In other words, "cool" art.
I don't think a thread will ever happen without those 3 though. I do hope that it does someday but I think you're being a bit idealistic.

I dreamed about Homestuck's ending last night, because I guess my subconscious forgot about the real one. What happened was the kids were somehow able to kill Lord English, leaving behind only his pool ball eyes. The last thing you see was Caliborn stumbling upon them. So that's why Paradox Space allowed English to be killed: it had to fulfill a timeloop of Caliborn gaining power in the first place, and English knew this, so he had to let it happen. And then the eyes being in that loop fits into being jujus.

>>88721917
bootstrap paradoxes don't work with objects that have time to age
>>88721930
I feel like Karkat being the head of a failed session is an important part of his character, but at the same time YEESH.
Like a way better ending for him would've been accepting that his focus on winning cost his friends their chance to develop as people, and maybe end up not as a great warrior or king but, dare I say, a patriarch for the surviving trolls, sort of an Abraham figure leading them through the void to a new world to start over. Something that acknowledges his failures but also that he was pretty much the best of his fucked up session of sociopaths and monsters.
>>88724265
Hussie had no clue what to do with him.
So, he turned the meteor trip into a shitty romcom and had all his romantic potential partners fuck Vriska instead.
And then Hussie castrated him harder after the retcon and turned him into Dave's bitch and support character.

Its gotten to the point where hearing homestuck music makes me feel kind of sick. Whenever I hear it on my phone I just start thinking about how it fell apart and I get this really ill feeling.
Should I just up and remove all my homestuck music? I'm honestly considering just wiping it all.
>>88731343
Just remember that the music team did nothing wrong, and it's not their fault Hussie messed up.
>>88730070
John is still the best character, and the only one with an inkling of a chance of getting a character ark that doesn't ruin him.

I don't understand. How did enough people want this to happen? There's no audience for this game. Hussie dissolved the Homestuck fanbase himself, and no one who was never a fan of the comic is going to go near it.
>>88732540

>>88725499
>Hussie had no clue what to do with <x>
Describes basically every Homestuck character. Dude could not stick the fucking landing with any of them. Maybe if he had fucking less of them there would've been time to actually show shit instead of just saying "IT WORKS OUT MOVE ON" but I honestly think maybe half the reason for the cast bloat was to obfuscate the fact that he lucked into how real the early logs felt.
>>88733138
>how real the early logs felt
some of them literally were real
>>88733138
>Dude could not stick the fucking landing with any of them.
what about sollux
>>88733138
I'm pretty sure we readers got the idea the characters in the comic were "interesting" or "complex" because they had very specific character voices, interests, text colors and typing preferences which contributed to differentiating them.
But the truth is, most of them were paper-thin. They had those "properties" I listed, but they did not have depth. Characterizing four main characters is already a hard task, so when the cast exploded in size, character depth became informed. We were shown increasingly less and told increasingly more. By the time the comic got to the alpha kids, it was over.
>>88732903
>Implying Trump isn't going to announce the switch from a 3D wall to a 2D fence, with "Part 1" of the "First half" running for a few kilometers before the entire project is silently abandoned

>>88733475
>most of them were paper-thin
Thing is, some of them weren't and when you have a cast of characters as fucking stuffed as Homestuck, you're bound to get some of them right.
Take Dave. He finally gets out of his brother's shadow, only to find that his powers give him a front row seat to Sburbs' rigid adherence to the timeline and is forced to play along as a slave to the timeline and occasionally watch himself die to stop his friends from barreling down a doomed timeline and dying for real. This leads to a self image that doesn't allow him to take the spotlight or attack problems directly, illustrated by his refusal to draw swords without breaking them, but he's strong enough and devoted to his friends enough to deal with it, accept the changes he's going through for the betterment of the team, and keep moving.
And then Hussie starts pandering to tumblr and suddenly all his character growth culminates in him being "gay".
Even the trolls had solid foundations, arcs, and relationships. Not all of them were satisfying, but that was the point. They were a failed game session and realized too late that Sburb challenges your character as much or more than your gaming prowess. Shit, I'd even defend the initial characterization of the alpha kids and having two sets of them join the game at asynchronous points in their timeline was pretty fucking smart and well handled, but the Ancestor trolls were fucking garbage without exception and everything the characters did from their introduction onward was fucking boring and drawn out for no reason, and then the retcon fucking sealed the deal on Homestuck's shittiness.
The twist was that Sburb maintained a rigid timeline that killed you if you deviated from it, but lead to a "canon" loss for both humans and troll players. The 3rd act (metaphorically speaking) should have been about overcoming that inevitability while growing as people, but instead we just got more fucking people and a cop out.
>>88727739
How
>>88734015
Homestuck's popularity has dropped, that doesn't mean it isn't totally dead. Even 40k hits in an hour would put it pretty high.
>>88734015
So, even if someone made a "Raping a Grandma Simulator" that had entirely "no" votes, it could go up on Steam anyway if it was popular?
>>88734046
>his past history
Where?
We still don't know jackshit about his childhood.
>inb4 Act 5.1 is his backstory and not just Vriska and Aradia's story
>>88734790
The only quality control Steam does is check for respect of terms of service and community guidelines.
>Grandma rape simulator
This would get taken down at some point
>Babby's first project in Unity where you can shoot an ugly gun at floating images of Pepe the frog that reset the game when they hit the player
This has a decent chance to go through.
>>88727575
>davepeta is most likely gone forever.
>Alpha Vriska might be gone forever
Thank fucking god.
>>88734194
This is a good look at a bunch of problems, which really comes down to Hussie's infatuation with denying expectations. That's fine to a point, but when that's all you fucking do its not surprising or insightful, its just, well, expected.
For what its worth I think the beta kids were all good characters with the potential to have been GREAT characters if Hus had let them interact with each other more. Rose and Jade especially could've had an amazing arc together-they literally switch spiritual roles as both embrace their classes, how do you not wring some drama from that?!
The Alphas could've been good if handled better but then it became tumblr: the fucking arc.
>>88735298
(Vriska) was the Vriska that had character development, anon.
It doesn't matter if you liked her or not. She's the better written one.
>>88735474
Yeah but her story was over.
Like she got what she fucking deserved, and it was good! She died at a GOOD point in the story! She was done! Finished! Fini! Dunzo! And killing her was a GREAT moment for Terezi to show that she was actually fucking serious about justice instead of just playing a little girl game with people's lives like Vriska was, that she had learned a lesson from her trying to kill John and fucking around with Dave's head after all.
Vriska was a great villain but her time was finished and bringing her back wasn't just a sign of Hussie having no fucking idea what to do, it reads as Terezi actively regressing and allowing a cancerous personality that turns everything into being about her to turn the comic into being about her again.
>>88735645
>Terezi
>Justice
And I don't bother reading your post
>>88735474
>(Vriska)
>better-written
>instead of Mindfang, she latches on Meenah now
>>88735474
(Vriska) isn't Alpha Vriska.
>>88735371
>. Rose and Jade especially could've had an amazing arc together-they literally switch spiritual roles as both embrace their classes, how do you not wring some drama from that?!
because hussie can't write female interactions unless they hate each other. He can't write females as just friends and certainly cant write them in relationships
>>88736098
It boggles my mind because pretty much every fan Rose and Jade writer who lets them be friends has them end up being fucking hilarious together.
Like literally all you have to do is let Rose unclench slightly around Jade and the comedy flows.
>>88736297
>let Rose unclench slightly around Jade
Gross
>>88735474
>She's the better written one.
a character showing a change in personality does not automatically make them well-written
not all characters need to "develop" into something else
>>88735371
>they literally switch spiritual roles as both embrace their classes
you know, to this day, I think that Hussie probably intended for Rose to be Witch of Space and Jade to be Seer of Light, but decided to switch it up at the last second to keep the readers on their toes
>>88736860
nah I mean their order in the book is the order in which they are introduced
>>88736297
rose only unclenches around her girlfriends tentabulge, not jades dog dick
>>88736860
That was actually a cool idea though, the class being something you grow into instead of something you start out being suited to.
>>88735474
(Vriska) is a Vriska that failed to develop in such a spectacular fashion that she imploded into nothingness. What's more, her previous development regressed off screen. To speak nothing of the tortures shit stains that are literally any of her conversations with Meenah, which are a whole other can of worms.
Vriska simply regressing after the retcon is awful, but it is substantially less thorough and unenjoyable compared to the burning trash heap that is (Vriska).

Say what you will, but Hussie was never good at writing social interactions. Complex puzzles were his forte, and he should've fucking kept to it.
>>88739472
Poor girl

Is the second one from the left Toby?
>>88699821
Shipping is what the comic itself is about a lot of the time though. And it certainly seems to attract autism, realistically.
How to write a "reluctant villain" type of character:
First, they commit acts of horrible evil.
Then they leave a note about how they don't actually want to be a villain.
After that they commit acts of horrible evil.
Be careful not to show any remorse or hesitation! It's words that matter, not actions.
>>88739771
Yes
>>88739880
Well, it attracts tumblr, which is pure autism in social media form.

Man the new Homestuck cast looks so diverse
REMINDER THAT VRISKA A FUCKING SHIT
Why the fuck does John not even care he basically replaced all his friends with copies?
>>88741955
Why do you think he's basically stopped bothering to interact with any of them or function in the new world he's created?
He did his job and made sure there's a new universe. He was also an idiot and repeated his very first mistake and listened to Terezi fucking Pyrope and is suffering for it, forever, until he finally dies in battle with the evil Lord English, starting the whole thing over again because he never figured out a glitch to properly kill the fucker.
What is, in actuality, the worst Homestuck fanart you've ever seen?
>>88742347
Any Davekat fanart
Any Tumblr fanart overrated by the community, see: Shelby, Ikimaru etc.
Anything Gelasticat shits out
>>88742347
For real?I saw an image set where mom strips baby Rose naked and then stomps on her to death in graphic detail.
>>88742389
I don't mean bad like that, I mean like "I need to call the police on this artist" or "dear god what the fuck" bad.
>>88742444
Then unironic gore art and anything Gelasticat shits out
>>88742413
Yeah pretty much anything that's homestuck guro lolicon, of which there's unfortunately a small amount of.
Mom doing it to Rose sounds especially fucking awful. Mom loved Rose.
>>88699826
you think after game over people would have made more of these end of eva parody's.
>>88742554
there were a lot already
>>88742494
If Mom was such a good babysitter to Joey and Jude, why did Rose turn out so bad
>>88742629
The stress of losing her siblings drove her to drink, ruining her previous streak of being good with children.
>>88741907
Karkat is shittier than her!
>>88700379
Why does John look like Jemaine from Flight of the Conchords?
>>88742983
Cause he's so shiny.
>>88742983

karkat so bad even the dead girls who want to fuck him never actually do
>>88743166

Vriska can't keep getting away with it...
Soon she is going to fuck Dave and Jade as well...
>>88744169

>>88744718
Honestly who doesn't fuck dave and jade?
>>88744812
Karkat.
>>88739892
I'm angry because this is exactly how Hussie wrote Vriska (especially the words-not-actions thing, it's all more of his tell-don't-show bullshit)
Everyone hailed it as genius writing back in the day but it always struck me as the most trite bullshit ever.
>>88736860
He said as much on Formsprang
>Why does Rose get seer of light and Jade Witch of space? Typo on origional document resolving in no ability to change? They even switched parts for pete's sake!
>whereas the word "origional" clearly remains typo-free!
>let's consider a world for a moment where your expectation for a certain outcome is the precise reason why that outcome has not come to pass.
>CONSIDER THAT WORLD. CONSIDER IT I SAY.
>>88739170
>John beating Jasprose with his copy of Colonel Sassacre's
Probably the only genuinely good part in this comic
>>88742066
Wowzers! The writing is so shitty that it bends backwards and it becomes coherent in its own shittiness!
>>88734194
>And then Hussie starts pandering to tumblr and suddenly all his character growth culminates in him being "gay".
Just because that's all he is to some people doesn't mean that's all he is.
>comic didn't end with John fucking Calliope
>>88745508

No, fucking. Making love to, even.
>>88734194
>I'd even defend the initial characterization of the alpha kids and having two sets of them join the game at asynchronous points in their timeline was pretty fucking smart and well handled, but the Ancestor trolls were fucking garbage without exception and everything the characters did from their introduction onward was fucking boring and drawn out for no reason, and then the retcon fucking sealed the deal on Homestuck's shittiness.
Hey, my feelings about Homestuck exactly.
The comic became shit after the Kickstarter. You can tell that after that point everything is a obligation to Hussie, and that he's just making pages to fill the quota. It's incredibly dull. I liked the Alpha kids a lot back in the day, and I still feel they could have been great characters.
>>88745508
>comic didn't end
what i hate most about homestuck's ending is how we never got to find out what function is served by troll boobs
>>88746117
They are meant to tease and frustrate the reader.
Just like everything else in the comic.
>>88746117
Pillows
>>88746117
They're meant to lure in and kill potential prey.
>>88746029
Yellow really is not Jade's color
>>88746526
It kind of is because she's a Prospit dreamer.
>>88746532
I meant that it doesn't look good on her.
>>88740592
Solatrus, plazmataz, astro kid and tavia morra.
>>88746526
Neither is roses but the author didnt think when making the color for vriska and here we are.
Never forget
So what was the deal with the "glitches and exploits in spacetime"? The only genuine glitch I remember is Midnight Crew's cards turning into miscellaneous objects.
I know the concept got showed under a rug, but it was really interesting to me, and I'd like to hear your ideas.
>>88747188
My expectations were that it was going to be referring to paradoxical time loops that manage to continue to exist due to various mechanics.
The big one was that I thought was that LE was going to snake fuck another version of himself for all eternity, as neither would ever run out of energy, ever give up, and never be touched by paradox space on account of his position as lord of time, and the Cairo Overcoat.
Instead it was literally nothing.
>>88747364
Cool idea, I'm stealing it.
>>88747364
It makes me wonder why Hussie wrote in an explanation for cherub reproduction considering it was completely irrelevant.

Hey, piggy killed mspaforums, not me. But are you seriously asking me to submit a several post long explanation onto an image board? How many people even go on these threads any more? 50?
>>88747597
Breath uses freedom, just as much as it used the wind, and confidence in tavros. But freedom was never the goal of the aspect, story direction was. It's simultaneously the dm who says hey you guys are free to do whatever you want, then regardless of what you did you end up in the same spot. Besides, john was the heir, which made him the tool of others freedom. He gave terezi the freedom to fuck up their entire timeline by getting him killed, then gave her the freedom later on to retcon all of reality and change the direction the story took.
>>88747825
Then don't.
>>88739892
if homestuck were better written, lord english wouldn't even be a villain, much less the final boss
the actual antagonists would be the characters who exploit english to rationalize the atrocities they commit
it kind of looked like Homestuck was going in this direction after the Aranea arc, but... Vriska went ahead with the ghost army plan anyway? Homestuck is so morally confused
>>88747856
>>88747488
what the fuck are you doing
is this theorycrafting
why are you theorycrafting here
>>88747856
Oh Christ, it's that fucking tabletop thing. I thought it was just an unfunny "what if" sort of thing. Like King of the Online patch notes, but more autistic.
Well sure, you seem to be straying kind of far from the source material, but so long as it's in service to game mechanics, that's fine. That is it's purpose, yes?
>>88747976
Yep. It feels absolutely heretical to break from Canon, but also homestuck is an unexplained, unfinished mess of a webcomic.
I'm a simple man. All I wanted to do is play a game. The fact that ive had to make one from scratch to play it is the quest given to me.
Blood = Cuckolding
Is this true?
>>88747118
God, just imagine that conversation taking place. It actually happened for real.
>Hey Mr. Hussie can I draw porn of the beekeeper troll
>Uh. Yeah sure.
>>88747188
>>88747472
Like a lot of similar details, these were vague hints of plot Past Andrew intentionally left for Future Andrew to interpret and make a creative callback plot point out of.
I don't think he had something clear in mind. But glitches definitely came up during Retcon Quest, and I personally thought LE would be defeated in a very clearly meta way.
>>88747488
Sounds neat. How's development coming along overall?
>>88747118
this person is a caricature
I think it is a mistake to hire fans to work on the project that they are fans of
they might try to build cred by self-inserting and then drawing porn of themselves as their self-insert
>>88749869
Bullshit, sonic mania is looking good and that AoE2 expansion was made by fans. You just gotta know who to hire.
>>88749869
When it comes to hiring people, there are good fans (e.g. various members of the music team) and bad fans just like there are good non-fans and bad non-fans (e.g. Cohen)

Threadly reminder that if you liked homestuck from a production value perspective (world building, creativity and characters), you would do a good deed to yourself if you read Wildbow's web novel, Worm.
>>88751041
hottie
>>88747488
Is there anything visual yet? Because from this I have no idea what you are talking about
>>88751164
That isn't what production values mean.
>>88751362
"the technical quality of such a method"
such methods being, for example, the ones in parentheses
>>88751164
So is there one guy shilling worm really hard, or do lots of people really think this can fill the void?
>>88751164
I finished Worm a few weeks ago and I've just now moved on to Pact. So far (just the first arc) it's very engrossing, has a better start than Worm did. I was surprised, considering that Wildbow thinks it's weaker overall.
>>88751580
It's a super long serial with a lot of intricate parts. That's basically where the similarities with Homestuck end, but if that's what you're looking for, it can fill the void.
>>88751655
I can attest that there are multiple people and I've seen more than one person on forums and the like with homestuck profile pictures talking about it too.
I started reading it because some guy recommended Nora, that girl on tumblr who was doing a reaction/reading blog, to read it.
>>88751414
No idjit, production values refer to the overall quality of work removed from the artistic or creative elements of the core experience.
It's usually used in reference to film, for things such as set design, wardrobe, lighting, video quality, etc.
Homestuck has notably low production values. Hell, the site is named after MS paint.
>>88751847
Makes sense, I had the wrong definition in mind, it sounded right in a roundabout way since what I meant was that "it's some made-for-free in the internet" thing that is better than a lot of expensive stuff out there. In both (forgetting Act 6 except for Caliborn) they are good in characters, creativity be it in powers and deconstructing common tropes, and in worldbuilding.
I get it that its the wrong use though.

This word has officially lost all meaning. It doesn't even mean "not a liberal" anymore.
>>88700423
I've said it before, but I'll say it again, and again, and again. I loved Homestuck's use of clashing styles and found photos/images photoshopped into the scene. Like this picture for example. It's what really stood out about the art to me.
Where are the Kanayaposts
>>88759047

Worm girl (forgot her name) will stop at nothing to save humanity, but even if you think speciesism is the same as nationalism, she's still not fascist, because she doesn't have pride in humans. She wants to save them despite being ashamed of them. There's dialogue about this. It is NOT subtle.
>>88759705
I know what you're talking about but I'm not convinced. She has contempt for humans (as a species) because they won't work together and do what she says. That's her only problem with humanity, so she takes over by force. I'm sure most fascist leaders feel a similar contempt for dissent in their own ranks.
