Zutaten posted:I don't know if anyone mentioned it yet, I don't think anyone did, but if you mouse over and click the little coloured "act dots" on the Play button screen of [S] Cascade, you can jump to the different parts of the animation. Kind of handy if you just wanted to rewatch a specific segment. The thing I like about the scene selection is that I'm pretty sure they indicate what universe the scenes take place in. The red dots correspond to scenes in the kid's session, the blue to the troll's session, the green to the felt, and the white to Doc Scratch/Jade breaking everything.

Not only is the snippet very quiet it is also backwards and pretty rockin'! The burnt curtains were closing over the fourth wall, and the non-burnt curtains were closing over the fifth wall? Or an additional fourth wall. There's a lot of walls, is what I'm saying.

I also really liked it cause they actually looked like kids in the shot. That was probably my favorite shot of the whole flash, even though it was a fairly undramatic one.

It's really hard for me to think of just one thing that is memorable about Homestuck, because there's a lot of little things that I love. The moment that really stands out for me from the earlier acts, that cemented my love for Homestuck, is the whole section with WV (  ) starting with WV: Consume Several Cans quote:Enough of this nonsense. You are an important mayor and this absurd contraption has wasted enough of your time. You've got a city to govern with a carapaced fist! My favorite pesterlogs are probably all the ridiculous Dave and Terezi conversations, though my heart belongs to this one in particular. quote:TG: ok so whats the plan But in the end: probably Karkat. Karkat is simply the best character ever, he is Troll Jegus, he hates himself so much, he has lovely taste in movies, and he cares so much about everyone, but he's repressed that under layers of sarcasm and insults. It's hard to be Karkat. It's hard, and no one understands. In particular: quote:
Also how he has irredeemably corrupted Jade: quote:GG: I SAID PASSWORD FUCKASS!!!!!

Kit Walker posted:And Jaspers and Grandpa Harley Do you mean the continuous and extremely pressing mystery of how exactly Jaspers died? I feel like there are more mysteries right now, or at least, questions to be answered (what went down during the Ancestor's session? Is there an eight session game out there? What about the satellite around the pink moon? etc etc) though I'll concede that there's not many I can think of off the top of my head that are extremely plot important, except - 1. Is Gamzee still evil/crazy? Because he was looking kind of whacked out in [S] Cascade. 2. Lil' Cal and, most importantly, 3. the continuing saga of fedorafreak.

I'm really glad that we're getting the reveal on Lord English now, instead of right before the actual climactic battle (though that's me assuming some things about what Act 6 is going to be like.) I like how this works. I was afraid that Lord English would be A. someone we'd never seen before and B. completely nonthreatening. Of course, he's not as scary as we'd imagine, because there's been nearly a year of buildup for the reveal, and nothing's as scary as what your brain fills in by itself. But I found Lord English legitimately unsettling, I may or may not have jumped a little when there was the bit with the skull.

Supercar Gautier posted:I'm getting the vibe that these four might all be groomed by villainous characters. Jane by the Empress, Jake by LE, and Bro by Cal (if you count Cal as sentient and villainous). Wouldn't be surprised if Mom is a Doc Scratch prisoner. I really want this to be the case. That would honestly be a lot more interesting than them just proceeding through the game as normal. Instead of our kids going immediately to a big boss battle with Lord English, first they have to fight their alternate universe guardians, who've been raised by batterwitches/evil empresses/deranged puppets/universe consumers/possibly also horrorterrors? (because that would be sort of cool). Nothing like having to kill your alternate universe parents! KIDS AND FUN!

I'm thinking it's the latter. quote:The other one used to belong to your friend's MOM, and she dressed it as a wizard, which was also unapologetically more representative of her interests than yours. But yeah, it's unclear whether it got dressed up by RoseMom or scratchMom (oh man we really need a new name for her), but probably the latter. Which is weird, because I thought she was into science?

I don't know why you guys are worried, everything's going to be OBEY just fine. It's not like The Condesce's ship was in one of the ads or anything! Or like one of the new characters has a helmet that's the shape of the skull of the main villain! Everything is just hunky-dory in post scratch land.

Dolash posted:There are some good points in the above posts about changing focus, though. During Hivebent, people did get frustrated that the focus had shifted on to the trolls and the act seemed to drag on a little. There was talk about how the kids were being forgotten and how even when we got back to the kids that they'd be sharing a lot of the stage with the trolls now. I honestly feel like Hussie's invested too much time and effort into the trolls to just push them off to the side to the point where they have the same amount of screentime as the exiles do. The exiles, while wonderful and interesting, aren't nearly as fleshed out, as complex of characters, as the remaining trolls are. If anything, the fact that Hussie culled over half the trolls makes me think they'll have some sort of parity with the kids as Act 6 continues, since now there can be a tighter focus on a small group of trolls, instead of trying to juggle twelve. Seriously, trimming down the cast leads me to the exact opposite conclusion. Man, this must be exactly what it felt like to go through Hivebent.

Starmaker posted:I'm really glad I got into MSPA back when PS was still going. I remember waiting a month or whatever for Homestuck to come out and being mildly perplexed by the rather substantial shift in setting. I also remember the MSPA forums filled with complaints about how Homestuck was slow and people responding that it couldn't possibly become as epic as PS (heh) without a slow build-up first, and to just be patient. I hope in however many years everyone looks back at the beginning of whatever Hussie's starting next in the same way.

So maybe this says more about me than it does about the pesterlog, but that whole conversation seemed a little more sinister and untruthful than anyone else seems to think. I don't know why, it's just all together too cheery, like everything has been post!scratch so far. I'm just not ready to label UU as a positive trustworthy source of information quite yet.

Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff is a multiversal constant.

Ominous Jazz posted:Guys why does Mom have Dave's abbreviation? [TG] as opposed to [TT]? I mean, Dave and Rose are brother and sister right? Could that mean that they got genetically swapped guardians? Like mom ia actually bro and bro is mom? It's because Mom is Dave in spirit. Well, Dave if he was wasted. Which I hope means that Bro is going to be Rose-esque, because I just have no idea what that would look like. But Bro and Mom were, in the Sburb universe, Rose and Dave's mother and father, so there's no real reason why post scratch Mom couldn't have Dave's abbreviation.

I don't think I can take another death so soon. Jake, you best not hurt Crabdad. Although, this crabdad is way, way bigger than Karkat's - if you look at when Karkat and his lusus are about to strife, and now, Crabdad is only maybe twice or three times as big as Karkat, and this guy is towering over Jake.

Hahaha okay what the gently caress. The Fucky posted:That sure was a short act. I was wondering if that meant that the alpha game would have the same sort of act progression as the beta? Since this ends around the same time beta act one ended? But that would be a lot more homestuck. That would be a long act six.
