Voice your woes or whatever
Fuck it, Homestuck thread
I still want to fug the bugs
Where are the people
I am praying for you if you still care about Homestuck in 2025
Do you think that there could ever be a satisfactory Sburb video game? Like, one that assigned you a class, aspect, lunar sway, a planet and denizen, then let you explore the Land, interact with consorts, alchemize equipment and weapons, and engage in shenanigans? Instead of multiplayer, there's a roster of characters with set personalities and patterns who get randomly assigned to your session with each new game, whom you can manage relationships with, fight alongside or against while trying to beat the game?
No but there will be people delusion enough to believe it.
Wait until next week.
so next act on 4/13?
OLLIE OUTY
RUIN CONVENTIONS
DESTROY NEWGROUNDS
BUILD A ROBOT
The problem, anon, is that the only way for SBURB to be a real game is for real life to be SBURB, which it is.
Ay yo fuck June Niggas! Fuck that lill nigga bb-panzu! Corny ass mother fucker!!!
Jegbert?
Jegbert?
Aye yo fuck June Niggers!!!
I fucking love Homestuck so much.
I fucking hate Homestuck so much.
I fucking dislike posers who join a fandom only to performatively shit on it because they’re mad at its creator’s fetish character a lot.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) most people here shitting on Homestuck are not being performative at all.
Yes, actually. AI makes Sburb a lot more possible than before.
Even now, I love JadeRose
LESS BEANS! XD
remember when this was the crackest of crack ships
Not really. Guns'n'Roses has always been around.
As something that wasn't taken remotely seriously until the epilogues
Shippers have always taken shipping seriously.
You think Hussie made up Nepeta wholecloth?
We're all Homestucked out after that april fool's day. Let's just recharge our batteries until 4/13.
Maybe this year’s 4/13 will merit Vriska showing up and playing hypno-dominoes with the anons there. Or at least with me!
Clubs Deuce: Run headfirst into the second tower.
homestuck.com has been down for two whole months and nothing has been done about it (although you can still read the MSPFA mirror)
The absoluto state.
Correction: I *can’t* read the MSPFA mirror because it has Grant’s semen smeared all over it.
Dream Bubbles were a mistake.
I was kind of hoping we'd see Lord English leading the casino with The Handmaid as arm candy.
Meant to post this in a previous thread.
I have compiled extensive notes this.
tl;dr:
A Before mothergrubs, trolls used to reproduce normally
B Sburb used information from Universe A to shape earth's life, as has already implied for other aspects of Earth, hench why trolls look like humans
C Trolls retain their vestigial sex organs, which have been repurposed to provide egg cells & sperm to the mothergrub, and certain conditions can revert them back e.g. female troll's wombs work again and their ovaries retain egg cells instead of excreting them.
D When making Universe B, the info Sburb used included the DNA of trolls. The lifeforms on earth still evolve, but sburb guides that evolution as needed to a specific goal.
Also:
Canonically Alternia has carbon-based lifeforms using DNA for storing genetic info. Since dna determines appearance humans dna would need very similar to trolls to look so similar
Sburb needs an intelligent race to play it. The previous players' session won, so there's insentive to create a species similar to them
Sburb is the universe' reproductive process, and just as normal life inherits genes from their parents, universe B inherits information from Universe A including info about Alternia
Sburb functions like a program so it makes sense for it to use the genetic data when setting up the 'player' species
With this established, its reasonable to assume trolls and humans could be made compatible via minimal genetic altering. Less so for them to already be compatible, as vestigial traits can't always be re-expressed and not all closely related species can procreate together, but is easily justifiable with the above theories. And yes, we can assume troll breasts used to/can again produce milk.
Now I'm interested in your headcanons on how troll/human hybrids":
How would horns, blood color/caste traits, psychic powers work for them?
Do they begin as babies or grubs? Depends on the mother's race?
Would girl trolls lay eggs?
Nihkee..
/hsg/ /dbs/ crossover when
I am owning Caliborn haters rn
My best friend worked on it, its best art pleasures my eyeballs like nothing else, I must perpetuate final confrontation over it.
based
The generals wouldn't need to be posted in every day. It's just nice having somewhere comfy to discuss the good (everything up to act 5), bad (everything after act 5).
You can find imageboard lists online.
I suggest looking for one to get a bunker on.
That way you can have a general without it getting nuked.
You could either try making generals on another Anon Babble (or other board), or getting an entire board dedicated to /hsg/.
Anon, we've had places to "bunker" and whatnot. There's nothing left TO discuss. Homestuck has been over for 9 years. It's just an endless funeral at this point.
The threads from a few weeks ago wouldn't have took off if that were true. Besides, there's nothing new under the sun anyway.
Why not discuss ships, or other fan content? Or make some?
ships
other fan content
Literally part of what's wrong with Homestuck discussion.
The threads from a few weeks ago wouldn't have took off if that were true.
You mean the Beyond Canon upd8 threads? They always have one that spikes to 500 real quick then it all tapers off.
And it's always the same subjects. Moaning about Beyond Canon. Moaning about the Epilogues. Moaning about Act 7. Moaning about later Act 6. Moaning about earlier Act 6. Moaning about Act 5 Act 2. Moaning about Homestuck's existence in general, followed by feigning veneration in Problem Sleuth.
And when people post ships all you get are people decrying those ships. Because it is an endless funeral, filled with moaning.
And the fan content has tapered to a trickle because Homestuck has been over for 9 years.
Depends on how random it needs to be in order to be 'satisfactory'.
AI would be the most expansive option, as pointed out. However, I feel a more intentional design would be better. It would still have random elements but not to the extreme degree of the comic. The kernel sprites, for example, could be prototyped with a relatively smaller amount of items than say everything in the house, which would allow for more in-depth personalities to be written for each prototype option.
And it's always the same subjects.
Kind of like every other thread in Anon Babble is the same subjects repeated ad infinitum.
I see no difference.
If people don't feel like talking about homosuck much then there would simply be less threads made. I imagine the same amount there have been here except with the difference of them not being nuked.
Moaning about Act 5
If you mean praising it.
feigning veneration in Problem Sleuth
There's no feigning. Problem Sleuth was the height of Hussie's work, if only because he messed up Homestuck so much.
Judging by your tone, I'd take it you would be happy if >we were talking positively about a webcomic that's been dead for 9 years?
Why don't you start talking about something else then, since it doesn't matter if this thread stays on topic anyway. How about Deltarune?
If you mean praising it.
No, there's always the more sanctimonious folk who decry the growing focus upon the trolls and claim that the rot started there.

It is obviously feigned and your posturing is just as artificial. Yes, Problem Sleuth has fewer flaws, but pretending it was the perfect experience is just trying to one-up the next pessimist with yet greater pessimism.
Judging by your tone, I'd take it you would be happy if >we were talking positively about a webcomic that's been dead for 9 years?
I'd be happier if people posted what they liked instead of a perpetual cycle of hatred and vitriol, yes. It's the conduct I try to maintain after all. I always tend to enter these threads with something I love.

Chapters 3&4 in two months, looking forward to it. I've haunted /utg/ as long as I have these threads.
sanctimonious
What?
the growing focus upon the trolls and claim that the rot started there
It kinda was, but only in the sense that it was the domino which led to it.
But it's not as if Trolls as a concept inevitably had to cause it.
As a side note, do you think there was any rot in homestuck?
obviously feigned
You sound genuinely angry. The reason most people consider problem sleuth better is because its the more consistently
I'd be happier if people posted what they liked
They do. If you'd like me to do so now, I'll mention that the entire "OST" of Homestuck was great. Its been a while since I listened to it, but I don't think there was a single disappointing track from start to finish. The flash, one of the aspects which made Homestuck stand out, owed as much to the music as they did to the animations. Maybe moreso.
As for fan content. I don't see people talk about fankids (as in children of the characters) much these days. Maybe because Beyond Canon provided "canon" examples.
But that's beside the point. I'm interested in hearing about any existing/new oc children of various ships folks have come up with. What personalities do they have, and what sort of parents would the ship they're the product of be.
What?
The type of poster who wants greater cynic cred by hating the things that other people enjoyed because they can find flaws and anything with flaws cannot be tolerated by the MORE CYNICAL. And whoever gets to be the most cynical gets the Anon Babble crown to be king cynic for the thread.
As a side note, do you think there was any rot in homestuck?
I do think it's fair to note how Hussie lost the trail of his own narrative. Act 7 was some serious whiplash returning to a narrative that basically didn't exist anymore and hadn't for at least five years.
The reason most people consider problem sleuth better is because its the more consistently
Yes, and you're allowed to like whatever you want. I'm talking about the performative shitting on Homestuck that goes on in these threads, not saying nobody likes Problem Sleuth.

The OST is certainly something that will always last the test of time. I always enjoy Sunsetter, and like to imagine some kind of credits sequence running to it whenever I listen to it.
"I'm never releasing the classpect document btw. You fuckers have to figure that shit out yourself."
-Andrew Hussie
You are almost certain Andrew Hussie said that.
I don't know what to tell you anon. It's fun to vent your frustrations on something with those who share those frustrations. Why do you think people need to vent in the first place?
Everyone at some level has this.
I know how this will sound, especially here of all places, but have you tried the homestuck subreddit. There's generally less negativity there.
This is an imageboard after all.

I also liked that the comic used multiple different artstyles. Early on, it seemed like as the story got more complete the art was getting more complete to match it. Of course, there reached a point where all the art styles were used at regular intervals for the most part, so I don't think that was Hussie's intention after all. But the use of different artstyles was still cool all the same.
