I love homestuck, on my first read I didn't like the epilogues but with time I have come to like them a lot, and I think the revival of Homestuck^2 aka HS:BC is pretty good and it's doing cool things. But I hate HS^2 before beyond canon... Does anybody else feel like this?


My main problem is that in the epilogues, even if I don't like certain little choices at least shit happens and we see more of the characters, it's interesting and fun, the same happens with HS:BC, even if sometimes i don't personally like the writing it's entertaining, BUT let me tell you, HS^2 is boring and in 400 pages there's only like two things that happen, the rest are pages and pages of the characters giving context to the readers that didn't read the epilogues and standing around talking about what they could do in the blandest way possible, it feels like a chore to read trought it.


When beyond canon was made I didn't understand the decision of not redoing it from the beginning! This writing team could have done the 400 pages of pure nothing in like 200 interesting pages, i don't know... What are yall thoughts?
