      I honestly think we only stood to gain from that, though.
      One of the biggest advantages of a large cast is that whenever the pacing begins to slow, you can change focus.
      Similarly, if the comic had progressed smoothly, Andrew couldn't have kept up with the pace of his narrative, so he used things like the glitches to slow the pacing.

      This was one of my favorite songs when I first started reading Homestuck. I had stopped reading it for about three years, then one day CZcams gave me this song in my recommended. I got to relive all of the emotions I had when I first listened to it and first started reading Homestuck, which led me to reread what I had and eventually finish it. It's still one of my favorite songs, probably like in general and not just Homestuck-related and always one of the first songs I recommend to people interested in Homestuck. I could go on and on about how much I appreciate this song, but I think I've gone on a bit already. I'll end by saying that you're super talented and thank you for creating this song! :)

    I realized why Captors associate with bees. Bees can deliver a mighty sting, but only do so when it's very necessary. And when they sting, *they die* defending what they stand for. Or if they're *LUCKY*, they get TWO chances to attack.

Happy to announce it still holds up after years of not hearing it. I have been a fan since 2012, but fell out of it years ago too. I miss it, I was thinking of reading it over the summer once my university term ends :D I wish you luck on finishing the comic!

    Oh God. OH GOD. I just remembered.
    Castor and Pollux, the twins of mythology? One was dead the other immortal and the immortal was so heartbroken at the death of his brother their father Zeus put them both up as Gemini so they could be together.
    The Psiionic? He lost everyone and was forced to live as a glorified warp drive engine.
    Sollux? He tried to save everyone but died of the attempt even though he succeeded.
    Mituna? He lost his mind.

      @darkseraph2009 Před 3 lety +84

      Another version of the myth has One being the son of Zeus, and the other the son of a mortal (yet still twins somehow). When the mortal Pollux died, Castor begged Zeus to let them share his immortality. He agreed, so they could stay together: six months on olympus, and six in hades.
      This connects to sollux's two dreamselves (one near the heavens of skaia, one near the abyss of the furthest ring), and his eventual half-dead status.

      Equius Zahhak (source : mspa wiki ) "After the Disciple was spared by the E%ecutor, and the Dolorosa sold into slavery, the Ψiioniic was "enlisted in a far worse, if more prestigious service": being grafted to the flagship of the Condesce. He was forced to serve as its Helmsman, directing and powering the engine with his psychic abilities as a living battery. It was during his tenure here that the Condesce apparently grew fond of him, increasing his lifespan with her 'touch' until he finally died as a result of the Vast Glub while traveling back to the troll home planet."

    Listening to this brings me back to 2011 when I first discovered Homestuck. Those first 5 acts were such a magical experience, and the crossing over of different narratives and characters' perspectives was so impressively well done I almost thought there would never be anything like Homestuck ever again. It made me totally rethink what I knew about story-telling. It was _this close_ to being a legitimate, modern day epic, on the same scale as Homer's Odyssey, no joke. It's really too bad Hussie shit the bed with the ending. He could have had something really fucking amazing on his hands, but he landed about 30 light years and 840 loose strings off base.

      Homestuck is such a major influence on me as a writer and was a huge creative inspiration for me. I was fine with how the comic ended but felt like there could've been more to it...

      @Shinobi_Fox Před rokem +1

      @@voidnoidoid Yeah I'm not a fan of HS^2 because it regresses a lot of the personal challenges that some of the characters from Homestuck overcame during their arc (lookin pretty hard at Jane and Dirk there).
      Also homestucks ending was ok but Hussie really left a lot of loose ends that the viewers wanted to see tied up which I think is what really made the ending fall short (the epilogue stuff felt kind of trash honestly, both in the weird and unsatisfying outcomes in the candy vs meat timelines and in the fact is was just dumped out like some hastily written uni essay). Personally, I really liked the Act 8 Team for making a continuation to resolve some of that stuff and their flash here czcams.com/video/qS9p2gD_Ou4/video.html really did a really solid job on that. Also honourable mention to Homestuck Act Omega team because that was an cool unofficial continuation of the story too.

      There was never any other way that it could've ended. The man interior to the story hated the comic from like 2016, maybe 2015, and nothing was ever planned out at all. It was all live improv, live, uhh, puppet theatre. The price of that, the price.of these specific writing decisions what constitute the comic, you see it paid in its ending.

    this makes me imagine an au where the original 12 trolls try to safe psiionic in some kind of mission. they enter the ship, with those pink tendrils going throughout the ship and periodically pulsing with blue and red energy. throughout the journey to the heart of the ship they get glimpses of psiionics life through the energy in the tendrils, seeing how much he struggled and was tortured, all for a chance for him and all his fellow lowbloods to live a life worth living. at the end of the song they just see psiionic in a near catatonic state, the once great hero they had been seeing throughout the flashbacks now just a husk silently begging to be let free. he doesn't even notice as his descendant removes the tendrils, the only thing forcing psiionic to stay alive and suffer. finally, psiionic is allowed to rest, and he dies very quickly after he was removed and fell to the ground. sollux just watches as his ancestor dies with a slight look of relief on his face, and just takes off all the pink things on his, then just closes his eyes and the other 11 watch

    idk why, but im feeling something weird, i was just seeing some of the more emotional flashes in Karkat Goes To A Convention (no spoilers here tho), checking if Cole had updated it, and i remembered a song from Homestuck, and i wanted to find it.
    and ended up seeing Gold Pilot again, its been a long while since i listened to it
    i read homestuck in 2020, (srry new reader stuff lolol.) and sure sometimes i felt the retroactive FOMO of not having been there when it was being written, but i overcame that.
    Homestuck's cool, i like it, thats kinda most of what i have to say rn, this isnt that much about homestuck. as after after 10 seconds into Gold Pilot, staring at the coloUrs and mayhem Universe A cover, i started feeling this weird feeling, its not catharsis, similar but not quite it; its not really sad, its not happy either; the best way i can describe is that its a very "human" feeling.
    having trouble identifying it.
    i guess just, the relationship between humans and art and fiction is just really strange

      Maybe it's a sense of longing for being a part of the fandom back when it was popular. People making HS content in droves, fans anticipating the next update and being optimistic, theories being made on characters and symbolism, etc. Without a doubt, HS is much quieter and less widespread now than it was during its peak, so seeing all of the videos and comments left here years ago feels like you're stumbling upon relics of an older time.
      You're a fan of HS, but you don't have much of a emotional connection to these videos and comments because you weren't there when HS was big. If I were to use a metaphor, it's like when you come across an abandoned park in a town you've just moved into. Without a doubt, that park holds good memories from a long time ago, but since you never went there before, your brain is imagining nostalgia without you actually having nostalgia. Hope this helped, I kinda went through the same stuff you're going through.

      still; something about it is just, cosmical, maybe to do with hs's vast plot and space-time shenanigans in the size of multiverses. like i said, its human, i think i feel something empathetic, im not thinking of just the tragedy of the Psyoniic, its about more than that, like... a bigger picture kinda thing?
