What the hell happened to megatokyo

>>90353774
The author Piro was crushed under the weight of his own pretentiousness.
Largo was reborn as FPS Doug.

>>90353894
Isnt there also a VN coming out at a time?
And can you elaborate on
>The author Piro was crushed under the weight of his own pretentiousness.

Shameless bump

He stopped drawing 10 years ago

>>90354710
Really? who draws it now?

>>90353774
It's a comic strip that managed to outlast the cultural zeitgeist it both aped and appealed to, combined with slow and erratic update schedule and in-comic pacing that makes Bendis look overly compressed and rushed.

>>90354756
No one, he just vomits on the page and uploads that

>>90354993
I can see that
Also i think the inclusion of all the anime girls is when it started going downhill

Fred-chan is cute.

It's always had an insanely slow pace. I never really cared for it, but goddamn does it make me nostalgic for the early 00s indie comic/manga scene.

>>90355198
I remember it being slow, but it really started to kill my interest after that one girl who owned the goth night club drama came to a close

>>90355276

Who, Miho? That's done now? Seriously??

>>90355318
Think so, Largo is with that other girl now
dont quote me on it though because its been a while

>>90354005
He basically took over the comic, kicked Largo out and turned it into the shitty harem anime he always wanted to make or whatever.

>>90355352

Interesting. I haven't checked it at all in four or five years so presumably your information is better than mine.

>>90355393
Yeah i started to notice that after the zombie attack arc. And there was that fellow who kills largo while his gf is kissing him saying somthing about a rival and never going anywhere

>>90355434
Yeah Mioh gets Largo drunk and bitches to him about his personallity or somthing, Piro then Finds out and Bitches at her for "taking advantage of him" then they leave the bar and she gets replaced by a fox girl

>>90355436
*kills him in a videogame
is what i meant
Also Love how the Sega And Sony Hitmen had one skit then got thrown out

>>90355481

Ah yeah. The very last pages I see included that fox girl.

>>90353774
One of the easiest comics for me to burn out on, sadly. It's so damn mopey.

>>90355577
yeah she doesn't really have that much of a personality. Mostly just gets in fights with junpei and largo in the background while Piro sulks

>>90355609
Yeah Piro Does love to sulk around and feel sorry for himself

>>90353774
Largo quit and Piro turned it into a dating sim that managed 1 page/6 months.

THEY MOVED TO JAPAN TO GET THE PS2 EARLY.

>>90355393
He didn't "kick Largo out", Rodney got married and Fred was on the cusp of suicide on a weekly basis, so he fled.

>>90355930
Wait i thought they Largo booked them a flight because Piro was sad or some shit then get stuck there

I used to LOVE this comic. The vibe was so calming.

>>90353774
Jesus christ I haven't read Megatokyo since, like, 2006?

>>90357607
Yeah its pretty old, I never see it get discussed around here

y'all know this comic upated like 2 days ago, right? it's not actually dead despite still reading like something that should have died 10 years ago. fred still supports his family on megatokyo money, he even just started a patreon.

>>90355122
But Chris is clearly best boy.

I stopped reading shortly after the newly minted magical girl got rid of the zombie zilla.
I could live with the pacing, because I enjoyed it, but the wait for a new page was insufferable.

Largo and his love interest were great, I recall.

Christ, I stopped reading Megatokyo in... 2005? The last thing I remember, Largo had somehow become a substitute teacher and maybe there was a robot fight. So, whenever that was. Who fucking knows. I can't believe I stuck with it as long as I did.

>>90353774
The actual creator had his creation stolen by a depressed weeb.

>>90360026
It's amazing (and disgusting) how there's a diehard clinging audience for even the worst outdated lazy trash so hacks like Fred can live off the stuff.

>>90353774
the guy that draws it got rid of the guy who writes jokes and it turned into a weird sad harem story and everybody stopped reading it and also the guy that draws turned out to be kind of a perv
