Anime Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 This is kind of long overdue. Homestuck! I know there's at least two more of you here that read it. Have a topic to chat about it, discuss updates and shipping, all that fun stuff. i blame morgan *absconds* Mouseykins 1 Quote
Ruto Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 You can't blame me, this was your idea! Mouseykins 1 Quote
vasama Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 :O Had to google that "Homestruck" and that thing is hilarious! It reminds me of those text adventure games and I really like it's cool oldskool style and humour. Thanks for bringing this up! :) Quote
Ruto Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Your overdueness has caused this thread to be made right at the start of a hiatus. CONGA RATS. And I am happy you like it so far, vasama. Some people get bored during Act 1 but that's what drew me in in the first place. :( It really isn't as bad as they make it out to be. Quote
Anime Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 People get caught up in the hype of later acts, with everyone going "OMG IT'S SO EPIC" Doesn't start out epic. It starts out incredibly silly with John shooting crap out of his sylladex. It gets epic later. Quote
vasama Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 I really liked ACT 1 and I'm looking forward to the more epic ones. Hopefully I'm able to catch up during the hiatus. Quote
Anime Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 I've heard of people getting caught up in about a week, though they spent a lot of time just reading it. I'm doing a reread right now that's going at about that pace (maybe a little slower because I have class to attend and errands to run, but yeah). Glad you're enjoying it! :D Quote
khaos Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Started reading it about an hour and a half ago and... well, i kinda like it. :P I think I'm in the middle of Act 2 somewhere. Quote
voteforpedro333 Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 I'm in the middle of Act 5.2 somewhere. I've taken huge breaks reading it though. My favorite characters are easily the Exiles and the Felt, even though they're side characters. Quote
Ruto Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Breaks are probably necessary since Act 5 is massive. And the exiles are great. Can't decide on my favorite, though. Quote
khaos Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Just saw the end of Act 3. My reaction? BEST. THING. EVER. Quote
Anime Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 EoA 3 is quite awesome. It really marks where Homestuck starts taking those final steps from Really Silly to Epic. Wait till you get to Cascade. Quote
khaos Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Just finished Act 4. I am breezing through these acts. Quote
Anime Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 Wow, nice pace. I'm in the middle of Act 4 in my reread. I've been distracted today. Also, you read the Intermission, correct? It seems silly but other things make more sense later if you read it! Quote
khaos Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I sort of read it. I didn't think it would have to do much with the story and it was kind of boring to me, so i skipped a bit of it. I only saw the pictures and didn't bother reading some of the text. Quote
Anime Posted July 4, 2012 Author Posted July 4, 2012 You should go back and read it at some point, maybe after you're caught up? It's more interesting when it fits into the story properly and you know how it all goes together, I'll admit. Quote
vasama Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I'm going at much slower pace, just finished act 2. I really liked that ending as well so I can't wait for the end of act 3 and the others. Quote
khaos Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 You should go back and read it at some point, maybe after you're caught up? It's more interesting when it fits into the story properly and you know how it all goes together, I'll admit. I'll probably do that. I think i've already seen some of where it fits in, but I'll finish Act 5 before reading it. This entire topic so far is just saying what people have read and stuff. :P As for shippings: John and Rose Karkat and Pyrope (Matesprit) Karkat and Gamzee (Moirall) I probably have really popular opinions lol Quote
Ruto Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I skipped most of the intermission the first time around too. Went back and read it after I caught up and things made SENSE. And it's good to know where you guys are so we don't accidentally give out spoilers. Quote
Anime Posted July 5, 2012 Author Posted July 5, 2012 Yes, accidental spoilers are bad! I ship... Dave/Jade John/Rose Karkat/Terezi Dave<>Terezi Karkat< 3<Dave ....I like making <3/< 3</<> triangles. Quote
Ruto Posted July 5, 2012 Posted July 5, 2012 But that's only one triangle! You should make more to back up your claim. Quote
Anime Posted July 5, 2012 Author Posted July 5, 2012 Fine then, have my favorite crackship triangle! .....wait it involves an act 6 character. Equius <> Nepeta Nepeta < 3< D--- D--- <3 Equius There. No spoilers. Quote
khaos Posted July 5, 2012 Posted July 5, 2012 lol I'm guessing that's Dirk :whistle: I'm not up to Act 6 yet but I know the characters. Quote
Ruto Posted July 5, 2012 Posted July 5, 2012 That and you can see the 'latest pages' column. :whistle: Quote
Anime Posted July 5, 2012 Author Posted July 5, 2012 Stiiiill! Hussie makes a hilariously big deal of it in the comic so I wasn't going to spoil it. xD Quote
