I gotta say, I only looked at this comic because I expected it to be amusingly terrible (catgirl + Oblivion fanfiction + MSPA forums almost drove me away), but its actually pretty charming and enjoyable. I'd encourage anyone else who might be on the fence about reading it to at least give it a glance.

Yeah, I personally can't stand Homestuck anymore and I still enjoy this comic. All the Homestuck-inspired stuff kind of bugs me though. I skipped all the big walk-around flashes in Homestuck, so it's a bit offputting to see the exact same thing in another comic. I hope Prequel develops more into its own thing instead of being tied to the Homestuck fandom forever.

Basically, the bethesda writer that wrote Vivec's 36 sermons for morrowind put in a bunch of new-agey metaphysical stuff and broke/referenced the 4th wall pretty frequently, by explaining mechanics like pausing the game to drink potions or restructuring the world with the construction set as powers granted by Vivec's version of enlightenment, which is called CHIM for some reason. I'd call CHIM an easter-egg or sly reference at most since Vivec doesn't really act like he's videogame omnipotent, and actually obtained his divine powers alongside two other unenlightened dickheads by loving around with a dead god's heart. All of the 4th wall breaking stuff is hidden in row after row of crazy nonsense Vivec poetry about things like marrying the King of Rape, so I don't think you're really supposed to take it as the driving canon behind the Elder Scrolls franchise.
