Hello! I’m Homestuck Examination, and for a while now I have been doing Class and Aspect analysis stuff. With the advent of the Canon Aspect Quizand some pretty interesting explanations of each Aspect, I decided to make a Class Quiz, which you can take following this link:
Ever since I made this Quiz, people have been asking me to go more in-depth about some of the Classpect Combinations, and until now I’ve been answering them separately- But then, given they just kept coming and repeated ones kept popping up in my Inbox I thought, what the hell? I may as well do every single one of them broadly and get it over with!
Below I’ll post links to analysis for each Class individually on its own, and a broad view over how each Class Pair would interact with each Aspect.
A foreword about this analysis, the pairings may not exactly match up your personal Headcanons, specially talking about the Knight/Page alignment and the Sylph/Maid and Heir/Witch pairings, but I do explain my reasoning in the analysis, and you should check thisif you want a more in-depth analysis about the reasoning between these pairings and power ideas.
Furthermore, Classes sharing the same Verb are similar enough with their powers that they may be interchangeable- So what a Bard of Time can do, a Prince of Time likely can, and so on, so if you don’t exactly agree with my analysis, make sure to check the Passive/Active counterpart!
Hope my analysis helps you come to terms with your own Classpect, or think of fun interactions and things Players could do within a Session!
Kudos to @revolutionaryduelist for his amazing analysis of Homestuck as well as the little Class Cards, and to homestucking-girl for the base sprite I used for the Mage Class!

@revolutionaryduelist they laid off everybody making the game, including key art and writing talent, and all of those people have found other jobs. I don’t know how much more dead you can get
Hiveswap was considered “dead vaporware” for years before it actually came out because of the delays and rumors swirling around it, and now here Act 1 is, being great. If Hiveswap was ever going to be canceled, I really think it would’ve been back then.
First, the most important thing to address is, Hiveswap’s
development absolutely will continue. The approach to its development
will evolve as this transition goes forward, but ensuring the release of
the full Hiveswap series remains our priority. We should have more
specific information about what exactly this means for Hiveswap in
coming weeks.
In the more immediate future, WPG is shifting focus to making smaller, fun, lightweight games that can be produced more quickly.
We don’t know what Hiveswap’s development will look like yet, but those smaller fun games have been coming like clockwork since. If WP were dead, they wouldn’t be.
The friendsims are really good, too, and going criminally underrated at the moment, so this kind of fearmongering nonsense is worse than useless-it’s actively harmful to a small indie studio going through a rough time and trying it’s best.
Yup, that’s the point you just stay still and let it do whatever the fuck it wants that doesn’t involved you getting eaten.
REALLY FUN FACT for big cats cheetahs are fucking docile as shit
my grandfather ran a cheetah sanctuary in south africa and he’d just lie with them and sleep among them and they’d rub against him and chirp at him they’re big fucking babies
Another Fun Fact: Cheetahs are incredibly nervous animals. One of the (many) reason’s they’re going extinct is that cheetahs are so sensitive and nervous, some of them are literally too nervous to breed. Others will breed, but stress themselves out so much, they’ll lose their cubs.
So zoos with breeding programs had to figure out how to make cheetahs comfortable enough to first of all, get laid and secondly – not spazz themselves into miscarrying.
So what’d they do? They gave the cheetah’s their very own Service Dogs!
The dogs make them feel safe, protected and secure!
