Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People is about to get delisted from digital storefronts. You DO own it, right?
Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People is about to get delisted from digital storefronts. You DO own it, right?
Thanks for telling me user. Guess I'll buy it now before it's too late.
Why is that? Also yes, I have all episodes.
Telltale stuff is getting delisted since they went under
Redpill me on homestar runner. What the fuck is it even? I've been hearing people talk about it like it's the most based thing ever for years.
Word-play and puns that get turned into running gags that evolve into fully fleshed out characters and settings: the series
Zoomer tier humor for millenials.
it's basically the only comedy-focused internet content from the early 2000s that still holds up
One of, if not the earliest web cartoon, stars a lot of oddball characters in weird settings. I'm not sure how much holds up outside of the SBemail stuff, but SBemail is genuinely great to this day.
Early 2000s humor cartoon that was accessible to both young and old. Before youtube existed, you either went to homestar or newgrounds for your entertainment.
the trogdor song was in guitar hero 2
No.
>newgrounds
Had so much fun on there in the 90s on a dial up connection.
I remember Homestar tried to make a comeback, what ever happened with that, are they still around?
They are currently in the process of uploading all of their stuff to youtube, including dvd segments and stuff. Also a Trogdor board game just came out and the did a bunch of promotional videos and stuff for it.
Considering it's just an old hobby that the chaps have been done with for years, I wouldn't call it "tried to make a comback", more like "made a few new toons for old-time's sake before Flash gets nuked"
I think the most recent one that wasn't just another board game ad was the halloween mr. poofers video.
>accessible to both young and old
This is what made it unique in my opinion. Pretty much all flash animation back then was super edgy "adult" stuff with lots of swearing and gore, and was filled to the brim with modern pop culture references that make it feel extremely dated nowadays. Homestar was different in that it avoided going overly raunchy and edgy while also being weird enough that it felt cool because it wasn't really intended for younger kids. And it legitimately still holds up today, partly because the pop culture references it made were already outdated and obscure back then, and more importantly because the jokes are really well-written and timeless. I can go watch some old sbemails from 14 years ago and still laugh just as hard now as I did back when they were coming out.
>Mr. Poofer STILL hasn’t been killed yet
The fuck, guys? It shouldn’t be that hard.
Right?
I just remember they stopped for a few years they announced they were uploading to youtube at one point, i watched a new episode or 2 and stopped. Didn't know what happened since then.
It's kinda funny that after all these years the best way to watch every Sbemail will be on youtube, in full HD with uncompressed audio and at least most of the easter eggs.
I'm really, really gonna miss mid-flash easter eggs.
I only pirate video games.
I dunno, generally you are right but strongbad skirts that like Bender
While we’re on the subject, anyone here seen Two More Eggs? It’s made by the same guys. I’ve been watching a bit in order to fill that Homestar-shaped hole in my heart.
youtu.be
Surreal and lolsorandom humor done right
And the only content from the early 2000s to hold up
They're busy raising kids right now, so Homestar is mostly a side thing.
Not bad stuff but I'd still just watch Homestar
I miss funny adventure games. Anyone else play the Harvey Birdman point and click? It's up there with SCG4AP and Sam & Max.
Redpill yourself - Watch the following SBemails:
English Paper
Diorama
Slumber Party
Animal
Video Games
Theme Song
>there's zoomers that don't know what homestar runner is
Think of it as a kid story made for burn out adults
Even though the creators made it for Gen X types
Yeah that's what I meant by "wasn't really intended for younger kids". I think of it this way: Strong Bad was always implied to have done a lot of nasty shit, but you never really see it outside of a few examples. There was never graphic violence or swearing or offensive jokes. Even when the series got extremely non-sequitur and surreal it still had this air of wholesomeness to it.
Essential sbemails?
that's every western cartoon now, granted, but homestar was part of the vanguard and it smells less like weed
Literally who?
Dumb Daisyposter
The creators of the cartoon didn't do it for any money, they did it purely because they enjoyed it, and they shared it because they figured others would enjoy it too. Mind you it isn't some masterpiece, but it is consistent in its quality. At its core, it's a simple, homely, cartoon.
It may very well be perhaps the last batch of pure soul left on the internet, that hasn't been tainted by targeted advertisement sanitation.
we use to think peach is a bimbo because shes blonde but now we know daisys a bimbo because shes loud
The funny thing about this show is that the title references the 17 year old SBemail 'Morning Routine'.
>didn't do it for any money
This is the kind of stuff that makes it downright pure. They only started merchandising because there was fan outcry, and it was all sold on their own store.
These guys made so much money off of selling t-shirts that they could quit their jobs and work on the cartoon full-time, that kind of stuff is insane.
Is Senor Cardgage the original boomer?
True enough I suppose, like pre-cancellation bender
Not my fault you idolize an old fart of a Cartoon.
Sums it up. Two more eggs isn't that bad, but you just have a desire to go back and watch Homestar instead. I understand they didn't want to use Homestar, I can't imagine it ending well with Disney taking control of it, but it's clear they basically just tried to put a new, less interesting coat of paint over Homestar Runner for it.
It may very well be, Malinda!
>avatarfagging too
Kys
Hey there, Belindas
Here comes the Thnikkaman!
YEAH
SHUT UP, KID
I really enjoyed Two More Eggs, some stuff doesn't really hit the mark but there's a lot of good in there, mainly Trauncles and Hot Dip.
I can't imagine how anyone would like it very much if they'd never watched Homestar, though, considering how many callbacks there are to it.
There goes the Thnikkaman!
They were literally doing over a terabyte of data transfer every month by late 2002. That was unheard of for an independent website back then.
you're obviously, without a doubt, under 18
please get the fuck out
Halosh
homestarrunner.com
12 years old and still just as relevant as the day it came out
What are you gonna do about it fag?
And this is why no one likes Daisyfags.
Own it on Steam and physically, when Telltale used to actually give out CDs of their games when you bought the whole season.
Montage has always been a favorite of mine.
Nothing
:^)
Played it on PC, but I just remembered, this game was on Wii as well. Will Strong Bad be in Smash?
Looking into him I see no appeal other than le randum funny voice man.
Then leave. If you don't like the topic of the thread you don't have to stay.
I see no appeal to Daisy
Because its Midnite was on Rock the 80s
Bought it three times
I will never understand why the Brothers Chaps just don't start a Patreon. They'd be filthy stinking rich in no time. Hell, I'm sure plenty of people would make a blood sacrifice for regular Homestar Runner updates again.
there's something wrong with her vagina
Probably the same reason they never had adspace: they already make a living off merch
they ran a poll on twitter a while ago asking what fans would think about them starting one. from what i remember the responses were mostly positive but nothing ever came of it
>tfw you missed your chance to get a Kick the Cheat
They need to bring that shit back, because you can't even find it on ebay
bought it like 8 years ago, played it about 5. good shit (except for episode 2 that one was kinda a slog)
I had it on the Wii
Why is it getting delisted?
They said they’d only do one if they could think of something to consistently release, funny thing is even if they started one and released nothing I still think I’d throw them a dollar a month regardless for all of the cartoons they did for free for a decade
Don’t be a dick, we all know. only said that to get your goat. Now go talk about fortnight you sad zoomer, let us sad old timers talk about an old friend not yet lost to cynicism
Wait, is the same thing gonna happen to Sam and Max?
I know it probably won't happen but I wonder if they'll upload the Stinkoman tracks uncompressed. I really liked that game's music.
The games on HR were great too. Stinkoman would probably be on Steam and eshops if it was made today.
they were supposed to have been making an achewood adult swim show too, but it disappeared
>no sale on said games they're going to pull
I'm really fucking glad I bought that one humble bundle back in late 2017 for 3/4th's of Tell Tales Games
this is the only telltale game i own and i've never played it
its comeback was never really meant to be a big thing, far as I'm aware. It just went from "literally not updating for over 5 years" to "we update like thrice a year now I guess."
last year felt pretty sparse even by those standards though because they put everything into a board game based on trogdor. I guess there was a decent amount of content if you care about that but I kinda spaced out on it. At least they consistently do halloween toons each year since they came back.

>Why don't you creat a montage?
>Oooohhh! Why don't YOU "creat" an alternate reality where you don't have to spell correctly! And I talk like this! And your name is Watered Down!
it's pretty impressive how Strong Bad was able to verbally eviscerate people like that every week.
Is anyone buying out the Telltale library or is everything going to legal hell with Scott Pilgrim
I own it all on WiiWare because I'm cooler and more attractive than all of you.
This was all before social media and especially social media on cell phones, so the fact it got that big through word of mouth (and internet places) is kind of nuts.
mile is still the GOAT
RIP flash
Weren't they supposed to be making a new Stinkoman level?
yes, wrestling
no loafing
trevor the vampire
They got almost two million on that board game, so even if they spent three quarters of it to build the games they’re sitting pretty pretty right now. I hope they try to release their games like stinkoman and peasants quest on the switch I’d pay a few bucks for those.
And you guys are actually moderated at this time of night? Fancy. Good mods for deleting that futa crud
Well of course it would, there were very few animated things out there like Homestar Runner. It's much like how Penny Arcade got super fucking huge because nobody did comics about gaming that was available to the masses. Or Maddox and his tangent rants. If you could operate your own website in 1997 it was a big deal.

Homestar Runner is a sacred topic user, mods and jannies can't let closet gayfags taint the sanctity of a Homestar thread. It's just too pure for this world.
I actually own one. Its insane how rare HR merch is.
You mean redditors?
Now you guys are sure this won't emancipate me from my ridiculous stripèd pants?
i really hope they do another restock of those someday
all I have is the figures. I wish I could at least get the DVDs or something.
how come you don't dance no more
The cheat. Where you going to? And when you get there what you think you're going to do?
fuck smash Strong Bad
>get ye flask
>you can't get ye flask!
I don't have any, because I can never decide what I wanna buy. Sometimes I go and look at stuff like the star shirt, and then I remember that Steven Universe has ruined that.
That's what I said, closet gayfags.
That looks fucking awful. poor spyro's retarded brother hit one too many bongs.
Just call them what they are, cancer from /r9k/ and /pol/.
I just hope they go to updating it every two months, or maybe even every single month.
>taping the cheat to it
You see I never would have thought of that
Let’s not get into it just keep posting homestar
Man, I wonder why I can't grab ye flask???

Maybe someone else will want to do something with Sam and Max now.
Geppernich even looks like he'd fit right in with Limozeen.

Bike Thief, absolutely.
Shit like this happens all the time on Yea Forums. No doubt one of those newfriend tripfags screenshotted this purely for attention.
I'm afraid I've got some bad news, boys. It looks like our friends over at Telltale got into some hot water, and now our game's getting delisted!
I read somewhere Steve Purcell had enough and won't do anything with them
Yeah, shut up, kid!
Listen up straight y'all biscuitheads:
I'd like a piece of dry toast and two scrambled eggs,

I'd be way into a stick of Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People
And yet, seeing threads like those today is like panning for gold, a stream of liquid shit.

This is the second time I've heard of this show today. I think the universe wants me to watch it now and based on what I heard about the premise, it sounds amazingly silly.
that's right...
I would add "long pants" to that list. Also be sure to check out their Youtube as they've been uploading older SBemails in MUCH higher quality.
>not so-and-so
only SDF is good, ignore any 7 fags and all Frontier peasants

There's a good chance you'll be filtered hard by the first 15 episodes. If you can stand repetition and DANCING ON THE PLANET DANCE it's worth it for middle and end of the show

Why the fuck does a company going under mean their games get delisted from Steam?
They should release Walking Dead Season 1 & Wolf Among Us for free on humble bundle before the ship goes down.
Like this post if you agree.
Reminder that if you play this, try to do it with subtitles off. Some of the characters were meant to have their dialogue be barely understood, and subtitles ruin some of the humor.

My immediate family lives in Utah, but most of my Mom’s relatives are in Sweden. Although a few have either moved nearby or have come visited, including Agnes. They’re from Stockholm, to be specific, which my family vacationed in back in 2015, and are about to again this August.

valve should just wrangle something so that they get all the money from new sales
Or maybe the chaps wrangle whatever to buy the game and repost it
How much of the game do they own?
I dunno how franchising works in a situation like this, is it based on the game engine?
It's based on an agreement between the original devs and the license holders.
That's why the Scott Pilgrim game has had such a difficult time trying to get a new release because the license is split between Ubisoft, Universal, and Oni Press.
