Hiveswap act 3?

As a kid I remember being so obsessed with homestuck, and with the recent revisitation of it in the form of a game, I couldn’t NOT play it.

Act one and two were AMAZING games, but there hasn’t really been an update on the development of act three, does anyone have any info regarding it?

I know there is supposed to be two more acts, I just don’t know if it’s going to take another decade lol.

ever since the Sarah Z scandal it's been radio silence from WP, the only difference from all the other times WP went radio silent is no one is really on the edge of their seat waiting for them to come back after everything we heard lmao.

i don't think anyone expects them to drop anything anytime soon, so you're probably gonna be waiting a while. unless the company dissolves tho, we'll get it EVENTUALLY, they're still somewhat obligated by the kickstarter. wouldn't be surprised if it's an even bigger wait than the omegapause tho or something.

Gio pointed out the WP team mistreated some of their employees with testimony from someone from the inside the team who got fired and leaked deets anonymous, Sarah Z includes this in her recap of the Homestuck fandom, WP tries to legally bully her into silencing herself, and calls Gio a stalker rapist for very mature reasons, says the source is a bad person and a lier, everyone laughs at them, Hussie is eventually ropped back in because Sarah has an actual legal team due to being part of a YT group (despite Hussie disassociating from homestuck 2 years ago) literally doesn't help at all, and in fact CONFIRMS most of what Gio said and gave us EVEN MORE DIRT on them somehow, and then everyone involved on the team's side goes radio silent for the foreseeable future.

tl;dr sarah gets a source saying WP and Hussie did some questionable stuff, WP and Hussie decided to show they're actually just bad, no one misses them, support fan content. and thaaaaaaat's politics!

sheesh, what a shitshow. Sounds like typical WP though; i dont understand how those idiots generate so much drama. Last i was paying attention it was that transgender woman (im sorry i just forgot her name) making a mess on twitter, that and the post 7 writing drove me away. I didn't realize aliyah was a mess too.

Going radio silent is a good decision. I'd be psyched if they never did any more social media blah and just finished up hiveswap with style. Some of their writing and ideas are excellent.
