Am I the only one who misses the old writing/humor?
(First 3 images are from older eps, last 2 are from newer ones)
Ok, first of all, this isn't hate. I am a big objectified fan and I love the comic. This is just my opinion, and something I've been thinking about. Please keep that in mind before calling me a hater or something
Compared to the older episodes, the dialogue just feels way more.. weird? Idk. The humor feels repetitive and the jokes don't really land much anymore, since half of them are just drawing characters with weird, exaggerated faces (which can be funny! it just feels overused). In older episodes, the dialogue and jokes feel more natural, which is interesting and well-done for a comic about objects with animal limbs in a zombie apocalypse.
Reading older episodes just feels refreshing, because of how natural the dialogue is and just how well-written it is. We can easily figure out the personalities of the characters, and the humor lands despite the serious plot. And that's another thing- balancing the seriousness and comedic moments feels so strange in the new episodes.
It felt jarring to go from "Mushroom breakdown sad episode" to "haha bic silly goofy episode", if that makes sense. Spitrus episodes, too, feel weird, because we just had a big serious romance moment and now it just feels like we can't take it seriously with all the weird faces and such.
And I completely understand writing styles can change. I'm a writer myself, and looking back at my old writing I find some of my humor and descriptions corny or just badly written- but it can also be waaaaaay better! I'm not trying to say that the new objectified episodes suck and only the old ones are good and I'll never read another episode again grr!11!1!!!! This is just my opinion.
I have a lot more I want to say, but I don't want to make this too long. Feel free to give me your thoughts, I just wanted to get this off my chest.
