first of all, I love it and I love how the images are mix of Homestuck and perfect artstile imitation. secondly, Ultimate Dirk's (not Dork, autocorrection) aspect of having memories and personalities of multiple Dirks, including the bastardy ones that are Dave's Bro, AR (well known line if Pokemon AR Evolution form AR to ARquius -> Lil Cal - > ohmygodwhatthefuck), that one Dirk from pre-retcon, is HIGHLY underexplored and underappreciated in the fandom. Even the phrase about splinters of his personality in canon got more attention than this. He just was hyped up for a bit and forgotten about? Thank you for keeping the Ult! Dirk train rolling. Lastly, oh. my. god. I'm so glad lyricstucks as a genre didn't fade into the eternity. And thank you for the song recommendation!
THIS IS SUPER GREAT also like lmaooo who cares about people having "done it before" like this is fanwork, the more versions of similar ideas the better, and i LOVE your version a lot
I love how you did this. The jump cut isn't completely clean, but you keep as much as you can in without over-whelming yourself too much in order to get it out by the deadline. I honestly believe that this song deserves more Homestuck AMVs because of just how many characters (usually under someone else's initial influence) are manipulative, including Hussie himself, which has never been present as the 'villian' in the AMVs before this point, which is absolutely lovely. ❤
"Bore him and you will find you are crumpled up and thrown away" Hussie killed off Nepeta and Equius because he thought they were boring characters to write for.
here i thought he killed off Equius because he's a component of Lord English, and Nepeta because of her wanting to be a hero against Gamzee and paying the price
@@hidrogenados5388 that isnt right. rose mentioned pretty early that horrorterrors help her and that they are being destroyed (you know by whom). it was one of the earliest nods. also the alpha kids were set up from the very beggining, that wouldnt have been made possible if hussie didnt have at least some outline for them and LE.
To have your splinters of yourself remind you of all your mistakes and shortcomings but also of the times you did good or maybe even fell in love but lost in the end .... Oh huh sorry I was rambling don't mind me just continue scrolling hehe
this is just really cool. lots of attention to detail and great framing with the shades that makes it unique from the average amv. One tiny suggestion- when the words 'game of life' appear what about having 'life' either crossed out and 'SBURB' next to it or 'SBURB' overlaying it?
I actually planned on using the Sburb logo/other Sburb imagery on some lines of the song (but not replacing the actual lyrics text). Too bad I ran out of time to get this out on 10/25 and didn't have the time to figure out how to implement that idea.
I am but a humble Dirk Strider enjoyer crawling out of my cave and frothing at the mouth over this, very belatedly because I forgot UA-cam existed for a hot minute there but holy SHIT this is amazing.
@Saul Statman a kinnie is a person who kins! kinning is, basically, feeling a very strong connection to a character and- since being kin with somebody in the literal sense means to be related to them- relating to said character at a very deep, spiritual level. pretty much just looking at a character and feeling a sense of shared identity towards them :)
Me: Haha wow why's this old relic on my UA-cam feed Me: wait- this was uploaded THREE WEEKS AGO?? There was an old lyricstuck to this song years ago, but im glad to see another take on it! Good job!
Wow this is soooo cool! The animation is super clean and refined; it looks like so much time and effort was put into it! Fantastic job, and great tribute to Homestuck and its following works!
Dirk -> Hal -> ARquius -> Lord English If Ultimate Dirk is a consolidation of every Dirk*, then that means L.E. is back (because he never left, he is already here) *except for MSPAR Timeline Dirk and Brain Dirk In Jake's Head
(except the implication that doc scratch is tied in with the splinters because one-ew, yikes. two-dirk has directly stated he isnt into girls so. i do know where the implied stuff comes from within homestuck. but i mean. fanon right? yeet yeet.)
not a single word rhymes! isnt that ironic considering it's dirk? and isn't THAT ironic considering it's dirk and isn't that too ironic considering it's dirk... ad infinitum
This is great. This song fits Homestuck perfectly.
If it did they wouldn't need to skip half the song.
@@bestaround3323 The first half fits perfect.
@@bestaround3323 I'd argue the whole song fits.
When your friends get high on Cherub drugs and try to make you do it too so you control their lives instead
epic prank
Ultimate Dirk moment
oh my god

All hail ultimate dork
He is indeed a edgey dork that put a trump anylogy into power
Ultimate dork Our Lord and saviour
He IS the ultimate dork tho, Manz is literally dressed like an anime character
Can y'all imagine a non homestuck trying to understand this comment lmao
This has so many metaphors and phrases that fit so well into Dirk's story on so many layers, it's amazing!
i didnt enjoy dirk a lot ever since he became a super villain but the dude has some AMAZING content
THIS IS SUPER GREAT also like lmaooo who cares about people having "done it before" like this is fanwork, the more versions of similar ideas the better, and i LOVE your version a lot
This video is the one thing that helped me realize that Dirk is technically also a component of Lord English
Huh

@@tirone7520 Ya' know, you have a point, I was wrong
Thanks btw
man this is so cool. love how you used the splinters for this
the fact a version of this was done with normal dirk waaaay back before the OG comic was even finished, and now we're here... oof
Oh yum!!! More homestuck!! It fits perfectly with Dirk and his splinters :D
Feels like I just got punched back in time almost a decade. Thanks!
To have your splinters of yourself remind you of all your mistakes and shortcomings but also of the times you did good or maybe even fell in love but lost in the end ....
Oh huh sorry I was rambling don't mind me just continue scrolling hehe
I feel like I didn’t really like the idea of ultimates and how they were handled before but now I think I get it I can now enjoy ^2 thank you

@@Ymilliaine still super cool anyway and yeah, meeting a deadline sometimes means compromising on complexity.
i'm so glad i'm not the only one who still likes this song and also relates it to homestuck omg
this is so well done oml
Damn this makes me so nostalgic for the early 2010s lmao
Now im thinking about a kindergarten homestuck au
Honestly, Hussie is a great villain, and he knows it.
I am but a humble Dirk Strider enjoyer crawling out of my cave and frothing at the mouth over this, very belatedly because I forgot UA-cam existed for a hot minute there but holy SHIT this is amazing.
OK but dirk is now the God and this is so freaking amazing how much it fits in a different
As an Ult!Dirk kinnie, this means a hell of a lot. Beautiful vid, dude.

I wish that were my experience with it. I was unfortunate enough to encounter the MLP version first

Oh fucking WORM
épico
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

hell fucking YES this is so good
Happy 413!
I just watched God's work
THIS IS SO GOOD IM SCFREAMING THANK YOU

Wait the homestucks are still alive?
Is this song on spotify?
while this is great, i believe arquius's horns are missing?
Finally someone noticed it. (oops...)
Don’t mind the random noncanon kinnie over here simping for all Dirks.. 👋
(except the implication that doc scratch is tied in with the splinters because one-ew, yikes. two-dirk has directly stated he isnt into girls so. i do know where the implied stuff comes from within homestuck. but i mean. fanon right? yeet yeet.)
not a single word rhymes! isnt that ironic considering it's dirk?
and isn't THAT ironic considering it's dirk
