killua: yeah yeah whatever see i’m rolling and [throws dice on table and doesn’t look] oh wow she did great! so great i think maybe she does a QUADRUPLE backflip

So considering your most recent video about the portal and I wonder, do you think hiveswap is secretly the epilogue we were promised?

No. Hussie’s news post was very clear:

The Epilogue is in active development, and Hussie is working with Viz Media on it. We can expect more info on what it is sometime this year, though of course, there’s always the possibility things will be delayed somewhat. Still, it’s coming. 

This information has gone ignored partly because there isn’t really a good, centralized community source from which to get clear info on Homestuck/Hiveswap. Tumblr is great for creative fandom purposes but not really excellent at transmitting key facts to the fandom.

And partly because the fandom is still operating under the salt-fueled mass delusion that Homestuck as a vibrant IP is somehow “over”, despite the fact that Hussie’s statement makes it pretty clear that all that seems to have “ended” with [S] Credits is the comic, and we’re not even sure about that much.

Both of these are problems I’m trying to correct. I have no idea what the Epilogue is, but it isn’t Hiveswap. Which just means theres more things to look forward to on the horizon.
