What went so wrong, lads?
yoko ono
>>94244108
The main problem is that Homestuck threads aren't ban offenses at this point.
>>94244222
go back to your dozen gwenpool threads
>>94244108
IMO Act 5 and even early Act 6 had their strong points. I think the comic could have easily been redeemed at any point BEFORE A6A6A1. That's when the comic really jumped the shark for good.
>>94244108
It thought it was way too clever.
My Homestuck lore is weak, but isnt that around the time the fanbase really took off and he started surroundinv himself with collaborators and "community?"
Some artists nees to be reeled in, but not Hussie. His greatest talent comes from his own insanity. Once he started working with other people, got a girlfriend, and had a huge audience, I feel he started to censor himself and was subconsciously trying to please to many people rather than just writing for himself.
>>94244585
Andrew started dating Rachel at the point where Eridan killed Kanaya and Bec Noir killed Mr. Egbert and Ms. Lalonde. This is also when the update rate massively dropped.
The highest rate of updates is centered at the point where Equius and Robo-Aradia kiss.
The entirety of Homestuck takes place within the dream of the pony from Jailbreak. Horuss is the avatar of the slumbering Godhead.
>>94244108
*Act 6
>>94244585
Strangely enough, that same lore is the reason why a LOT of fans were so engrossed in Homestuck. How did he manage to reel in so many lorefags with such empty worldbuilding? What's the secret?
>>94244108
Dunno, I got kinda lost at that part with the assassins.
>>94245049
>What's the secret?
Loose threads and popularity.
It's like Darksouls if you're familiar with that. It doesn't really have any lore, it just has a theme. People think it has to have lore, because the setting is so in depth, but it doesnt. Same with Homestuck. The setting is really developed, but nothing is explained. It's shallow. Wide as an ocean deep as a puddle. The side effect of this is people become convinced that the lore exists and try to piece it together themselves. Which is why Homestuck was so popular, not only with shippers, but with fan fiction and conspiracy writers as well. We'll never get to see any fruit to half of Homestuck's plot devices, but we weren't meant to.
If the series wasn't so popular, people would bash it for bad writing, but because it's popular, it lends credibility to the whole shebang.
>>94245561
Katnep is dum8.
I still can't believe how the ending turned the human kids so pointless, the trolls did literally 99% of the job.
I unironically love all of Homestuck, even the retcon. It's the best story I've ever read or seen. Fight me
>>94246143
>Fight me
There are serious criminal laws against assaulting minors
i am glad that hussie wrote it, even though it kind of trailed off at the end.
So anyone got subtle/hidden connections or eastereggs someone might miss?
I want more of that stuff
>>94246689
Anything that exists like that has already been covered, and nothing really came about like that in the later stuff because Hussie stopped caring.

Davepeta, Vriska and Terezi are killed at the end unless seen otherwise. I think theres nothing else because it all went away with retcon.
>>94246862
this will always be the canon ending.

Then you pretty much have to delete any thread that isn't discussing an ongoing series.
>>94244222
Yeah act 5 was fine it was act 6 that was like a tumor and interrupted the flow of the story. Acts 1 - 5 handled all the relationshippy stuff that the story didn't really need but it has anyways, there was no reason to have more of it especially with cringey characters like Jane. Act 6 and onwards was a key point to flush out more of the lore in the homestuck universe, and while it did happen, particularly during the intermissions, so much time was wasted setting up the new brand of kids that it just became a chore to read. It also didn't help that the author wrote himself into a corner (which honestly surprises me considering the hero to villain ratio was definitely favored for the good guys in terms of numbers) and had to cheat the system in order to wrap up his story.
>>94246946
I didn't mean to reply to that anon fml
>>94244108
I think I know a way Hussie could have fixed it . The big problem is that there ARE TOO MANY FUCKING TROLLS. So I think he should have cut the amount in half by fusing the trolls together give like for instance my picture note wouldn't have to be her in the story but it works. Pre-Scratch her is more like Aradia and post-scratch her would be more like Vriska. That way the 12 actually important trolls still exist in some form. Now I don't know who would be fused but cutting it from 12 to 6 would improved it.
>>94246898
The canon ending is that you've wasted almost 10 years on this fuckin cesspool of TRASH that you'll NEVER get back.
Suck on that for a while.

I think Hussie was just fucking around by the end. He introduced three full troll sets into the story.
>>94247047
I am a guy who cosplayed as John for a chick dressed as Terezi and sadly didn't get anything from her
>>94247156

And you listened to her
>>94247201

I like Equius, he’s a fun character, but he arguably did deserve what he got. Basically, he failed completely to move past his racism and died for it, as well as ending up getting Nepeta killed.
His death was character appropriate, wasn’t random and it was karmic. If Homestuck had any decently written character arcs, it was Equius. But the eternal irony is that he was a joke character that Hussie had no intention of using for long.
>>94247283
Hussie is at his best when being funny, which post-retcon, he wasn't.
>>94247283

This Kanaya is indeed of considerable coolness.
John is pretty cool

>>94247808
ALL Kanayas are
>>94247812
What is john doing to that green space chick
>>94247868
Good point.
>>94247956
You know I've never considered it but John and Kanaya together is kinda cute with him pranking her
>>94247956
Getting her pregnant, it's standard John procedure
>>94248076
Trolls cannot have human babies.
>>94248076
So does he just nut on the spikey orb?
>>94248015
Kanaya Lightening up when ever John cracks a joke or two while also being Genuinely nice to her.
I can see it!
>>94247985
I like how Andrew drew Kanaya early on. Around 5.2 he started drawing her differently. I think that's when he started giving trolls huge bug eyes
>>94248015

>>94248400
It was quite peachy.
>>94248400
I remember a lot of things.
>>94248420
He won the most decisive battle in his life.
>>94248494
Don't forget that this victory was PIS.
>>94248414
You know
there are lots of headcanons in Tumblr where Jade is supposed to be a trans woman.
>>94248542
How does that make any sense
>>94248571
I think is because the dog was male
>>94248587
She has to be a girl, but with a dog weiner than.
>>94248571
Does Tumblr make sense?
>>94248494
The Nepetabowl?
>>94247497
>that smuppet butt
>>94248587
But that wouldn't make sense either. Jade grew up on an island, why would she even have an idea of this concept.
>>94248494
>Karkat is so ineffectual that he can't be countered by luck.
He's literally "getting drubbed by a newspaper" made flesh.
>>94248140
Kanayas color scheme used to be gray and green, after cascade became gray and red like karkat, seriously that dress cover her all
One good thing about andrews autism is you can tell which character and pairings got good writing based on color theory
>>94247317
Wouldnt he call it a blender? Highbloods call appliances by their actual name, mostly lowbloods use ablution trap and shit
>>94248898
don't question it
>>94248813
>he can't be countered by luck
Karkat is stronger than Mindfang, Aranea and Vriska combined?
Holy shit...
>>94248954
Yeah, but then they can just push him over.
>>94244222
There's no point in Hotpockets even putting in a token appearance and deleting Homestuck threads anymore. Look at the /co/ catalog. Look at all these threads with under 10 posts in them. We are all dying.
>>94248988
hsg is still banned, have to really space out the threads. Not like there is anything new to talk about anyway. everything is dead and theres not going to be a game
>>94249036
There was an interview, with someone who actually shipped JohnRoxy
>>94246143
I think it is the best story I've ever read or seen, but that is in spite of the retcon, not including it, and I'll never be able to forgive Hussie for wasting his unique and tremendous potential.
>>94249066
nobody is fucking talking about it, it's all reposts and image dumps and the same bullshit "is act 5 the end?" posts that have been going on for over a year
>>94249036
You can always talk about the fancomics and literally rewriting A6 which im still waiting for someone to do.
>>94249092
Why should anyone give a fuck about some random guy's taste?
I bet you would fucking scream in rage if the guy claimed to like Davekat.
>>94248145
no, john with both of them, like the guy who created wonder woman.
Homestuck makes me so sad.
It really was something special, and it turned into trash. I just...want the good times back.
There are plenty of better written stories, but nothing was ever like Homestuck, and 17776 was too short.
>>94248414
i think it's supposed to be an aesthetic standard that is ugly, but not in the way most actual people are. so it does the "fuck your beauty standards" thing, but not in a way that reminds them of their actual insecurities.
>>94249329
I'm very much dying to know why Hiveswap isn't out yet. They said it would be a few more weeks in January, so what the actual fuck happened that changed this so drastically?

>Status of Hiveswap: the game is just about done. It could still use some more testing to be absolutely certain we are not releasing a buggy piece of shit! To that end it will be worth waiting another several weeks or so
several weeks
>I've been working with some people on another thing, which will need to be announced when it is ready
And next week its another interview so dont expect it to come.
>>94249751
Who do they even have left to interview
>>94249751
I really wish they would just release a buggy mess in January instead of ALL OF THIS WAITING
>>94249797
xamag i think.
>>94249813
But buggy mess will be memed so hard like ME: Andromeda it will never recover
>>94249813
I've always wanted the game to come out, because I want Hussie and Cohen to see with their own eyes how no one gives a shit about it.
>>94249813
why? hsg is still banned. /vg/ doesn't allow homestuck
>>94249855
Unfortunately it was top greenlight game in a single day, there's still interest.
>>94249949
But
How
>>94249970
How could it not be? There's still an interest in Homestuck, even if people were disappointed in the ending.
Who would make the best Prototyping
>>94250095

Some speculate Toby's gonna be interviewed considering how hard they've been clinging to "music by the actual godsend of video games himself, Toby "Jesus Christ" Fox."
Its saddening to see how much they're riding on Undertale dredging even the smallest cursory amount of interest to Hiveswap to make it relevant again.
>>94250663
I remember when Homestuck was going on that people didn't like radiation.
>>94250663
Protip: this doesn't work
Toby's girlfriend tried to funnel Undertale fans into her mediocre webcomic and it failed
>>94244108
the problem is tweens, they were never meant to be the target audience, it was always suppose to be young adults who grew up with point and clicks and rpgs. homestuck was suppose to be a parody of all the video game rpgs about kids leveling up, dealing with convoluted game mechanics and story, and becoming godtier slaying badasses that we grew up with in the snes and playstation days. THEN the trolls came, as a parody at first, and gave an easy to copy/paste character designs not unlike sonic and other cookie cutter fandom. their personalities are extremes of their signs. it attracted the tween tumblr fandom (" omg the same age as ME, IM the target audience"), lacking in self awareness or shame, proceeded to ship the fuck out of everything in all four quadrants. this set the ball of shit rolling. no matter how much hussie shits on them, they dont realize theyre being made fun of, only that its so funny. he tries pushing them away because it was never meant for them. they didnt care until hussie crosses the line with CAUCASIAN! but probably dont realize how bad they were made fun of with caliborn and the trickster episode. they tween dont care what he does. they dont care that over half the trolls are trash. they dont even care if hussie shits on them directly. as long as he doesnt TRIGGER anybody they dont care. they only care about shipping bullshit.
>>94250756
Really what comic?
>>94244108
The comic has no middle. It's beginning and end. At no point do the original cast confront their own inner conflicts and come up with solutions for them. They're just sort of hand-waved away with game stuff. As a result the story is extremely unsatisfying. The trolls actually have way, way more character development than the originals. The ending feels hollow.
>>94250799
Cucumber Quest
>>94250816
Oh! That! Right, I remember that.
>>94250816
Oh shit I didn't know tobby was dating her, I thought that comic was already popular iv'e seen it on /co/

>filename: its a metaphor for homestuck
>no one dies
>>94250855
Neither of them talk about in public but they flirted too much over Twitter and she accompanied him to Spain alone to receive a video game award so people figured it out and it explained a lot about her relationship to Undertale itself
It has a decent following but it's never broken into the big leagues and it's going to take 10 years to finish in spite of how hard she works on it
So I'm phoneposting at a con right now as a Steven Universe panel and a Homestuck panel are happening at the same time, and I had to compare for reference purposes. Make of this subjective data what you will.
Here's Steven.
>>94250896
Death is irrelevant in Homestuck
>>94250855
Wait, what threads did you see where /co/ liked it? I thought /co/ hated it other than the first chapter where it was basically all joke and no real plot yet.
>>94250900
And here's Homestuck.
>>94250900
>>94250930
My takeaway from this is Steven Universe paid too much for their room. The Homestucks kept expectations and costs low, they know what they're doing.
>>94250923
/co/ hates it because the author deleted all her funny meme vidya comics out of spite and they never got over it
but it also came to light in the past 3 years or so that her writing is not great and that didn't help
>>94250969
So there weren't any threads that liked it. It was never popular on /co/.
>>94250900
Is that a coffin?
>>94251017

>>94251017

>Wait, what threads did you see where /co/ liked it? I thought /co/ hated it other than the first chapter where it was basically all joke and no real plot yet.
Idk I think around the time that one of the characters was cross dressing as an anime girl or some shit, and another time in which a character was trans
>>94251066
The trans character was a hilarious series of foibles on the author's part. Get this, and I'm not shitting you in any way, the trans villain's power is using the birth names of certain characters against them magically.
>>94250930

>>94251122

>>94244108
It was at Act 5 that the focus of the comic shifted from "four kids playing a game" to "high school drama central". All the dumb Tumblr tween shit started getting more and more frequent on the pesterlogs until it completely replaced the game discussions, and so the meta elements became irrelevant. So much so that the commands and narration were entirely removed after the first 3rd of Act 6.
Kanaya is for lewd
>>94251089
The trans character is also a master of deceiving people and the author flipped her shit when she realized that was actually a harmful stereotype.
>>94251203
>MFW The author bamboozles herself

I feel as though the reason SU got a bigger room because they've got more people on the panel. Homestucks surely got to know each other (assuming they already didn't) better so that's nice for them.

If the dick is Hiveswap then that guy is shooting blanks.
Also given that Joey has daddy issues hardcore how big of a slut is she, realistically speaking?
>>94253907
Dogs are too big
Plus she was giving them a place to hide from the rain outside
>>94253939
>Dogs are too big
NONSENSE!
JADE CAN MAKE HER ASS AS BIG AS A HOUSE
>>94253939
Why are you the way you are, Director?

Did you come from hsg?
>>94253985
Yes
>>94253989
Brother!
I wrote for those threads
long long ago
>>94253925
Jake's genes make everyone want to fuck you, not the other way around.
>>94244108
trolls were a mistake
>>94254001
I miss them still
>>94254025
We all do
it hurts how hollow the threads became overtime
>>94253885
kek
>>94254009
Explain John then, Jade and Jake are at least sex magnets but John had the in-universe appeal of toast.
>>94254063
It's a recessive gene. Jade got it, John didn't.
I love all of you kinky motherfuckers
>>94254123
You two bro
Is Kanaya still a virgin, or a "virgin" ?
>>94254133
I wonder how Dave would feel if Jade had a double wide ass and a double wide anus
>>94254157
off by one
>>94254173
It's irrelevant, they don't call her Jade "In the puss or in the ground" Harley for nothing. You want Terezi for buttslutness
I hate that artist who keeps drawing jade like a man
>>94254157
god bless glub
>>94254231
good hateship.
>>94254240
You're the same nerd who keeps pushing this, go away
she is a buttslut
who likes it doggystyle
>>94254244
which
>>94254244
that's a lot of people
>>94254244
That would be Gelasticat, who is actually incapable of drawing girls.
>>94254266
big brown sideburns
someone posted a picture of their art in the thread
>>94254265
Please, Jade's as much a buttslutt as Rose is a size queen, or Jane the kind of girl who likes consensual sex.
>>94254297
She enjoys it up both holes
But having her puffy puppy pucker pounded for long periods of time really activates her almonds
>>94254291
see
>>94254275
who should have posted pic related
>>94254275
>when people actually said her art was good and she was just drawing bad intentionally
>>94254317
GLEH
ROTTEN
>>94254313
If she REALLY enjoyed it in the ass why would she go for Dave?
You think Dave can really do butt stuff after all the smuppets?
>>94254353
oh shit
I should get this artist to do giant-ass stuff with jade
but what to get...
>>94254353
It doesn't *matter* what Dave wants. Dave doesn't get a choice, all he gets is held down.
>>94254383
This is true
>>94254380
I see they're both dreaming about Hiveswap
Lawsuit when?
>>94254019
This image is still retarded until it removes the shit about jade using a sword
HAHAHAHAA
>>94254157
Nice censorship
>>94254576
well hussie did more or less scrape the strife specibus and other game abstrata he spent the first 5 acts establishing
take it with a grain of salt anon
>>94254646
Because they reached godtier and got the badges necessary for not needing to use them. Its like you fags didnt read the comic
>>94254019
wait what
I never kept up with the snapchat shit
whats up with nepeta
also is that snapchat shit still going
>>94254765
Snapchat was quietly abandoned, and it's possible Hussie himself pulled the plug on it because he doesn't think Cohen's attempts at writing Homestuck are presentable, but that's wishful thinking
>>94254845
Yeah like Cohen would ever admit that though.
So earlier this year I read the whole comic from start to finish. I liked it, thought it slowed down when Lord English took over narration/explaining his past, but overall I liked it.
Except the ending.
http://www.mspaintadventures.com/sweetbroandhellajeff/?cid=052.jpg
fucking christ I forgot he ended sbahj on this dumb shit
what the fuck hussie
There isn't nearly enough Eridan discussion in this thread.
What do you guys think of Eridan and his fans?
>>94254923
Honestly, it seemed to be the safest way to end it. The hype for the series to finally fucking end was high, as well as the expectations. If the ending was anything else, the whole community would've ripped the man to shreds.
>>94255085
They ripped him to shreds anyway because the ending was terrible.
>>94253230
Please stop reminding me, it hurts.
>>94255140
It bothers me that he went to a con recently and presumably walked out of it unharmed
>>94255061
As a Eridan cosplayer/voice actor:
He's an okay character. His flawed arc was a fantastic one, but I feel like if we have enough Eridan in the main story.
find a flaw
>>94255212
People straight up didn't recognize him. he's that far gone.
>>94255190
Never.
>>94255212
If i ever saw him with a minion shirt in public id think "yeah, this is the guy ive been hating for months, better move my life"
>>94255061
At the start his fans were the most insufferable creatures to exist in HSG. That initial backlash over him and fef was awful.
Then everything looped back in on itself and it all became a big ouroboros of memes and irony before being integrated fully and inseparable from HSG culture.
>>94255085
I was at least expecting to see something of the fight between Lord English and the John, Rose, Dave and Jade that were trapped, and where those copies ended up in the end, unless I just miscounted.
>>94255349
What do you think those four did in that house for the billions of years they were trapped there
>>94255282
I must embrace the pain, and use it as fuel for my journeyto make a webcomic better than Homestuck.
>>94255292
He's probably gonna pull a JK Rowling and try something different, have it fail on him, then I back to Homestuck and try to "retcon" some minor stuff.
>>94254145

Also what's this retcon everyone keeps talking about? I didn't notice anything egregious when I read through the comic.
>>94255501
I tend to do that alot.
>>94255521
John did the Windy Thing to be scattered along the timeline.

Ever wonder how tentabulges would move in real life?
I'm honestly kind of sick of people talking about the retjohn like it's the worst thing in the entire history of humans
Don't get me wrong, i didn't enjoy it anywhere near as much as the rest of the comic, but it's ridiculous how much everyone seems to hate it
>>94255907
No because tentabulges are for the kind of people that die in car accidents of their own making
>>94255907
I hate tentabulges fuck you
>>94255907
Tentabulges are cancer
>>94255942
maybe people would hate it less if it wasn't so god damn shit
>>94255942
The retcon is literally the worst part of the entire comic and spits in the face of every little moral that it tried to tell previously. Good people will die and be forgotten, dickwads will succeed and even be praised, nothing that anyone does matters because it's all predestined and if your actions don't serve to further SBURB's goals, you die. Mario got the star.
>>94255907
ok, that's pretty hot
>>94255907
No.
>>94255907
How did the whole tentabulge thing start again? God damn if I can remember.
>>94256002
>Good people will die and be forgotten, dickwads will succeed and even be praised
Plenty of dickheads died though, it's just that the dickheads who took advantage of the systems in place and of their teammates lived.
>>94256098
>How did the whole tentabulge thing start again? God damn if I can remember.
Female Tumblr artists cannot draw dicks
So what do they do
Come up with an idea that if all trolls got dicks, they have these dump stupid tentabugles so they dont have to draw an actual penis
>>94255990
>>94256002
You appear to have misread my post
I didn't say the retcon was good, i said "[it's not] the worst thing in the entire history of humans"
>>94256162
I'm sure japanese war crimes weren't the worst thing in the entire history of humans, but that doesn't mean they were still fucked up and awful
>>94256162
No, but it's certainly close
>>94256162
Well okay, I guess shitty writing in a webcomic isn't as bad as the Holocaust, but it's still shitty.
>>94256201
>comparing a shitty part of an otherwise good webcomic to war crimes
Are you high or something
>>94256162

more like people were tired of always drawing boring old dicks all the goddamn time and took advantage of an open invitation to develop something more interesting
tentabulges definitely weren't the most creative of troll genital speculations, but they worked well in porn and had a decent amount of versatility when it came to how they could be used to get others off
If finally reading Homestuck taught me anything, it's that there's some really good fanart and porn of it.
>>94256673
>something more interesting
>but they worked well in porn
get the fuck out of here
>>94256911
i don't understand the reason behind your hostility here
>>94257037
your love of tentabulges honestly gives me indigestion
John x Vriska is still the 8est
>>94257272
You're not wrong.
>>94257272
Why though
>>94257080
what, why? you can't honestly think that their limited existence is in some way worse than the ocean of mediocrity that is porn featuring standard human genitalia, can you? i can understand some people being happy with that stuff, vanilla being a flavor in its own right and all that, but i don't think i'll ever get why so many people are willing to settle for it. let alone why someone would hate practical and/or interesting alternative genitals to the extent that they'd resent the people who've found respite in it

tentadick poor is way more mediocre on average.
>>94257392

Go back to tumblr, cretin.
>>94257392
>hey we want to give them weird genitals
>let's just make them all futanaris with tentacle dicks!
All of the tentabulge exclusive artists I've seen make garbage, the only well drawn pictures are those who draw normal shit.
>tentabulges are the indicator of whether homestuck porn is vanilla or not
I wasn't aware I was talking to a cretin. You have to be 18 to look at pornography.

so much of my porn is composed of smelly jade butt images
>>94248683
this horrible art style... I used to draw like this when I was younger.
>>94257447
what's wrong with the design? a tentacle, often without suction cups and with a urethra at the end, that can be retracted into a vagina-like crevice. it seems pretty structurally sound, & their prehensile qualities seem like an inherent plus to me.
>>94257553
only due to the much more limited pool of artists/writers interested in creating content with it. it's like any obscure fetish work in that respect.
>>94257562
>>94257597
sorry, calling human genitalia "vanilla" was taking it too far. i'm just incredibly tired of its ubiquity in pornographic works that are otherwise fucking weird & unbound to the limits of everyday reality. it's sort of a personal symbol of the crushed dreams of my early adolescence, when i thought rule 34 was (almost) true, that alcohol or coke could make shitty parties fun, that the world was inevitably becoming more tolerant & cooperative with the passage of time & development of scientific discoveries, etc.

Every time I see it it's just a multi-colored tube of molded play-doh. It's got nothing to it.

The Good Old Days
>>94258184
Hard to believe it's been that long
>>94257785
Act 1 is a bit of a slog but I think it's an important slog as it takes its time setting up shit and giving you room to digest all of the logic of the world before kicking the plot off.
>>94257272
still the 8est
>>94257989
This whole conversation just seems like meme opinions. I'm going to guess that there's some infamous tumblr artist who promoted tentacle dicks so everyone feels the need to be contrarian about it. It's just too fucking stupid of a topic.
>>94244108
>re-read Homestuck
But why?
Sometimes I miss Homestuck.
Then I stop.
>>94258433

Why is this a revelation moron? We knew Act 5 brought in all the cancer even when were still in Act 5

I'm here to remind myself to finish my Kanaya/Karkat/Porrim fic, and to check in if there's ever any Hiveswap progress beyond "It'll be done when it's ready."
Deep down, I know it will never come out, but checking in never hurts.
>>94254063
John had a lot of people into him, they just tended to die or turn lesbian or both.
>>94260235
Link that fic when you finish somewhere in these mess of threads, that sounds like my kind of threesome.
>>94260309
>that bit where hussie rags on the idea of rose and john being a thing in the homestuck book
What's crazy is that I read all of Homestuck, even the intermissions and shit, but I can't post in these threads most of the time because even while I was reading I had no sense of continuity, and after I finished I couldn't tell you in what act or sub-act certain events took place etc.
By the time I got 2/3 through the comic I mostly stopped enjoying it (introduction of New Kids/New Trolls) and the rest was just a slog I forced myself to get through because I wanted to finish it.
>>94260483
i mean the way he said it is more like. "my mistake was having two characters interacting with each other" the same can be said with any other ship, JohnRose was just the example.
>>94254063
John is quite wanted. He has multiple varieties of Lalonde and a couple of Scourges, at least.
>>94260438
Sorry, but the po-po jani cracks down on me linking to threads, so I can't post links without a ban. It's easy to find, though - check AO3 and search my name. It's called "Kanaya: Dream"
>>94260568
>By the time I got 2/3 through the comic I mostly stopped enjoying it (introduction of New Kids/New Trolls)
I mean
I kinda think we all got that feeling
around Act 6 things just took a turn for the worst
>>94260573
yeah, but he explicitly calls johnrose shippers nervous investors because >muh firstgirl firstboy
>>94260688
the pain
>>94260688
the irony is that he writes them like a married couple. while didn't even bother with Rosemary.
remember when andrew publicly made fun of a fan for drawing shitty speculative fanart about lord english but then went on to allow all his cronies to draw the characters as obese whales in official flashes?
>>94260759
>>94260813
Yeah I take "nervous investors" about as seriously as his "writing is easy, art is hard." gem.
If the characters work, they work, the order they're introduced in doesn't mean anything. Also man you know dude was overcompensating instead of just saying "hey I changed my mind." because God forbid.
>>94260666
Did Rose ever even show any romantic interest in John? As far as I know he's only desired by two people. Three if you count Terezi wanting to hatefuck him.
>>94260682
I didn't even really dislike the new characters, though I didn't love them that much either. There were just too many.
>>94260906
>Also man you know dude was overcompensating instead of just saying "hey I changed my mind." because God forbid.
Yep
>>94260907
unless you count that one scene for Seer:Decend. not really, but they were totally close enough to make fun of eachother's personal insecurities, then laugh about it. Something other pairings never done.
>>94260907
Man if you didn't see flirting in the walking flash I dunno what to tell you.
>>94260907
There was some teasing during her grimdark phase. Plus, I'm a writefag - kinda my job to exaggerate small moments of possible attraction into dry-humping desire.
Plus Lalonde sandwiches are fucking hot, man.

what did Rose want Dave to tell John?
So where IS the Homestuck fandom nowadays? Are they all on Instagram, cosplaying characters long presumed dead to the world?

Any time. I'll be honest, the Maryams fic has been a bit harder than those two, since Vriska, Roxy and Dave are significantly easier to write for. Of anything, I'm probably most proud of the chatlogs at the start and end of Roxy's Threesome addiction.

yeah and what makes you sure it's not the same case for those who are homestuck
>>94264366
damn thats a cute jade
>>94264790
i dunno.
>>94264816
Paperseverywhere likes Jade the best so she draws her cute

I kinda liked when Jade kept falling asleep
>>94265299
vriska
>>94265299
Jade doesn't. Jade suffers when asleep. Jade wants to be awake and petted by loved ones.
>>94265346
You mean dicked by loved ones.
>>94265449
Jade just wants the affection she's been robbed of her entire life. It makes it even worse that she's part dog. Doggies need love.
>>94265486
>>94265552
>>94265486
That's stupid, Jade doesn't WANT relationships, that's why she should keep away from Dave and Karkat.
>>94265506
>Nepetaquest 2010 never
>>94265800
We got Prequel instead.
>>94265582
>tfw spacey got sick of Homestuck
Least she still draws her fantroll getting creampied constantly
God damn the wiki article for Dave is cancer
>>94266264
That's because... Davekat shippers are cancer.
Like seriously, the worst fucking fans I have seen in a long time.
>>94265338
Is Vriska is so great, why did bringing her back make the comic suck?
>>94266609
I thought it was a good idea.
Because (Vriska) became a huge mess.
>>94266794
And Vriska became a bigger mess. Vriska's just two big fat messes. She was better as John's submissive housewife.
>>94266823
>She was better as John's submissive housewife
Go fuck yourself.
>>94266823
Vriska Is A Big Fat Mess
Low Energy
Sad
>>94266847
You know it's right whoreface.
>>94266847
>Why are you booing me? I'm right!
She was at her very best in her conversations with John, and they were the only times I didn't want to throttle her.
>>94266941
And she actually started to abandon her bitch ways, only to go back to them at at the end when she was brought back.
>>94267007
Is there anyone who actually likes the retcon?
>>94246946jane was cute :(
>>94267077
I can think of two good reasons to like her.
>Everytime I'm early to a Homestuck thread, hotpockets deletes it
>Everytime I'm late it's hit the bump limit
Oh well, it's not like these threads ever change.
>>94266896
>>94266941
Dumb Johnfags, lmao.
>>94267152
>can't prove it wrong
Lol
>>94267077
she had good start, like a John that reacted to things, but then Hussie tossed her to the side like he does with all his toys.
>>94267105
i can think of so many more.. ;;
>>94267072
i enjoyed it a little. then i realized it was all awful and confusing
>>94267417
Right, how could I forget.
>>94267477
So nobody. Maybe a few Davekat shippers, but they're not people.
>>94267496
thick?
>>94267589
large
>>94267138
Hotpockets has been deleting it a lot less, I think there's been a serious backlash. Ideally he's been raped to death, but that's just wishful thinking.
Still, the real question remains what happens if the game gets released. Where the fuck do we go?
>>94267876
/vg/ deletes Hiveswap on sight, it's not going to go over well. They have absolutely no tolerance for MLP-tier cancer like Homestuck, and unlike /co/, it was never hosted there naturally before it mutated into a monster, so there's no reason for them to take it seriously.
>>94267964
>hey have absolutely no tolerance for MLP-tier cancer like Homestuck
They're a goddamn board for generals, they are made exclusively of cancer.
>>94267964
>deletes hiveswap on sight
No shit, it's a game that has no release and no real information
>>94268055
>undertale threads still going
So that's what it feels like.
>>94268055
Is Toby worshiped like a God in those threads?
>>94260438
>>94261218
To you guys who were reading it, I actually managed to finish my Karkat/Kanaya/Maryams fic tonight, so the last chapter's up on AO3 now. Again, can't like, but search my name and you'll find it quick. Now I'm gonna go to bed, cause it's 3:30 in Hussieland and I needs sleep. Thanks for reading!
>>94268251
>Karkat/Kanaya/Maryams
That's Porrim at the end. Boy, do I need sleep.
>>94268242
It would be funny if Tobyposting was bigger in these threads than Undertales.
FUCK KATNEP
>>94268251
Bless you
>>94268242
Well he didn't fuck it up like Hussie
>>94268275
Is anything even still happening with Undertale?
>>94268358
It's outselling Hiveswap
>>94268405
Hiveswap was delayed for so long even Joeyposting died.
>>94268436
>Hussie hates dorky propsit kids
>keeps making waifus of them
What is going on with that man
even /trash/ doesn't allow homestuck
>>94268473
That's because it's still on topic. When it's one janitor deleting a thread it becomes a grudge, not a soft rule.
>>94268458
Masochism. That or an apology to Jade fans.
>>94268242
Not really.
>>94268458
He made Joey back when he was still good.
>>94268793
Has Hussie still at least kept his status as an endless waifu factory?
>>94268793
>Post Kickstarter Hussie
>Good
>>94265338
Agreed!
>>94268855
It's when he reaches the trickster arc that he starts down the road to pure shit, Joey existed at that time in the putrid hands of TOG
>>94253804
SONOFAFUCK
>>94268847
He's like a waifu factory that the last 10% of the production line is just spewing sewage all over the mid-construction waifu
>>94268986
And all the workers have anti-suicide nets
>>94268251
there we go
shot my best load this week to that so thanks
>>94253804
why
