I like the trickster part since it's so intentionally unsettling which is extremely my poo poo. It's also rather short if you're reading it in one go.

I liked when Trickster mode was just pressing ctrl+T in a flash game to make John look and walk funny :c But making one-time-easter-eggs into full on plot distractions is a long-standing Hussie tradition so it's easily forgivable.

Bobulus posted:John was an idiot and put the ring in his hoodie pocket, where it will get easily lost, rather than in his sylladex, where, presumably, no one could take it without his permission. Are sylladexes even a thing anymore, it's more like people just sort of...pick things up, with their hands now. It's weird.

Honestly I think characters ignoring the sylladexes to just-like-pick-things-up is the best joke payoff of the whole mechanic.

H.P. Shivcraft posted:I know just about everyone hates the Trickster segment but I really, really loving love it, almost entirely based on two things. The first is, the vaguely horrified, mechanical way it uses phrases like "OH BOY" and "WHEEEEEEE" and so on. The second is, how this whole Gristmas bit was posted a full month after Christmas and it wasn't at all clear if that was because Hussie was behind schedule or if it was always meant to be. I kind of like trickster mode too. Mostly because of chronically depressed trickster Dirk. Dirk being unable to have happy thoughts is both hilarious and tragic.

There's actually a badge on their sash thing that lets them pick things up with their hands. Just like there's one for talking to people Trickster mode is pretty fun when you're not waiting for updates. It doesn't last too long, though the ensuing teen drama lasts forever

I am okay with Vriska's new hair. I cannot wait for her to permanently die in the next update.

Vriska should stop projecting on the evil skull-man. He is probably genuinely having the time of his life, blowing stuff up, murdering guys, and making progress in a repetitive monotonous task that should by all means be impossible to accomplish.

Not so sure she's gonna die, despite how the setup is making it look as such. Notice Hussie brought the juju box that contained the pointer that gave John his canon breaking powers.

I wonder if the next update is going to be about Vriska as well. It might be fitting, because the next update takes place on the 8th day of Hanukkah, the festival of lights.

Hasn't that been the pattern. I am looking forward to when Terezi's list requires John to feed a cat into an ATM.

I used to love Vriskatime, but now that she's not doing poo poo I'd rather she just get vaporized and let the still-cool characters get more screentime.

The more she talks, the more Meenah's losing some of her fish puns and sounding like someone out of Achewood. Although she died young while Condy's still, around, I wonder if Fish Hitler has a similar attitude regardless and that's why she set Jane up as heiress. (missed Aradia the first time too)

Wait, what the gently caress? That explosion looked weird (BKEW is already spewing some bullshit about it being the triforce?) but... if you look at it when it's yellow... ...that is clearly a Vriska eye. Seven pupils, six small ones orbiting a big one. I don't, uh, know what to make of that. ...I guess it could just be a metaphor for how Vriska is seeing her past actions in Lord English's rampage?

You either need to double-check your counting or label what you're referring to, because that's seven (six orbiting one), not eight (seven orbiting one).

I wonder if this is another troll. In both senses of the phrase. We got Jade-juked before, after all. I mean, don't get me wrong, it is nice to see Vriska give up the giant smoldering hate-volcano that was her heart, but there was also that ridiculous speech she made about saving people. And... she's still got the cursor, unless its juju went to live in John. Glazius fucked around with this message at 07:49 on Dec 22, 2014 |
