It's hard to take a cop with a princess outfit seriously.

[Vucar Fikodastesh]

Argh! Another Jade message from the future! Or maybe it's from the past, or both.

This is starting to get as bad as the MC nonsense.

[Jackrabbit]

Finally reached the end again after setting it aside for a month. I forgot why I love this comic so much.

[Sensei]

Oh come on that's cheap.

All the epic weapons and they all just sort of get thrown away or outmoded immediately.

[Jackrabbit]

I may be forgetting some, but John had the Wrinklefucker (still in use), the pogohammer (still in use as a backup), the ghost arms, which wield the big... hammer (still in use) and that's about it. Since he's using the Wrinklefucker on the cat thing the size of an ogre, and considering how long it took to beat those guys (admittedly with a pogohammer, but this thing seems more dangerous) and that the big... hammer still hasn't hit its opponent, they don't seem especially outmoded to me.

[Neruz]

The SASSACRUSHER appears to be largely ineffective against the TAR BASILISK, taking off about 1/8th of it's health, and the Wrinklefucker is completely and totally ineffectual against the COPPER GICLOPS.

Bigger hammers are clearly required, the SASSACRUSHER and WRINKLEFUCKER are acceptable against SHALE IMPS and CRUDE OGRES, but something better is neccessary for TAR BASILISKS, and something really, really big is needed for COPPER GIPLOPES.

[Jackrabbit]

If he flails pretty hard, 1/8th'll do the job in no time. But yeah, it's annoying that he needs new weapons all of a sudden. Perhaps these enemies are scarce.

[Neruz]

He needs to make more Ghost Gauntlets and Sassacrushers, have the Ghost Gauntlets wear Ghost Gauntlets and arm them all with Sassacrushers. I reckon 10 Sassacrushers all going at once will tear those Basilisks a new one.

[Jackrabbit]

Gah, but he can't, I just remembered. Stupid gate.

[Neruz]

Yeah :C

Presumably he'll need to loot bodies or something.

[tehstefan]

He could probably use some cool stuff in any case. You didn't think Andrew would make this easy right?

[Kagus]

Yeah, I think I've lost interest.


I know that it's sort of his "style" to go into long, drawn-out periods of increasingly grating epicness, but the problem here is that the highlights aren't grabbing me anymore.  I don't find any of the jokes to be funny, I don't care about the host of extraneous characters that have suddenly been added in, and I've even stopped giving a damn about the main characters.

I liked Problem Sleuth because it parodied a lot of games that I've played and loved over the years.  Yes, it got a bit stretched towards the end, and it moved away from its simple beginnings (something I didn't particularly agree with), but it still treated it all like it was happening inside a game.

Homestuck started out like some sort of hybrid Sims - Adventure game parody, but that got dropped very early on.  Now it's "real", and it's trying to stand on its own two feet.  Frankly, I'm just not interested anymore.

Maybe the humor has just moved on to different tastes, or maybe I'm missing the underlying secret that makes this all hilarious, but the result is the same.


I'm out.  More bandwidth for the rest of y'all.

[ToonyMan]

MSPA is starting to go all shounen on us.

That could be very good or very bad.

[Dragooble]

Uhhh...
Grandpa Harley?

[ToonyMan]

Aww you ruined the mood for me.  Oh well.

Still.

Um.
Yeah.

The cyclops took his sassacrusher.
