*facepalm*

The fact that it's a remix doesn't mean it can't have its own name, holy crap Kanzaris you are dense. Homestuck music is 90% remixes with new names anyway.

Edit: Nice find that it's called Penumbral Phantasm though.

@Nogoodnamesnow

No, I wasn't saying that. It's obviously a remix, but it's the exact same melody. Just saying that wanting a "full version" of it is the same as wanting a "full version" of any of the other songs that are remixed in Descend.

(From what I can tell, they include Upward Movement, Beatdown, Sburban Jungle, Explore, Liquid Negrocity, Octoroon Rangoon, Pumpkin Cravings, Doctor, Endless Climb and Atomyk Ebonpyre)

Lol people being unable to read entire posts and keepin on discussing the "jingle" in Descend even though I've explained what it is twice.

Ok, some of the last songs are pretty awesome(Noirscape, full version of Taste for Adventure), so I think I'll bump this up to high tier personally.

Saying anything here can match up to songs like Cascade, Descend, or Rex Duodecim Angelus though? Nah.

@Nogoodnamesnow

Like I said, that melody is just Doctor, and Umbral Ultimatum is mainly a remix of Courser.

That's what people say about every album when they come out. Some people get way too giddy and -EXCIT-ED and momentarily forget their critical judgement.

You'll come around.

Oh, album. Yeah.

Not bad, not bad, but I'm 3/4 through it now and so far nothing's blown me away. Mid tier album then.

Some neat references here and there though. Like how "Expedition" is a remix of "English" in disguise.

You know I just realized that one song that Radiation teased at the very end of Descend and quoted heavily in Umbral Ultimatum STILL doesn't exist.


...he's never going to release that track, is he?

A little secret for you: He already did. Several versions of it, in fact.

It's just Doctor played really fast.

.......or the full version of Spider's Claw?

Vriska's Theme? Killed by BR8K Spider? MeGaLoVaNiA? Spider8reath?

Both are good but flawed games.

-Both games have awesome gameplay
-XIII-2 has horrible writing but more varied gameplay
-RoF has amazing writing but can get monotonous
-XIII-2 has better music
-RoF has better, but minimalistic, story
-XIII-2 has lots of DLC, your call whether it's a good or bad thing

Both are worth playing though

Holy crap all those Youtube videos are horrible and unfunny

Why is the Homestuck fandom so bad? Why am I in it? What kind of startling realization could arise from these facts?


I don't know what made Takfloyd so insecure

I warned you about stock insults bro. I told you dog.

IT KEEPS HAPPENING

Stop wasting time on the internet and do something constructive.

Things I did with my spare time today:

-Worked on a hobby game project
-Spent a few hours drawing with my tablet
-Practiced moonrunes for an hour or so

It's all just about doing something that is fulfilling and doesn't make you feel like a lazy slob.

Uhhh

Everyone knew about that correlation.

Everyone except you.

The GCat was named specifically for that pun. Also, the letters used for its genetic code are BARK, to complete the circle. I assume you didn't know that.

Also, you're mistaking me for someone else if you think I'd forget anything about the Green Sun.

Now I'm tired of dumb arguments so let's just wait until the comic confirms the Red Miles thing so we can all laugh and point at you and the others who think it's DD's attack.

That's because DNA consists of molecules starting with those 4 letters, and Rose wrote Becquerel's DNA code in her journal using the letters M E O W as substitutes for G C A T, which is what Jack: Ascend shows. In case you hadn't noticed, all the kids and trolls also have chat handles composed of the combinations of those letters.

See, this is why you shouldn't get into arguments. You don't know anything.

Because I legitimately feel kind of bad for you if you're serious.

No you don't. That's just a stock response worn as a mask to cover up your delicious tears :D

I always admit my mistakes. It's just that I rarely make them.

Besides, I have never said that it's impossible for it to be DD's attack. But it's about as likely as Lord English actually being Nepeta by now.

But it's not DD's attack

Yes, it seems so likely that the Red Miles would sneak through one of the 9 portals that will eventually appear but most definitely haven't yet because the White Queen has the scepter.

No it doesn't.

But those arguments are irrelevant because the fact remains that there is no reckoning, and no defense portals!

^There are no defense portals. Also, Derse is ridiculously far away from Skaia in case you didn't know. Again, if the Red Miles could normally go that far Jack wouldn't even have had to leave Derse to blow up Prospit, and he could have wiped out everything in the trolls' session from where he first appeared.

The difference that it makes is whether or not the universe will be destroyed.

And this update is just one more confirmation. The "secret" way to get to Derse from Earth is in the Frog Temple, and the Red Miles came from space, so they didn't get to Earth that way.

Those transportalizers were a bit of an asspull as expected, by the way. Entering the game is not supposed to be that easy. It suddenly opens up a lot of insane possibilities, like Derse invading Earth with an army or vice versa.

I hope the transportalizer explodes after one use or something.

So Hiimdaisy ripoff comics are the new thing now eh?

On the internet, there is no one thing too silly for an in-depth discussion, and every discussion can rightfully be treated as a life or death matter.

@Pirateking

We don't know. Could be that, could be Kanaya tasting the blood of the Mother Grub, could be a property all jade blood trolls share. Or just for no reason at all except to be awesome.

Go read up on Quantum mechanics and come back to me.

Hahahaha, are you f***ing kidding me

Quantum mechanics deal with spatial inaccuracy of subatomic particles, and can ONLY be applied to objects on that scale.

The object we're talking about is, oh, only the ENTIRE FREAKING UNIVERSE!

Seriously dude, you have no idea what you're talking about here. Go read my earlier post again where I explained this stuff to you.

Pretty sure you must realize how that makes no sense.

Gonna have to call old on this one.

But it's still very cool. There are lots of videos like this though.

Oh, I obviously know of all the songs on the previous albums. Stupid wording.

We have a couple of Condesce themes already though.

I take it you are following the individual musicians since you have this mysterious insider info? I only know of the stuff that's been in the comic.

Just as people predicted. I wonder what kind of mad sounds will be on it, aside from the few tracks we've already heard.

The logical thing would be to have themes for the various new characters... but most of them were covered by the fan albums. I guess we could get some uu/UU themed ones, and maybe some A1 stuff?

Sigh... I hope it won't be too long until Hussie makes it official that Noir's Red Miles are assaulting Earth so all the incredibly dense naysayers can stop starting stupid debates.

I mean really, it's confirmed already and most of us have been waiting for it since way before DD got the ring as a red... herring... but human stupidity is limitless.

People are assuming that the universe is the same frog for some reason. It's not, and it's really dumb to assume otherwise.

Please just... know what you're talking about before posting and making a fool out of yourself.

Let me ask you this. When John got Typheus'd and a doomed timeline was created, did that suddenly become a different frog? Because the B2 universe is nothing more than an alternate timeline, as should be glaringly obvious to anyone who pays attention. The only thing the scratch changes is the points in time at which the players and guardians arrive at Earth! Now how the heck would this affect what Jack Noir does to the universe from the outside?

I'm not saying you're wrong but how is this confirmed? That is wildly presumptuous.

Because they're seen above Roxy's house. DD was targeting Dirk you know.

If Red Miles could attack anywhere on Earth from inside the session this easily, wouldn't Jack have gone about doing things differently? It would feel a lot like an ass pull to suddenly have the attack be this powerful.

Dammit, I thought "select character" meant that we were finally getting the scoop on UU and uu.

At least this confirms it's Jack's Red Miles, as if there was any doubt.

Also... when did Jane get told about the future thing again? Looks like I have to backtrack a bit here...

Ok, so uu is definitely sharing a body with UU somehow. In addition to the fact that he pretty much spells it out for us, notice that the hands removing the caps on the royal pieces match the hand smashing the board.

There's obviosuly more to it than that, though, since uu plans to kill UU's waking body, which would kill him too if it was that simple.

Those who think this could run on any currently existing consumer PC have no idea how computer graphics work.

This demo is so far beyond today's graphics it's ridiculous. Crysis 2 and Unreal Engine 4 can go to bed.

Too bad the next console generation won't actually have graphics like this though! Not only because the consoles won't be powerful enough, but because this stuff costs a fortune in time and money to make and gaming is struggling economically as it is.

But it sure was nice to look at!

And yeah that's true except one is technically never supposed to have existed. Which is weird to me even by Homestuck standards.

Alternate timelines always continue to exist in Homestuck according to Hussie. We've met John and Dave from alternate timelines in dreambubbles remember.

Bascially, the B1 universe was destroyed by the scratch and doesn't exist after that, but it still exists before the scratch, so as long as you can access it at an earlier point in time there's no problem.

^He didn't read the letter until after Hivebent though.

Personally I'm wondering if we'll ever get any explanation to how things can get transported between those two iterations of the same universe besides "magic teleporter."

The two universes are basically just standard parallel timelines. Characters have been jumping between timelines since the first intermission, so it's no biggie really.

We still don't know how the Condesce got to Earth, do we? Is it possible she (somehow) got to Derse first and then used the capsule to appear on Earth?

She's already on Earth. And has been for 100 years. Did you somehow forget she's Betty Crocker? And that the Battleship Condescension appeared in Jane: Enter?

Anyway I'm a bit surprised the giant object wasn't the fourth wall, but I guess chances are it's inside the globe.

Hey guys... I just had a crazy thought... what if Dirk is still there because of Page powers?

the red miles thing doesn't really make a huge difference no matter who it is though

DD: Dirk is in trouble
Noir: The universe explodes

I'd say it makes somewhat of a difference

Many of the good theories have recently been confirmed/debunked.

Dirk and Roxy living in the future was called early and oft discussed. Another big one was uu and UU being two halves of pre-scratch Sufferer, and also that the pre-scratch troll universe would be created by the B2 kids as part of a very malicious time loop. But recent events show that uu and UU really do have their own session.

We still guess that UU and uu live in the universe the kids will create though.

Oh, a big one currently being discussed: The Red Miles approaching Dirk on Earth are Jack Noir's universe-destroying attack. It's more of an assumption than a theory though, but some people believe it's just DD's attack, sent through a portal.

But... we just had a character ranking contest! And it was terrible, like all the stupid contests this board likes to put up all the time. It's almost as if this board was MADE for these dumb things.

no, we just live in a progressive society that understands justice is more than just crime prevention

I don't think you understand what progressive means

What you're describing is not being progressive, it's the opposite of being progressive

What you're describing is is a medieval mindset where justice=revenge.

Killing him would probably put some of the families at ease.

I think you misunderstand how people think around here. None of the families want him to get executed. The mentality most people have in Norway is that execution is the "easy way out" for a murderer, and a very empty revenge for the offended parties which only serves to create more murderers.

SephirothG lives up to his username

LET'S KILL ALL THE BAD PEOPLE MOMMY

Nobody denied that Europe is in big trouble Ulti.

But what some of you don't understand is that Norway isn't on that sinking ship. We have our own ship over here, and it's stuffed to the brim with oil. Norway isn't in the EU, we have nothing to do with all the trainwreck economies around us.

Which makes the topic kind of dumb.

Yeah I'm thinking there are people with horribly calibrated TVs here if they think the graphics look bad.

Wii game 101: Component cables, high color contrast, turn screen softening way up. Voila, no big aliasing issues.

Xenoblade is a game that would benefit from HD, but it looks excellent as it is. It looks a lot better than anything from last generation.

The graphics are pretty great as long as you have component cables.

Critical stupidity threshold achieved! UltimaterializerX was summoned!

Seriously though if someone pulls a gun on you you aren't going to be able to grab your own gun without getting shot.

Because that's all that matters to quality of life, right?

No, I'd say education, health, food, money and human rights are pretty important too. Oh and guess what! Norway is on the very top of all those categories too! Totally horrible country, I know.

too good for him, but still much better than norway's "justice" system.

Enjoy being robbed at gunpoint in the street while we have the lowest crime rate in the world and also the lowest percentage of crime reocurrence by released prisoners

Man topics like this always attract the dumbest arguments

Hahahaha

This is the video that Fox News went out and apologized for and removed from their site because it was a load of fabricated, ridiculous bullcrap right?

Literally making a topic using it as a straight argument.

You really do consistently make the worst topics on this entire board, TC, and that's quite the achievement.

Xenoblade is THE best game this generation IMO. And it's not even close.

Frankly, anyone who considers Xenoblade to be less than a 9/10 game loses all gaming credibility.

Norway calling

This is BS

I suggest not trusting outlets that employ google translate for their news research.

EDIT: That said it's true that Breivik is being treated bafflingly well by other countries' standards, but Norway's justice system is based on rehabilitation and respect, and it works like hell and ensures almost all criminals return successfully to the society.
