What are some of the biggest dropped plot points in Homestuck?
>>82073905
what about this is dropped?
the fact that Fedora Freak never showed up to save the day?
>>82073905
Karkat's character arc
>>82074135
We never see any more exiles and after A5A1 the comic treats it like there was only ever one session on earth.
>>82074174
well I was always under the impression that all of the other sessions were inherently fucked from the get-go by "fate" or whatever because they didn't have meteor babies.
>>82074255
Cal's didn't either technically.
So are all of you guys in your 60's? Because I started reading from the beginning and all that happened after 45 minutes of reading is that some kid installed a game on his computer and got a cake for his birthday.
I'm now convinced that it would take at least three decades of continuous reading to read all of Homestuck. What's it like for you guys in the retirement home?
>>82074311
when I caught up the midnight crew intermission had just started.
it wasn't hard to read when it was just a few pages or so a day.
Characters who deserve to enter the new universe:
Caliborn
Karkat
Jack Noir
Diamonds Droog
Hearts Boxcars
Clubs Deuce
Condesce
Aranea
Meenah
Vriska
Honorable mention: Eridan, Gamzee
Anyone I forgot to mention?

They were. The kids' session was the only drop of universe cum Earth squeezed out
>>82073905
There actually should've been hundreds of exiles in the game if we are to take this as canon.
Hell, even if we NEVER saw any other sessions beyond the trolls, our earth should've been littered with the damn critters, because probability dictates that SOME other kids/adults survived to enter the medium.

>>82075377
that's hussie's writing style haven't you realized
there's no way to tell if he really planned it out that far, or if he just deliberately writes everything in a way that makes it seem foreshadowing, and then periodically goes back and picks things to make real
im in the camp of "he plans it all the way out because he's a fucking madman" myself
>>82075435
its called retroactive foreshadowing and he confirms he does it all the time

I've been stewing on it for about a week now, but I still can't comprehend how awful that ending was.
It's one thing to make an open ending, like LOST. It's another to do when you built up character arcs and then just slap the reader with the ending without concluding those arcs.
What a complete asspull.
>Problem Sleuth's final boss fight takes up half of the comic
>Homestuck's final boss is killed off-screen and never actually interacts with any of the main characters.
Imagine if Act 7 detailed the fight with LE and was the same length as the first six acts together.
what did he mean by this?
>>82076463
He's prepping Jade to be horny for normal Dave
So by the time they're ready to enter the new universe Jade's panties are soaked just from standing near Dave
>reading fic

Act 7 has brought in so many LOST apologists it makes me sick. THAT was a garbage ending.
>>82076422
Dude....do you remember all the huge logs right before the ending? One even literally adresses, that the characters don't have arcs because they are just people, and the Dave/Dirk one underlines that point
>>82076495
>Jade wearing panties
Don't make me post those bottomless Jades

they're just people

So, what about the fact we never found out who made SBURB?
>>82076601
literally not bait

>Roxy gets Condy's curse
>Dave permadies during EOA6
>Rose plays the rain for real
>Kanaya chainsaws Derse in half
>>82076523
The Dave/Dirk one underlines that Dave did in fact have an arc. He's one the the few who did. That's the real irony here.
>>82076554
>people are still misinterpreting a meta joke made by fucking DAVE as actual author commentary
he had a fucking arc you moron, that's why it WAS A JOKE
>>82076641
The universe did. It's just a way for it to reproduce.
>>82076544
Fine
The rapidly forming pool of spaceinfused girlcum that accumulates as she stands next to Dave
>>82076653
no shit but it was also a joke that he used to excuse himself from not giving all of the other main characters arcs
>>82076648
>>82076653
growing up =/= a character arc
it's just growing up
it's a story about kids growing up
>>82076697
When did he ever use it to fucking excuse himself?
It is literally taking a joke out of context and pretending it's author commentary.
>>82076698

John............?
Jade finally realized she doesn't have to be the universe's bitch
Rose finally was able to trust people outside her friend group and be remotely happy
Dave got over his distorted perception of Bro by meeting a version of him that was an actual person
lol Jane
Jake finally got to be left alone and flourish on his own, and he realized he was fine with that
Dirk let someone else take the reins for a moment
Roxy succeeded in keeping her friends together and also found love/conquered her alcoholism
>>82076983
>if jade sat down you could just slide her across the floor like it was a slip n slide

was that yet another important character moment that happened offscreen

>>82077028
Yes. Hussie loves his time skips.
>>82077003
Kanaya had her arc fulfilled in Act 5 Part 2 by becoming Rose's girlfriend
Karkat, Vriska and Terezi didn't learn fucking shit and remain jokes forever
>>82077028
yeah i really needed to see roxy struggling and crying/sweating in her sleep over a long period of time to get the full scope of her character
>>82077051
Actually isn't it kind of weird that nobody but Roxy noticed that those two look fucking identical?
>>82077030
growing up is part of an arc but not the same, because an arc demands a certain narrative structure, like having a start and an end/resolve
>>82075615
No such thing as a good racebend.
>>82077051
Realtalk if there is a legit TV show I'm going to assume it'll just be a bunch of kids playing a normal session with some waaaaaaacky caveats

>>82077092
do you not know how literature works
you don't have to show the whole thing, just a moment of decision, a moment of temptation, and then a moment of renewed determination
if you put all of those things together, you have a pretty solid character arc
>>82077147
aw is baby sad her story checklist didnt get checked
>>82077012
Nice. I just realized I don't have any good dogtier jade fanart
>>82077144
Dude I'm not even saying she's wet, just want to educate people that that's natural lube and not cum.
>>82077179
no I'm not particularly a fan of roxy
I'm sad that Homestuck is shit in general
>>82077147
Homestuck isn't literatureIt's shiterature
>>82075538
So horrible, yet so... acceptable as true.
>>82077195
your sorting of a proper narrative into a rigid checklist is why literature is dying out
>>82077144
It's not like it's voluntary or anything. It's just that after so long alone she sees him and it swells and moistens up like an automated water balloon.
>>82077224
I don't buy this argument and I never will
It's good to keep things fresh but simply not showing things is not a revolutionary move
Homestuck is shit in many ways because it doesn't show, it tells, and that is one rule of literature that is eternal.
>>82077266
keeping the alpha kids secondary to the story by timeskipping them, which also built conflict, kept us from slogging through yet another baseline sburb session that would've been even more boring considering the specifications of the session
>>82077266
Re-watch Terezi: Remem8er
meta-narrative
the last refuge of the hack
>>82077302
Yes it was fine to skip the mechanics of SBURB, because we had already seen them before. But rushing the character development and dumping it all into pages-at-a-time pesterlogs is what caused people to dislike the alpha kids and grow bored with Act 6.
>>82077330
We could have had a Nepeta-narrative instead
What designs are you guys liking in the contest?
>>82077255
Is there anything with Jade being an ultra submissive puppygirl that just is desperate for affection
>>82077385
We kinda did, when you think about it.

are you new

>both dave and dirk looking askance at paedophile/orc jake
>>82077330
As long as this isn't done by many lazy authors to excuse shit, they can't resolve, it's fine.
It was one quirk of the story and it worked, considering it's popularity
>>82077462
Well they changed over time, but the changes weren't meaningful because the appropriate dramatic weight wasn't hitched to them.
>>82077456
it wasn't an excuse
>>82073905
In no particular order:
The Ultimate Riddle
Horrorterrors
The way )(IC escaped the Scratch
Draconian Dignitary, Drollgorg
Ring of Void, Trickster juju, the cueballs being LE's weakness (though you could said Juju!Dave had Caledflwch with him)
GCATavros, (Vriska), the Game Over cast
The kids actually leaving for the Masterpiece
SBURB being a vicious cycle that Calliope wanted them to break (but they just perpetrated it in the end)
The great big thing Jade was supposed to do as a Space player according to alt Calliope (pre-pause)
Vriska's sources
>>82075352
>Jane
>Not getting together with Tavros
>Not pairing the bull with the cow
>>82077504
i'm fairly sure the point of their "barren" session was that neither they or their game changed at all as people
roxy was already a good person prior to the alcholism, and getting rid of it just allowed her to be more of herself
besides a few shifts in character dynamics between everyone they didnt change much as people, and its not expected for them to considering they had 6 months while the kids went for 3 years
>>82077554
>The way )(IC escaped the Scratch
HOW ABOUT HOW SHE GOT TO THAT UNIVERSE AT ALL
So like
I just watched act 7
what the fuck happened with everything?
What the fuck happened to Lord English? It looks like nothing actually happened to him and then everyone just went on with their lives into a new universe, even though we know that he can find and destroy other universes. I get something vague happened, but I must have missed it.
>>82077554
>the cueballs being LE's weakness
LITERALLY addressed in Act 7, its part of his mortality clock
>>82077580

I want to eyefuck Calliope's hollow head and cum inside until her head is filled with my cum, making it drip from her eyes
I want to make Roxy step on Calliope's butthole with a stilleto
I want to launch Calliope in the ground and rape her mouth
I want to violate Calliope's virginity
I want to penetrate Calliope's asshole to make it bleed,but then keep going until she's wrecked with pain
I want to make Calliope get raped by her brother
I want to step on Calliope
I want to cover Calliope's body in cum, so much that her entire body is slimy and sticky
I want toshiton Calliope
>>82077612
kids go to their universe ---> later go and teleport to Caliborn (remember the claymation) and get trapped in the juju/create Lord English ---> are later released to fight against LE
this last fight was not shown for reasons and may be addressed in the epilogue
>>82077612
Popular interpretation: The Juju sent him into the black hole alt Calliope created.

>>82077646
>
>>82077650
Oh shit so that box that Vriska drags around is them? Ok, well, time to wait another 6 months for hussy to release the epilogue to his "finished" story.
>>82077557
Whether or not that was the point I don't know but I don't really agree that that's how it shook out. Compare Dirk and Jake at the end of Act 6 to their personalities at the beginning. They both come across as defeated, depressed people and it shows in their dialogue. This is a pretty negative change though and they never really seem to find resolution because the story cuts off before they can. It's like they're halfway through their arc and then we skip straight to the end where they frolic in the fields together and play soccer. But we didn't see how they got to that point so it's a pretty empty gesture.
>>82077554
> The Ultimate Riddle
Wasn't it said or implied, that the story itself with it's "random" plotpoints like...Terezis Judgement based on various irrelevant things, that lead to Vriskas death pre-retcon was that riddle?
> (Vriska)
Re-watch Rerezi: Remem8er
> the Game Over cast
That's a weird one. I assumed they just weren't existing, but Terezi still existed in Remem8er
calliope is not for harming
>>82077642
That was a fucking joke. Inb4 "What about Homesuck"?
>>82077703
Jake gets to be a hero when finally left to his own devices like a Page should, which I think is the perfect ending for his little arc.
Dirk's is weird, considering he's kind of just listening to Dave, but considering he's for the first time ever NOT in charge of everything he just gets the time to be introspective
At least the little "new universe" snippet shows that they have reconciled.
>>82077646
Good luck bro.
>>82077757
Calliope IS for sexual abuse
I want tovoreher
I want her to be shamed in public,being called out on her sluttyness
>>82077621
But he wasn't there either!
>>82077851
>Lord English
>not there
>>82077788
I don't agree. Jake didn't want to be a hero, he wanted to make up with his friends and not feel awkward around them anymore. Doing something heroic might be the impetus that leads him to that, but without actually showing some transitional scenes, it results in an unsatisfying, incomplete arc that relies on the reader to fill in far too many blanks.
>>82077771
but they were imbued with zillystuff
they could have at least served as a distraction for LE rather than aradia or something. (sorry ara ara)
