It's just jarring for this to happen with the comic's protagonist instead of someone else usually in the early acts, Jade is the one who knows all the mysteries.īut I really do feel like an idiot for having been confused for so long about why John isn't shocked that this game alters reality.Įverything Jade says here starting from "whats sburb?" is super misleading. Much later on, he is the only one who remembers the short reunion between him and the meteor crew, while everyone else's memories were erased. This isn't the only time John knows something that the reader doesn't. Don't miss your chance, SBURB BETA is coming to stores near you on April 10! It is the first of its kind that opens you up to the real world! Exciting enemies and bosses, thrilling planet journeys, and tons of fun with alchemy! Grab your friends for an early sneak peek at this epic adventure. Skaianet's SBURB is an immersive simulation game like no other. This divide between the reader's knowledge and John's knowledge probably throws readers way off, even though it makes complete sense that John would be so excited for a game like this! I can imagine what advertisements for the game were like: Although the reader went into Sburb blind, without any description of this game beyond the house and spirograph icons, John must have known that this game takes place in and alters reality it's just that the reader did not know. Four and a half years after first reading Homestuck, I FINALLY understood why the two are unfazed by this game. I was always so confused that their reaction to what the game does is, "yeah? cool."īut then something hit me. As in their actual real world, not a fictional work that resembles it. John and Rose don't seem surprised or have any profound revelation that Sburb is a game revolving around the real world.
