Most of it isn't THAT bad, some of the quirks and colors are more readable than others (red is particularly eye-searing, definitely on the worse end, and only one of the main characters uses it) but a lot of the text is colored one way or another. That particular character's letter su6stitutions are definitely on the harder-to-parse end of the spectrum, too.

There is a full text log of the comic, with links to the panels, and you could pretty easily C/P it to word and turn it all to black text, but that doesn't help much if it's the quirks that make it hard to read (although I found they got easier to understand a lot quicker than I expected.)

TLDR it's all like that but not QUITE as egregiously, and there are workarounds available for people who want to try them but nothing will ever make HS a normal reading experience.

I think most colored text I could do, it's more the ‘quirks’. I rarely read anything that involves tons of spelling errors or misuse of capitalization, and I think it might be difficult to just go with that. This is a bit of a stupid reason to not want to read something I guess, but just in case I decide to I'm gonna save this link for future reference. Ty for that! (I hope it helps someone else, too.)

[grimdarning]

For the record, the first several acts focus heavily on the human characters, who definitely have distinct writing styles but don't use the whacky quirks, so they might give you a sense of wth is up with the comic and whether it's worth it to you to deal with the quirks when they show up.

I think that's a totally legit reason not to get into it, though - if something like that makes it less fun for you, then you shouldn't spend your leisure time on it! And Homestuck takes up a lot of time, damn. Good luck, whatever you decide!

[elaminator]

Oh, that's good to know! That's gives me a bit of relief, actually.

I might eventually try it, but I have a lot of things I'm occupied with right now so it's on hold. As long as that stuff isn't everywhere from the very beginning I might be able to handle it.

And Homestuck takes up a lot of time, damn.

From everything I've heard, it sounds like it! Heh.

Thanks again! IDK about the rest of Homestuck fandom, but you people on fs! are awful friendly.

[grimdarning]

Oh man, I definitely know how that goes. I've been intending to watch Kings and The Wire for like...two years? But life just keeps being busy.

You're welcome! Aww, thanks! This made me really happy to hear. I was really wary of HS fandom's reputation before I read it myself, so now I try to represent us better when I can.
