad about "bad writing" is more cause it felt like Vriska was starting to go on the road to be a somewhat better person and then got cut down
But wait! turns out she's coming back!
And turns out in the mean time she's been caught up with someone who's flaws complement her own and all those hints about her wanting to not be a monster like she is are out the window


I didn't like JohnVris for the romance, I liked it for the potential redemption plotline.
John/Vriska friendship would have worked just as well in my opinion and I was sorta hoping that's where it was going at times
>>
>>78921663
Agreed. And Hussie could've still made it work after everything that happened, but then he went out of his way to make John hate her for some reason. I just don't understand.
>>
>>78921651
But it si also good writing. And what >>78921607
say is simply explaining the reason of the fan expectation and hope for JohnVris. Them breaking up wasn't bad writing and quite on the contrary fitted perfectly with the evolution of the story.

People seems to forget that Vrisak Wooshed for John but John was always a maybe feeling fro it. when confronted wth it, he basically said he didn't mind.

As for Vriska, it was basically a rebound after giving up on Tavros and realizing how much of a disappointment he was.

The fact of the matter is Vriska and John ate least version close enough to the main timeline actually ended up dating and guess what? they broke up probably after realising it was nothing else but a crush, which is exactly how it was written.
>>
>>78921663
>And turns out in the mean time she's been caught up with someone who's flaws complement her own and all those hints about her wanting to not be a monster like she is are out the window
They are more than out of the window, Vriska actually schooled the Vriska who waned to reform and called her out for being that pathetic and it was fucking amazing.

the thing is. That's the whole pint of Moiral, keeping someone in check of its own bad habit in exchange of protection.

Current main Viska was kept in line by Terezi. But that doesn't mean enabling them. As a matter of fact . tereai relized that she needed to know more about herself.
>>
>>78921694
>but then he went out of his way to make John hate her
Not what happened. John doesn't hate Vriska. He just realized he wasn't really into her and was turned of by her pragmatical methods.

>>78921703
The reader sees a set of characters interacting and growing, and then we're told it didn't work out off screen.

Is that potentially "realistic"? Sure. I'm sure there are plenty of fictional stories that have two characters getting together, but if you look at them 10 years down the line, they're divorced and the guy only sees the kids on weekends.

That doesn't make for something satisfying, though, and most people aren't satisfied with the state of the story or the way the characters are going.

Also, are you tired? Or drunk? Cause your post is a little weird.
>>
>>78921795
And you know, okay, I'm sure you can pull a "well don't expect the obvious from Hussie", or whatever, but at some point the "twists", and "anticlimaxes", and all that sort of stuff just kind of builds up into indifference.

I'm not just going on about shipping here, when you tell me the stuff I read or got invested in really wasn't that important, I just start to stop caring.
>>
>>78921703
>But it si also good writing
Just want to point this out
Realistic writing isn't necessarily compelling writing, and compelling writing isn't necessarily realistic writing
Ideally good writing should be contain both neither on it's own is necessarily good writing

And as >>78921795 pointed out, while what happened was realistic, it largely nullified the parts that were compelling about John and Vriska interacting, namely how interacting with John was causing Vriska to regret and analyse her decisions


>>78921785
Before the whole retcon thing there was a small scene on the ship with John and Jade talking, John mentioned he thinks he "kinda hated her" when the subject of Vriska was brought up

Which I did find a bit odd, as he seemed fairly neutral when they parted
>>
>>78921795
>and most people aren't satisfied with the state of the story or the way the characters are going.
The story is doing good, the complain mostly come from the hiatus.

>The reader sees a set of characters interacting and growing, and then we're told it didn't work out off screen
But we are also show why it didn't work, by proxy with the current Vriska and John interacting. Their love story was set to fail from the start and the the story didn't try to hide that fact.

The development that emerged out of John and Vriska's interactions remained and had an impact on the story and this what matter.

And all it costed was the broken heart of some shippers.

The fact that the characters evolve and can take directions that weren't expected yet still make sense in the context of the story is what make it good writing.

Also, I am not an English speaker, which might explain why it seems to you I am speaking weirdly.

>But we are also show why it didn't work, by proxy with the current Vriska and John interacting

I think part of the problem stems from the direction those characters took after they stopped interacting for a while. During the time skip, and during Act 6. You see it all the time, folks not super impressed with the direction of the narrative in the past few years.
>>
>>78921854
I'm in this camp. Sure, I can blame Hussie for bad writing, or I can blame myself for getting wrapped up in the wrong things, but at the end of the day, I'm still just terribly disillusioned about what I thought was at one point the best story I'd ever read. Shits depressing whichever way you slice it.

I know, but I am saying that the writing in homestuck IS good and compelling.

Except it didn't.

All the growth they got out of interacting remained. I mean. Vriska broke back Tavros to life precisely because she knew she had done bad to him. Later on she was even faced with the fact she had been wrong about him.

And it was a convo between John and Roxy and it wasn't really retconned. And it was After John had seen Vriska manipulating Ghosts to get them killed. It's a relatively normal reaction.

that story is setin a fantasy setting deosn't mean the relationship are not allowed to be realist. Look at Archer. It' s a silly humor spy series, yet the relationship between characters, even if played for humor purpose, are quite realistic.

>You can't just pass off complaints as needless whining.
In the case of homestuck, it's mostly the case. I see people complaining and complaining during hiatus just to rejoice everytime there is an update, liking it, then going back to complaining about how bad HS has turned.

Well you know, pal, I'm glad you enjoy the story. More power to you. I read something that was longer than the bible, and I ended up pretty bitter about its state in the end, so if you're happy with it, rock on.

But don't mistake happiness at the idea of the story moving forward after an extended period of time, as people only bitching because they don't have more of what they want. Sometimes it comes down more to a feeling of "Christ, finally we can get this shit show on the road again".

I saw a post recently from someone who was rereading, and when they got to the Karezi <3 moment, they felt sad because they knew exactly what was behind the secret link. Some of that original experience is ruined.

It's almost reminiscent of the Star Wars special edition nonsense albeit a bit more meta.
>>
>>78922279
Oneof the main shtick of Homestuck is about meta humor and how dead characters can be brought back to life and retcon is one of the know way and this is how Homestuck approach it.

The thing about the retcon is, you might thing it nullify prvious events, wherea,when you actually pay close attention to it, you actually realize that most of the major event pre-retcon still have an impacts. Most of the surviving characters are still around, and Terezi herself now have memory of it.

That was Vriska that did that, not (Vriska).
Vriska was saved by RetconJohn, (Vriska) got dead and became a horrible person because Aranea.
I'm arguing that (Vriska)'s character development was unsatisfying due to how it was handled even if how she backslid after getting caught up with someone like Aranea was "realistic", it just wasn't too satisfying narrativewise
Vriska popping up was a very recent occurrence and some of her character development seems to be sticking, which I'm rather hopeful about, though I could just be reading into it.

Here is a shocker for you: A psychokiller isn't a relationship.

Also, you kind of miss the point. First most of the relationship in Homestuck, if not all, are mostly used for comedic effect and silly antic. Second, you are trying to impose a sort of rule that say "if a story is mostly silly, than realism is forbidden". Is something is realist, then it's ALLOWED in a story. It's not a "Either it's completely surreal, or totally realist" a mix of two is allowed. Some relationship can be silly while other can be more serious. and even a same relationship can have some silly aspect and some realistic element too.

All in all, the whole point is, nothing in the story contradict how John and Vriska's realtionship evolved. It fit the tone and it fit the context. the only reason to complain is if you really wanted this ship to be endgame and that's it.

>d I ended up pretty bitter about its state in the end, so if you're happy with it, rock on.
What are you bitter about though. that story didn't make happens what you wanted doesn't make it a bad story.

I can see events that I can understand some fans didn't want to see (I personally would have like Jake and Jane getting together), but I can't see a single point where the story was actually bad.

If you paid closer attention, you'd realize that events pre-retcon still matters.

All the charactersthat didn't die are still around in the post retcon world and the one who died are still there in the dreambubbles.

Also, Only Act6 and a very small part of Act5 (one event to be precise) was retconned, though.

>and when they got to the Karezi <3 moment, they felt sad because they knew exactly what was behind the secret link. Some of that original experience is ruined.

>My problem is we DIDN'T see it, we saw them meeting then much later on got told it didn't work
We also saw a long interraction between the current John and then-current Vriska and saw how it didn't work out; it easy to see Ghost-John and Vriska relationship went more or less the same way.
>That was Vriska that did that, not (Vriska).
Both, from my point of view, have taken an interresting direction. The most intressting aspect about (Vriska) is that she basically the most of herself, sacrficing countless ghost for her goal to be relevant again, only to realise that her effort paid-off (it the house power she found that allowed John to have retcon power that brought her back to life) only to realize that it's a different version of her that would benefit from her efforts, and that would then shove it into her face. In the meantime, (Vriska) had realized how much of a try hard she was and tired to cool down, only to see that reforming his costing her again the new things that mattered to her (aka meenah).

She had to sacrifice her won relevance to manage to be relevant again and the cost is bitting her hard. But I think (vriska)'arc is far from over. We have only saw her at er lowest now to see if she can raise back again.

>Here is a shocker for you: A psychokiller isn't a relationship.

Okay, listen here Satan, Gamzee was defined in that very scene as being Karkat's Moirail, so that right off the bat is a relationship.

And what's more, relationships aren't inherently defined by who you want to stick your dick in. I have a relationship with my friends, my neighbors, if they act like cunts, or I act like a cunt, someone will probably point out that cunty behavior.

So you know, here we've got a guy who literally killed dudes, and it's played off as a gag.

You know, I can accept that though, if that's the mindset you want to go with a narrative, but it says a whole fucking lot when you pass off narrative drama as a gag, and focus on soap opera styled bullshit relationship drama, and need to deem that "realistic".

In terms of writing, you need to create a mode and tone, and that's why shit like the stuff where Gamzee there left a lot of people feeling off, because it didn't jive with the tone of what was there previously.

Picking and choosing your narrative style to fit how you want to rush through that part of the story, is just sloppy.

I like though how you just are ignoring my points, and just say I'm a shipper, or a whiner. I'm not sure what your native language is, man, but I'm pretty sure that's kinda bull wherever you're from.

>So you know, here we've got a guy who literally killed dudes, and it's played off as a gag.
Not exactly. What is played out as a gag is the big "Karkat-Gamzee confrontation". It was build up to be a final stand, only to trun out to be a silly "calm the fuck down, dude". this what is silly. Gamzee's murderous rampage on the other handdoesn't result sollely in silly relationship. Quite on the cotnrary, it resolve in the complete meltdown of Terezi.

this is my point: a relationship can have both silly and more serious aspects and impacts. Your mistake is to think that one nullify the other.

An other mistake I think you are doing is that you think that Gamzee is being "forgiven" because "lol, it's just more murder, everything is forgiven, now let's all be friend again". This was never the case, It's mostly Karkat who wanted him to remain alive, because, as a moiral, it was his responsability. He also thought there was enough murder as there was and more death wasn't the solution. finally, the Trol Race is almost extinct, killing more now only condamne more the species.

It means in no way Gamzee was washed of his sins because "lol humor", but mostly due to pragmatism and Karkat's own feeling. But nothing is forgiven and Kanaya make that clear.

>Picking and choosing your narrative style to fit how you want to rush through that part of the story, is just sloppy.
I'll add that it's not picking and choosing, but meshing the tow together, and HS is great at that. I hope I have actually adressed your points there >>78923032
Nothing is really sloppy about Gamzee. If the story had just remained to a "everything is forgiven now, because the murders were just silly antics" you would actually have a point. But that isn't the case.

It is good writting, precisely because Gamzee's action, weren't sweeped under a rock and kept having consequences on the realtionships between characters.

Now you tell me how Gamzee's handling mean Hussie wasn't allowed to handle Johnvris the way he did, because I still fail to see the connection, there.

>If you paid closer attention, you'd realize that events pre-retcon still matters.
Yes, it some roundabout way how they caused the retcon to happen in the first place. But other than that, what does matter?

>All the charactersthat didn't die are still around in the post retcon world and the one who died are still there in the dreambubbles.
Let me just pile on another dispute I have with Homestuck's writing. This I haven't complained about much because I know it's just me, and I don't really hold it against Hussie. But having multiple versions of characters just trivializes a lot of things for me. I'd rather have one of every character to follow, root for, ship, or whatever. To see the characters we followed around for literally 4.5 years become basically irrelevant, is just another "fuck you" to things I was invested in. And yes, they are irrelevant at this point except maybe Terezi's memories. That might change in a coming update, but right now, it's not looking good.

>Also, Only Act6 and a very small part of Act5 (one event to be precise) was retconned, though.
>Only
That's half the fucking comic and 4.5 years from our perspective. For me personally, that's almost entirely ALL of the time I've been a fan. (I caught up on the Gam<>Kar update.)

>Except...not?
Good argument. Yes, those moments still happened, but the disappointment was in knowing that was as far as that relationship was now going to go. Back when I first read those pages, I was excited to see them work through their differences and problems and grow.

Instead, we got a retcon where their "growth" was simply not having to deal with the drama in the first place. That's not interesting. (Yes, Terezi now remembers the problems, and yes this is my being a shippy fuck, but is this really so hard to understand?)
>>
>>78922879
>We also saw a long interraction between the current John and then-current Vriska and saw how it didn't work out;
Eh, not really? We saw them interact, but John seemed fairly neutral to friendly with Vriska despite Vriska's crush, I do agree that that wasn't really a strong basis for a relationship, but that's not really what I'm arguing for. My personal feelings on JohnVriska pairings or friendship isn't what I'm arguing, what time arguing is that the character development that came after it, for (Vriska) at least, was handled extremely poorly given how he affected her.

>Both, from my point of view, have taken an interresting direction
I don't disagree with this, I'm largely saying that in terms (Vriska)'s character development from stage A -> B -> C, the transition from A -> B feels mishandled from a narrative perspective. I'm not saying it couldn't happen, just that telling us MUCH later after the fact that she's taken what's largely a 180 from her previous character arc was bad

I am interested where he's going with (Vriska) and expecting her to do something to try and get back at Vriska and probably fuck up someone's plan in the process

Nah dude, I remember from like, 20fucking11 when Hussie went on a rant on his Formspring (is that even a thing anymore?) about how the entirety of the bit with Gamzee was a gag. Shit like the flash with the ominous music with honking forms, that was part of the joke.

He was really passive-aggressive about people bitching about him about that plotline.

And again, man, it's about mood and tone. That was an instance where it just didn't jive with a lot of readers. When the author himself starts mocking his base for it, then I think he probably brought his intent across badly. That scene itself was one of the first and bigger examples of Hussie's growing love of anticlimaxes. Set up a fight, but nah.

>>78923119
>I'll add that it's not picking and choosing, but meshing the tow together, and HS is great at that

I would agree with that to an extent, but unlike you apparently, I don't think Hussie is infallible,

I brought up the Gamzee bit as an example of the story, and the author, harping on about how it's a comedy, and I guess my criticisms more comes down to the idea that we need to play this relationship drama out "realistically", when we have bullshit like that going down.

I mean it's pretty absurd. Something's wrong with the idea of characters only knowing each other for a short time and getting together, but it's totally cool to try and talk a murderer down and let him get off free?
>>
>>78923164
>But other than that, what does matter?
The other Nanna Sprite Jaspereroseprite, Davepetasprite.
On the Dreambubble side, Tavros from the pre-retcon is now more relevant than ever and there is still (Vriska) that might have a role to play.

>but the disappointment was in knowing that was as far as that relationship was now going to go.
Except not. Since the last update, Terezi remember eveything and some more. She remember and live though every other Terezi that have died so for. Terezi is now basically a singularity. it kind of resolve your other issue, there.

Also note that even before remembering, the event are still mostly the same, with only the thing showed ore directly inferrable from the slidhsow being deifferent. Meaning that the meet up with the dancesestor and the talk with Karkat during the thir meenahquest still happened, unless we are proven otherwize. what didn't happens was Terezi being fucked by Gamzee and going on a Faygo Craze, and Karkat giving her an intervention and Terezi seeing Karkat getting killed by Gamzee (except now she remember).

It was on his Formspring account, a website that would let him answer questions to fans, kinda like ask.fm.

I thought quite on the contrary that the mixing of a psycho Clown killer with his killing antic was a perfect mesh of dark humor and serious tone.

i think the hussie's reply you are talking about is precisely about people complaining that Karkat and Gamzee didn't get a big showdown, that was the part that was played for humor and it was done right.

>That scene itself was one of the first and bigger examples of Hussie's growing love of anticlimaxes. Set up a fight, but nah.

All his formspring answers are still archived if you can look for it.

>I thought quite on the contrary that the mixing of a psycho Clown killer with his killing antic was a perfect mesh of dark humor and serious tone.

I am well aware at this point that you love everything about the story.

>i think the hussie's reply you are talking about is precisely about people complaining that Karkat and Gamzee didn't get a big showdown, that was the part that was played for humor and it was done right.

It was complaining about how Gamzee was seemingly allowed to just get away with it, with none of the characters even really reacting in a natural way to the fact that their friends were killed, and the murderer was right there.

>Are you kidding? HS has been doing that all along. Since its start, HS has treated silly moment seriously and important key point moment with an humorous finish point. This was nothing new.

That was during a large set during the second part of Act 5 where Hussie set up a series of big fights that all conveniently were dodged avoided, so he didn't have to task himself with animating anything too fancy.

>>78923511

>>78923618

>>
>>78923583
Oh? I thought you meant A-B was Vriska setting a pirate ships and killing counteless ghost, to Vriska being Meenah's lawnmower.

But basically, between "Vriska's last talk with John and heading off to get stabed in the back" to "Vriska hooking up with Araena and starting the army of mind controlled ghosts sent to their doom" there sin't much of a difference. Let's not forget that before she die, she was ready to go kill Bec Noir just to be the hero, despite being told she would cause the death of other. That is the Vriska we are talking about and there isn't much difference between her then and her sailing the pirate ship. She died, got fused with Tavros then decided she wanted the center of show again, setting a ship to find a weapon to kill the big bad to be the hero again.

Let's not forget how she was in Act 5 Act 1, where she basically threw a Tantrum when her attempt to make up for Aradia didn't turn out exactly the way she wanted. Vriska has been long looking for redemption, but she has always wanted it to be on her own term.
>>
>>78923717
Eh, point about wanting redemption on her terms, though I still find (Vriska) being fine with killing many many copies of her "friends" at odds with her character development interacting with John, even in the never was timeline where she did fight Jack the others dying pissed her off
>>
>>78923360
Yes, Tavros. I agree with that. But Nannasprite? Did I miss something?

>Jaspereroseprite and Davepetasprite
Abominations further ruining the integrity of their parts.

>Except not.
Dude. I'm talking about a specific person's emotional response to something in the part you quoted. That's a perfectly reasonable response to what happened.

Are they the same? Then what was the point of the retcon in the first place? To fix everything by having Vriska save the day? Terezi aside, it's not character development to simply erase the issues they had or prevent them from happening.

And I see all the post-retcon characters as being separate. They've had different experiences over the course of 3 years on the meteor. The characters now have different dynamics and relationships. We didn't see any of what caused those other than little snippets from the Vriskagram.

I'm sick of not seeing any of the characters growing and then being told things are different now years later and that I should accept it. It's exhausting to constantly be invested in something to only see it fall apart or subverted time and time again. At first, it was entertaining. Now it just makes me want to stop caring about the comic because it's like an abusive husband that beats me every night, but I'm scared to leave and be alone. It's probably just me. Whatever.

>It was complaining about how Gamzee was seemingly allowed to just get away with it, with none of the characters even really reacting in a natural way to the fact that their friends were killed, and the murderer was right there.
Except this complain is uncalled for. Like I have explained to you several time,
1. The characters reacted a Natural way, with Kanay still wanting to hunt the clown and Terezi going down for being fooled by the clown and Karkat wanting the violence to simply stop no matter what.

The only thing that was treated as a joke was the final showdown of hit.

Once again, I think you missremember the formspring, as the complain was only about how it didn't end in a big fight. The complain that "all is forgiven because it's just a joke" is an uncalled for complain and is proven wrong along the story.
>>
>>78923775
She cared about them and about Tavros, because they were their friends. and the killing she did of Tavros was unnecessary. Compared to the ghost she outright call lesser version of the main character and disposable copy she never really befriend with. It's not impossible she let the Main A1 Trolls alive (those who died with Meenah on the lillypad).

Not defending her, just explaining her track of thoughts. Not to mention some acctually experessed the desire to cease to exist (HOrse-Rufioh), she was more than please to oblige.

To save what can be saved. I GO ,t hey all die, remember. aLso, Retcon power doesn't actually create new timeline, it alter the current one. Only people who die in a retcon timeline get to keep existing beyond the retcon. Work the same way than with the scratch (meenah had to kill the A1 Trolls to not be wiped out by the Scratch).

But seriously that'd be out of character for both Karkat and John
Though I sorta like the idea of a situation like this happening and it being entirely physical on both ends, with Vriska domming Karkat entirely fro stress relief on both ends, and letting John fuck her because friends with benefits is the closest to a real red relationship she can keep down

Actually on further thought Karkat might not have a problem it he takes it as her and John being in another quadrant or him and her moving to a different one

It was proven wrong. Gamzee's action were not left unpunished or without conesequence; that alone invlidate the complains. All that is left is people diapointed they didn't see a big Gamzee-Karkat fight. (but we ended up seeing an epic Gamzee-Terezi Fight, so that make up for it).

The thing is, the current final update kind of adress this point and remind that those who died in the other timelines still matters.

That being said, your invest wasn't there for naught either as theyr are still roughly the same with just a few differences.

The one that was chnaged the most are basically Rose and Terezin those are the two who differ the most from the original meteor trip, but.
1. Pre-retcon Rose still live on as Jasprosesprite, so your investment in her still matter and
2. Terezi still live on as she know is all the terezi in a single one, so the investment you had in her still matter.
