Anybody who’s been following Andrew Hussie’s work for any length of time knows that the guy can’t do endings. I don’t mean that in the sense that he does them badly; I mean that in the sense that he plain doesn’t do them. He’d been involved in several long-form creative projects prior to Homestuck, and with the singular exception of Problem Sleuth, every last one of them just sort of stops without reaching any sort of resolution – and one receives the distinct impression that the only reason Problem Sleuth proved to be the exception is that it had no real plot to resolve in the first place.

It’s clear this is something he’s struggled with during the course of producing Homestuck, and I think today we’re finally getting a glimpse of the solution he’s arrived at: he doesn’t have to figure out a proper ending if it never ends.

This really hard to tell if you are saying in a negative, neutral or positive way.

Yes.
