Do You Prefer.... (POLL)

Thank you very much. :)

Best of both worlds. Thank you.

Probably the best response here. You nailed it I think. I never personally thought of it that way, but I think you are exactly right. I really do. Thank you for sharing that.

So simple and straight to the point. Love it!

Fan-service can be fun in the right instances. We don't really do it because we are heartless meanies. Calvin & Hobbes is a lovely example to bring up. They were the inspiration for some of the episodes we made with more scenery and different perspectives. Actually, one is coming up real soon.

Thank you.

Admittedly the more humorous comics are my favorite, but I also enjoy following the continuous story threads

Yea, I like the long stories told over many comics, they're cool. I like the character building that happens during that. I also like silly ponies and funny faces and, yea.

Gray

I feel like both are important in their own ways. For those who follow the comic for longer, I feel like story pays off more, but when you need to engage newer readers, then humor helps bring them in.

I click for the jokes. I stay for the story

For a moment, I thought you meant comedy or fanservice. X3 Anyway, I'd probably say 60/40 for humor and plot respectively. I guess kinda like Calvin & Hobbes. I usually enjoy the more one-off funnies, but I do like some of the lengthy stories too.

I like story arcs. That doesn't mean they can't have the occasional one-off 1-day funny thrown in as well.

I like both too. Our goal is to try and figure out the perfect balance among YOU, the reader. :D Thanks, CC.

That is helpful! You gave feedback. :)

So a 50/50.

Oooh, interesting. Thank you so much. I wasn't honestly expecting a split like that.

Thank you for that very insightful input. Nice and thoughtful. We already try to do that balance. You brought up how when a longer story arc happens, you like something more comedic after. That is a tactic we do indeed employ. :) It also makes perfect sense what you said about the difference between "the episodes you love the most" over the one's that help draw you in for the long term. You really provided great feedback. Thank you.

Agreed

Both is good for me personally

Not really gonna be able to help here because honestly, I love both

Margon

I agree, I enjoy both humor and plot (both definitions XD)

Honestly I prefer a mixture of both. I enjoy the more story-driven arcs because it gives us a chance to really dive into the characters and their personalities and relationships, and it gives us a deeper attachment to them because of it. But after a longer story-piece has come to natural pause, I enjoy seeing shorter, comedic episodes as sort of a palette cleanse, a way to just enjoy smiling at their silly antics and witty observations that make them so endearing. Oftentimes the one-off funny comics are the ones I end up loving the most just because of how accessible they are, but I wouldn’t be so heavily invested in the series as a whole if it weren’t for the longer story arcs. It’s that balance you mentioned that makes this series special. It’s not just one thing or the other, it’s a little of both, just like real life. And it’s that diversity of style that makes me love it so much.

I'd say my preference is about a 60/30 split between story/humor. Not to say that those are mutually exclusive

Naturally, I'd prefer both. That's just me. XD
