Well with the release of the new alterniaBound album there is no better time to start one. Radiation Fox is once again a musical god of love. I will be buying this one for sure <3
I'm obsessed someone help me please
There is no cure, only culling.
Read it. Love it. Music's great.
I was actually originally not that impressed with it, since the first several pages are humorous but not particularly exciting. But once you get into the story a ways, you realize it's not just a parody of adventure games, it IS an adventure story. It also gets considerably more epic both with Flash animations, music and sound, and in general tone as the adventure goes along.
The best part is that I haven't thus far seen any ads for this - it's been all word-of-mouth advertising that I'm aware of. Box was the one who first linked me, and I've seen others get infe-I MEAN UH told about it too as more time has gone by.
However, it should be noted that it uses a lot of foul language at times, often overdone for the humor factor; also various forms of innuendo and bloody violence. This may not be for everyone.
And a separate but perhaps more dire warning is that once you get involved in it, it is difficult to get out of it. Similar to TVTropes in that respect.
to be fair the first few pages of homestuck are slow and aimless because firstly it's introducing people to a new universe, secondly it was driven almost entirely by user input, which is a format that has been superceded by Hussie taking complete creative control as of Act 5 now that all of the core concepts are in place and understood, and also by consideration of the fact that it was immediately preceded by Problem Sleuth, which was user-controlled throughout and a lot more whimsicle, experimental and comedic than Homestuck.
fwiw i've been reading MSPA since about halfway through Problem Sleuth (thanks to Ryan), and happened to be the one to introduce susan to it, which is weird since she's now amore avid fan than i am
oh and i happen to be wearing my sollux t-shirt right now
APPROPRIATE SIG TIME
The comic that introduces Dave's brother and his 'battle technique' is incredible.
HOMESTUCK!!! I loves me some of this, it's web"comics" at it's finest.
This is the first thing I've even been into which has made me consider cosplay fancy dress. Oh. My. God.
Still kind of conflicted about KitaCon :<
I am a massive hypocrite i swear hahahahahahaha
Tried it, didn't like it.

Honestly, you people are so easily offended by the slightest little comments, get back down the data mines where you belong.

Yeah, it does kind of suck you in like that, delve too deep and you find yourself doing nothing else.
And in keeping with My Little Pony leaking into everything, here's a Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff/MLP amalgamation. Warning though for crude language, and it will ONLY be funny if you know what kind of style Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff is. Which means you'd have to read it.
My interest in Homestuck began to steadily wane from the moment of the Hivebent "Intermission." I don't care for the trolls, and their respective speech impediments means reading their text logs is such a chore. I actually stopped reading for a bit during Hivebent and came back when it was done. I still like MSPA, just not as much as I used to.
You know, I kind of like the design of THE TUMOUR because I dig the whole black and white yin-yang thing, but isn't it a little dull?
I will say that I started enjoying the trolls much more starting with the first Alterniabound playable segment. I just think Hussie needed a better way to present their dialogue than ZOMG WALL OF TEXT
John...
... what are you going to do with that stuffed toy that you're imagining as Liv Tyler?
VHY HAHVEN'T ANY OF PRAISED THAH GLORY AHND BEAUTY OF THAH WAHRHAHMMER OF ZILLYHOO!?
You all disgust me!
I've been listening to it every time I get onto the computer today, man, been a little busy with that to post about it here. XD;
Ah. You ahr excused then.
The rest of you disgust me until further notice.
Wow, I don't want to say much about the Flash since I might spoil whoever's reading this so I'm just going to say the music was awesome and it fit the mood very well.
I pretty much stuck that music on repeat for my morning once I was done with the grimdark exploration.
Because dang that was sweet.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
He'll be alright he hasn't had his first/last convo with Karkat yet... right?
You've filled me with hope.
Thank you.
Careful with hope, CT, time can be a fickle timey wimey thing.
Though didn't Scratch say God Tiers could only be killed if the death was heroic or just?
That death CERTAINLY wasn't heroic or just so John's probably fine even without the future telling us so...
Let's just hope Rosie's powerful enough now to take him on. ._.
EDIT: Those are some pretty sweet fighting game-esque sprites!
No...
BONKBONKBONKBONKBONKBONKBONK
Well played hussie
I read this.
I don't see how Rose will die her dreamself is still alive. That or I missed an update when it got killed.
BLUH BLUH. =O
I follow it.
Well I say I follow it, more accurately, I read it. I only follow what's actually going on about half the time.
OH GOD NO! D=
Terezi, Karkat, say it ain't so.
The only thing that can make up for this is an epic music album. Oh wait.
