Thanks for the hires versions of the comic, anon.
Sean is hot.

Nikko seems to actually try in this comic, his art seems a lot less sloppy and the faces nowhere near as smushy as in his own comic and the commissions he does. Guess it's the longer snouts of the characters (since in the panel with Bowser Jr. it's still there).

Also, Sean's shoe magically disappears going from page 1 to 2. :P

No problem, might as well post the hi resolution ones instead of the shitty compressed FA ones. Posting for this comic will be restricted for every 1-2 weeks. Will only post what the artist puts out on his FA.

Keep in mind the artist has other projects in the works. So till then, kick you feet up, chat, and enjoy till the next page on FA is posted.

The one's in the foreground of the mentioned comic page stick out about a foot, have the prongs going straight up and down, and have a very small gap between the protrusion and the next turnstile. It's like he's never seen one, just heard about them in legend.

I guess. He has the same problem as Sal where he draws these unnecessarily hyperrealistic bodies, detailing every single fold of people's foot skin and balls and abs and foreskins and then sticks these ludicrous, cartoony heads on them which he then applies said hyperrealism to. The charmeleon character's face looks like he's 75, and Bowser Jr. from the main Roommates comic looks like fat dreadlocked Axl Rose cosplaying as Bowser.

These twin whatever-the-fuck-mons just look so ungainly and awkward. Their weird horns/head protrusions are *enormous* and feel ridiculously out of place.

sal's style steps right into the uncanny valley, most of the copyright characters sal uses goes far from their original design which gives them this creepy unsettling look for the intention of being "realistic". Not because is realistic means is now cool or better but adding a bit of style may look appealing like Kenket does. Sure Sal wants to give them a body in proportion to a human one but doesn't mean the face also need to have a strict treatment, too.

i don't mind that much this comic, is pretty tamed and more stylistic than Sal's attempt to "what if everyone looked realistic" approach.

>>1283849
ah yes, the haters gonna hate respond because that abolish everyone's criticism.
Look, nobody here is complaining Sal's anatomy, is actually good in some occasions and I can let go the exceptions because nobody can be that consistent and nobody can make a perfect scaled proportions on close or far away shots. My only beef is how creepy the faces look because instead of keeping the traits that makes the characters recognizable, he changed them for the sake of realism instead of finding something in between, I'm not saying anyone can make a better job (I mean it is possible but that wasn't my point)but that's why I used Kenket example as to show there is a way to make something that can be realistic but not fully realistic, Nikko probably tried to but it looks like he based the designs more on how Sal draws them. So next time try a better answer than just a meme reply

I still love how everyone felt bad for him in the main comic (roomates) but turns out he just wanted sex and is a really slutty guy.

That aside the artistic style of the comic just seems...odd. Its like its trying to be a 2000's style super hero comic with its coloring and shading but then reminds you its a porn comic with unrealistic physics and bodies. Like the two..dragon? Brothers? gym outfits are super loose baggy clothes yet have clear defined bulges and cling tightly only to their asses to show them off. Also once again a comic where every guy in it seems to be gay with all the dormats checking them out as they walked by.

I just don't get it...are artist afraid if they put in a straight dude in their comic people won't like it suddenly? Why does every single guy have to be gay or bi. But I digress..I get it its a comic and a porn one at that but there is just too much "off feeling" moments to find anything hot.

Not bashing the artist its more then I could ever do but I just don't think the style of everything fits with it being a porn comic but again in the end its a porn comic so most people won't care....cause porn.

Actually I feel bad for him being a slut because he's insecured about being in a solid relationship. My hope is he being so affictionated to the twins (by being fucked by them) that he starts to actually like them. After this comic I totally see them together but probably the artist will make them just a fuckbudds, which is sad.

I really hope they turns out together.

That's how the entire Roommates comic works anyway. It's a shallow digimon/pokemon/koopa porn comic that pretends it's deep when they try to shoehorn in relationship drama. The problem is that the protagonists have no real flaws, their challenges are resolved with little to no effort, usually via immediate, clear, and healthy communication (something that's nice in real life but makes for shitty stories), and the overarching "plot" is so distant and so abstract as to be essentially nonexistent.

What even *IS* the plot of Roommates? What even *IS* the conflict?

There basically isn't one. Charmeleon dude here got sad for a page because digimon dude's weird Bowser boyfriend wouldn't let them fuck even though he *knew* they were dating and he got to spitroast him anyway. Why do we feel sorry for him? What was he hoping, that they would magically break up so he could bone digimon dude in the ass? Why? Since when do we care at all about that or do we think for even one fraction of a second that that's even a possibility?

And this comic is literally just weird-looking pokemon twins being instantly gay and having infinite sex with someone they just met while everyone in the hallway is also pants-rippingly gay the *second* they see the tumor-head twins groping pokeman on their way down the hall.

I know it's porn and it's all just an excuse for sex, but if you're going to have a plot and characters, ACTUALLY HAVE A PLOT AND CHARACTERS, and if you're not going to have those things, at least make the horny cardboard cutouts *attractive*.

I've always felt like Roomates would be a lot better if the characters had been their own original species and not based on other copyrighted works. It could work on its own as a slice-of-life series, but admittedly the designs take me right out of it.

It's not just that they're specific species. Jr is literally supposed to be the character Bowser Jr. And has already shown one of the other "koopa kids" from the fucking Mario franchise.
That's one of the most frustrating things, it's not a character the artist made, it's a video game character the artist headcannoned into a massively gay horn dog.

Yeah, I'm with you there. I guess I might be able to stomach the absolutely atrocious, plotless, conflict-less writing if the characters weren't so fucking ridiculous as to be unappealing. SpelunkerSal isn't a *bad* artist, but his hyperrealistic, hyperdetailed art style does *NOT* work at all with the cartoony pokemon, digimon, and Mario characters. Everyone just looks so fucking stupid and weird, and it exacerbates the other problems with the comic (such as that the characters have no actual character development, that there is no conflict and thus no plot, and that there are almost never any backgrounds or significant environmental details, making the comic seem like it's taking place in some sort of creepy abstract/realist mashup void.

At least this thread's comic has backgrounds? But the art in general is quite a bit shittier, and it emphasizes everything that's unappealing about the character designs.

This one is drawn by Captain Nikko, who at times makes some really nice art, but at other times makes this weird fluxuating style of shifting overexagerated anatomy. In particular, the characters jaws keep changing in size, going from reasonable to "is that a brick?" And don't even get me started on those fucking grotesque"horns".

I'm a bit conflicted about the plot in terms of roommates comic. Despite the lack of "conflict" I find it refreshing when characters have a healthy dialogue and talk with one another somewhat realistically. Sure it might be boring, but I rather be slightly bored than having to face palm when an artist tries to be over dramatic with their story (looking at you Jay Naylor).

Oh sure, a stupid, unconvincing tryhard plot is just a million levels of terrible, but the problem with Roommates isn't that it depicts a relatively healthy relationship in which conflicts are resolved quickly and to the satisfaction of all reasonable parties involved. It's that that kind of thing makes it EXTREMELY HARD for readers to be invested in the characters or care about what happens to them.

The conflicts are incredibly low-stakes, and we know for a fact that they get resolved in an even-lower-stakes manner with basically no residual issues. Cool. Good on them. But why should I care about them then? The boredom you describe is just the problem with telling a story. It's one thing if you're doing one-off comics (even with recurring characters and general plotlines) because those are designed around extremely short/minor conflicts and meant to deliver punchlines.

Roommates is not that comic. It's a long-form story arc with multiple subplots... but I can't tell what the overall arc is supposed to be or even what some of the subplots are and why they're happening. If we're not *meant* to care about the characters (i.e. if it's just supposed to be sexy/hot/a fap rag), then why is *so much time and space* invested in their conversations, scene-setting, establishing relationships, and literally everything other than them fucking? Hell, even the porn itself is riddled with attempts at character development and the establishment of character relationships and tension.

But it doesn't do a good job of that because the characters have no significant flaws, no significant problems, and no clear sense of being anything other than stand-ins for the author and artists' attractions to specific copyrighted characters.

And that's really the heart of it. If it were just about the sex, they wouldn't bother with all the dialogue and extensive scene-setting. Ditto it being about a healthy relationship: lots of porn comics establish that the people involved have a healthy relationship simply by showing them enjoying sex and not having significant problems or conflicts in the process. It's clearly supposed to be about *more* than just the sex, but the characters are so uncompelling and nondescript except physically; they're *extremely* detailed in that regard, but being overloaded with physical detail does not make a character interesting *as part of a story*. They're just very hard to care about as anything other than sex objects (and even then, I don't care because they're not attractive to me at all, though that's just a personal preference issue), but the comic spends all this time and effort trying to make you care and just failing miserably. Their problems are boring either because they're incredibly minor and resolved *instantly* via a nice conversation *or* because they're opaque and distant. If you resolve a conflict too easily, it feels inconsequential, and thus it is boring. If the nature of a conflict is so obscured and convoluted that the reader can't figure out why it's there or where it might be going, it is boring.

If your characters' conflicts are boring, then your *characters themselves* are boring because their laundry list of physical traits, personality traits, interests, hobbies, fears, desires, and familial and social relations don't actually amount to anything. Why should I care if Gian's nervous about doing sexual stuff if he never has any problems doing sexual stuff and everyone enjoys doing sexual stuff with him? Why should I care if he's getting harassed by other characters for being gay if someone immediately steps in to defuse the situation and there's no indication that 1) anyone was significantly hurt or affected by it and 2) it will ever happen again? Why should I care if Gian and Jr. are each individually worried about having other people as part of their sexual experiences if they *instantly* decide that it's okay, everyone enjoys themselves, and there are no residual problems? Why should I care that this charmeleon guy *appears* to be upset that Gian won't leave Junior for him (and/or that Junior wouldn't let him fuck Gian in the ass) when there's no indication that their relationship is in any danger of falling apart, that Gian is interested in that arrangement whatsoever, or that the charmeleon guy is in need of any sort of romantic and sexual companionship?

They're just completely and totally uncompelling characters, and if they wanted to just have a comic that was about healthy relationships and satisfying sex with no significant conflicts whatsoever, they should have made it *extremely* episodic and condensed the non-sex parts to just serve as quick bookends to the sex.

(And just an addendum because I forgot to include this in >>1304533)

This charmeleon and tumor-headed blue turtle pokemon porn comic works *better* in terms of scope and pacing than the main Roommates comic because it knows what it is: it's a porn comic that exists to be arousing to readers. The lead-up to their sex is entirely functional in that regard: everyone's conveniently gay and turned on by what's going on, what could be problems are resolved with one-liners and/or sexual acts, and so on. There are two major problems with this comic here though:

1. I think it's fucking ugly and unsexy. HOWEVER, this is a personal taste issue, so it's not *really* a problem unless we want to get into the actual quality and skillfulness of the layout and art, which I don't.

2. It's actually NOT "just a porn comic" because it's supposed to tie into the main Roommates comic and give us some insight into the charmeleon guy. It *doesn't* do that except to show us that he apparently has absolutely *NO TROUBLE* having lots and lots and lots of very satisfying sex with guys he considers attractive and who are also affectionate and a bit romantic with him.

All that that does is make his apparent character conflict in the main Roommates comic seem *even more nonsensical and ridiculous*, which makes us even *less invested* in him as a character.

I really do see your point about cringeworthy, face-palmingly bad plots as opposed to "nice" plots (i.e. the kind of conflict-free, low-stakes stuff that's going on in Roommates and which could hardly be called a plot in the first place), but it's not like we have to pick one over the other: they're both bad for very, very different reasons, and the solution is to pick *neither* of them.

You basically pointed out most of the reasons why I find this to be a terribly written comic. There are still more, though, such as the way it falls into the classic "bad furry comic" cliches, such as there being absolutely no women in there at all, just men who are all gay, all of them without exception. The only woman we've seen or heard about has been a passing glance in a family picture. If it's supposed to be a slice of life comic, it fails at portraying a realistic setting where people of any and every gender exist, instead going that bad cliche of making all characters male and all characters gay. Main characters, secondary characters, side characters, even random characters who appear on just one panel are all gay, and in another tired cliche, the homophobic bully ends up as gay too, or as straight-gone-gay after just one single gay sexual experience. All these things and the ones you mentioned as well just keep piling on and on and it's just a festival of cringe.

And unfortunately, the art has not been doing any favors for the comic. It used to be the comic's only saving grace, but overtime it's declined a bit, namely that for some weird reason and for some time now, Sal's been suffering heavily from OPS, or "One Piece Syndrome". Making his characters be all copyrighted characters is plenty to take me out of the story even before reading how bad it is, but for some time now Sal's been drawing characters with freakishly ginormous mouths, they're just so huge that it seems like they could eat an entire bag full of groceries by simple opening their mouths and shoving them down their gullets without needing to chew, and it's just weird and off-putting. And now this side comic has Nikko drawing it, and he has his own set of bad artistic issues. But as you said, art's sometimes more of a personal preference, an eye of the beholder thing, but still...

Yeah, like, for all of the myriad issues that Associated Student Bodies had (and *boy howdy* were there lots of issues with that comic), there were in fact *female characters* and *straight characters*. Granted, everyone was kind of sexually flexible at one point or another because it was a giant wankfest first and foremost, but even in a comic that is about a dorm on campus that is literally populated almost entirely by gay men who fuck each other senseless all the time there were *female characters and straight characters*.

This comic, which is supposed to be a lot more relationship-driven and less of an overt, single-minded smut rag, is in fact *less* grounded in realism as far as the social situations are concerned.

And yeah, I'm with you on the art, but I wanted to critique the comic on things that couldn't simply be chalked up to taste.

And yeah, I get it, these are *gay porn comics* so of course the focus is going to be on gay dudes who have sex. I'm cool with that. I like that. That's almost entirely what I look at furry art for.

But if you're going to tell a compelling story, either keep your cast *very small* or commit to having characters with depth, nuance, and who are reasonably distinct from one another. Either way, background characters exist to provide the illusion of the grounding of reality: they are there to make the story feel like it's happening in a real world populated by real people rather than in some sort of weird social vacuum. As it stands, this comic feels like the only people who exist *in the entire world* are openly gay guys (most of whom are related to each other) and closeted gay guys who have secret crushes on the openly gay guys. That might as well be a disconnected social vacuum, which makes the relationship drama *all the more uninteresting and low-stakes*.

After reading the comments here, I find everyone's points to be insightful and fascinating. I am currently writing non-fiction gay works for fun but want to avoid the common pitfalls that come with a story that centers around gay romance.

Even though I'm just a simple observer in this whole discussion and the critiques aren't directed at me, I still find all of this very useful to incorporate into my story. Thanks for the discussions everyone! Now I know what to avoid and what to strive for!

Okay, so, it's been over 8 years since Sal started this comic. And between the main comic and side ones, including this one, there has been absolutely zero development in the story, it really has gone basically nowhere, and the only character in that whole thing that has shown even a shred of character development is the bully's lion sidekick by giving himself a much needed haircut and offering apologies to one of the main character. The lion can barely even qualify to be called a secondary character, but he's gotten more development than any of the main characters have since the comic began 8 years ago.

Honestly, take all that into account. That is just sad. Or pathetic. Or both.

Out of all the roommates comics the only one that came close to being deep was the 1 comic spin off about the lucario that comic actually made me feel something

Pretty much ALL of the character development is in the spin-offs and background stories. And honestly, there are only three chapters in the main comic and they each focus on events that occur in a single day, so even though it's taken years, not much development CAN happen. 1 had them get together, 2 had them decide in the end to be open about their relationship, and 3 is apparently revealing that Gian's family is in the fucking mafia and Santino, who's probably murdered people given this revelation, is getting up on his high horse and acting all judgemental on Gian and Jr.'s sex life and is unreasonably expecting Jr. to protect Gian 24/7.

I wonder if this will end in a war between the Koopas and the mafia.
