No, he was a satyr. He was this satyr. And Mrs. Mookie was the nymph.

Right, I'm done. This comic has been spinning its wheels for almost two months and it's like having open heart surgery without an anesthetic. Nothing is loving happening. At least with the original Deegan you could mock the lovely dialogue or dumb ideas or horrible characters -- Snout is an idiot with the personality of white bread stumbling from one situation to the next. There are no stakes, no conflict, nothing that makes me want to keep reading this even in a hateful kind of way. Mookie is a talentless hack with perverse sexual hang-ups and I wish nothing but misery upon him.

He uploaded the rest of the week in the usual way already. The last comic of the week had a bit of a twist. It's still not good, but it looks like he might bring it back to the main plot after however many damned pages of senseless wandering.

There’re a ton of them already, but they’ve all been busy shooting each other out of boredom from waiting for their cue.

With that said, my new prediction is that by the end of the week, Corpse Bride will write "SNOUT IS FRIEND. I LIKE SNOUT." in Snout's journal. They will then cuddle naked and she will show up in his dreamvisionthing. Bonus prediction: When they wake up, Corpse Bride will write something else in Snout's journal. He'll look and it will say "IT'S BEEN 200 YEARS SINCE DOMINIC DEEGAN BEGAN HIS"

I'm calling half a point if she shows up in Dreamspace.

Fear not. It's just an intrusive thought, like the brief contemplation of jumping over the side when on the observation deck of a skyscraper. No one here actually wants to contact Mookie. Whatever's wrong with him might get on us.

His twitter engagement levels are honestly just terrible. Like, for serious, ~18 hearts on twitter for art is firmly "friends and family" level of interaction. I get not everyone's following it through twitter but I have to imagine, as corona hits its true phase 2 boss fight mode, it's going to get harder for people to justify giving him money for a story that's going nowhere. Only the truest sunk-cost weirdos are gonna stick around for it?

A year into any story that updates this frequently you should at least have an idea what kind of themes the story wants to explore. You should have at least an idea of the stakes. Of the main character's MOTIVATION. We're over a year into this and he's still just jerking himself off. It's absolutely incredible.

Mookie, please, actually tell a story.

It seems like all his Patreon content is just twee and/or horny peeks into the old Deegan universe. The Legacy is like a free to play mobile game where yeah, you can experience it without spending money, but the grind will be an agonizing slog designed to torment you into paying for actual enjoyment.

I like how Ink Witch has a ship (for some reason) that destroyed his house to get her (for some reason) then crashed (for some reason) and no explanation for that ship was ever given

The obvious answer is "wouldn't it be cool if there was an ominous ship!?" and "what if that ship destroyed his house!!" and "what if hte ship crashed...reuniting them!!!" and then once he was done with the toy it was out of sight out of mind but c'monnnnnnnn

Rotten Red Rod

I think maybe the ship was a spell she cast? But maybe it went haywire because of the Wild Edge, so I guess that's why she never used it again? But her ink drippings didn't have an issue with that, or the bad guys' teleport spells, or the orcs' sleep spell, etc etc

Also that, as Argue Proof hilarious pointed out via edit, happened right after Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter crash.

Now that you mention it, yeah, it’s weird as hell that we still have no explanation for the ship’s existence, considering everything else about the setting is apparently still “modern with a slapdash layer of medieval fantasy painted over it”. Especially if it’s supposed to be just as alien in-universe.

Beelzebufo

It's just Mookie's lack of planning. The ship was supposed to be a representation that years had passed since the story we were experiencing in Dominic Deegan. It was basically like those future glances in Adventure Time. I would even say that he basically stole the ship design from there. But he forgot that and/or got bored with it, so it was summarily dispatched by smashing it into the Earth never to be thought of again. At that point he was obviously trying to bring his waifu and his new self-insert together.

Yeah, I meant to add that it was “probably a casualty of the mystery box plot”, but got hung up chasing my dog around in the middle of writing that. :v:

Really, though, that could have been yet another potential hook that got wasted: a medieval lite setting that has a futuristic civilization of magic users that are basically treated like we treat aliens by everyone else in the setting.
