Yeah.

Absolutely

Hell yes.
probmel sleuth > acts 1-4 homestuck
> caliborn >most of act 6

Problem Sleuth is all well and good, but I never felt invested in it like I was with Homestuck.

The answer is technically yes only because reading nothing is better than reading homestuck.

Going through hussie's incredibly pedantic writing becomes a chore in both stories.

Being a finished story helps.

invested like literally because you gave his kickstarter money?

for real I was way into Homestuck at first just because it was innovative. Any criticism about how it's story was plodding pandering bullshit are totally valid but the format of the comic was unprecedented, the full integration of text, art, gifs, flash, the enormous collaborative aspects it took on (which later on pretty much ruined it) was all so impressive and modern. I was absolutely the fuck hooked in until after the kickstarter when updates slowed down to a trickle and he introduced the eighth or ninth fucking cast of new characters. I stopped reading it eventually and from what I hear the whole thing basically collapsed in on itself and the ending was dissatisfying to everyone. Problem Sleuth was perfect though.

Definitely.

yes
mainly because it didn't try to take itself seriously

>characters have goals and constant personalities throughout the whole thing
>callbacks happen referencing earlier parts of the comic
>SEPULCHRITUDE
>the ending has a satisfying finish (after The End)
>is consistently funny
Problem Sleuth was as a whole work better than the whole work that was Homestuck. Homestuck' highs outstripped PS but it isn't enough to place it at top with all the other baggage dragging HS down.

>nobody's character destroyed to appeal to teen girls

Yes. If you absolutely can not go without reading any of Hussie's work it should be PS.

I don't remember most of what happened but I do remember liking it

It was good.
Yes.

Did we ever find out what the poster and hammer made?

My guess is Candy Corn Hammer, no special powers or anything just a hammer made of Candy Corn.

Homestuck has better high points, Problem Sleuth is better as a complete package.

Zillyhoo

I thought that was something else?

Nope. Remember different combinations can produce the same thing.

...

I wish Homestuck was a bannable offence again.

I wish Homestuck had a good ending.

...

I remember the first action I suggested making it into PS, I'm way more invested in it than I ever was in Homestuck.

Problem Sleuth being better than Homestuck isn't an opinion, it's a fact.

What page?

mspaintadventures.com/?s=4&p=001449

this one, I entered it on a whim and like 3 people followed up with the same one. Hussie did an amazing job running with the better ideas from participants in suggestions.

...

kek, nice job dubanon

...

The filename made me think it was something better

...

no

>not wanting to feel up Rose's ass

MEU

hornse

Inarguably.

a good story has a beginning, a middle and an end.
Problem Sleuth is a good story.

Yes, it actually completes its story, for one.

yeah though i'd say PI gets misinterpreted to be a woobie instead of some creepy drunk shut-in

...

Whatever happened to Hiveswap? What is the latest word on the delays?

It was released a few weeks ago, they're planning to release the next one in like six months according to rumors I have heard. It did well enough to warrant continuing, I guess

Who even cares at this point? Homestuck ended in 2013 for me.

PI got a girlfriend though.

It got released. Joey is cute and is a canon breedslut.

Homestuck was more ambitious but Problem Sleuth stuck the landing.

Nobody remembers those who tried and failed.

God speed, Snoop Bust you beautiful bastard

PS is cool. Its silly but manages to come back around to make all the dumb and weird shit either matter or at least entertaining enough not to be a waste of time

youtube.com/watch?v=ArN_dERudNg

That's what made the ending so damn good. It brought all the elements together. Homestuck did not.

What a terri8le ship!

...

>Nepeta holding a monkey paw and wishing that Karezi gets sunk

Why doesn't Davepeta just date Karkat

Yes, and yes.

friendlybatteringram.tumblr.com/post/154947724188/altstuck

She's related to the Egberts/Harleys right? It's well established that all Egberts/Harleys are either studs or breedsluts.

Cause they went for dog instead

>they
Davesprite*

Humanimals was Hussie's magnum opus and Whistles deserves a proper ending.

Why? Only the Dave part wants the dog, the Nepeta part still wants Karkat. They'd be a better fit for Karkat at that point.

>you will never see Whistles finished
IT COULD HAVE BEEN GREAT

Jude exhibits no signs of anything though, only Joey

Because Karkat's already taken for 3 years, user, and Davepeta said they were a new person so they weren't going to act on it. Also because Karkat didn't give a shit about Nepeta.

PS was the greatest, I remember being blown away when they took my suggestion in the story.

If Karkat was already taken for three years, why did Dave run off with the dog anyway.
If Davepeta is a new person why are they basically just Dave but badly written?
If Davepeta is a new person what reason would Jade have to give a shit about them?
If Davepeta is a new person who doesn't act on their old components' feelings why did they go for Jade?
Why is Davepeta so bad?

Gay singularity.

Hussie ultimately didn't have the balls for that. Evidently not all of him died with his dad.

Don't just say that man, share the page!

>inb4 it was just a ploy to string davejade shippers along to buy the epilogue book

>strung along
>davekat shippers the only one still reading, fingers crossed for Hussie to reveal that Jade is just somehow a roomate in Karkat's one bedroom house.

For him to string along Davejade shippers there'd have to be any shippers other than the bottom-of-the-barrel, thinks-homestucks-central-theme-is-gay-love-healing-all, 16 year old ace/pan/potato libra complains about Joey Claire porn and tries to dox the people who draw porn of her teenage dumbasses.

...

don't just necrobump with shit art.

This isnt /hsg/

Don't tell me what to do, you're not my mom.

I managed to figure out along with about two other people that the tectrix of the arbiter was gonna come back, but I knew it was last seen with PI. I was the one that suggested he should have been hiding in his hat the whole time.

In retrospect this about one of the saddest goddamn things I've ever read. Homestuck could have been so amazing.

>Is it better than Homestuck?
Infinitely.

Problem sleuth was light on characters and so didn't run into Hussie's big weaknesses. Or become Deviantart pandering Hot Topic trash, as Homestuck did the instant the trolls entered the spotlight.

>mfw someone creates a thread then replies to it themselves
>no face when
>its what pathetic

Who? Karkats already with Terezi

Having reread it in one sitting a couple of days ago, I can confidently say it's funny and uses Hussie's love of breaking repetition better than Homestuck. The fact that it essentially has 4 characters doesn't hurt either.

that's so cool

i remember the guy who submitted the first "pose as a team, cause shit just got real" prompt used to post here too

...

HAHAHAHAHA

Rubyquest was better.

Did they fug?

...

I fucking loved Problem Sleuth (And really, all of the MsPaint adventures before it too, jailbreak, the one about the codpiece) with a passion

So, at first I was happy that with homestuck there would be something new. But I never enjoyed it, and dropped off rather soon. Just, didnt have the same charm

>the one about the codpiece
Bard Quest, which was all too short unfortunately.

Why did he cancel it anyway?

youtube.com/watch?v=C5ioD3KcVSE

Too much effort for too little payoff to draw every possible path probably.

Eww fuck no. That beautiful goddess should never even consider stooping to THAT level.

Reminder that Vriska was unconscious and in Equius' care for who knows how long, when he made the robot arm.

VRISKA IS A DIRTY SMELLY WHORE!

I'm rereading some parts of PS right now and holy shit, I may have to reread it all because it's funny as fuck, the aspect portals are a stroke of genius

This. Homestuck made great use of its format and was a great experiment to follow, but as a piece o media it simply didn't work
