I'm thinking of Vriska's theme, like the one that plays in the walkaround. Those are the only "themes" I'm familiar with, I don't know of any others.

The walkaround themes are all just remixes of their original themes, which also have other, better remixes in most cases.

Here are some incentives for you to stop disliking Vriska's theme:

Why? It's a brilliantly unique tune. Or do you just mean the version actually named "Vriska's Theme"?

Speaking of which, does anybody else think of Advance Wars when they hear that version?

The best parts of those songs aren't actually based on Terezi's theme though! Terezi Owns is great because of Upward Movement and even the one called Terezi's Theme takes its best part from Alternia. BL1ND JUST1CE is an excellent homage to Phoenix Wright, of course.

Eridan's theme is pretty catchy, but Equius' is easily my favourite. It fits him perfectly even discounting the horse noises and contains the perfect mix of epic and tragic. Those string arpeggios are the best.

Taking remixes into account Vriska wins though. MeGaLoVaNiA, Spider8reath and Killed By BR8K Spider are all really great.

Ookay. I have enough music to listen to when I get the chance; don't see why being a fan of the comic should necessitate an additional dedication of time to seeking out additional Homestuck-related music and listening to it.


Because it's better than most music out there, for one.

Lightning Strikes posted...
This isn't the entertainment industry. This is a fan project for a webcomic done for a laugh. There's a difference. In a professional production, yes you would have a point. In an amateur one? It's just elitist and pretty cruel.


People are putting some serious effort into this thing though, if you'd take a look at what they've got so far. Don't you realize that the people who do s***tty jobs are actively ruining it for the others? One ugly part can bring an entire animation down.

Also, I'm not glorifying myself. I set high standards for everything and expect the most out of everyone, including myself. I am a perfectionist and dedicated to my work, but you can be sure I slam myself as much as I do everyone else when I do a bad job at something. Setting unrealistically lofty expectations is something that's required in my line of work, where 16 hour work days are common.

It is my philosophy that nothing should be done half-assedly. You should commit fully to everything you do. Which brings us to the matter of Homestuck again.

Yes, if you are a fan of Homestuck you should do research and make sure you understand the plot completely! Yes, you should listen to all the music, because it gives lots of valuable insight! And to your information, most of the music doesn't appear in albums before long after it's used in the comic, so there's no need to fear spoilers.

EDIT: I should really start using quote boxes so my posts aren't so bothersome to read. Fix'd.

I don't know how many people listen to so much of the discography as often as I do.

I do. I listen to music 90% of my waking hours, so although I'm not at all Homestuck-exclusive, I've probably listened to every song a dozen times or more.

And a thousand shames on the people in this thread who don't even listen to the music that's not in the comic.

Most of the best songs are not, or are cut down to small segments when used in the comic.

The real tragic thing about this piece is that it missed its only chance to get used. It was probably going to be used for the unfinished Rose/Vriska vs. Jack flash, but that never happened. Sad now.

Nah, it wasn't. There is an unfinished piece floating around one of the musicians' blogs that was supposed to be used. It would follow At The Price of Oblivion which would be used for Rose's part obviously.

But the biggest offender for a song that lacks a flash is obviously RDA. The good news is that the fans are making it!

This isn't a mystery guys

This is the universe the kids and trolls will eventually create and enter, just like a lot of us have expected ever since UU was introduced and we learned that the current players were legendary heroes from her perspective.

The statues are there because Dave and Dirk went on an ironic JPEG rampage when they got to their new home.

That's the obvious theory anyway.

It's obvious that he was "voiding" out everything related to Lord English and himself in the book, using Equius' blood. Probably because Doc Scratch knew UU/uu would end up with the book.

Similarly, we can probably assume that the reason limebloods were hunted to extinction was because Scratch was overseeing Alternia, and UU has lime colored blood...

It's not "hardcoded into the game".

See: Emulators

Old games are set to their original resolution when played on new systems because - shocker! They look best in their original, intended resolution!

All you get from upping the resolution of old games is a lot more clarity on the horribly low-poly models and horribad textures which are normally covered up nicely by the low resolution.

Yeah the theory was that uu would transfer his soul to Cal, and thus in a way becoming a part of LE later, but the fact that uu and UU might not be trolls never crossed my mind.

It all makes a lot of sense though. uranianUmbra. Uranus. The planet Uranus spins on its side. A term for a side spin is "english". She speaks British. The Calmasis analogy. LE killing Hussie while he's dressed up as Calmasis. I mean we all made some of these connections, but we were probably all sidetracked by the obvious red herring that is Jake English.

If the "same body" theory is still true, this means that we know LE's weakness though. All you have to do is say "Calliope" to him and he'll suddenly assume the mind of a nice British girl. That would be hilarious.

Well, you could have just... listened to what people have been saying in these topics.

And yet it seems it still isn't clear to you. So I'll repeat myself. It DOES erase that timeline completely. Starting from the point of the scratch, the timeline no longer exists. But that doesn't mean you can't reach it before it got scratched! If the timeline suddenly never existed, the scratch wouldn't have been made in the first place.

From what information we have, the father is justified, not in intentionally killing the criminal, but in beating him up and killing him on accident which is probably what happened.

But people shouldn't be so quick to accept a story.

How do we know for sure he was a molester? Is it out of the question that the father could have come home drunk, misunderstood the situation and killed an innocent man? Just saying people shouldn't be so quick to turn this man into a hero.

Also, even if the story is legit, he killed a man with his bare hands in front of his daughter. I don't think that's very considerate.

So... uu is going to be born today? Hmm...

Hmmmmmmmmmmm

Ok, this idea is pretty stupid but...

What if uu is... Cal. The alive one. But not yet. He's a split personality of UU as we have all theorized, and his plan is to transfer his soul to Cal, thus being "born" today. That's why he needs Dirk to toast his own Cal, because uu needs to make sure that he possesses the true "Juju" whatever that implies.

I mean think about it. The Jigsaw schtick. The Calmasis symbolism. His obsession with Cal. His murderous behaviour. It could work.
