What does Sup Forums think of the so-called post-canon Homestuck updates? The snapchat ones not done by Hussie?
Come to think of it, what did Sup Forums think of PXS when it first came out?

Only huss should write the comic. Nobody else on his payroll is qualified enough. Quite the opposite in fact.

>Only huss should write the comic

Hussie writing the comic got us Davekat though.

The snapchats are really unfunny, and fail to capture Hussie's style in any meaningful way. They aren't offensively bad for the most part (though most will disagree with me on that), but there's practically nothing positive about them either. They aren't enjoyable, they aren't relevent to canon, they aren't really anything, they just ARE.

As for PXS, it pretty quickly became apparent how mediocre it was.

Mediocre works are always worse than outright bad works.

...

Hussie is the least qualified person to write Homestuck now.

Except it has been proven he isn't.

No, just that he's unqualified. As we've already seen, there are MUCH MUCH MUCH worse options.

How long till he fires Cohen, like he does everyone else?

>Cohen
>worse than the man, the monster, who made the retcon and Act 7

That man showed us that, once upon a time, he could be good.
Cohen's never been good. It's like a fallen paladin versus an evil demonic entity.

S-H-I-T

That's an apt analogy, but the fallen paladin is the one who completely destroyed the kingdom he fought for. The demon is just a pestilence infesting the ruins.

The demon is the one who corrupted the paladin. We've known Cohen has worked with Hussie for a while.

That sounds like a stretch but it wouldn't surprise me. I'm of the opinion Hussie has no one to blame but himself. I did suspect Cohen may have ghostwritten post-retcon Homestuck, but he denied it when asked up front.

I don't think he ghost-wrote Homestuck, but I think he and his clique of morons influenced Hussie negatively. Huss is a very impressionable dude after all.

We need to get in there and influence the old Huss back, then.

Can't, not with MSPAF down.

>Huss is a very impressionable dude after all.

No shit. He made a career off following the commands of other people.

I've been reading Wizardy Herbert, and it's pretty good. Here's a non-spoilery snippet:

>“Herbert, where do you hope the Allotment Socks shall send you?” Beatrix asked
>“Hmmmmmm I don’t know” Herbert was so confused by this new place and all of these new friends and new adventures
>“I hope they send me to the one which values friendship above all else!” Herbert said, he sounded brave and heroic.
>“HA!!!” Russet scoffed arragantly. “As if you have what it takes.” He was brash and haughty and nobody liked him.
>“Don’t listen to him Herbert his arragance will be his downfall.”

Definitely recommended to anyone who likes Hussie's humor and writing style.

I miss it when Rose was cute.

Was it ever fully finished (like, it's just a first draft and there's some pieces missing, but it reaches a definitive ending)?

I didn't finish it yet, but Hussie said on Formspring that "(WH) feels like such a similar (to HS) thing to me, this might be the main reason why I'll never quite finish it", suggesting it's unfinished.
There are no missing pieces in-between.

i can't believe i'm still jerking off to these characters

Which HS characters are cucks?

Hard mode: No MSPA reader

There's still porn being made.

Tbh, Dave supporting Jade through a tiny spacehole is cute and funny.

I have fapped to Homestuck almost exclusively since I started reading when it was early into Act 5.2.

Karkat

>As for PXS, it pretty quickly became apparent how mediocre it was.

Summerteen romance was 10/10 though

They're essentially the same level of quality as the end of Homestuck. It has the same fundamental problems as Homestuck ended with.

The saving grace at the moment is how slowly and erratically it's updated, making for so little overall (so far). Some of what they're alluding to seems interesting, some of it seems shit.

Hopefully it can clean up some of the more glaring loose-ends from Homestucks actual ending, before the actual epilogue? That would be my highest hope for it. Especially bring us back DD and CD mecha/coup subplot that got dropped hard.

And, you know, Mr. 7, which was, you know, an Intermission comic written by...eh, doesn't matter

Andrew Hussie is a self-loathing betacuck numale whose been emotionally castrated by Halftruth and literally castrated by IPGD. All of his friends and employees are SJWs who demonize men and it comes through in his writing of all male Homestuck characters been wimpy and emotionally broken and the female characters as strong independent women who don't need no man.

I really really want lots of nice little dog-eared kids to happen. You got me tumblr. I want a heartwarming family of humans with little dog ears on top like a garnish of powdered cute. I want Dave to be occasionally scolded for his unorthodox parenting techniques by a grumpy Jade, already busy breast feeding the latest set of triplets. I want Jade to sleep covered in a blanket of tiny, slightly fluffy babies. I want Jade to feel fulfilled in her position as grand matriach of an incredibly complex family tree that's incredibly influential in the world. Like her great-great-great-great-great-great granddaughter gonna roll up to a full club, and just flash her ears like they're some obscure but deeply ominous family crest tattoo. And then after she gets drunk and fucks a few guys, she calls up her literal goddess ancestor to tell her about her wild night, and Jade threatens to disown her and bite off her ears if she ever uses a condom again.

Meanwhile Karkat gets lonely, clones himself, spends a few decades engaged in incredibly frustrated failed blackrom, before dying. His clone then gets lonely, and heads back to the ectobiology lab to repeat the cycle.

This doesn't really fit in the /aco/ thread

Cool dank new meme bro, I laughed a lot.

That's an old one, people just haven't been complaining enough for me to repost it.

Yeah, but Cohen made Hiveswap.

is this supposed to be unappealing? Because it sure as fuck is better than what we got.

...

Do you have nothing to contribute to this threads but reposting the same images again and again?

I hope you all have realized Quahog is going to make Joey gay and rub it in our faces

I still hold to hope that everything we've seen of Hiveswap is a ruse and it's really something completely different. Please don't ruin Alternia the same way you ruined everything else.

I followed the guide, so I have no idea what you are referring to.

haha

hehe

So Hussies real self-insert is John?

Which character?

I mean, the answer will be the same for anyone besides Vriska anyway, so it's doesn't really matter.

Shutup Caliborn.

...

Alternia is already ruined by virtue of being Alternia.

John: autistic turned follower
Dave: gay
Rose: gay
Jade: plot device turned waifu

Jake: joke
Dirk: gay
Roxy: waifu turned plot device
Jane: useless fatty

Karkat: impotent/gay
Aradia: waifu
Tavros: joke
Sollux: pointless
Nepeta: autistic
Kanaya: furniture
Terezi: lolrandumb turned mary sue
Vriska: waifu plot device
Equius: joke
Gamzee: joke turned plot device
Eridan: impotent
Feferi: pointless

Aranea: waifu
Meenah: plot device

Calliope: pointless
Caliborn: virtue signaling for why masculinity is bad

Doc Scratch: plot device
Jack/Spades/etc.: antagonist turned joke
Condy: waifu turned pointless
Mayor: joke
PM: pointless

Hussie's self insert: joke turned waifufag
The reader: cucked

Everybody else: pointless

>Jade: plot device turned waifu

How's that different from how she was at the start?

She's even more waifu and plot device now.

>half a year after the "official" ending
>we still don't know how the background big bad behind everything was defeated
>but we sure did see these 2 side characters have a gay jewish wedding
i thought this kind of shit only happened to bad anime
how did we go from and it don't stop and problem sleuth to this. how.
how.

Do what I do, and drown yourself in delusions about how the Epilogue will fix things.

>Rose and Kanaya are now considered side characters

>Rose and Kanaya are now considered one character

>Rose and Kanaya are now one lamp.

>Caliborn

For virtue signaling Caliborn is probably the most inspired character in the roster. Autistic and part of an alien species which requires one personality to smash the other upon reaching adulthood, Caliborn subverted his fate to die to his smarter and smug sister by self mutilation and self determination. He then proceeded to win an impossible game and made all of Paradox Space his bitch.

He also got really damn good at art if Act 7 is any indication.

Why are we supposed to hate him again? Because he wrote horrible fan fiction of a cast of characters and said mean things to the Alpha kid girls?

>And still don't have any character between them

>it's fucking real
HAHAHAHA

Not just that, the first THREE rows are Rosemary. Hussie fucked up.

...

John shoulda spread that bitch like a sandwich.

>Why are we supposed to hate him again? Because he wrote horrible fan fiction of a cast of characters and said mean things to the Alpha kid girls?
Is Caliborn the Trump of Homestuck?

I wonder if there's actually anyone left who unironically still respects the comic outside of Hussie's close-knit circlejerk. I feel like even the tumblrinas are losing interest because there's nothing left to ship

Doesn't even have the best version of john's descent into misanthropy

I like how that picture shows how much the art style of closeup shots changed too.

With every day that passes I am increasingly convinced of one thing.
Though they might have not been taken down on purpose, the MSPA forums still aren't back up because Hussie does not want them to come back up. The WP PR team is made of the stupidest monkeys on Earth, AND/OR something incredibly fishy is going on behind the scenes, because the smell of rot is getting noticeable.

What if, and just hear me out on this one, nobody cares about the fucking forums anymore? There's literally nothing left to discuss besides shitting on Hussie/WP for fucking up this bad, and Hiveswap being a disaster before it even gets released. Hussie will never even speak to anyone outside of his circlejerk ever again, so he has no reason to even have them for himself. It's over, user.

It's pretty transparent to me that Hussie doesn't want the community to have a prominent, "official" place where they can sound off because he knows everyone is very much displeased with the way he's handled the Kickstarter/game and lied out of his ass. Dissatisfaction with the ending and current state of affairs probably had a part, too.

Didn't MSPAF have ANY database backups? I mean, all that discussion being permanently gone is a crime.

>MSPAF has been "temporarily offline for maintenance work" for ages
i just want them to give him a funeral
why are they pretending he's still alive
he's never, ever waking up just let me fucking MOURN HIM YOU BASTARD
>We apologize for any inconvenience-- see you soon!

Silencing the people is fascist. Cohen "A weapon I can get my hands on" Cohenburg is the right-hand man of a fascist con artist.

That's one of the many, many reasons this whole thing is fishy.
I have this handy little flowchart intended for the ones responsible for this mess. I wish they could see it.

You don't spread sandwiches

Yeah but John should spread Rose.

You don't fuck sandwiches either.

>Implying
youtube.com/watch?v=f0e1au1JwQc

The Cohen snapchats should be published under the Paradox Space label.

I know people love to say "Hussie gave up on his own work at such-and-such point" and I roll my eyes every time someone does that shit... but I'm finally crossing the floor because Hussie giving his work to someone else who is just muddling through in some clumsy-as-StarWars-EU story is _careless_.

I think the Huss mentally and emotionally got off the ship when John touched the doorknob, and the last measures of "Even In Death" played. and im 0kay with this. He saw it through to the end. This snapchat stuff is fanfiction.

>literally skipped the climax
>saw it through to the end

> he doesn't fuck his sandwiches
what are you even doing?

>He saw it through to the end.

Yeah in the same way you still ran a marathon, even if you came in last.

In Hussie's case it was more like running the first 18 miles, taking a break, and then just taking a shortcut to the finish line.

Also having someone else run some of the race in his place, and accept the consolation medal in his place. And also he turned gay at the last mile.

...

...

>He saw it through to the end.
>He commissioned the anime ending over a year ago
>used other artists to make the flash before that
>about 2/3 of the way into act 6 literally EVERYONE breaks character and the art style changes
>we already know he gave exclusive access to the comic to his inner circlejerk
>we already know that rachel started editorializing his writing before that
>we also know that hussie gladly handed the reigns of hiveswap over to cohen and a team of people he is barely in contact with
>AND, we know that Cohen is in charge of the snapchat updates, as hussie completely dropped the steaming pile of what's left of the comic into his eager little lap
Saying Hussie saw the comic through to the end is just not realistic. He got right the fuck out and hid behind his ego-stroking circlejerk.

Post best conversation,

are fantrolls still a thing?

Nothing compares.

>make an awesome webcomic in a highly innovative format
>develop your passion project so strongly that you cut of audience suggestions so you can perfectly plot of the entire roller coaster ride to the end
>everything is going fucking great
>introduce trolls, who are intended to be secondary characters to the original protagonists
>suddenly your webcomic becomes a HUGE VIRAL INTERNET CULTURAL SENSATION
>you now experiment: what if you just added a little jab at how silly your fanbase's "shipping" habit is?
>THEY FUCKING EAT IT UP LIKE RAVENOUS PIGS WTF
>decide "hey, I can keep this whole troll thing going for a little longer, right?"
>completely ditch your plans to have the huge twist of the comic be the Alpha kids
>ride the troll train to tumblr town where nothing but ships and cosplay exist
>pretend to go along with it but in a smug way
>get bombarded by vapid fans who completely disrespect your art in favor of being obnoxious little shits and bickering over their crackships
>you've had enough of this shit by now
>but you're still making an assload of money
>decide to kill off the useless fluff trolls so you can get back to the comic while still leaving some of the more popular ones in to keep the rabid fanbase intact
>it kinda works, but it also forces you to flesh out dreambubbles to make sure nobody can be out of the comic forever
>before you realize it, you've written yourself into a corner and have fucked your original story beyond saving
>RETCON TIME: thank god you came up with the scratch.
>however at this point you are so disengaged from the process that you ask your artist connections to lend a hand with your big flash
>you realize you can underpay them and they don't realize it because they are used to jsut doing tumblr commissions
>ride on autopilot to the end while they work for you and suggest things for you to add
>live off of their positive regard while ignoring the fact that you tanked the comic with shipping, retcons, and plot holes

Why is one eye completely black?

I dunno.

>>but we sure did see these 2 side characters have a gay jewish wedding
rose is a main character. kanaya is seconddary but still mainish

where the fuck is this week's snap?
