some dude decided to make community interactive ms paint cyoa webcomic

it did pretty well that he did it a few times, and it eventually resulted in problem sleuth, where he kept the milieu of a cyoa, but dropped the community suggestions

problem sleuth is kinda dense and long but is p good


then he made homestuck which was in the same vein except its impenetrably dense

do you think microwave killed himself when he found out how rich and successful hussie got off of his idea

it's because bomestuck was when he finally made characters that his community could imagine loving, and then leaned into that concept himself, even though the characters are supposed to be children

Keep in mind that "spitting in a communal bucket" is part of this romance or impregnation or whatever. Homestuck cosplayers decided that they would SPIT INTO A COMMUNAL BUCKET IN REAL LIFE to show how "dedicated" they were to the fanon and impress Hussie.

how did you get "not liking it because it's popular" out of what I posted? I'm saying you're an idiot nerd on a comedy computermans forum full of idiot nerds and pretending you have never heard of a homestuck makes you sound dumb as gently caress. especially when you go on to talk about all the bits and pieces of it you've seen and can make quality judgements about. for the third time I am not defending homestuck I'm saying I don't believe there's any way in the past 10 years homestuck has been running you've never googled it and saw it was a webcomic and if you truly haven't maybe it says more about you than about me
