A Wizard of Goatse posted:erfworld's low point is that it's a dramatic narrative built on monkey cheese epic meme references and the same 'haha what if games were real and their rules were physics, wouldn't that be wacky' premise that has already been flogged to death for literally every actual game that exists, and wasn't funny the first time It's really more like "wouldn't that be terrible?"

poo poo is about to get all too real in Dr. McNinja. Well, as real as things can get when you're dealing with ridiculous concepts like ghost wizards that look like party decorations.

Again it's one of the tons of bizzare ridiculous things that at some point I lost ability to keep track of but... What is with the beardo in the sunglasses and the stone spooky sheet ghost wizard?

Just going by memory here: beardo is Doc's grandfather, who sacrificed himself to cast a spell to petrify the ghost wizard. The spell also made everyone forget Doc's name, and will break if he ever tells it to anyone. Ghost wizard's been petrified a good two or three decades, he's gonna be hella pissed when he shows up.

Also, he was in the middle of casting a spell that would kill McNinja by turning probability against him. (I kind of assumed the deal was the doctor would automatically die if he told anyone his name, but I guess the wizard didn't get to finish his spell. Or maybe he just suffers a ridiculous run of bad luck from now until the end of the series.)

It seems like we're in an endgame that's just gonna bring back everyone, if you haven't been following along you're pretty hosed.

Blackfish posted:I like it a lot, there's been some great character development recently. Violet is a good character and I hope we see a lot more of her. I'm curious about what Enid is. Some commenters were saying that it is literally An Id which could be cool, or like a hybrid since it can talk. I'm wondering what the heck Enid is as well. I mean, aside from the Barenaked Ladies reference pointed out in the comments. I see what looks like a tail behind her, but it's bulbous or something.

Yeah i'm getting pretty tired of the whole Homestuck 1page 1 panel format- I know it's a lot easier to create content at a consistent pace, but it just comes off as lazy.

Are there at least Flash animations or games that happen every now and again that help break up the pattern? Never read Kos so honestly asking

There was some good material that was born out of the homestuck/forum-adventure trend, but that stuff was always the stuff that ripped off homestuck the least.

I can certainly agree with that- I mean look at KSBD, and Undertale- they both sprang from that and went off and became more. I forget, did Poppy start that way?

No, but at one point I had plans to do one about sky privateers. Skyvateers. It was called Seven Skies and it died before it even began and became one of those things that just rattles around in my head, occasionally getting mental updates. Poppy was born purely out of good ol' art school sleep deprivation.

That reminds me of a dream I had once about a band of professional diamond thieves. They called themselves The Diamondeers.

Brought To You By posted:It's not the fact that Rodney left and took the humor with him. It seems like this gets mentioned any time Megatokyo gets discussed, and it truly boggles me considering that Rodney left thirteen years ago. Although that said it also boggles me that Megatokyo is still going at all.

Farmer Crack-rear end posted:It seems like this gets mentioned any time Megatokyo gets discussed, and it truly boggles me considering that Rodney left thirteen years ago. It kind of depends on what you mean by "still going". I don't think there's been an actual new comic in nearly a year.

Megatokyo sucked even before Rodney left; like a lot of mediocre long-running comic strips, it just happened to show up at the right time (specifically when early-00's otaku culture was getting huge and there weren't that many webcomics targeting that audience) and still maintains popularity due to sheer inertia. The only thing I remember about Megatokyo is that they were really ahead of the curve when it came to having published editions in bookstores. I wonder how successful that comic would have been today if the author didn't have such a lovely work ethic.

I think that Megatokyo was the first webcomic I ever saw physical copies of in a Barnes and Noble.
