You don't need to start with references, it's fine. The let's reads are fine, you can do those, or you can just read it yourself at homestuck.com, nothing wrong with either. At one point it was mspaintadventures.com, but now it just redirects to homestuck.com, since it moved. Same experience, though.
Thanks again! Im directly reading from Homestuck.com. Already got spoiled a bit from the NewPipe comments.
I had gotten here from the Pilot episode Viziepop made. Too much swearing, there's always too much swearing.
Toby Fox had cool voice acting, though I think TG should have been played by MoistCr1TiKaL.
For a true experience, pause a few days or weeks before every flash animation.
It really is such a huge body of work, I'm not sure how i would read it fresh.
I can recommend Problem Sleuth though -- i started reading it when it was almost done, and enjoyed it start to finish.
Problem Sleuth was so good
I can't access any flash animations since the site and my internet is not in good condition. It's just a dark blue screen with a yellow ribbony text font that says 'ruffle'.
I read them while Flash was still around and the comic was still updating, a special time indeed.
If you dig around, I hear there are Homestuck specific browsers and preservation projects if you search around. I can't attest yo how good they are but it's the internet, someone is trying to keep tge original experience alive.
There's https://mspa.chadthundercock.com/homestuck that I'm using.
I believe most of them are on YouTube if that helps.
Oof
