So was the negative reception for this just limited to /co/?
I heard Tumblr hated it too.
If it were, Hussie wouldn't have heard, and wouldn't be making an epilogue. It's pretty clear that the vast majority of the fanbase want the content that was teased for over 5 years and never delivered on.
>>81877043
Shit nigga I think we're about to get banned from making constant threads
it's not fair tho it's only been two days
That reminds me, I haven't gone and downvoted it yet.
>>81877043
No, it's just that there's an equally large group of fans who will blindly accept anything Hussie likes. Either that, or they think that because the animation is good, the ending is good.
Also, people are more likely to press the 'like' button if they like a video than to press 'dislike' if they don't like a video.
>>81877067
Tumblr immediately went into "You don't get it guys, it was about the journey and the fandom and all the good times we had together" type of bullshit because they don't want to admit they waste all this time following this shit.
>>81877043
Some of the likes might be accounted to the fact that this is a YouTube video, and some people who haven't heard of Homestuck will watch this and like the animation without being given the context.
I wish we would've seen more of Kurloz.
He was cool.
Also I'm guessing he gave Vriska's coat to Gamzee who gave it to Stitch and that's how the Cairo Overcoat was made?
No, lots of people were very disappointed. In fact I would say that was the general reaction. /co/ just hyperbolizes everything to extremes. There were lots of good things about the ending especially if you look at it for itself and not in light of all the bullshit of Act 6 and if I were the kind of tool who voted on youtube videos, I, too, would rate it positively despite being very disappointed with the ending as a whole and in context.
You guys realize >>>/trash/ is your home nw, right?
>>81877175
All the Tumblr fanart I've seen for the end has artist comments that are prefaced with "despite my personal feelings on the ending"
>>81877290
Comic isn't over.
>>81877290
Not for a week or so
I'm honestly starting to believe Caliborn made that ending. The way it's all anime and drawn (i.e HIGH ART part in cali's session) just proves it. Also, the Sburb juju was never that huge in the video. It was as small as John's head.
Maybe if I re-read Problem Sleuth I'll find closure.
>>81877290
Not until after the Epilogue is out. Maybe a week after the Epilogue. And then we probably move to /v/ or /vg/ for Hiveswap. Then it's off to /trash/ for good, until Hussie's next project. Then we're back!
You will never be rid of us.
Alright what do heirs actually do? We only really have one gold example of a heir in the comic and for all everyone talks about them defending their aspect I never see John defending air or freedom
If you guys hated it so bad, why haven't you voted on the video? Make Hussie cry.

>Comic isn't over.
Doesn't change anything, these threads are getting deleted regardless.
>>81877433
I thought they were only getting deleted if they're made before the last one finished, in a general-chain style. That's reasonable.
>>81877419
If /vg/ can be a permanent home for endless Katawa Shoujo threads, it sure as hell can host Hiveswap threads indefinitely.
The main problem is that there isn't a /cog/ board.
>>81877290
>/trash/ is your new home
Correction
its the home for homestuck generals.
Whatever Hussie craps out next however.....prepare for all the generals that might create for people pissing and moaning
>>81877290
>4+ webcomic threads
>at least 2 different SU or Zootopia threads
>3 PPG threads
>The homestuck thread 2 days after the finale is the problem
I remember why I stopped coming to /co/
>>81877462
So in /v/ then? Have fun.
All you had to do was give us closure Hussie. That's all you had to do. One job, Hussie. One job.
>>81877459
A /cog/ board would honestly fix almost everything about /co/. Maybe a board specifically for capeshit, too, since that keeps bringing /tv/ junk over here. If there can be a board JUST for Pokemon, there should be a board for all the superhero stuff that clogs up this board.
is there anything that can be said about homestuck that hasn't already been said about Homestuck though
I think its time these threads started slowing down
>>81877591
>dave's hair is a bird
Shut the fuck up twat
>>81877591
what can you say about homestuck?
it was homestuck
>>81877574
be real here, when do you think the epilogue will come out? literally everyone is going to forget about homestuck in a few months if he doesn't update
>>81877591
No
Now someone please storytime AIDS.
>>81877616
Realistic? 4-6 months.
Optomistic? 6-12-2016

>>81877641
What does that even mean?
>>81877466
>place is already shit
>why not add more shit
That's the logic you're goin with?
>>81877616
I wish he didn't treat the epilogue like an afterthought
Especially when PS' epilogue is what made that comic
>>81877672
When did I say the word hate? People here have statistically said hate more than me.
>>81877576
>If there can be a board JUST for Pokemon, there should be a board for all the superhero stuff that clogs up this board.
God, "/cs/ - Capeshit" would be perfect but /co/'s like 70% superheroes so it'd get too much flak from folk who associate their identities with specifically being /co/ posting superhero fanatics.
>>81877689
I don't blame the guy. He just wants the comic to be over with. This comic ruined his image.
>>81877680
Christ are we already doing this shit, it hasn't even been a fucking week yet, fuck off
>>81877672

>>81877750
This place can only go downhill from "Bitch about the homestuck ending: the thread" for a week.
>>81877756
Stay on topic in these threads.
>>81877709
Every time I see you in these threads you're always complaining about something. And when you're not saying something is shitty you're just shitposting randomly
>>81877821
>Every time I see you in these threads you're always complaining about something
that's funny because everyone is complaining about something in these threads
>>81877043
the bad part wasn't the video, it was what it was followed up with. just a vague statement about an epilogue after what was supposed to be the epilogue.
>>81877756
I can't help it the bait is too strong
I feel the natural urge to bite it. Help me anon I have a problem

oh neat. a comic nobody read tangentially related to homestuck
>>81878045
Man, I really hope that whatever Hussie does next, he does it in his real style.

>>81878254
Shut your mouth vfan.
Problem Sleuth was great. He was good at one point
>>81878281
Then re-read problem sleuth, this is about Homestuck.
>>81878257
He did, yes, but years of doing sprite art for MSPA actually made him worse.
Not that we'd ever know because he hasn't drawn shit in forever.
>>81878281
Why haven't you filtered that annoying whore yet?
>>81877931
Anon fuck you for posting this.
>>81878364
you bitching every time someone responds to a post I make is more annoying than a post I make.
>>81878257
Fall from grace and people hate you all the more for not having been born a joke.
I'll be all aboard whatever (if anything) Hussie's on next and will be all the more thrilled if it's not remotely Homestuck related. The guy's always had style and he's never lost it. He just lost control (and possibly passion).

And thats the end, thanks for reading.
There is also a prequel that is not made by hussie, if you wanna read it anyway: http://tauhidbondia.com/aids.php
>>81878771
Why write a comic with its premise about rhymes when your flow is so shit. especially when you go on to mock icp in your future web comic
>>81878771
It's vfan, just ignore her.
You guys are stuck with her now, though, sorry.

>>81878869
>>81878793
What does this have to do with Homestuck? I don't think this has much to do with Homestuck. I don't think it's on topic with even Hussie.
>>81878908
Don't really care much, not my problem anymore.
Just you being your usual contrarian self, except it's more repugnant now since people here talk about the comic.
Which kid was the least interesting and why was it Jane?
>>81878908
can I rap battle you
>>81878946
because act 6 blows
>>81878946
Least characterization
There was also partially the "keep shit from her" thing because of mind control, but that didn't really go anywhere.
Jade at least got better later on.
>>81877428
Seriously do we just not know?
>>81878946
Jane because she was the least interesting.
>>81878945
Can you start talking about the comic?
>>81878957
yes
the catch 22 is it has to be about homestuck
presumably each of the different rappers in AIDS has a different style, and some are good and some are bad
otherwise, making it about a rap tournament wouldn't make sense because they'd all sounds the same and have the same level of skill
so hussie actually is demonstrating more skill than you think
he can actually write bad on purpose
but we've all known that, haven't we
Harleybert girls confirmed for worst in all respects
>>81878989
>he can actually write bad on purpose
can i shill my fanventure again yet to get the ball rolling for it
>>81878946
Hussie gave her interesting traits that were shafted and never mentioned again.
>>81878986
BZZZZZZZZT
Groove: Homestuck
Shade: Hussie
>>81878908
it's literally by hussie
it serves as inspiration for the striders, especially dirk's fetchmodus
it shows a time when hussie was better at succinct storytelling than homestuck
also it's just fun
>>81878907
I mean, you participated in HSG right? At one point the General becomes more about the community and secondary content than the source material. Same with, like, Touhou.
>>81879020
well
yeah
the proof
the pudding
etc
>>81878986
thats not a catch 22 tho
>>81879038
What do the posts I replied to have to do with "And it Don't Stop", Hussie, or Homestuck hm?
>>81877341
>>81877419
wait, so youre not allowed to talk of comics that ended already on /co/?
clearly not so whys homestuck different?
>>81878946
Just too many characters to juggle and Jane got the short stick because Dirk is his self-insert, Roxy was fun to write, and Jake is his mandatory goofy foil.
What do you guys think the epilogue will be about?Or your ideal epilogue.
>See all the characters lives in the new universe.
>Get some explanation on who lived and who died.
>Karkat is finally fucking useful and we see why he is important.
>Hopefully more characterization and more humor.
>Probably some stupid romance drama.
>A few time skips happen.
>All the trolls die one by one.
>We get to Caliborn's masterpieceif when it happened was after Act 7 and is not from a doomed timeline or sometime else.
>We return to the battleground where Vriska uses the juju to release the beta kids.
>Battle ensues.
>Actually see what happens to Lord English.
>THE END.
I actually haven't really re-read the story in a while so forgive me if I make a few mistakes.
What homestuck memorabilia do you own /co/?
What SBURB fuckery that didn't happen in comic did you want to see?
>>>81879070
they're talking about you

come on don't be deliberately obtuse, vee
http://jade.waifu.pl/
>>81879143
That's not on topic. I am not the topic of the thread.
>>81879129
it will be act 8, narrated by vriska, and will be comprised entirely of her wedding with hussie, with no explanation about act 7 at all
>>81877432
honestly i thought it was pretty cool
it lacked a lot of detail but for the finale of a webcomic to be an entire animation with pretty good standing of principals is awesome
and the lacking parts will be resolved in the epilogue so i dont have much qualms with it, its better off in an epilogue anyway considering the dialogue
>>81879143
I thought meta threads were a bannable offense
>>81879154
but you're a trip, so you're gonna get talked about
talking to other people in the general is allowed

Would you guys have been willing to wait for the comic to come back later if we didn't have to wait yet again for the epilogue
>>81879219
yes
>>81879219
I would have rather waited an extra year

Sure.

It's over. It feels cold and empty. There will be no more update art after the epilogue, and even then I'm assuming a bunch of people have already signed off. No new music, no more theories, no more 4am shitposting.
It's only a matter of time before mods decide to ban regular homestuck threads.

>So, he proposed a collaboration. In retrospect that was probably just a formality but, in my defense, I gave it an honest try, at first. We were going to alternate pages of art.

>>81879915
>>81879997
You're both wrong, it's HSG.
I suddenly like the ending because my headcanon is that English won and wrecked entire ghost army + Vriska. Bitchass kids escaped to the new Universe and didn't live in peace for long before English came after them. Knowing that their shit is fucked, they went after caliborn and masterpiece happened.
Then beta kids jumped out of the juju and got killed as well, while those who remained in the new Universe got pulverized by English, the end.
>>81880099
I had a feeling of dread lingering with me for days after collide.
I loved collide so much I knew it was going to be a let down afterwards. not to mention the ominous ending (which didn't actually mean anything?????)
that and the build up in these threads was torture to me.
>>81877043

>>81880129
>ominous ending because it showed LE's birth and death at the same time
>>81880128
I like this
Caliborn/English really did win though didn't he.
The only thing (and I do think literally the only thing he didn't do) was fuck his sister. He killed her. But besides making her kill herself that was it.
He mastered anime, got fucking SWOLE, became unbeatable, fucking WON. Only reason he'll lose is because he agreed to it.
>>81880147
They had wild sex.
>>81880055
It seems that it really was impossible to play, that's what kills me.
