Homestuck.XYZ 2.0

the fact that it updated monthly (mostly) means that there was feedback, and the team could, hopefully, incorporate some of it in the work. now that's... well, not possible now. I'm fine with losing that aspect. Having Ultimate Dirk act as pseudo voice of the fandom was interesting at first but ove...

If only there was a news section on the actual comic site. So that information just about the comic in general and not tied to crowd funding or behind the scenes tidbits could be shared on mass so people know when to check back in for the next scheduled update.

no because some kids were mean to us on twitter so we gotta shittalk them using the comic Reminds me of earlier criticism of I want to say of either Candy timeline or Pesterquest (Posssibly both) where Ult Dirk basically voiced the common writing complaints. Just because you acknowledge in the work...

It certainly was a chapter that has been released

Alright, Lich Casey wasn't something I knew I wanted but after reading the words I now want nothing else from Homestuck Squared but Lich Casey

Few troubles actually getting the update to load. Think it might be because of when the update got posted and Patreon trying to process who is and isn't allowed it see it. Looks like Dirk got a quick peek into Candy and hard confirmed a few things with a retired author. I really like when Ult! Dirk ...

Throw in a quick shout out to Auto Responder and I think Locked Timelines are the 'canon' name for fan fiction/fan works.' Putting them out of the grasp of both the canon authors and Ultimate Dirk's splinters.

Well, I think that route actually got me on team Ultimate Dirk. The undercurrent of dissatisfaction of Pesterquest/Friendsim actually being given a voice and acknowledged. Maybe Dirk knows what he is doing and we should trust him on this one.

I didn't know Diamond's Droog, Dad Crocker and Problem Sleuth was a team up I wanted but damn if this isn't amazing already.

New chapter out and one that finally has Jade doing something (Kinda.) Love the return of the death clock, some more alt callie characterisation and a brief look at how arbitrary 'just' and 'heroic' really are as metrics.

I wasn't about the hair on her sprite at first bit seeing her in different poses and realising that it is literally just a mess from drinking and isolation the art grew on me.

also omg where the fuck are they? O>o

Some combo of Problem Sleuth world and Midnight City. We got Dad Crocker dragging around Slick, a portrait of Snowman, a poster of Madam Murel and what looks like the Felt's Matchsticks playing the drums in the club band.

Haven't there being other attempts to subvert the game and have them not end as expected tm ? The trolls tried to run two separate instances of the game to compete against eachother to win first but ended up with double helix bullshit. The cherub session ended up being void, single-player and unable...

I want to know if there is substantial Carapace Content (tm)

Not really? It's basically a summary of early Earth C government.

For what ends up being a wall of text at the end at least this shows how Earth C works although a few things stand out as being problems. A kingdom losing seats in the house over low voter turn out and a political party can at most have 1/4 of the seats in the house, postal workers acting as the cou...

It just felt like a route for people who don't like Eridan to start to like Eridan now, leaving original fans of Eridan in the dust with our overdramatic genocide complex lad. Pretty much this. It looked like Eridan and hit most of the Eridan notes you think of when Eridan comes to mind but the ent...

Both of the routes were sorta bad. Both of them didn't feel like there was much character agency. Eridan's route started well enough, calling the MC a friendslut, hitting the usual pompous eridan notes but the extortion attempt felt really... Off. Not to say that Eridan is above trying to force peop...

When she never struggles with the desire to drink blood.

Pretty much, outside of glowing from time to time and like one joke screen where a mindjacked Jane is selling her special 'potions' of troll blood Gamzee bottled Kanaya being a rainbow drinker is kinda... Eh?

How the goal is written still confuses me. Does it mean that if we keep that number up until the 1st we get double uploads for Jan and Feb or if we keep it up until Feb 1st We get double uploads in March?

Part 2 of the update is out, Vriska is now Vrissy and (Vriska) is once again Vriska. Also kinda sad we aren't doing Weekend at Bernie's where the Vriskas have to puppet Gamzee around.
