My Lovely Horse posted:Seems like the other gods are keeping her down the same way they do Redcloak. Speaking of him, doesn't look like he will show up, but boy if he ever finds out he could have, and by rights should have, been the tiebreaker and wouldn't have needed to bother with Xykon, he will be so angry. I'm pretty sure the Dark One isn't allowed to vote seeing as he was never allowed in the gods' secret club.

Maybe the turned priests are strategically killing demigod priests or something to make sure Hel wins the vote.

Speaking of the ol' IFCC, what do you think are the chances that this whole scheme playing out is the reason they wanted Girard's gate destroyed?

I still don;t get why the gods would need to let The Dark One do anything. This is their meeting to come to a decision on what to do, they can exclude anyone they want, and absolutely none of the gods want The Dark One to have any input in these decisions. It's not like someone is forcing them to give him a vote, they're the gods, they make the rules.

Xykon also did kill Roy by outsmarting him, even if it was just because Roy was being stupid.

Assuming they don't have any sort of attachment to the world as it is, they just effectively traded a few soul splices for millions of souls. More if they brokered a deal with Hel beforehand. Seems like a pretty okay deal to me.

CapnAndy posted:Never done worse than in Bioshock, for the record. This is mainly balanced by the player not really being given any solid indication that there's going to be a reward for being good. And isn't it kind of fitting that doing something that would appear to be outside of your own rational interest is rewarded considering the game?

'healthy' and 'okay' are pretty more or less synonymous imo. Dropping the 私は when it's unnecessary is also more or less standard practice.

ikanreed posted:Why is everyone talking about there being a loophole? If anything, a loophole would make the situation even more dire. Roy very clearly wants to stop the world from being destroyed regardless of Hel's plans. If Hel's plans are invalidated, the dwarves may actually agree that the world should be destroyed to stop the imminent threat, making Roy's job that much harder.

jng2058 posted:Above and beyond all that, it's that it's probable that Eugene has switched to the "Destroy the World" team and will finally become a full fledged antagonist now that Tarquin's out of the picture. That Roy has enough lingering feelings for his rear end in a top hat Dad such that he may not yet realize that Eugene is GOING to sell him out (probably to Hela who, one must imagine, can very well see a wandering ghost) will provide the drama and the Big Revealtm in a few dozen strips or so. Interestingly enough, he probably also wouldn't mind being thrown into, say, the lawful neutral afterlife compared to his current situation of 'slowly going insane by himself for all eternity.'

Poison Mushroom posted:Homestuck was good when it was Andrew "Humanimals" Hussie writing it. At some point, things changed, and it started being written by Andrew "crushed under the weight of ten million unpleasable teenagers" Hussie. I personally thought it was pretty good all the way through Act 5, but I've heard people say it lost its spark as early as the end of act 2. I'm pretty sure general consensus is that it started getting worse when the trolls showed up and continued getting worse at an exponential rate. Where it got to the point of being unreadable is up to you. I think I ended up sticking around until the beginning of Act 7 due to inertia, at which point I thought to myself "This hasn't been any good in a while now, why the hell am I still reading it?" It was, however, excellent when it was still made with sprites, so I guess it falls into the category of "Good Sprite Comics."

I'd say at its core, it's because the airship crew area boring and kind of generic, while the new Team Evil NPCs are genuinely interesting as characters. There's other reasons that make it worse, but at the end of the day, if the crew were actually likable, there wouldn't be nearly as much complaining.
