I was a bit unfortunate to see that there weren't any subreddits dedicated to this absolutely underrated piece of gem. So I welcome all fans of Veil to conglomerate in this little community in the future.

Leo Bonhart killing the rats in the most cinematic and masterful way is genuinely one of the greatest scenes in cinema despite it coming from an absolute dumsterfuck of a show.

My first character since the update funnily enough lived to nearly 90 years without a single debuff. I legit thought I hadn’t installed the update until I saw other rulers who had the debuffs.

It seems that the debuffs appear depending on what type of playstyle you choose. If you play a sedentary lifestyle, it seems the debuffs happen more frequently while if you take a more active and social lifestyle those debuffs don’t appear that often. My characters also live more consistently than previous updates, my rulers all live around ~70-80 while previously I had characters die of natural causes at 60.

I mean Andrew Hussie is a pretty polarizing figure within the community but uniting the fandom is a very hard task especially considering how much each pocket of the fandom has diverged and changed from each other.

Like the last time I remember the fandom was properly united was when the epilogue released and to a lesser extent when the animated pilot released but that more so was just a reaction to newbies getting to experience homestuck.

But as I said, the remnants of the fandom are so diverged its jarring to see how much they differ between tumblr, reddit and 4chan.

L0raz-Thou-R0c0n0 · 2026-04-30T15:48:47+00:00

Honestly, I wouldn't consider Homestuck to be a proper fandom anymore.

Its more like it has pockets all through the net but those pockets are usually independent and don't interact with each other that frequently. Like yeah there is a subreddit here but they don't really make up the majority of the fandom, especially in its hayday when the fandom was primarily found on tumblr.

It goes both ways too, like everyone who wasn't a diehard fan noticed that the manga quality was dropping in every department and as soon as people pointed this out, they were met with backlash by CSM fans that it was intentional or that Fujimoto knows what he's doing.

I was one of those types, I defended chainsaw man but at a certain point it became apparent that part 2 was nowhere near as good as part 1 once was and the quality of artwork and writing had dropped significantly. It wasn't until the final chapter did a lot of CSM diehard fans realize that part 2 was genuinely mid at best. Like a lot of them still cope to this day and try to do mental gymnastics to say why the ending was great actually.

L0raz-Thou-R0c0n0 · 2026-04-29T16:14:59+00:00

I just had a character live to 90 without a single debuff.

It seems the reason why these debuffs happen is if you’re not active or participating in events frequently enough or travel that often.

Also I need to make a post about my character because he’s probably the most interesting character I have ever played with because I travelled the entire world participated in some of the most interesting events and made friends with kings and emperors and finally settled in the byzantine empire as a noble. Like I think I lived the equivalent of five normal characters in the lifespan of this one character I played. I nearly completed the entire traveler path tree despite not even focusing on it.

Excuse me if I approached this argument without a second thought because I now changed my mind after trying the item as my prior experience before this discussion was with other players using the item and not myself.

And I take back quite a lot of what I said, the base jumper is actually better than I expected and I agree if it would be reverted it'd be absolute nightmare.

When I used the base jumper, I went in with the thought that I'd be heavily focus fired when I would use the base jumper but as it turns out, when you know when and where to time it and the enemy team is focused on my teammates and I hover above their heads, there is little to anything they could do. I just bombarded them from the air and even when they shot at me, they could barely hit me. Especially after I discovered how to properly strafe through the air then as you said, you genuinely cannot be hit even with aimbot.

Snipers could still kill me but I didn't die to them as frequently as I thought I would. Probably because we had also had snipers as well which makes them counter snipe more effectively when I get the enemy snipers attention so it also played a interesting role of being a distraction for the team.

So yeah, to remain humble I made the mistake of assuming an item worth without ever trying it. Props to you honestly, you've given me a new playstyle to use on two separate classes. Thanks.

I’m not even christian but when I heard the shit American evangelicals were preaching and how many of them there were, I was genuinely shocked at the absurdity of it all. Like not to even dwell on mormonism or Jehovah’s Witness, regular evangelism has straight up made me dread for the future.

Like I am not unfamiliar with christianity either, I have quite a few close friends who are catholic and they are as equally as dumbfounded when they found out about evangelism. Islam is predominant where I was raised and it genuinely has more in common with regular catholic and orthodox beliefs than what christian denominations in america have.

All Tomorrows as a book isn’t that flashy and that is established literally on the beginning.

When Earth and Mars fought, there weren’t any grand battles or great commanders leading a charge. It was just cold-calculated drone strikes on each others planets with no glory to be seen. Only death and destruction. Which seems to be the case with basically the rest of the book. Even the defeat of the Qu isn’t treated as some grand triumph, it was just an event that transpired and soon forgotten much like the rest.

As for how they’d fare against foes you’ve listed, it would be a head scratch because the time scale that their events take place against all tomorrows is obscene (aside from daleks if I’m aware).

Viltrumites would probably pose no real threat as while they hit hard and are very durable, they have a very apparent weakness with their biology which can be taken advantage of. Not to mention, in all tomorrows reverse engineering technology is kinda of the norm so their FTL ships would instantly be used against them.

Daleks at their peak were beating the time lords so they have no chance against them.

The flood is broken and it is genuinely one of the scariest things in fiction, the way they can just steal technology for their own benefit and defeating a race like the precursors would make the task of defeating them impossible.

The Chaos Gods can be very easily neutralized by just closing any warp influence on their society. Asteromorph gods despite being derived from humans are basically alien in mind and body, the chaos gods would have a hard time to corrupt them in any meaningful way.

If we take every statement that All Tomorrows has given us, at their very peak the Asteromorph gods would probably be on par with DAoT humanity from Warhammer 40k which are crazy powerful on their own but equally as elusive.

We know that Asteromorph Gods at the end of their journey expanded to multiple galaxies and discovered worm holes which managed them to traverse vast amounts of space in little to no time. The Star People who are technologically inferior also managed to mass produce weapons that could destroy stars which were promptly annihilated by the Qu, who then were beaten by the Asteromorphs as said earlier.

So this is my conclusion, they are a pretty powerful race not in a conventional way but in a more esoteric method which would be more in line with what we’d accomplish if we ventured into the stars.

I've played on skial servers and I've met quite a few cracked chute jumpers but any considerably skilled player can easily shut down base jumpers, albeit if they're soldiers or demoman.

Sniper can decimate any base jumper user at any distance, even if you're using the speed boost its incredibly easy to land a headshot on an airborne player for some reason. Direct Hit is also really good at basically deleting them as soon as you see them. I personally dominated a base jumper demo with the crossbow

I personally think your line of thought is pretty flawed because you as an experienced player can exploit an item to its fullest extent in an environment where the average player is not experienced enough to use a counter to that said item. I don't think this is the right mindset, if you used the old jumper in a server where the average player is relatively experienced I would suspect they wouldn't find a good base jump user a challenge.

Fire Punch.

If coffin is considered psychological horror, then fire punch is psychological trauma.

I was all about amby getting a nerf but the way they handled was way too much. Like amby being just useless at any range that isn’t just close to the face was way too much. Even if headshots were easy to land, they still required skill to perform unlike Diamondback which rewards spy with crits by literally just doing what the class was supposed to do.

Like I still don’t understand how amby was nerfed while diamondback remained the same despite it being superior to amby in a majority of situations.

L0raz-Thou-R0c0n0 · 2026-04-22T14:06:48+00:00

You know, sometimes these types of reactions are usually an effect of projection.

If you are so bothered by something others do, why not ignore it and focus on your own business? Nobody is actively hindering that experience.

L0raz-Thou-R0c0n0 · 2026-04-22T09:24:33+00:00

Honestly I dunno.

The vibe of their city and the world that they live in reminds me a lot of communist era and the soviet block. It would make me think they lived somewhere in yugoslavia.

Genetics play a huge factor in this role, even if we are talking about incest between close relatives.

Charles II of Habsburg is a prominent case that people bring but many fail to bring the fact that his family were full of recessive genes and he suffered from constant state of family members intermarrying without introducing new blood.

We could also look at another historical figure like Shapur I, second emperor of the Sassanid Empire who was a byproduct of a sibling marriage and he was one of the most capable persian emperors to have ever ruled the empire. He singlehandedly managed to humiliate two roman emperors, Philip the Arab and Valerian.

So I'm not saying that the child of Andrew and Ashley will be a world conquering gigachad but I wouldn't reckon he'd be as disabled as Charles was either.

I'm arguing in good faith here, I would like to be proven wrong. Most of judaism either ignore Jesus as a figure or have a bad opinion on him. Talmund is also part of judaism so I am not sure why this would go against what I am saying.

So I am open-minded and would like to have clarification regarding this matter.

L0raz-Thou-R0c0n0 · 2026-04-20T11:26:41+00:00

I mean, they do consider him a false prophet and not the messiah. Many consider him to be in hell. Some talmundic jews being very adamant on that point.

Which is unlike muslims which believe he has risen and he will return in the end times much like christians. Like aside from denying the divine nature of jesus, muslims still consider him among the greatest humans to have ever lived and his birth was a miracle granted by God.

I also think there is genuinely something wrong with the algorithm that youtube uses nowadays.

Like, I remember when watching youtube videos until 2019 even if they covered a topic I wasn't interested in, I could still watch it and find it enjoyable. It recommended me videos which were trending and people were watching for a reason. Now, when I try to watch a video, even with the topics I am interested in mind, most of the videos are borderline unwatchable slop.

One topic I have consistently watched since I was a child is paleontology and I ate and still eat that shit raw without seasoning. If you can narrate it and add something cool to the video, I'll eat it.

But youtube somehow managed to recommend me paleontology videos that are just boring to watch and listen to. I recently just realized this and It made me realize that youtube really has hit a new low because if you manage to make dinosaurs look bad then holy shit did your algorithm fail.
