Their worst enemies at the beginning: Their own inventory systems Their worst enemies at the end: An evil space empress who could juggle planets with her mind, several versions of the same guy who all became ridiculously overpowered through various means, and a hulked-out space pimp who destroys entire timelines for fun

[@oliveoiI]

i will now refer to LE as a “hulked-out space pimp”, thanks

[@miguelbarrios6732]

the funny is that LE is above Andrew Hussie, who fiction HS(paradox space) which has a group o acausal beings(horroterrors) that controls an infinite nothingess(the furthest ring) that has the platonic concepts(the aspects) of reality, this nothingness contained an infinite hierarchy of creators, with each creator trascending the creator below, and then you have a genesis frog which contains infinite timelines, and there are infinite genesis frogs

[@finpamoon]

As a person who was fascinated with Homestuck for a time and a half, I never actually got to read the whole thing, but after hearing this song so many times and jamming out at the chanting parts, it makes me want to go back to reading it. One more thing I'll say for those who want to start reading Homestuck: Any part you skip in this whole story (no matter how big or small) is like going to the bathroom while forgetting to pause Regular Show.

[@KyrieFortune]

​@@wimberlen I disagree, Homestuck is when he could unleash his power: for UT/DR he had to compose everything, write most of the story and dialogues, code a lot, test everything was ok, while in Homestuck he only had to compose and wasn't even the only one. Making his own games means he physically doesn't have time to completely dedicate to music (and somehow he still makes only bangers), but in Homestuck he had everything at his disposal, in fact he had free time while composing that he used to... write Undertale.

I forgot how good this song was

[@neosniper8940]

1:08 Are those sound effects from the Earthbound eshop trailer? Toby Fox really is a big Mother fan isn’t he?

"so toby, which beats do you want to accent?" "yes"

[@excalibur493]

If you tap your finger (or foot or whatever), 1:22-1:28 has 16 taps. Knowing Toby, this could be a nod to Mother 3's musical combos where it maxes out at 16 pushes of the A button depending on the battle music.

[@ElFreakinCid]

That'd be very fitting, seeing as Homestuck was actually inspired by EarthBound to begin with.

[@dezember25th]

Fair, but it could just also be that the song follows a 4/4 rhythm, and so will always land on 16 as a new beat

It's super sad that HS has essentially completely died out. I feel like a lot of things could have been done differently to ensure it was a cult classic instead of having it die in a few months and have a shitty rep

[@honeycrisp808]

Partly hussie's fault for not properly taking care of the comic, dealing with making that HS game took such a toll on the comic and fucked up SO many things. His worst mistake was giving the series to the twitter fanbase, it's only gone downhill since.

Follow more artists / creators, folks like jasproses have been doin great thinkpieces / discussions on characters like the meta of Jake English!

[@MolassesLover]

It hasn’t died out, the fanbase just moved on to different things. I still see it everywhere, all the fans are extremely self-aware, and pretty critical of the comic- which thankfully has given it a better reputation. I’m sure Homestuck will see a resurgence, either from something official or something fan-made. Personally, I’m remaking Homestuck in a style reminiscent of Spider-Verse and the epilogue pages right after [S] Collide. It’s been in the works for a year and half now. I have high hopes for it, I’ve spoken with so many people who’s works I’ve admired for so long because of this project, and the feedback has been good. So who knows, maybe that will help boost Homestuck up a bit. Either way, a remake from me or someone else is inevitable

that leitmotif is from doctor, who’s prototype, patient, used the core motif. so yeah they’re connected
