homsar!

Of the few trailers out there it seems like every major (good) character has been shown in a 3D model except my favorite and often overlooked typo, homsar.

I know it's quite difficult writing a character that speaks in nonsense into any coherent story but imagine all the things his gravity defying hat can do with a new dimension! Think of the possibilities people!

Anyway, I'm just hoping he's in the games in some form...Maybe the hint system. Maybe bad idea.

    Homsar is the "secret guy". He'll be there I'm sure and you'll probably have to get to him through some easter egg.

    If it's anything like the Halloween toons, the secret method will probably involve The Poopsmith.

    Personally I prefer Senor Cardgage's inane blabbering over Homsar's :)

    Yea, but Senor Cardgage doesn't do that all the time, remember?

    YES. Yes, Telltale, please give us our Homsar fix. He's easily my favorite character -- I'd probably watch Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man on occasion if it was a real show, just for how delightful random it is. :D

    You realise that whenever anyone says <obscure reference> HAS TO BE in the game, it's actually fairly unlikely.... There are lots and lots of little bits and pieces in H*R, and Telltale aren't gonna be able to fit 'em all in.

    I think Homsar will probably pop up more than once in the series, but they can't include everything. And I think it would be a mistake to make the game one big in-joke. That's what I disliked so much about 'Ice Station Santa' - It provided a tutorial for newcomers, but then had so many unexplained references to season 2 that it wasn't really a viable introduction to the series.

    I want SBCG4AP to avoid that mistake and be as good for newcomers as it is for existing fans. If that means no 'Whaddaya Know, Haddi-Man' level, then good!

    But Homsar isn't an obscure reference. He's one of the main characters. A minor main character, but a main character nonetheless.

    Of course he'll be in it! Who else will I hit with a baseball bat?

    :rolleyes: erm, I was clearly referring to 'whaddya know haddi-man', rather than Homsar himself, which is why I went on to say I'm sure that homsar will pop up, but not to expect that.

    Sorry, I misread what you said when you said "I think Homsar will probably pop up more than once in the series, but they can't include everything." I thought you were referring to Homsar himself/itself.

    Spoken like a gentleman. Or woman. Maybe.

    Maybe a Jengaship minigame?

    Actually, recently, I've been thinking of Homsar unwittingly becoming the main villian.
