The comments saying that are from the December or January update; they're more pissed off that the team is only updating people every half a year or so with worse and worse news.

The hiveswap official site is still showcasing their 3D assets and trailer so it hasn't been updating in a very long time, pretty disappointing shit.

>>81966485
No, I'm pretty sure you can't. If the project is fully funded, you're locked in. One of the terms & conditions for KS is that you're accepting that the project may never be fulfilled if you back.

Hey, newreader, you should listen to this actual song from 1909. It's (sort of) the inspiration for the Midnight Crew.

Ignore the comments and related videos because now it's all Homestuck related.

The lyrics aren't relevant to the Midnight Crew in the comic, but it's a nice song and samples from it get used in a few flashes.

it was the three-year timeskip bullshit. during which characters had no development. this isn't a 'humans don't have arcs' thing, this was plain nonsensical, and character-destroying. it fundamentally retconned all the characters personalities, turning them from borderline-genius precocious kids who were capable of amazing feats (as evidenced in the preceding acts), into dimwitted shiftless fuckups who spent THREE YEARS doing... nothing. for no reason. just made no fucking sense. doesn't make any fucking sense.

until Act 7 I was legitimately expecting this whole thing to end up retconned and/or revealed as a time-fuckery ruse by Scratch/LE. that it wasn't actually three years and the kids had had their perspectives fucked or were somehow playing their own ruse on the audience by pretending to have become shiftless morons.

Jade is the only character that had a full actual arc while still completing her quest, remained consistent in characterization, and ultimately still ended up getting the ending they deserved. Any relationship shit they had was mostly present from the beginning, she still remained able to be funny even at the end, and she's adorable.

English isn't my first language, what do the SBURB logo shaped artifact, the cherub lollipops, and the other jujus have to do with Judaism? Is there something in Jewish mysticism that explains why they're all called that?

yeah but she's boring as shit

so maybe you can check off her "correct character checklist" but she's still dull as hell

it was a twist which felt like a buildup to something greater, which was never delivered. just like all of act 6.
>>
>>81967421
Well you see. The Jews use their evil magic and tricks to manipulate things like the Media and Banks. In Homestuck, the evil jewish magic, called "jujus" take the shape of random items imbued with jew magic, all of which have different effects.

Not really. She's cute but she works good as both a straight man and whatever the opposite is for various characters. She's very flexible, and had a good amount of funny conversations.
Heck, the very last conversation in Homestuck is hers, and it's actually pretty good.

I think you might actually be right. The first part had flaws but had a good story and was a nice introduction to the world and the characters, as well as having a great murderous baddy. The middle part's plot honestly didn't make much sense and took out bits older fans liked in order to pander to new ones, but it nevertheless had excellent characterisation. The last bit had some good moments that didn't link together very well, and the ending shat the bed so completely and utterly it retroactively made absolutely everything up to that point so much worse.

All we're waiting for now is the desperate damage control DLC that tries to salvage the endings while not actually addressing the fundamental problems with the story.

Popularity made Homestuck lose some of its edge(NOTE: Death is not by itself edge), but what really killed it is its endless contrarism

Then we remove character arcs because "People don't have arcs"

Yes.
When I was 14 or 15 I was an active member of the MSPA IRC group
There was this one older guy there who I kind of fell head over heels for, bit of a nutter but really fun
Turns out it was a chick pretending to be a guy all along and I was questioning my sexuality for nothing
Afterward she followed me through a few other groups and then we dropped out of contact when I was 16 or 17
Oh, and the girl who I lost my virginity to read Homestuck, but we didn't meet through it

Who's more pathetic, Karkat or Anthony Burch

Which troll fans had it worst?

I'm going with Feferi fans. They got a handful of pages and dialogue, and then they never see their favorite troll after her death again, except for maybe once in a blue moon.
>>
>>81968919
I bet Karkat still has his Grub-U

There are people in this world who respect Anthony Burch
The same cannot be said of Karkat

>>81968936
Eridan. He was the true irredeemable one.
>>
>>81969044
>>81969015
to be fair he died happy and just in time to miss act 7
>>
>>81969015
As dumb as he was, Eridan was still a guy capable of slaying angels nonstop to the point his planet became so dangerour all the other trolls were scared of entering there
>>
>>81966465
I remember when they didnt exist at all
>>
>>81969015
He was clearly conceived to be a cool character. He was first mentioned as a "wealthy and influential member of the nautical aristocracy." But then, Hussie happened. All his best ideas are sullied by his mind.
>>
>>81967328

>>81969044
Death as a concept was revealed to be meaningless in Homestuck shortly after his own. It doesn't matter that he killed anyone. In R8m8m88r, Aradia and Sollux were there to greet his ghost, with Aradia smiling and Sollux not upset in any way.
>>
>>81969368
He was unlikeable and did nothing of relevance. That's the problem.
>>
>>81968379

>>81969427
That's 98% of the cast of Homestuck by the time Homestuck ends.

>with Aradia smiling and Sollux not upset in any way.
To be fair, Aradia stated she didn't see death as a bad thing anymore, and Sollux disliked Eridan.

The homestuck girls are very impregnable
If Hussie can do anything, it's create great waifus
>>
I feel like that one guy who tends to bring up his disdain for the fan cord segment of Problem Sleuth every time we discuss that adventure in-depth was right all along, but also that I only think that part drags because he pointed out how much it does. Still, this is pretty tedious after all.

He's said several times that the lazily photoshopped pictures of grey human actors with horns on Karkat's walls are what adult trolls really look like. They literally are grey humans with horns, it's just that their infant forms are bugs.

"No"
He was just busy drawing, then John came along and insulted his drawings, and later just beat him up.

Have we been the reading the same comic? If Bro was abusing Dave, then Dave is abusing Karkat. Just reread Penis Ouija.'

Wanting to strangle living being isn't really what most people consider to be "likeable"

Several, if not most, of the stated aspects of their biology are similar to that of insects. They're a race of insect-like creatures with a few mammalian features and that's just a fact.

>>
>>81969961
wow lucky you
>>
>>81969946
Just because they're based off something doesn't mean they can't stray from it and develop into their own thing. Though me saying there only have a few mammal traits was an understatement. Half and half seems more fair.
>>
>>81969427
Eridan was funny as hell and had a cool design

I'd trade him for Terezi any day but he was great
>>
>>81970022
I suppose you don't have any such fanart saved?

I was expecting act 7 to be Hussie linking to the seventh adventure slot on the website and giving it like five hundred pages or so, then linking back; that's the only way I feel they could have cashed in every bit of foreshadowing, wrap up every plot thread, and give characters actually satisfactory arcs.

>THE JOURNEY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE DESTINATION

WELL GUESS WHAT?!

YOU'RE FUCKING WRONG AND EVERYONE WHO THINKS LIKE THAT IS WRONG! THE POINT OF A JOURNEY IS TO GET TO A DESTINATION YOU WANTED BECAUSE THEN YOU WOULDN'T UNDERTAKE THE JOURNEY IN THE FIRST PLACE!

IF I FOLLOWED THAT LOGIC THEN MY GRANDFATHER WOULD'VE DIED MUCH EARLIER BECAUSE I WOULD'VE GONE FOR HIS INSULIN BUT INSTEAD OF GETTING TO THE PHARMACY, I WOULD'VE MET INTERESTING PEOPLE, AND HAD TEENAGE DRAMA PROBLEMS AND MAYBE GOT INTO A FIGHT, AND NEVER MADE IT TO MY DESTINATION, AND COME BACK A WISER MAN.

BUT GUESS WHAT?!

MY FUCKING GRANDFATHER WOULD'VE BEEN STILL DEAD BECAUSE I NEVER MADE IT TO MY FUCKING DESTINATION!

SO YES, I AM COMPARING THIS SHIT TO MY GRANDFATHER DYING BECAUSE IT'S METAPHORICALLY THE SAME THING. AND YOU'RE A PIECE OF SHIT IF YOU SUPPORT THIS.

The only thing. THE ONLY FUCKING THING that makes this all better is that I only joined the bandwagon a month ago. If I had invested more time in this, I would've felt bad. Now, NOW I can just go on with my life. But I feel so bad for other people, who ARE actually invested in this.

>>81968936
Feferi fans sure do, yeah. Though they made the mistake of latching onto a minor character that only appeared in Act 5.
Tavros fans had it bad, he was relevant in Acts 3-4 (before Vriska took his place as the fourth patron troll and proceeded to ruin the story) and there was a reason to think he'd get a satisfying conclusion other than "tapdance on LE's head, bring bait for him to kill, end up DAOOTS".

what DIDN'T that track have

>>81969799
Dave was being shitty to Karkat, but they're also close in age. It's more like harassment than it is abuse.
Bro was Dave's guardian and probably closer to twice his age when he was being abusive.

Even if Dave was being a douche, the two situations are not really comparable.
