How would you improve Jade's character? Was it ever salvageable?

Me? I would have liked her if grimbark was less mind control, and more a revelation of her hidden self, maybe something like shadows from persona 4. If her loneliness and isolation had secretly manifested itself into a bitterness towards her friends, and grimbark was the manifestation of those negative emotions into rage with a little help of the condesce.

>hogs the narrative

>magically fixes every problem
Forming the dubiously necessary Green Sun black hole above the actual English showdown and helping Roxy with the matriorb, which the narrative could easily have allowed Roxy to do on her own but instead found small poetry in her acting as her Muse, are not Sue-tier problems solved.
>liked for no reason
They like her because she's a nice person and long-time friend of all four Alpha kids. She's elected as the person to get the ring of life because Roxy was able to be in charge of the decision and she treasures her. Calliope is greeted in a friendly manner because everyone loves Roxy and trust that Calliope is a pleasant person who deserved to get her life back.

I really think there was some ball-dropping when Jane and her were magically fixed. EVERY other solution including the ones where they DIE PERMANENTLY would have been more satisfying to me as a fan of either character.

It was though
She was bitter at Dave for Davesprite's actions and generally a bitch, it's just that Jade in general was kind of a nice person.


I'd have given her more outbursts. Like John she has a tendency to repress her emotions but that didn't go too much anywhere. More railing against her fate to be kind of shafted so when she finally says fuck it to her role and makes an effort to take what she wants it'd be more satisfying.

Please share this good Homestuck with me, because I saw her getting brought back to life and immediately relegated to Mayor status while her alternate counterpart went and did something that I still can't discern a reason for based on what we knew about English's powers.

>>82314112
Not only is she boring, she has to compete with her brother.
And it's not really just that, it's also that she's an angel while her brother is the devil, but THAT'S WHAT THEY WERE BORN TO BE
It invokes a certain kind of morality debate: if someone is born evil and can't change no matter what, should they really be condemned? Is it their fault? What about the inverse?

I don't get why characters didn't start to nosell her. Like, by halfway in people should have started to just go "Uh huh" "That's nice Vriska" "Sure whatever" to everything she says and every time she starts to get nasty baby bitch about it John just smiles and cracks his knuckles where she can hear it.

It would have been AMAZING to see her impotent, ignored, and treated like a fucked up abuse case.

Is what I was trying to discuss before being rudely interrupted

>>82314198
One guy had a theory that Vriska used her powers as Thief of Light to exchange metaphorical roles with Lord English (a character's role in a story falling under the purview of Light). The idea was that English is the cue stick and Vriska is an 8-ball, but she switched it up so that English was the 8-ball and could therefore be pocketed in the black hole that Calliope created.

It's kind of out there for a theory but I thought it was a creative way of getting from point A to point B.

I agree there. I feel she should have been much more instrumental in English's defeat personally since she was literally Caliborn's other half. Hussie had a ton set up for that, which he entirely ignored because the ending was bullshit and he's exhausted.

And I thought she got about 10 seconds before she was sucked into it herself.

So Caliborn shouldn't be judged for being inherently evil, since it's part of his nature. I get that, it just seems like because you like Caliborn, you can't like Calliope.

I guess it just boils down to what your personal preference is.

How would you have given the remaining characters god tiers while keeping it still a bit non conventional and feeling less like it was necessary, and more like a bonus?

I'm confused as to why Godtier wasn't tied to Denizens. I know that it was an early loose idea, but it just seems natural that to achieve Godtier you'd have to actually talk to your Denizen and do what they say to 'win' before you actually are allowed to become a spazoid pajamas god.

But it isn't that a bit contrived? I'd rather have them god tiered in their session and then just suck at their respective powers.

SBURB is already rather fucked up, so might as well only be able to fight the Black King or obtain the reward if you're god tier. Meaning that, if you are not willing to die at least once as part of a ritual sacrifice, no one can win.

Which would eventually lead to a lot of murder of the unwilling.

Real jade which was a silly little girl that liked to play with her dog, dressed up her manthro chaps, and shot things. Her hobbies felt very sincere and part of her character which was different than the other characters, probably because her screentime was so short. Hussie tried to make her grow up very quick after her dreamself died and her bad horrorterror dreams. Then she chilled out almost immediately and got no more development and just became happy smiling girl who waved until grimbark.

God tiers was one of the things that most of the players we saw basically cheated at to even know about, or were manipulated into getting way ahead of where they should have been in their progression.

I feel like Hussie shat his plot partly because he never bothered to give even a simple outline of how a usual 'successful' session would go. I'm not terribly impressed with much of what went on when I had zero frame of reference for what was 'normal' and what exactly was being bent around so bad.

It worked early on great with Jack getting the ring; you could FEEL how this wasn't how it was supposed to go. then it got really sloppy and shit-sprayed as the years piled on.

How hard is it to imagine a simple session? Players go through all their gates to slowly level up, they fight the BK and BQ and win. Denizen choices are always optional, slaying them is fine to get the grist hoard. Apparently though you can just ask echidna to release the grist hoard from every land because hussie is a HACK

We've seen so many caveats, options, variants, and unexplained details that no, I actually don't have any idea if that's how a 'normal' session is supposed to go, especially with Godtiers and Denizens.

I mean, it felt implied that the trolls brute forced their way through and earned a shitty dying universe. It... really didn't feel like the kids didn't do that too.

I can see that. I figured, if I'm making it up, the idea is quests, max level, face Denizen which you assume is your final boss or something, do a special quest/choice/w/e, Denizen releases grist, tells you to go die on your quest bed to reach Skaia and begin the final battle as a God.

Dave and John are supposed to be bros, but they they didn't really get to do anything together at any point in the comic. Apart from one face to face conversation?

In general it is odd if the comic makes a point of how these four are great friends but then does not show all of it. I can't remember one instance in which Jade and Rose talked or something. There probably was though I guess.

If Vriska is related to the 8-ball and the black queen is somehow related to the 8-ball as well, I would argue that Vriska and the Queen are somehow related. I have very little evidence to back up my next argument., but I believe that somehow Vriska sacrifices herself as a big move to get everyone else in a better position. Such as similar to that in chess.

Another theory I have is when the "scratch happened is the death of Caliborn. He some how misses Vriska completely in an attempt to kill her and ends up somehow "sinking himself."
>>
>>82314847
it's the same thing with shipping, as soon as Hussie makes a ship canon he stops writing those two characters together because he can't wrap his head around sincere, life-affirming relationships

>legendary weapons didn't even really get used apart from the quills

As an aside, I always liked the subtle idea presented earlier on that every Denizen has an ultra weapon of the element of their player, but a design belonging to the player opposing them geographically or whatever pattern was intended.

So Echidna, with Jade, ends up with those quills that Rose can use. While Hephaestus had a time element hammer. Meaning, by whatever logic, that Typheus likely had a darkness/wind element sword, and Cetus a water/light based gun.

If you want a general idea of the humor and format in a much more succinct format (still 1000 pages, but relatively little reading on each) before you start Homestuck then read Hussie's previous comic, Problem Sleuth.

The first 4 acts were manageable in one large chunk of reading to me as an ADD teenager. It does go off the rails, but it's still worth the read. The trolls may endear themselves to you.

Read up to a page called [S] WV: Ascend (generally regarded as the first real moment of "oh wow this comic is something special"), then up to the end of Act 4 if you like that, then up to the end of Act 5 if the trolls were tolerable enough, then consider whether or not [S] Cascade was enough of an ending before plunging ahead. If you start Act 6 you're going to have to read the whole thing, which features many of the comics highs and lows, and only minimal closure by the end.

Criticism =/= hate. I'm sure there is hate, but most negativaty towards Calliope, however emotional, comes from one of questioning - why is this character in the story? Why does she recieve no comeuppance for her flaws and errors, or have them pawned onto others? Why is she treat like a saint when she has no choice BUT to be kind, on a genetic level? Most pet dogs are bred to be nice, and so we like them, but just because your dog is always happy to see you doesn't mean it's Mother Teresa.

A lot of people are giving the reason that Calliope is boring. I'd certainly say she became boring, after her revelation. There was buildup towards a nice, but eerily over-enthusiastic troll-like character that was plainly being deceitful even if they didn't have harm in mind, and then all the air went out and the main's characters foolish lack of suspicion became justified. You could argue a lot became boring towards the end of Act 6 but Calliope for many is the centrepiece of it all.

He showed up in the troll session something like an act and a half later, the Bandicoot analogy didn't strictly require an example that early on.

Besides that, Calliope introduced the concept of cherubs having two sides. Is this important? Sure, it justifies itself. None of it actually means anything.

>>
>>82316200
You know, when we were introduced to the concept of successful alt-Calliope I was really looking forward to how she would interact with her own Felt. If she loved the Felt that might have just about redeemed her. But of all the parts Calliope gushes about, the contents of the Intermission are completely absent.
>>
>>82316285
Alright, so it's a hasty test sketch not fit to appear in the comic. It stands out for a reason.
>>
>>82316156
The Intermission is entertaining on its own and tells a reasonably complete story with a beginning, middle and end, but it also functions as an introduction to Jack and, to a lesser extent, the other members of his gang and the Felt.

Caliope, meanwhile, is a blandly saccharine character whose only real purpose is to provide dully-written infodumps of exposition, something which multiple characters could have done (and indeed, as Areana showed, were doing at the time she was introduced). She was clearly intended to be a foil for her brother, but failed to do so well because she wasn't anywhere near as dynamic or interesting in her own right.

Caliborn himself was at least entertaining to watch, if only because he was essentially a slightly more abrasive version of early Karkat.
>>
>>82316284
>based on the best fans
>draws like shelby

Hilarious.
>>
>>82316292
I'll agree on a lack of dynamism and being prone to exposition, won't agree to a lack of interest or blandness. I treasure Calliope to the same degree as I treasure MNC/Felt time travel antics.

And it still doesn't have plot relevance. The Felt are extremely secondary. I was surprised they were even presented as a threat in Collide since that had little to no setup, and they were primarily taken down by two of the more useless characters at the time.

Mind you, great fight, I treasure them, but my whole point is that the MNC and the Felt were as irrelevant to the main plot as Calliope was. Whatever the fuck you could consider the main plot to be at this point in this wreck of a story, anyway.

>>82316337
Money memes aside, Shelby was fine. Made tons of fan content, generally knew what the hell was going on (though I still have a bone to pick with her over a shitty cherub bloodswap), decent sense of humor. Still don't know why that all didn't translate to her original comics.
>>
>>82316292
Aranea provides an interesting contrast with Calliope, as they were both exposition fairies introduced at similar points in the story. Aranea was the more likeable character, the more balanced character and recieved fair return for her errors. She was well written, Calliope wasn't.

It's NOT the fanbase that killed Homestuck

Oh, rest assured, the fanbase is cancer incarnate

But Hussie was ASKING - arguably even INTENDING - to make such a cancerous fanbase

Homestuck is packed to the brim with memes and references, which is not bad by itself. The core cast of John, Dave, Rose and Jade - they're alright - at first. They're typing styles are distinct and they have their own voice

But when the trolls come in it all goes to shit

First off he introduces TWELVE new fucking characters - good fucking luck balancing that.

But secondly - and more importantly - he makes these trolls sluts, basically.

They're all bisexuals, and they all have weird as fuck romances, to the point that Terezi doesn't think it's strange to fuck someone else while fucking Dave because "that's different romance, man"

Suddenly, Homestuck changes what it's about. Rather than being a semi-wacky semi-serious scifi story, it becomes a clusterfuck of relationships and shipping

And there was NEVER a good series that was based on shipping.

NEVER

fucking

EVER

The fans didn't kill Homestuck

>>82316388
You think Rose waxed poetic about the Midnight Crew and the Felt? Calliope made due with what she had, and what she had was a lot of details about life on Alternia.

And who knows, maybe she was practically Cherub Shakespeare with her self-insert fanfictions. Maybe she even had all four kids meet up and have a full conversation and pose as a team, unlike a certain lipman we all know.

I'll grant you shipping. A girl gets bored on a meteor and romance was a novelty to her.
>>
>>82316388

>Doesn't complain about Homestuck's many, many problems.

That's the key bit, I think. If Caliope is Hussie's idea of the "ideal" fan, you have to take away the impression that he wanted passive consumers who don't complain and is most interested in the interminable muddling of characters talking to each other forever. Caliborn's well liked because he vents the frustrations of a lot of the people who'd followed it from the beginning and is most interested in following "the plot" and actually playing the game.

That's the thing Hussie got completely backwards. During Act 5 with the shipping exposition when peope started complaining, he accused them of just wanting to see fights and that they didn't care about "the plot." To Hussie, the parts Caliborn enjoyed was not the important part of Homestuck's story, whereas Calliope enjoyed Homestuck "correctly."

I believe you can interpret an authors fetishes from their work. What do you think hussies are? Horses aside, I think it's pretty obvious he has a thing for glasses and bossy women.
>>
>>82316500
Hussie is 100% into femdom. The grand majority of the male cast are whiny bottom bitches. Aside from that, all you have to look at is Vriska.
>>
>>82316284
She clearly only cares about characters and shipping.

Caliborn is the one who gushed about world building and lore. Plus, he literally created the Felt
>>
>>82316383
I'm not sure Aranea is that good a character either, but that might be because I basically dislike all of Act 6 onwards. You're right though, for all that the infodumping itself was pretty poorly written, outside of that she actually does stand up as a character with motivations, and an arc which is similar to Vriska's but different enough to work on its own and act as a commentary on her counterpart.

>>82316478
Exactly.

I really question whether that was his intention at the start of story, Maybe hitting on the "Sonic OC" sweet spot of simplistic yet appealing character generation with the Trolls and seeing the fanbase explode in size caused him to change gears. Maybe he found it easier to endlessly recycle his IM folder. It certainly seems like his solution to any writing block was just to add more (ultimately pretty samey) characters and retell the same story over and over rather than focus on a core cast that changes and develops over time.

>Maybe hitting on the "Sonic OC" sweet spot of simplistic yet appealing character generation with the Trolls and seeing the fanbase explode in size caused him to change gears.
I genuinely think it was this. He was always incredibly fragile about criticism or any opinion that wasn't unambiguously positive. I remember one Formspring answer that basically boiled down to "people criticize because they don't put in anywhere near as much thought into Homestuck as I do, and when you read the archive you will see I always made the best desicion." The rush from getting all the new hits from the growing fanbase combined with criticism from the old crowd validated his ego to such an extent it got too out of control for the comic to handle.
>>
>>82316535
Oh yeah, I agree that Aranea isn't a fabulous character on the whole. The concept was at least coherently executed and with balance/checks and returns, which is more than one can say about Calliope, it was just redundant with Vriska and Calliope (and another blatant exposition fairy to avoid Hussie blacktexting himself).

I completely agree on the second paragraph incidentally; Hussie stumbled assbackwards into tapping into the rich vein of teens looking for superficial OC fodder, and he just drifted into exploiting that for easy bux. From his end, it's only a few small compromises in a story that we've already enjoyed ANYWAY, in return for him not needing to really work for the rest of his life.
>>
>>82316500
I don't have my image of Hussie with Rachel Rocklin, but that woman has a rather square jaw. It could tie into some of the other stuff brought up here.

Was Hussie ever in a relationship with Cindy Marie? Last thread some were saying she practically could be a prototype for jade, dark hair and glasses

>>82316754

>>
>>82316551
I'm not sure if that's the case given his other work. I do think he was deliberately misinterpreting the complaints of most of his critics in order to appeal to his new, vocal trollfans who were after tween drama. People liked Problem Sleuth and the early acts of Homestuck, after all, and that's 90% dicking about with MEANINGFUL conflict throughout - PS in the context of ridiculous and funny puzzles and HS with flashes and great music

Whatever he planned to start with, Hussie decided to write angsty teen drama with the game as a backdrop, wasn't as good at it as he thought he was, lashed out and doubled down on it in Act 6 (out of spite or to prove his critics wrong I can't say). The problem is that continuously adding new characters costs you interest from the people who were already invested in the existing ones. The new characters have to be different enough to distinguish themselves from the others that they have a purpose in the story (because if they don't, why aren't you using the existing cast) but also have to be interesting enough in their own right to get over the initial hump of introducing themselves.

He sort of managed it with the Trolls the first time because the core cast of kids was quite small and the Trolls were clearly supporting parts or jokes, but then it kept going on and on and on, with progressively worse characters each time.

It's deeper than that. The two Andys worked extensively together on colour software, and co-own several patents. I've never seen a direct source but I've both heard, and would wager independently from the scale of the patents seen, that the Hussie family is sitting on a ton of money from those puppies. We're talking huge industrial uses in almost every sector.

Needless to say, Snr.'s death must have hit Jnr. really fucking hard. I'm more at peace with the degradation of the comic knowing that he had to put up with that at the same time as being robbed.

It's a colorimetrics program, used to create close equivalencies between various models of colours (such as screen RGB, print CMYK, the classic art class RYB, expanded inks such as CMGYOK and others). All colour systems have limitations, and if you just transfer one to the other you get weird effects that make eg/ reds look more orange or greens become indistinguishable.

Hussie really knows his colours. Analyse any panel in Homestuck. Almost every colour is carefully picked and crafted to suit the panel, and the result is fittingly gorgeous.

Its been so long now and so many of the current fans came in with the Trolls that its hard to say with any certainty what people thought. Anecdotally, while I came in on a high straight after Problem Sleuth, I did find the first act very slow going and had to give it a few weeks (or maybe even months) to build up a backlog and keep going. By the time the music starte coming in regularly I was hooked.

The music was actually one of the most important things. The later albums certainly had more of it, but so little was actually used in the comic that it always struck me as a bit off. It didn't help that the early pieces were so strong - Showtime, Harlequin, Sburban Jungle, Upward Movement, all of them are still great little melodies, similar enough to classic videogame scores to be familiar and appropriate but different enough to stand on their own.

Watch Jack: Ascend and Descend again
http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003568
http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=003840

That was the end of Years one and two. That's half a decade ago now at least, the culmination of the first four acts. They were near perfect Homestuck moments, combining really well made music, exciting action, plot development, and utter ridiculousness in one package while not overstaying their welcome because they're edited together really tightly - there's nothing extraneous about them at all (apart from the squiddles, which at the time I thought was a hint to something bigger more fool me) I got a sense of all the characters even from their brief appearances, I understood the stakes and I wanted more than anything to see what everyone involved does next!

I don't think anything really topped them, which is terribly sad considering how early they are in Homestuck's history.

Can't agree more.
You can tell how Hussie burned himself out after the useless mammoth that was Meenahquest. That, plus the Kickstarter, had a very obvious impact in Homestuck. After that point the quantity of flashes started decreasing and the writing became bad (so bad that Hussie tried to fix it by retconning it, which only made it worse).

But before that? I loved the alpha session and the interactions of the alpha kids. Which was ultimately discarded just like everything else in this fucking wreck of a comic.

even caliborn was pointless

you don't flesh the backstory of a character AND THEN NEVER HAVE THAT CHARACTER SPEAK AGAIN

especially with that 'oh english isn't just caliborn he's Equius/AR/1/2 Gamzee/Caliborn combined and if you don't like it well i just think you're mad cuz you're single'

Trash design, stupid bland personality ooh he's a jerk with a heart of gold, responsible for a good deal of stupid romance bullshit, his long-winded dialogue that's pretty just Dave but with more swears takes up half the comic, one of the most overrated characters I've ever seen in the history of anything.

In all my years of reading I could never find it in myself to find him remotely amusing and I'm glad everyone realizes how much of an awful character he is.

His horns are hotdogs, and that makes me sad.

I love him and I want to hold him close while petting his hair and telling him that everything's okay.

>yo i love him and i want to ironically hold him close while petting his hair and then unironically telling him that everything's okay

Dave doesn't use apostrophes.

Doesn't deserve to enter the new universe, to be honest.

He's like a failed Tavros. And Tavros already is a stunted John, so that's saying something.

Characters who are shit compared to the great Vriska:

>>82319505
Vriska is at least 8 times cooler than (Vriska).
Mind you, zero times eight is still zero.
