I have a kind of alacrity in sinking.

Individual pages within this comic are good. In fact, they're amazing.

Like, the latest page? It's one of the best he's produced. Easy top ten material.

Taken as a whole, in terms of the medium (webcomic), the pacing has been really dragging the whole thing down.*


* It's still one of my favourite webcomics, tho', if only on the strength of previous chapters. I critique because I love.

But remember, suggesting the pacing might be garbage is unreasonable/entitled/gee guys it's just been said SO MANY TIMES BEFORE!!! done to death so many times you'd think it was called Starscream.

this, too, is physics
at least the last scene actually ended instead of awkwardly switching over halfway through

i'm curious, when you post complaints about the pacing what are you hoping to accomplish

is there even anybody here who thinks the pacing is good who you might convince otherwise or something idk

It's just not very interesting to hear the same complaint stated over and over again. We get it, the pacing isn't great. It's absolutely a valid criticism but given how things have been going it's not likely the pacing is going to improve. So it comes to a point of whether or not that's a deal breaker for you but I'm not sure there's much value in just constantly beating a dead horse.

I mean obviously people can discuss what they like, but I think it's also reasonable to be tired of a point that gets brought up almost every single time the comic updates.

Honestly? It's just a comment, much like how "I love how Ed Burger has become King Bean of Fighting Legume Hill" is a comment. There's nothing wrong with posting about how much you enjoy a thing and there's also nothing wrong with posting a valid criticism.

The problem with starting there is that it doesn't include the previous two pages of this sub-plot which are infinitely better.

I like to complain about the people who are complaining about the complainers who complain about things they can't change, because complaining about complainers complaints is triggering to me.

And now the word 'complain' has lost all meaning to me. Think about it, it sounds weird. Complain. Com-plain. Cum-plain? Cum-plant? Com-plaint.

Allow me to blow your mind:

There are maybe ten posts in this entire thread that legitimately qualify as interesting or helpful. Most posts are exactly as white noise as the ones you decry the only difference is you agree with one and not the other.

Everyone's free to argue about their freedom to point out that this webcomic is paced worse than a show about nothing ad infinitum but no one's gonna give you a gold star for bringing this argument up again. You're here, it's Taco Bell, there's not going to be any silverware or cloth napkins, accept it already.

someone linked to something in this thread earlier that made me re-read most of the ghost train chapter, and my conclusions were twofold:

(a) drat good chapter, and spicy, too
(b) it's still really funny that the time from the start of the chapter to the introduction of the ghost train was as long as the entirety of any of the first three chapters
