This is the worst thing I've ever read in my life.
>>151662279Ashamed what happen, but I guess its better that the author came clean instead of just leaving it unresolved forever
>>151662279It started out so great, so much potential, then it just.. turned into a lot of nothingalso I think it went gay? I forget. Most webcomics do.>>151662541oh is there a whole story here? wanna TLDR me?
>>151662279I'm only vaguely aware of it because of the Toby Fox songs
>>151662279This comic was hardcore proof she should have just stuck with that goofy video game format even though she became so ashamed of it for some reason she actively tried to scrub all of her old comics off of the internet. That incident where she got caught making threads on 4chan complaining about herself didn't help either. It's a shame because the style was genuinely cute as hell but its author seems to have been genuinely insane in equal measure.
>>151662279she stopped "Hi I'm Daisy" for this crap.>>151664596why the fuck would she do that is beyond me.I still don't understand why she was so ashamed or why people denounce the thing that made them popular in the past so much.
>>151664596>That incident where she got caught making threads on 4chan complaining about herself didn't help either.That was so incredibly lame it made me lose all respect I previously had for her even in spite of the comics thing.>>151664611>or why people denounce the thing that made them popular in the past so much.It's most often the result of someone becoming afraid that it's all they'll ever be known for even if they have way bigger plans/ideas. Probably most famously there's the case of Radiohead being driven absolutely insane by the success of Creep out of a fear it'd be the only song they'd ever be known for, to the point that it actively drove them to be more creative in an attempt to distance themselves from their earlier sound.
>>151662279>>151662541>>151664596I have only read the first ones a long time ago after watching the persona comics a long time ago. Can I have a quick rundown?
>>151667114I love this guy
>>151667542Basically, and I'm skipping over a lot of details for brevity's sake:>Hiimdaisy/GGDG makes a bunch of goofy vidya comics that blow up and become big internet memes>Gets ashamed of them for some reason and tries to have them completely stricken from the internet>Announces she's making Cucumber Quest, a genuinely pretty cute-looking comic that has some promise from that golden age of early 2010s webcomics, but keeps playing into culture wars stuff on her social media, suggesting those "nasty 4chan people" hate her comic for credit>Gets caught making a thread on 4chan when she complains about someone making a thread about her stuff literally seconds before she posted said complaint about said thread on her media>Popularity of the comic gradually wanes as it ends up kind of going nowhere and falls into irritating patterns of anticlimaxes and everyone shitting on the MC for no clear reason>After a while announces that she can't really finish the comic so it just ends
>>151667758I didn't know about making 4chan threads of herself, that's wild.Also what exactly did they do the MC?
>>151667859Just basic stuff like>Hey guys I've figured it out!>Lol no you didn't>Oh shit, I guess I didn't, damn.>Me, who is better than the MC, I have figured it out!>Wow! You are so much cooler and smarter than the MC!
>>151662279only saw jelloapocalypse's attempt at dubbing this before seeing somewhere he gave up doing it
>>151667758Damn, that's a shame, the art was good, but I remember the plot being a nothingburger even at the beginning.
>>151667758>>151667877I want to add to what this anon's saying by mentioning that there was a stretch of the comic where this MC thing would happen like once every 5 - 10 pages. It got REALLY fucking old.
>>151667932>>151667877It just sounds like the punchline you see in the Persona comic.Only it works for that one because its poking fun at the game's writing.This just sounds fucking stupid.Maybe she caught on to this and just decided to stop it overall.
>>151667993It's basically like that except if it was played straight, it was really annoying and after a while you just started to feel bad for this kid that was trying his best but kept getting shit on by the universe.
>>151664596>>151664611She honestly thought she was smarter than that, that's why. It's the classic case of an artist realizing they're fucking stupid despite having all that skill. The worst part is she thought leaving the story like that was for stupid people, which made her look even shittier.
>>151667114I enjoy CQ but my man Nightmare Knight is still way too good to be stuck in it
>>151662279You are stupid, OP.
Post rare fanarts
I love Gigi's colors so much that I still check CQ pages again now and then, but even while the comic was still ongoing I remember thinking that Gigi was so rude to their own fans on Twitter. Like the Thomas Astruc kind of attitude.
>>151669289It's funny how unlikable Carrect was.
>>151669532She, Gigi is a woman. She also dated Toby Fox and was riding his dick for fame. I'm even joking she came out and said it yourself.
>>151669721That's a funny way of spelling "Almond."
>>151669865It's so weird how it feels like you're supposed to like Almond but she just comes off as a shithead.
>>151669923Almond is basically Goku.
>>151662279>love the style>love the designs>offensively bland writingThis is usually enough for me to get through something but>author so insufferable she actively sabotages the comic>also straight up quits after a pointMy seething is great, but my disappointment is greater.
>>151669865I did like the follow-up we got in a later chapter. Wish we'd been able to see more of it (the resolution in chapter 4 was a pretty clear "this is not actually fine and is going to blow up again later" thing)
>>151670382
>>151670382>>151670402brutal.
This thread is like taking a step through a time warp back to when this comic was still updating and it's reminding me of everything I loved about it, hated about it, and how I was actually pretty bummed out it got cancelled because it seemed like it was finally starting to build towards something interesting. Whole thing's kind of a tragedy told through very pretty colors.
Made three kickstarters for it just to can it anyway.
>>151669002Each of the girls needs a spanking.
>>151664596I have to admit I have been very tempted to anonymously join in the vitriol against me and make it look worse. kinda Kevin Smith picketing Dogma sorta thing.But over time I've realized they already make themselves look bad. They regularly show screencapped quotes of mine that are objectively correct, and it's really just 2 or 3 people who haven't already picked up on who's in the right. The rest just don't wanna fight>>151667758that's so weird.. artists being motivated by spite is one thing, but.. it's supposed to be spite against the people keeping you down. Not your fucking customers.
>>151670728how is that legal
>>151667897I assume he either lost interest or was asked by Hiimdaisy to stop.
>>151672461The books all got produced, it's not like they were promised for future updates but rather existing pages.
>>151664596>incident where she got caught making threads on 4chan complaining about herselfI don't know how I missed this given I was around for the rebrand. That's so embarrassing.
>>151662279It’s nice
