Comic #965: Home Sweet Home (Patreon)

I knew I wanted to make a comic about player housing. I made a whole list of potential ideas, but this was the first one that came to me. I like the idea that many of us (myself included) have no problem sinking dozens of hours into a pretend world and meanwhile some of those same aspects of our actual world are a disaster.

I considered choosing some other characters for this particular comic, especially the final panel. At one point I had thought about using Douche and showing some awful pigsty at the end, but I decided to just stick with tradition and show myself at my computer and make myself look like a giant slob.

For the final panel I decided to keep basically the same pose from #796. It was basically the same artwork just with trash piled everywhere. There's something about the Gollum-like pose that feels really authentic.
