Was the ending satisfying, or ambiguous to the point of frustration?

Yes.

Ambiguous to the point of being tiresome, for me.
I'm not angry or upset, I'm just exhausted.

It felt like there was meant to be another round of conversations to finalize all the characters and give us some closure on them, but Hussie was too burnt out to do them and the 4/13 deadline hit. Considering he let paperseverywhere draw whatever she wanted for the reunion scenes, I think he just shoved it out the door.

paperseverywhere had specific instructions, but only what was needed to hit story points. Hussie has always been discrete in giving the art team instructions, and he would throw it back if it didn't fit.
I'm with you about the conversations: the pesterlogs and narratives have always been the meat of this story, and it seemed weird that Dave & Dirk was the last time someone said anything.
>>
>>81885209
It wasn't either.

It was just a rushed wrap-up that killed all the villains in short order and ended several character arcs via deus ex machina-ing them the thing they wanted.

It's very clear that Hussie is sick of Homestuck and wants it to end.
>>
>>81885395
If you look at her blog, she literally said that the reunion scenes were left up to her by Hussie. So the ones with Kanaya, Rose, Karkat and Dave, the one with John and Jade and the ones with Dirk and Rose waving to each other. It just goes to show that finalizing the characters wasn't his priority as much as ending the comic was.

I think he pays for some of them, but not others. The ministrife sprites specifically were comissioned, from memory, as were the Calliope sections from whozits.

So what I get is that Lord English was likely knocked into the black hole which was expanding rapidly into the broken area and which would go with the whole billiards motif, but Hussie was being too meta with the Homestuck juju for it to be shown on-screen which was probably a bad idea in retrospect. And the "Happy End" is more like a happy middle because they have to go fight Cal at some point and get sucked in the juju and we're left with our imagination for what happens to them after that.

Eh. It's an ending.

The biggest crime was that it totally removed Evil Jade and Evil Jane, who were the best versions of those hopeless characters. There's also just some unfortunate voids left in certain characters' progression, like Jake NEVER having a real powershow moment in the final timeline - proving to everyone the uselessness of he and his title.

Absolutely not.
Had there just been a good resolution with Lord English ON FUCKING CAMERA I would have easily accepted it. I wouldn't necessarily consider it the best thing ever, but I could sit back and resolve myself that the rest of the unfinished business wasn't 'that' important in the end.
As it is, my blue balls are turning black.

Davesprite got to leech off Nepeta's contentment with her life?
Then after the gloom of depression was shrugged off, Dave's easily-excited inner spirit got all riled up, but his normally ironic exterior was supplanted itself by Nepeta's lack of self-control, I suppose.

>>81886618
Because Hussie deleted Nepetas personality so the only thing left was davesprite who wasnt happy being Dave. Now he is wearing Nepetas empty husk and can pretend to be happy and someone else

>>81886691
Jasprose being manic and excitable was explained by Jaspers being a cat (animals have no social filters) that loved Rose, so that being became a thing that loved itself too much. Plus cats are narcissistic by nature and Rose is full of herself too.

And it seems that he wrote Davepeta the same way he did with Jasprose but without justifying why, and it just feels weird.

>>81886714
But Davepeta said that Nepeta has never been happier than she is now as Davepeta.

I find it nice that Toby, who was pretty involved in the HS fandom, usurped Hussie's popularity with a product wholly praised as better than Homestuck without the 7 years of strife and pain Hussie endured birthing his webcomic.

So... In the end Vriska was right. Pages are jokes and they will amount to basically nothing in the end.

From what I've understood The Odd Gentlemen pretty much threw Hiveswap and Hussie under the bus and used all of the money for a different game while telling Hussie everything's ok, showing him one plain walking animation. So it's perfectly understandable.

DaveTavrosprite would have been GOAT, let's face it. Just imagine how choke-full of sexual innuendos his dialogue would have been.
It would have likely made Tavrosprite happy too, and that's a big plus.

Arguably Davepeta was meant to cash on the "Caliborn dislikes emerald and green together" combo but that went nowhere, much like him fighting LE.

>>81886867
Rose's stubborn refusal to follow her quests was really critical to the story back in acts 2-5.
Then it was dropped too. She blew up when the Green Sun was created and proceeded to just stand there and do nothing for the rest of the story, except get laid, become an alcoholic, magically stop being an alcoholic, and solve her mommy issues.
What's worse is, compared to what other cast members accomplished, Rose got extremely lucky...
>>
>>81887037
Things like that really makes me wonder how people like Rose. She had a great personality and all but then Cascade happened and she spent the rest of the comics being a lesbian. That's it.
>>
>>81886851
The hope field was the only thing that could slow down Caliborn, so technically he was more powerful than the others who couldn't even scratch him until afterwards. He just never gets a chance to show it off in the regular comic because Hussie didn't know what to do with half the cast

It takes a lot of effort to do it, and I think she can only conjure items that don't otherwise exist -- "out of void". I'm guessing the intended use was to bring back quest-necessary objects that players destroyed or discarded by accident, like an inventory version of the TIme player's savegames. Her mucking about with perfectly generic objects was a sicknasty exploit of the game.

More like too much was unnecessarily injected/changed into the comic from the original idea and the ending was left practically unchanged, leading to a wholly dissatisfying and incomplete rushed feeling to it all, removing any chance of pay off to the crappier last portion of the whole thing we just suffered through because the other 80% was so good..

It doesn't because nothing points out that the peachy references her color skin so it's just a weird fruit joke outta nowhere unless you know the context.
Caucasian makes sense by itself because it explicitly points out how her skin color has changed, you can clearly see her standing next to Jake. It was a good joke whether you know the fandom or not.

Vriska and Meenah are entertaining, but at the end of the day are fucking VILLAINS.

(Vriska) developed for about as much as you can as a ghost and became a much better person than the other two.

You're pretty clearly supposed to side with (Vriska). The new Vriska isn't supposed to be a good thing, she's a necessary evil.

new Vriska was the one who stopped Rose from drinking
got Dave and Karkat from stop fighting and to fucking
stopped Gamzee and Terezi from hate fucking and stopped Gamzee from fucking with the Alpha Kid's sprites
made the plan to defeat Lord English

but she still never suffered for killing Tavros and creating Bec (apparently everyone forgot about that on the meteor)

and stole the entire show from everyone

she still remained the same narcissist and attention whore that she was from the beginning, this time everyone just loved her for no reason

caliborn broke his god tier clock with the crowbar showing how he got his immortality. alt universe god tier calliope comes back around to save the day by utilising the power of the green sun, acting as a deus ex machina.

the 4 kids are trapped inside the house juju that john uses to change the timeline. they are presumably released to fight lord english in the end via vriska who is also alive now.

we do not see the actual fight, but we get to see their new universe.

It is all very underwhelming

No, it's because he didn't want to do the epilogue and waited to see the fandom's reaction to see if they ate the pile of shit he just posted as an ending. If people somehow had been content with that ending he would have completely scrapped the idea of an epilogue.
When he saw all the rage he immediately posted that.

Everyone died
John retconned the timeline so that Vriska never died
All the characters on the meteor had their problems solved by Vriska
Lord English turns out to be Caliborn, half of Gamzee and the Auto Responder sucked into cal.
Dave became gay for Karkat
Davesprite and Nepeta fused into a genderfluid abomination
Jaspersprite fuses with a doomed Rose
Dave goes on a rant about toxic masculinity and his bro's abuse
Condesce died of a stab in the back
Spades Slick gets murdered
PM defeats Bec Noir
Bec Noir's wounds get treated by MS paint, so the villain gets a happy ending
Another calliope blows up the green sun
Vriska defeats Lord English, but we never actually get to see it

The end.
>>
>>81888843
It was pretty clear that still nobody likes Vriska.

pretty much. watch the last two flashes, collide and act 7, it should clear things up, as eveything from the beginning of act 6 up to the kids arriving in the alphas session is moot because of retcon shenanigans
