I'll start:
-Condesce recognizing John during the fight and having a funny moment
-Condesce and Aranea saying anything to each other in the GO timeline
-Condy having any relevant presence for the main cast of kids or trolls, which she damn well could have considering she was in all their worlds

That would have been nice after John not getting upset at her being Betty Crocker. Which I'm glad he didn't do.
>>
>>83878521
The Condy fight didn't just feel unimportant, it also felt like they weren't doing anything until the sword stab, making everyone but Roxy redundant. Like if Hussie had remembered that Homestuck used to have lifebars, that would have been enough to know that the lasers and tornados and shitty wizards and PGO-storms were helping.

John should have offered karkat the door and then all the alive trolls and outlines or something of the dead trolls would stand next to him as he opened it. It's a good "reflecting on the journey" thing imo.

Because that's actually what you do when making music to go along with a game or movie - you use certain evolving musical themes and tie the story together with them. The title screen might be Theme 1, the opening might be a gentler mix of Theme 1, the first fight might have Theme 2, the big boss fight then uses a combination of Theme 1 & 2, etc.

Did Kanaya REALLY care about the Matriorb or even restoring her own race? You'd think that someone who wasn't godtier and pretty much the ONLY person who shouldn't be fighting should sit on the sidelines for being too big a risk to lose (see: Game Over).

Additionally, with AltCalliope's statements on how Space is an Aspect that has little significance except in specific moments, it stands to reason she should have stuck in the background to ride out the rest of the way to Act 7.

Instead for some insane reason she participates in the Condesce fight and doesn't die. It's some superior bullshit that not only breaks my immersion for the whole situation, but also breaks the statements about Space Hussie was slamming on Jade to keep her from doing cool shit in Collide.

I don't think JRPG music is a genre yet. Perhaps a very specific subtype of video game music.

Like technically Dark Souls is medieval folk and choral hymns? Or just orchestral?

For Homestuck, I think his pieces share a lot of problems with most songs contributed by people: they are too concerned with sounding awesome rather than good songs in my opinion. Heavy guitar riffs fit in with something gothic like Castlevania, but with Homestuck I always felt them misplaced.

accomplishable =/= a thing that happens.

time loops are a weird thing.

also, dave had a lot of time duplicates when fighting but mostly as a split-second defensive or offensive maneuver, with two or three at a time, while Aradia's doubles just existed to soak up the black king's vast glub and did very little else besides that, and Damara's never protected her, just fucking went around and caused havoc.

an Heir of Time literally travels around and does their quests with their own personal party of them, some from doomed timelines, some from loops.

i wanted caliborn's lord of time powers to be like a culmination of all of the felt's powers

like lord english was able to see where people are going to be, go, can slow or speed himself or others, appear in any fire, using the coat like a superpowered oven, etc. etc.

caliborn already used the crowbar, so it should have just went from there.

Aradia able to stun Lord English would have been fine. Once he broke out though, he should have shown how much stronger HE is by stunning everybody else at once.

probably the most likely to be a passive telepath: you can hear the surface thoughts of everyone in range, and can sacrifice your mental integrity to help bolster the minds of your friends for better decision-making, or communication, or to throw off mind-control

Because we have no clue how the powers manifest if at all, all we have to go in is basic leadership/bonds theme with 'vitality' somehow playing a part too. At least with other poorly outlined aspects, like Doom, there's a pretty obvious theme going on there.

no, there's a difference. you're using your mind to manipulate minds, not matter

you'd be able to plant illusions in people's heads, maybe even manipulate their decisions, and read their thoughts. or give them a shock to their brain so they can't think straight

but if someone hurls a bus at you, you'd better move, because your mind cannot into matter

>>83881250
>Tavros was the most useless troll
He accomplished more than Nepeta and at the very least as much as Karkat, though.
You could argue that the army served little purpose battle-wise, but it was the bait they needed.

>Calliope was the most useless
Nope, at least she helped motivate her friends and stuff.
The most useless cherub is alternate Caliborn.

Well the most we can really say with Mages is they are quite likely the be the active counterpart to Seers in that they use their ability to generate knowledge in an active manner, be it to help their allies usually at their own expense or to help themselves which would likely be the combat side of things. So mind protecting at the expense of your own mental well being is a solid theory of how you could use your powers to help your allies. Whilst mind blasts are a standard manifestation of some form of mind mage would likely employ in combat, so fuck it roll with it.

i wasn't calling mage of mind a thought-powered turboninja. i kind of segued away from explaining that specific combo, and just mind as an aspect in general, particularly when it came to combat

honestly, a mage of mind would be more about the passive telepathic thought perception, and will sacrifice their mind to help protect their friends against a massive mind-related threat, like a mass hypnosis, mind-based illusion, or insanity signal at some point

she was using a fraymotif with dave to send knowledge of better combat decisions back in time to their earlier selves, so that isntead of fucking up and letting dirk tank a rainbow-laser, or get shot to pieces, they could choose something else instead

She was likely projecting possible beneficial future scenarios to Dave, who could then influence time to make them happen in that instance. Fraymotifs seem to drastically increase the strength and possible uses of aspects used in them, though Mind and Time is a combination that is praised in the comic at some point if I remember correctly.

Doom. An aspect even more obscure in nature than void due to the narrative. We can only extrapolate what Doom is from Sollux, but can only separate what separates a "Magey" thing from a "Doomy" thing by looking at Meulin, a mage of heart.
To quote Aranea:
>The Mage of Heart as you know is an ardent disciple of the romantic sciences. She has a well earned reputation as a miracle worker when it comes to match making. But her own romantic history ironically has been riddled with trouble and heartbreak.

So from that, since we know that Heart is linked to relationships, we now know that Mages are talented in using information to help others, but often to the detriment of themselves.

If we look at Mituna, an Heir of Doom, we can take this "non-magey" element called "Doom" and really get to brass tacks.

Now, before he was an autistic fuck Mituna, he was a rather worried fellow.

>He had much to say when it came to warning us a8out the path of doom and destruction we were all headed for, 8ut no one took him very seriously. 8ut one day he lost all those abilities when he 8adly overexerted himself. It's hard to get any specifics from him, 8ut indications are that he applied every last 8it of energy he had toward some great act of heroism, saving us all from some looming threat. Not only did his exertion permanently 8urn out his psychic a8ilities, 8ut it left him somewhat... er. Incoherent. [...] The entire incident is shrouded in mystery.

So as an heir, Mituna "received" doom. First he did so as a warning, and then completely when he fucked himself over. Now we understand that Doom is dangerous in nature, but on a second look, something else interesting is occuring here.

Mituna is now an autistic fuck that can't actually talk straight. He's limited in faculty and function. He's restricted. He's received restriction.

That is one reason that we say that Doom=restriction faggot.

Well the Terezi scenario doesn't support it, particularly with non-God tier players. The Condesce and kids one however you can argue shows Rose using Mind-based combat abilities that don't co-inside with her class of Seer, she's just blasting lazers, some out of her weapon, some seemingly under her own ability and some in the fraymotifs. So I think it makes sense that seemingly non-combat orientated classpect combos should have some form of basic combat abilities at least. But it's nothing conclusive given the lack of alternate observations on hand.
