Alright, calmed down a bit. Haven't read the backlog but I'll assume some people clowned and promptly moved on. I'd trash the post if the button wasn't broken.
Turns out Vivziepop is only an exec and probably won't have control over the story or writing (whoops) - I don't think she sucks, but her writing chops do *not* suit a Homestuck adaptation. I think they realised this early on, though, hence the exec role.
Still conflicted about this though.
My main concern is that a Homestuck animated show cannot do the original work justice at all, given the medium(s). If I was in charge I honestly couldn't figure out how to do it without either writing an entirely different story or creating an inferior product. Which is what it'll probably be, a high-budget and more popular yet blander version of Homestuck's story, but I've made my peace with that.
Regarding the "nerd cred" shit - mostly thinking of all the growing pains from something getting more popular, especially when entering back into modern day Fandom Culture™, as will probably happen. Also, imagine a Homestuck/Helluva Boss hybrid fandom. Imagine
