So we obviously all have a best case scenario in mind for the upcoming epilogue, but what about a WORST case scenario? Aside from just not being done, of course.
>>
>>83276968
whole epilogue is just davekat
>>
>>83276968
never happening is the best case scenario

i've lost all hope for hussie enthusiastically updating homestuck to make it great again
>>
>>83276968

>>
>>83276968
best case scenario is the epilogue forcefully redirecting to undertale.com or whatever toby's next thing is and a wav file of hussie sobbing
>>
davekat is the worst case scenario in anything

real talk the epilogue not being planned would have been better, a lot of people came back on 4/13 expecting the end and instead homestuck gets dragged out even further
the epilogue won't fix the problems with homestuck in the same way the extended cut/citadel dlc didn't fix the problems with mass effect
at least if act 7 was the final end people wouldn't be strung along

>best case scenario
There never were any "best case scenarios" for the epilogue.

Let me predict the true end case scenario that is guaranteed to happen:

>Jack Noir and Ms Paint Marriage
>Roxy leaves John for Calliope
>Davekat / Polyshit confirmed
>Davepeta and Jasprose still exist
>last panels are about Terezi looking sad into the sky, but then she sees a light and then the epilogue ends
>no plot holes explained
>Jake, Jade, Dirk and Jane play soccer with Dad's decapitated head

There you go. Now every future hst thread is about Davekat bitching, smug Davekat posters, butthurt Davejade posters, butthurt lorefags, that fucking guy who keeps on posting screencaps of reddit with a tipsy comment, that guy who dumps awful group shot art with the obligatory gay couples shoved in a corner, your precious tripfags were davekat fanboys all along and then a mod finally bans us for good.
>>
>>83277087
he only ships them because he thinks red eyes are a sure sign of alpha maleness and that dave and karkat must be manly bros and battle companions instead of insecure weenies trapped on a meteor with no other options for three years

is it that much of a stretch to assume that he would think anyone who shared his traits must be a badass like him
>>

>>Davepeta and Jasprose still exist
there's good reason I don't think the sprites will survive, and that's the fact there was two nannasprites combined with hussie's autistic obsession with only one of any character surviving

I wonder if he's actually started working on the epilogue

TO BE CONTINUED, in the upcoming Hiveswap game!

>>83277597
the fact that im scared this may legit happen is part of the reason why im satisfied with the silent end and really dont even fucking want an epilogue. andrews consistently fucked up the emotional resonance shit. all i want is jokes and time travel and high stakes videobgane shit and puzzles. the meme last words from dirk were fine. no more shitty conversations about feelings. fuck

>>83277776
I'm more curious about how seriously he'll take it. There's every chance that if he put some effort into the epilogue it could be alright, given he has the time to go back and look at what needs covering still both plot and character wise. But I'm not hopeful this'll be the case, considering he seemed to forget how to write half the cast with the last large pause.
>>
>>83278257
He missed so many 8's in the last few conversations that involved Vriska. It makes me wonder if he really did have a ghost writer or if he just forgot that Vriska replaces more things with 8 than the letter B.

He also started giving Terezi apostrophes out of nowhere.

We may never know, both options are depressing.

I expect he's one of those managers who knows how to do the work, so he keeps trying to do the work himself instead of delegating. Which just frustrates the people who are SUPPOSED to be doing the work.

>WORST case scenario
Hussie falls prey to his own insecurities and becomes passive aggressive towards the reader, using the narrative throne to attempt to justify the ending and short-comings of the story, all while completely failing to deliver a satisfying conclusion that ties major up loose ends and characters "arcs" without coming off as condescending, preachy, or ironic. Hussie then takes this mindset to the grave, never reaching his full potential as an artist and comedian. Worse still, the failure of any future works, if any, are blamed on the rest of the world simply "not getting it," and he's left with no ther option but to repeatedly drag out Homestuck's rotting corpse to secure the current month's grub money. Hussie's malevolent aura of self-inflicted mediocrity becomes so great before he finally kicks the bucket at the ripe age of 110, that Dante Basco's career is permanently stained by his involvement in Homestuck 2.0, an event nervously muttered under baited breath in only the deepest echelons of a draconian MSPA forum. "Homestucks" is bought into the dictionary by IPGD, and some inane quote by Vriska serves as Hussie's epitaph, his tomb a mausoleum dedicated to his second wife (Hussie is legally wed to Vriska during his second mid-life crisis after being confronted by Dante Basco in a Rufio costume). Rumor's of the Hussman's treasure horde lasts for about a day before the world is free from his influence, rabid acts of jubilation and vandalism spreading across the globe like wild fire, resulting in untold millions of property damage. The treasure is never found and Homestuck fans are nervously left wondering if Homestuck is ever truly over until the day they're freed by Death's loving embrace.

Depends on which Karkat you're talking about. The actual pre-retcon Karkat or that other weenie Karkat. The guy has a lot of setups that work depending on the circumstances of the character. He has good chemistry with a large number of characters and there's a lot of characters who could offer him a good, stable relationship to deal with his issues without butchering his character with magical meta powers.

Well, no, but getting Caliborn to hold still long enough to get trapped in Lil' Cal would require a really strong dude, and any chance of John (the only one strong enough of the kids to put a dent in Caliborn) being the guy to do it was taken away when Caliborn got him stuck in the house juju, so ARquius had to do it, being half Equius, and everything close to Caliborn went with him, including ARquius and half of Gamzee

I doubt that his plan was to become part of LE, but rather to help defeat Caliborn somehow. He did this, but ended up sucked into Cal with Caliborn's soul.

It's a catharsis thing. Someone is knocked down, another character raises them up again. The reader empathises with the hurt character, links their own hurt to the fictional person, and gets pulled up when the narration pulls up the ficional character.
at least that's how I think it's supposed to work. it's not my thing.

The whole thing is stupid, but it most likely applies to Karkat as, whilst they did have chemistry and clearly cared for each other, they were terrible for each other with the personal issues they each had lead to them both having impaired judgement on the journey.

In all honesty though, we didn't see any of the struggles they must have had over the 3 year journey, especially Terezi. So the whole scene doesn't hold much weight or deal with any of the actual problems the two had with each other, instead electing to just avoid them and never bring them up. Get used to that.

The point was to make Hal the dominant personality in Doc Scratch. And there are some minor connections between Scratch and Equius. Also LE needed to honk.

When they started the 3 year trip and had all of like 1 conversation together. Its seems like a weird thing for terezi to go 'yeah instead of being more clear with karkat, lets just fuck around and allow myself to end up down with the clown as if that wasn't the actual issue.'

>>83282800
Where terezi is sad she isn't r4d enough and then go gets her vision fixed like a retard

Yup the troll's interpersonal relationships were handled in such a terrible manner it's almost laughable, given they were one of the big draws for much of the viewer base at peak popularity. Terezi and Karkat had the interactions, they just never added up to anything really meaningful for a romantic relationship before Karkat fucked their thing up and did his whole jealousy juggling act with Dave.

KARKAT: HER RAD GIRL THING IS SUCH AN OBVIOUS ACT. SHE'S CLEARLY WORKED FOR SWEEPS ON PERFECTING IT, AND QUITE APPARENTLY REVELS IN THE ATTENTION IT GETS HER.

KARKAT: BUT THE FACT THAT SHE WORKS SO HARD ON IT IS EXACTLY WHY YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.

KARKAT: YOU DON'T EVEN NEED TO TRY TO BE THE GOOD PERSON YOU ALREADY ARE.

KARKAT: SEE, YOU ALREADY KNOW HOW TO HAVE FUN AND BE LIKABLE BY JUST BEING YOURSELF. IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE PART OF SOME OVER THE TOP SCHTICK TO IMPRESS PEOPLE. WHEN SHE DOES THE RAD GIRL THING IT'S LIKE A DISGUISE, PROBABLY COVERING UP SOME PART OF HERSELF SHE'S UNHAPPY WITH.

I TOTALLY ACCEPT THAT. BUT AS YOUR FRIEND I REALLY DON'T WANT YOU TO START FEELING BAD ABOUT YOURSELF BECAUSE OF ONE OF THESE SHALLOW, TWO DIMENSIONAL DIPSHITS. BUT I TOTALLY CONCEDE THAT YOU MADE YOUR CHOICE ABOUT ME, AND I RESPECT YOUR DECISION. I JUST WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY IS ALL.

I just didn't care too much for karkat/terezi, or really terezi in general. Like the tower conversation was cute but everything after that was a mess because 'lol quadrants' and not in the satisfying soap opera way but in a boring, I really don't care about how this shit plays out way.
>>
>>83283118
Well you asked if she had a thing with Karkat, which she obviously did.
>>
>>83283024
And then Terezi realized that she can't always rely on other people, so she told her retcon self she doesn't need them.

Except for a Vriska who has not learned anything regarding respecting other people, because I guess (Terezi) wants the new one to gain independence from Vriska and get rid of using her to fill a self esteem void with other people, which caused a lot of issues for (Terezi) to begin with. And (TZ) got over her issues because she made up with (Vriska).

But (Karkat) or Karkat? Not important here.
>>
>>83283118
I guess I'm biased because I read this shit as a pent-up teen but that seems really, I dunno
Like missing the point or something
>>
>>83283024
That just makes me wonder how much of Terezi's personality is natural and how much of it is her putting on that weird girl act. Depending on that Karkat could have just made her feel even worse, which would be a very Karkat thing to do I suppose.

Fuck, it would help if Terezi wasn't all over the place emotionally speaking. I still have no fucking clue what her base line is, she suggests she has huge issues in being genuine with her feelings so just what was she actually like? I wish we'd seen more of her interacting with people who weren't problem children like Karkat and Vriska to just get a hold of her deal.

Yeah, but let's be real, they were definitely being portrayed as the gay couple, what with how Vriska's entire redesigned look. Tattoos? Piercings? Shaving the sides of her head? These people have stolen the punk look and appropriated it for themselves.

Meenah at least kicked (Vriska) to the curb and snatched a bit of her dignity back, but (Vriska) remained a loser to the end.

Calliope is of a species that reproduces exclusively through mutual violent rape. And unlike Caliborn, we have no reason to believe she's a sexual deviant into perveted softcore shit.
>>
>>83283789
>>83283850
Actually, I find it ironic how Caliborn is the only one with the capacity to actually FEEL love, seeing as how he fused with 3 other beings who can experience that emotion. Calliope, despite being the "nicer" cherub, is the one who can't feel any romantic feelings at all and is totally unable to feel any passion for other people.

Calliope got excited and was encouraging... but very real people were just characters in a story to her. Caliborn was a shit, but you could eventually get his respect. Calliope only saw other people as props in her fanfics, and that was where she ended up as the Muse: alone.

Just gonna come out and say this right now: The stuff you see here NEVER gets elaborated on or revisited later despite being extremely important and extremely vague.

This is a major part of why people were disappointed with the ending - many expected this sequence to come up again or at least be properly explained.

For now, it's up to fans to figure out how this timeline works and piece together all the clues. How did Caliborn get the ring? How did Arquius get there? Which version of the kids is this? And most importantly, what happens to them after this? We just don't know, though most of it can be deduced with relative certainty.

It's still likely to happen in the epilogue though.

If it makes you feel any better, the fact that you're already alone means that you are an unpleasant individual to be around, and any relationships you did manage to cultivate would be a sparse and unhappy afair, and would ultimately fall apart, leaving you just alone as before but with a much clearer focus for your depression.

So be thankful!

No we don't, the latest we see any of them in their timelines, the Beta kids are stuck in the Juju, possibly escaping, but still in the furthest rim, and the Beta kids are trapped in Cal's session.

>>83284438
We don't know what happens to the kids though. The alpha kids seem to be left to rot on Caliborn's planet for all eternity, and the Beta kids appear to get sucked into the black hole with Lord English. What a shitty ending.

The Furthest Ring exists outside of timelines, if anything was ever banished to the void, it doesn't matter if you then overwrite the timeline, or if the timeline hasn't been retconned into existence yet, Lil Cal and the House Juju were always already there.

You know, Hussie could have made that idea work real well if he had put actual effort into it. He had the tools all right there. Black holes, glitch items, an actual GAME that Caliborn was still a part of despite his power, they could have used literal game mechanics and shit to glitch something out and make a plot hole.
>>
>>83284500
>>83284512
I meant the ending. We see them sucked into the juju, and then in the ending we see that juju being used against Caliborn. We just have no idea how why where when. Just that they're in there, John somehow gets powers from it, then it's used against English.

But we have no idea what happens after, how they got to Earth, how the loop started if it is even a loop, just, fuck me I am so confused this is *legendarily* shitty writing

Hussie got way way into the comic itself being meta, instead of keeping it in his pants and allowing just the PREMISE to be meta, of kids aware of a game playing a game. Instead it had to involve everything outside of the comic as well, which got... really awkward and lame. Hussie self-inserting was beyond embarrassing.

Okay here's my shitty theory.

Caliborn describes the house Juju and Lil Cal as trapping people's souls, not their physical form. We can see what it looks when you tear out someone's soul, when Dirk tries it on Aranea. The clay figures getting sucked in during the Masterpiece is just a symbolic representation.

In Act 7, we see the House juju flash with the aspects of the four kids, then wipe itself clean. I take this to mean their souls have been released to make room for Lord English, probably returned to their body, so John is able to take everyone home.

Then the house Juju opens its door as we see energy rush towards the door. This is Lord English's soul(s) being trapped in the Juju, just like the Beta kids were trapped in the Masterpiece. (I imagine that if we got to see it do the aspecty thing again it would show Time, Heart, Void, and Rage). Then everything within the circle of destruction (pic related) is pulled into the black hole, including the house juju.

If you just threw LE into a black hole, then he could probably escape, and if you just trapped his soul, someone would probably find the juju, but I imagine that having these two layers of entrapment would do the trick.

4 seperate slots in the juju though
>>
>>83284831
>>83284837

>>
>>83284632

Hussie's plan for Jake was for him to become Caliborn's nemesis and realize all his potential and be a brave and powerful adventurer worthy of having Lord English take his name after Jake shows him his first defeat

But at some point Hussie derailed that arc and turned Jake into a total irredeemable joke, and then John is the one to actually fuck up Caliborn and dent his ego the way Jake was obviously supposed to. And Dirk is the one Caliborn respects, and the one who actually seals him away. So the reasoning for Lord English's name is now completely retarded and forced. Nice going Hussie.

Yes.

AN ACTUAL BATTLE.

I will not be happy with anything less than a full battle between the 4 kids emerging from the house and Lord English. Even if other alternatives make sense, they are still anticlimactic.

Having LE trapped in the house is fine, but in that case he should be forced into it by the kids, with Dave's cueball sword obviously doing the final act of knocking the 8-ball into the pocket.

As the one who posted that theory, I would much prefer if yours was the case, I just thought it made more sense my way. It's a relatively minor change, though.

If there was a fight, I'd say that afterwards John tries to teleport everyone out but can't teleport ghosts. (Unfortunately this would mean that Vriska probably survives, unless she instead elects to hold onto the Juju chest to ensure it goes into the black hole)

Or it really is something of a downer end and the kids legitimately get sucked into the black hole.

>>83285133
No matter how you look at it, they were responsible for both creating and defeating English simply because of how the Masterpiece goes down.
>>
>>83285133
Speaking of magic devices that solve problems for free, it's pretty lame that ghosts can apparently use all their powers. Like when a dead alternate version of Feferi revived WV. It really cheapens the concept of player choice, not to mention death, when a dead alternate version of a character is just as capable of having "real" effects as they would be if they were alive.

The worst part is, Feferi's ghost reviving WV is only a minor example of dream ghost bullshit. Dream ghost alt selves are responsible for the most important events in the comic, up to and including the destruction of the Green Sun, which is apparently something that Calliope can just do.

Now, this isn't an irredeemable concept. The dream bubble ghosts existing isn't bad in itself, and it wouldn't be so bad for them to influence events... if they had help from the "real" main characters. Things like the Ring of Life, which can be given to a ghost by someone who is still alive and able to affect events, allowing them to act indirectly by empowering the dead.

Instead, we have the entire Green Sun plotline spontaneously resolving itself, with no outside input. Through a doomed timeline, no less.

I felt the dreambubble ghosts were a good way for the actual/alpha/not-dead characters to gain insight into themselves and their co-players. Like saving some experience points from after they had to continue from an old savepoint. But that would be in character development, like learning how to talk to a denizen because you met someone who did it wrong and got themselves killed, or an older version of yourself teaching you how to do the Heart-y thing. and this fits in the 'ultimate self' stuff that you-know-who^2 glossed over later: the character advances even from dead-end storylines.

Caliborn in any from has never used time magyyk.

But he's bestowed clockwork magic to the Handmaid and Condesce and He's "time traveled" vie the CAIRO OVERCOAT.

If Echidna gave her a similar choice to what Yolobob gave Caliborn, then she would be promised to

I'm sure Caliborn had all kinds of neat powers and tricks. But Hussie had long, long, long stopped caring about details and game mechanics and such, so lazily he punched people and belched rainbow lasers, which was always animated really, really poorly.

God, Collide was terrible stuff.

I ilke the idea that Calliope was bored and alone at the far-end of time, so she would doodle her fanart on the clouds of Skaia with Space powers. Since it's fanart of a story that is actually happening, that's why the clouds would show Prospit players glimses of the future.

She didn't have Skaia though. She died and was trapped at the literal end of time, waiting for what she perceived to be something out of the goddamn Jaunt, unable to talk to anyone or do anything but wait for her signal to then die.

Difference is that Aradia and Dave didn't need tools once they went god tier, whereas we still see LE using the Cairo Overcoat.

Homestuck would have been cool if it stuck to the game as a focus and setting, and had Caliborn happen much earlier. I think it'd be neat if the real Demon is that the kids managed to glitch Paradox Space bad enough to allow for a forbidden species to play the game, which fucked things up even more. It was neat to see the idea of godly creatures allowed to partake in a game that never ever wants something already so volatile and powerful to benefit from it.

i thought it was strongly implied that the fireflies were tied to muse calliope (and normal calliope less so). when john succeeds in his planet quest, muse calliope turns up shortly after. and there are a few other times they seem linked.

Which is fine when you have 4 minute flashes as your biggest ones, and the art team is just a handful of people.

Hussie had no idea what he was doing.

Where do you guys get these crazy calculations from?

LE is an equal mix of three (four?) souls, with Caliborn as the dominant personality.

>>83286085
Coincidence. While it WOULD be cool if Calliope's power as the ultimate Space-passive would be that she was actually there, subtly, right under English's nose all along, there for us to discover retroactively, as a contrast to his devastating and unnatural entry and slaughter of universes, there was just not enough at all supporting that.

Caliborn and Calliope are so clearly last-minute ideas in a comic that never needed them.

dirk and ar still seem to have had the heart to heart. vriska was just there behind him instead of gamzee when he made his decision

Terezi did in fact engineer Vriska coming back so she wouldn't fall for the clown and also so she wouldn't feel guilty for killing her.

Vriska didn't actually solve Rose's drinking problem.

Dirk and AR seem to have had their heart to heart, it was probably just Vriska there instead of Gamzee afterwards.

Hussie is an autist who grew up in a well-off family and holds a couple of software patents that have ensured that he's never had to do an honest day's work in his life (by his own admission, he's never had anything that could be characterized as a job)

He doesn't know anything about any kind of struggle

Yeah. In terms of trying to force the idea of this being the ultimate villain, the guy who was always here, the big bad who permeates the very comic, you need to actually set this shit up instead of riding out a single name mentioned in the Intermission years ago, and you need to do it without already having a shitload of decent villains to use in an already bloated cast

It may have been half the comic, but it still felt late and lazy and written poorly for the ideas presented

Andrew? Andrew Hussie? Is that you?

Andrew, I can't and won't make this any simpler for you.

You failed at life. You failed. When one thinks of what man is capable of, pushing himself to the limits physically, mentally and emotionally to achieve heights of success never before mentioned, your name will not be whispered in the same, reverent fashion that others have.

Nobody will remember Andrew Hussie. You aren't even a header or a footer in the career of someone else. You are nobody. Nothing. Nada. Zilch.

In short, you are an enormous failure.

Andrew, being that you're about 35 years old and your brain has probably hard-wired itself to accept such failures by now and write off such criticism by being "flippant", really suggests that you've passed beyond the proverbial breaking-point. There's no turning back. This is your career, this is what defines you and this is what you'll defend to the end.

The abhorrent failure that is MS Paint Comics, Andrew Hussie, that is your legacy.

Maybe I'm over-reaching, however. Who knows? People CAN change. Maybe you'll read this, Andrew, and think long and hard about what a wasteful life you've led. Maybe you'll think, "wow. It's incredible just how abysmal and pathetic I really AM!" Maybe you'll lift some weights in the morning. Maybe you'll take a self-help class.

Maybe in a couple of years, Andrew, you'll have learned from this failure. I doubt it, though.

I genuinely doubt it.

Now excuse me, I have to work on Undertale 2. My accountant estimates over sixty million dollars in sales.

dude's life and career is over, he blew it on 7 years of absolutely nothing anyone wants now

and the hilarious part is that he ACTIVELY DEGRADED over time, the comic literally made him worse than when he began

It'd be more sad if Hussie hadn't been such a stupid arrogant fuck, as it is, he's just earning what he put into this, and now he's gonna be an old man who made that Humsteaks once

See, that's all fine and good, but she had Kanaya the first time around, and that didn't help then. SOMEHOW, Vriska being present is the catalyst to all of their shit being worked out, despite a great deal of that shit being kind of her fault in the first place.

ALSO, I just realized how much it bugs me that Vriska basically acts completely differently to how she was acting after the Retcon. Like, she's suddenly the Vriska from when she was doing her whole quest to find the Juju again, but with no reason to be. No years or whatever of soul-searching and loneliness to lead her there.

God, I'm beginning to think Homestuck was a mistake.

It's just, there were so so many easy solutions around the idea

Hussie was so obsessed with his shallow and ugly video game lives idea that it rendered the entire cast meaningless, since death meant nothing, *and neither did life or choices*

It was the most lazy, slow-burn, badly written nihilist screed I've ever had the displeasure of having to choke down from some gangly self-assured twit

I don't get why with the retcon powers, everyone's lives couldn't have been saved, or like, something contrived through the Juju to make it so that paradox space collapsed into a single Alpha Timeline fresh over, with everyone suddenly becoming their everyself - every single ghost and doomed self and timeline just combining into a series of godselves to oppose English

I thought that was what Calliope was doing

She'd somehow glitch out time and fuck it up so suddenly all timelines became one, like a black hole for the concept of chronology instead of literally

Then 'ultimate self' would make sense and be pretty cool in a meta way, and draw back into the whole idea of it being a game parody, and everyone ends up with this incredible understanding of themselves and each other because now they're a million Johns or Karkats in a single self, achieving a sort of existence and meta understanding that Caliborn could only dream of

Instead, everyone is their 3rd or 4th iteration of themselves, nobody we started the comic with survived, and only a handful live while everything else in existence is messily erased

Space players being alone would have been a much more sweet and endearing metaphor if it used the idea of Space being this massive, powerful, vast darkness, with little points of light and life in it, making the encounters and relationships they do have much stronger and more precious when they do finally achieve them

Rose and Kanaya could have been very sweet with a whole "I've finally found my Sun" kind of thing going on with them, instead of "lol two drunk lesbeans"

why not just their original outfits? Signifying they've moved past the game, and onto something more, and are personified by their 'default' outfit, the one we started the comic with.

For an extra touch if needed, it could either have their God symbol on it instead, or, they could just have NO symbols at all, showing how they're complete and past the need for iconographic identity.

>Quick update on where I’m at. (TL;DR: Still haven’t given up on Homestuck yet, but damn it’s hard.)

>It’s 1 AM, I’m trying to go to sleep. As usual, my thoughts drift to Homestuck, whether I want them to or not. Except this time I think to myself… “Hey, it’s been a while. I’ve had time to heal. It already hurts a whole lot less. Why not try to think about Homestuck intentionally, accept the ending, and start to finally process things?”

>And so I think about it. And it seems alright! …For about three minutes.

>Then my thoughts drift to the Denizens. To how we saw so little of them. To how one being implied to be a “witch” and “not a snake” was all we’ll ever know about her besides a shitty silhouette. To the paltry few mostly-offscreen Choices that were made. To how Andrew seemed so blithely underconfident that he could do justice to their faces that the closest thing we ever saw to a Denizen’s actual face was that SHITTY Demon Mobster Kingpin ripoff Yaldabaoth sketchface in Collide.

>And then – THEN – I realize that not only did we never see Hephaestus, but his entire Choice, his entire epic repairing-one-thing SCHTICK, was absolutely and UTTERLY irrelevant to the plot in every single way. No payoff. He just fixed a shitty metaphor-sword. There’s no way to resolve that in the epilogue. It’s just permanently a thing that never mattered, forever.

Same. But it's clear why he did them, to have a simple, colorful, easy to draw outfit, and to abandon having to make any more new outfits.

For being such a loud and arrogant artist, Hussie sure did get dodgy and lazy about what made the work so neat to begin with.

If the kids were ever to be happy and free. I GET that.

>But I can’t fully buy the Unstuck and Unbound theory, no matter how much I want to. I can’t buy 100% into it without serious confirmation. (Especially not with so many theories busted to hell by the end already.) And whichever parts of me DON’T buy into Unstuck and Unbound, whichever parts doubt the ONE POSSIBLE JUSTIFICATION for Andrew throwing the whole fucking plot out the window and jump-cutting to an easy happy ending… those parts can’t help but be angry.

(Not that so many theories turned out wrong – that was always in the cards just from the nature of theorizing, part of the fun – but that there are NO FUCKING ANSWERS and everything is wrapped up by pure magic and nothing else, in a story that was so good about doing the exact opposite of that for its entire length.) He screws the SHIT out of you and all of your friends right before he leaves, vanishing with your money like a deflating Ponzi scheme, and has no intention to even write back to you about what he did (Epilogue) anytime soon. Is in no hurry to apologize, or even fucking justify himself. He just leaves behind a note saying “you figure it out”, and moves on to his next big thing (Hiveswap). And no matter how much you want to believe that he had the best intentions, no matter how much you believe he must have had a REASON, it’s impossible to believe with all your heart that that’s true. Not when he doesn’t even take the fucking time to say “I’m sorry”. (WHY did he have to say he’s not even in a hurry to do the epilogue? Why didn’t he even throw in an “I’m sorry, but” before he said it??!?) It’s impossible not to be angry. It’s impossible to try and forgive him on that unexplained, broken note. And it’s almost impossible to avoid the sense that all your good experiences with them in the past have been retroactively poisoned, the sense that you were utterly wrong about your friend having ever cared about you at all.

Yeah, but you're conflating the idea here, you need to keep it to something simple and symbolic. Brand new outfits would just splash another coat of paint onto something that should be a very simplistic message - their original clothes, sans symbols, as they achieve a chronological enlightenment of all selves in one, best represented by just being... them, and not what the game said, or others said.

Achieving that level of divinity and understanding of self shouldn't have flashy new costumes. It should just be "Hey, look, we're us, we're all we ever were and can be, we don't need flashy technicilor outfits, we're the simple plain #FFFFFF we started as, but instead of it representing a blank canvas for us to be colored on, we're now all those colors, all those experiences, all that prism'd backwards into that same #FFFFFF"

John retcons into hussie's study; as a result he develops an understanding of the nature of the homestuck universe, taps into the metanarrative to retrieve the ultimate selves of all of the protagonists, destroys english and all of paradox space in a spectacular violation of causality.

He still creates a universe, but it isn't part of paradox space, it replaces it. He creates a nice, simple universe with all of his friends and without any predestination bullshit.

still kind of a shitty ending but that's the best I can come up with

Vriska had Mindfang's cue ball, but Scratch couldn't tell because she lived next door to Equius, who had a void aura. Terezi told Scratch about the cue ball, knowing that Scratch would get pissed and take it out on Vriska. Scratch blew up the cue ball, taking an arm and an eye from Vriska.

She really wasn't, man. But she wasn't likeable in a way that you ENJOYED. She was snitty, snide, kind of fucked up, dangerous, irrational, clearly smart but had no common sense and a delusional outlook, but could be kind of sweet and cute in the moments we saw that others couldn't.

Her and Kanaya bitching one another could have been hella torrid and interesting, instead it was just the gravestone on both of them doing anything interesting ever again that wasn't Kanaya staring with a blank expression, or Rose being a goddamn moron.

Dave's Freudian slips always gave me hope.

Yeah because she was an angsty teen with a neglectful mother. Mom might not have been consciously trying to antagonize her, but she was very much an alcoholic and very much neglectful. It's a two-way street, and Rose was a child.

John and Roxy remain good. They're the two real people in a group of impostors. And Dave and Rose are both good when interacting with Roxy at least.

You got lucky with your faves. Imagine how it was to favor Karkat, Vriska, Terezi and Dave like I did.

No, I liked Dave a lot as a person at first, because you could see where he was coming from - he was the other side of the coin to Rose.

I REALLY liked Dave back when he was sort of a reversed irony, of a dude who was acting cool while afraid he really wasn't, but the joke was, he genuinely *was* cool with a few goober moments and hard introspectives, which made him endearing.

Rose was just an incredibly paranoid and hostile person trying to play it off as her being too cool and know it all to care, when she was fucking consumed with the idea nobody was genuine and out to get her. That was really funny and endearing too, AND had potential to get you to hate her in a way you like, like what Vriska managed to pull off once before.

>>83288000
You can't separate "dislike of character as a person" and "dislike of the character as a character", not my problem.

I can't see it.

Vriska was beneath Equius, so she wouldn't satisfy his authority fetish, but not low enough to satisfy his peasant fetish. Vriska rarely shows romantic interest in any troll except for the descendants of Mindfang's boyfriends, thanks to her sex journal.

Your other points weren't worth addressing, people like to forget that Rose was trying to deal with The Tumor, and was literally the only character in the comic to get torn up over her guardian's death (even though apparently she's a shitty daughter). John though, oh yeah, loves his pops! Stood there picking his nose over his dad's corpse and then went "aw shucks" when he realized he was gone for good. But we'll just ignore that because of memes.

Her alcoholism was brushed off as "poor Mom she was so sad" and the comic reinforced this idea because Roxy can do no good and she's perfect. On the other hand, Bro was evil because the comic told us so.

I'm more stupefied that you're still doing this, LB. Most livebloggers that do get to this point (which is such a small amount it makes me cry) give up.

Eugh, its vicariously painful seeing the reaction to the retcon. I only recently caught up to the ending; I can only imagine how terrible it must have been to get this after waiting for so long.

John/Terezi was a pleasant surprise though; I did quite like that.

Wow, I just realized that Hivebent was a replacement for the kids learning the intricate parts of Sburb themselves. Hussie made a whole new cast of characters to tell them everything they had to do so there was more time for shipping. Fuck you.

I have a bunch of horror short stories I'm working on to try to find a style I like, I'm running a long term game with friends, and a scattering of ideas for an actual novel I'm trying to whittle down, the one with the most meat right now being a simple surrealist story of an old dude who used to dark arts shit before he got out of the game, ended up with someone, lost her, and in his grief decides he can still at least have a child.

So like a drugged out heavily drinking fool looking to solve his problems by having a kid, he dark arts himself a child, and accidentally takes the spirit of a month, removing it from existence with long term consequence, and now has that month personified as a kid, and now had to deal with it.

See, that's bullshit though, because there's implications that they do their quests ANYWAY. John's whole deal just looped back into his quest and his destiny, and it's sort of implied so did Roxy's. But, no, only they get quests that fit outside of their singular instances of the game. Everyone else just kinda drops their quests despite the implication that they end up following them anyway without meaning to do so.

Not 100% sure yet. I'm leaning most towards November.

No, it does not. The story is sadly lacking in wicked sick tricks, SSS combos, pizza, and twin bothers trying to not fuck one another through their swords.

Actually I lied it will have pizza.

>None of this matters

The sooner you drop this mindset and accept that it was everything prior to Game Over that didn't matter, the better for your enjoyment.

People told you this repeatedly.

Also, insane and random as it was, I thought Rosesprite was great. The more from the Game Over timeline that survives, the better.
