Why did LE hide that terminal thing to contact Karkat inside a vault?

Why did LE hide that terminal thing to contact Karkat inside a vault?

Was this the panel that killed Homestuck?

He didn't. He hid the entrance to the facility by building a mansion over it, a mansion he would one day lure Spades Slick into, beginning Spades' journey towards ending the Universe, and also guiding Karkat and the Trolls towards their part in creating LE.

I can find no fault with your reasoning there. Solid work. A+

...

>implying he needed Karkat

What compels people to create something so ugly?

Because they're ugly.

It's funny, because Hussie said the only race the explicitly aren't is black.

All the kids are beautiful gods.

[S] Cascade was the turning point where Homestuck became a lazy boring mess

The flash itself was great though

Yeah and Dave's hair is a bird, doesn't stop stupidity.

What was your favorite plot point in the comic?

Personally I have fond memories of learning about the Battlefield, its place in the SBURB cosmology, and WV's rebellion.
A humble farmer-pawn wanting to bring an end to an endless cosmic-stakes war between two chess armies is just cool as hell.

Karkat drowning in magma

The cosmic cold war, and the realization that the thin veneer of child friendly video games is simply a method of control.

Can we stop with the meme that the trolls ruined the comic? They never caused Hussie to write a rushed ending, to waste all his time on a Kickstarter video game, to flanderize characters such as Rose, or to let other writers write the fucking comic.

They did cause the comic to lose focus and grow in scope, the underlying issues which caused most of those problems.

VISUAL
COMIC

Dave should have straight hair and massive eyebrows

But they did.

They attracted the worst kind of people, people would rather give a fuck about Karkat's romance problem or Vriska's complicated life than the four main kids and Hiveswap was pitched as a video game idea.

Growing in scope wasn't an issue in itself, but he just didn't rein it in at the right moment.

The definitive moment that the comic really skipped a beat and never got back into it was when Dreambubbles went from weird horrorterror nightmare afterlife to a Get Out Of Death Free card, especially since it solidified the notion of Ultimate Selves which is some of the biggest bullshit in the comic. Even Lord English couldn't pull it back from that and I'd say it caused the vast majority of the narrative issues from there on out. The only plot device that was indisputably more obnoxious and disruptive was the retcon icon.

The trolls would have been just fine if once they died they stayed dead and you didn't see them again outside of the nightmares of other characters. MAYBE they could still be resurrected from there, but they're otherwise out of the story.

Apparently reddit is convinced that chuck tingle is Andrew Hussie

What if he is?

>let some chucklefuck with a Twitter take over his million dollar trainwreck to write meta-erotica on Amazon
>IPGD edits
I could see it. It doesn't seem totally in his style but he's definitely changed in some huge way over the years, may as well be like this.

>During Donald Trump's presidential campaign, Tingle created the web site TrumpDebateFacts.com, which purports to fact-check various imaginary Trump claims, mostly attempts to hide Trump's supposed non-human origins (such as "I am not a poorly disguised mass of crabs wearing the skin of bloated human").
i cant believe alt right is homestuck

If I were Chuck Tingle I'd feel insulted

>implying Nussie won't change Dave's hair to piss you off

All the self-fulfilling prophecies, and just figuring out the mechanics of SBURB early on was what got me hooked.

Tingle is too clever

Which epilogue is the worst?

>A: Hussie confirms all oldfag ships again such as JohnVriska and Karezi and the whole epilogue is shipping stuff

>B: Epilogue is actually Act 8 and Homestuck still continues

>C: Davekat gets confirmed, John is in a threesome with the Scourge Sisters and and the four kids fight against Lord English and defeat him once and for all

How is confirming oldfag ships a bad thing?

t. oldfag

How is oldfag an insult?

...

the comic was ruined twice. once it was ruined with the trolls. however, it was still salvageable despite the destruction. the second time was around the hiatuses/retcon/ending. this time it got completely blew out with no hope of recovering.

Apparently liking quality is supposed to be insulting to some stupid people.

B is the worst and it would still be the worst compared to the most horrible epilogue scenarios you can come up with.

Let it fucking end.

...

I don't understand why people insist on drawing Dave as black with blond hair. His skin and hair are the same color in the comic. If you make his skin black you can also make his hair black. He's not fucking Drebin

...

>liking quality

Nigga this a Homestuck thread. We passed that point years ago.

...

scan it senpai

I am black, and even I think this is racist - a bunch of white girls putting "black" features on a racially ambiguous character... it's always this ugly poop shade of brown for skin since they've never actually seen (or just don't actually care) that black people come in different shades. The hair is ALWAYS an Afro and chances are if a black person dyes their hair blonde they're not going to wear it in a god damn Afro. The noses are always HUGE. The lips are always HUGE. It's always the black "head canons" that don't shave their legs or brush their teeth or whatever.

Tumblr is just as racist as Sup Forums... god at least people own up to it and make a joke out of it here instead of making things awkward at best but mostly just make things worse while screaming that their bullshit is happy.

Fuck, I'm mostly mad at that ugly ass Jade being actual we love fine merch.

*happy = helping

hahahaha how does it feel to have your entire race co-opted for a bunch of stupid fat white girl fujos to feel better about themselves and their lack of any worthwhile contribution to life

C

I would be willing to suffer Davekat to get a decent ending.

>wanting C
>not knowing the consequences of fucking Davekat

The only consequence is writing them both off. Which I've already done.

i should update my good diversity work

The idea is that the epilogue doesn't resolve ANY plotlines, while C has a bad ship confirmed but plot resolution.

You don't get it.

C confirms two bad ships. John Harem and Davekat.

We bitch about Davekat and Tumblr/Reddit bitch about the John Harem ship.

No one gives a fucking shit about the plot resolution when Hussie creates a fucking shitstorm that will make Homestuck only be remembered for retarded ships.

I can live with John harem. I'm a filthy John/Vris fag, so as stupid as John having a blackrom relationship is, I can deal.

...

...

>Homestuck went to shit because he couldn't balance his time between writing Homestuck and writing about inanimate objects butt fucking a guy
I really hope he isn't.

He isn't. We've seen enough of Hussie's writing style in his blog, Wizard Herbert, etc. to get a good grasp on his voice, and Chuck Tingle does not have it. Chuck Tingle also isn't very funny, relying almost wholly on the absurd scenarios to coast to the end.

Why the fuck would people not choose A or C if you aren't a Davekat fan or actually believe some dumb crackship like Karkat/Vriska (fucking Arquiussprite/Vriska and Davepeta/Karkat are more likely lmao you losers) will happen instead.

Because wanting B implies that you have hope that Hussie could get it together IF HE JUST HAD MORE TIME! Because 8 years is somehow too constricting of a time frame.

...

Does this describe the Trolls?

...

Hussie ruined KarkatKanaya, another crime of his.

I know people shit on Act 5 but having started a reread, I can barely read through the start of Act 6 without being bored

>Gamzee
>Good in everything

...

I-Is Kanaya a c-c-cuck?

...

C

You're pushing this meme hard.

The trolls were, in all seriousness, fine in their original role as minor antagonists who explained the consequences of failing the game.

The problem is when Hussie followed the money and let them take over the comic, rewriting it to be troll-focused and ultimately causing the character bloat that led to the weakening of the main kid cast that had attracted a lot of the original fans.

What the hell? I just hid a Homestuck thread.

Go away your stupid fucking comic is dead.

John getting stuck with those two sociopaths is horrible.

Like I get it you think a crazy dominating girl would be a hot lay but come ON.

And remember, the one everyone got mad at was a harmless, cute JohnRose shirt.

...

>Rosemary fans: Unreasonable, angry warmongers who act on emotion
JohnRose fans: Enlightened diplomats who can control themselves

>not using the filter

Hey if you're that dude who asked for that JohnRose prompt last month, I've got a preview up on /aco/'s thread. The mods deleted it here or I'd post.

I'm like 2/3rds done but I figure something to let you know I'm on the way'd be appreciated. Sorry for the delay, long story.

also there's a beach party scene i have no fucking control of myself.

...

Did fantrolls contribute to the downfall of Homestuck?

Not really, they're just flat retardation of little importance.

Nep didn't deserve her fate

Hey, if you got the downs, avoid the clowns. She got what she deserved.

doesn't his Bard class give him the Wild Card, the ability to use any weapon or device from any other class?

Yes she did.

...

>Hey if you're that dude who asked for that JohnRose prompt last month
I'm not. Also there's a mad janny here who hates any off-site link, regardless of porn status.

This Jade is as bad as Caveman Jade.

And the subtleties in Dave and Rose also trigger my autism.

I mean, dye her hair black and she's fine. Jade can be pale and have freckles. And I guess Dave with an actual tan makes sense: Dude spent his life outside in Houston, which in the Homestuck universe has a giant sun blazing down on it at all times.

You missed the side cut with her dead dog's head in it.

>kids get memorial tattoos:
>John: For Dad
>Rose: RIP Mom
>Jade: DOG

>Stupid sidecut
>Vacant bitch face
>Revealing clothes
>Jade doesn't have freckles, it's a visual comic, you can see the fucking characters
>Dr. Who shirt, despite Jade not knowing about Dr. Who, and gee, I wonder if the artist likes Dr. Who?

If not for the stupid cut in of Bec's head, there would be literally nothing indicating that this is Jade.

As for Dave;
>No Shades
>Stupid asshole smirk
>Wearing power colours
>Wearing power colours at what is clearly a casual get together

>implying Jade isn't a vacant bitch who would wear revealing clothes

Man an older Dave would absolutely wear a power tie for irony's sake.

Jade looks nothing like Jade, yeah. I'm fine with her showing some skin but there's no real feel of the character in the design. And if you wanna do a pop culture t shirt, why not a cartoon? You know, Jade's canon nerdy interest?

...

that 63 karkat has got my engines going

Aside from the Three in the Morning Dress, which was a classy cocktail dress, everything Jade has worn has covered her from toes to neck.

>Man an older Dave would absolutely wear a power tie for irony's sake.
Look at that stupid fucking face, that's the face of a prick who clearly thinks that his fashion sense is "alpha".

>canon nerdy interest?

Did she ever really like cartoons out of the two she supposedly watched?

>Aside from the Three in the Morning Dress

You mean the sluttiest dress in the comic?

...

dave kind of is a prick who cares about fashion
he's ironic but not so ironic that you'll see him walking around in a full body pepe suit
he'd just have a pepe pin on the lapel of some classy ass james bond shit

I thought it was vriska
