It does, in fact, keep happening.

Homestuck fandom fucking listen to me I am grabbing you by your shoulders right now - if they do keep updating homestuck^2 WE ARENT FUCKING REPEATING LAST TIME . WE ARENT HARASSING THE TEAM BEHIND IT. WE ARENT BEING FUCKING DICKS.
if you don't like it or the direction they're going that's completely fair, but this is a team of people working to update a comic we all thought was dead FOR FREE. it isn't hard to just. Not be a dick about it. Don't read it if you don't like it

So: it turns out that – regardless of whether it was the original plan – what Homestuck: Beyond Canon's third writing team in five years is going with seems to be a cosmic battle between a godlike asshole who thinks transformative fiction has a moral obligation to engage in thematic and structural fidelity with its source material, and a godlike asshole who thinks transformative fiction shouldn't exist at all. It's an interesting direction, if an obvious one. In fact, it's so obvious that the Final Fantasy VII Remake trilogy is treading the exact same ground at the exact same time; it's going to be pretty fucking bizarre watching to see which of them – if either! – manages to stick the landing.
