Spoiler:
Things have progressed quickly these past few days. I honestly didn't think all this would happen so quick. I thought there'd be more left up to A7 but it looks like it might actually only be a few pages like some have been thinking.

At least there still seems to come an epilogue, so maybe some of the remaining questions are going to be answered later on. Though, it might take a while until it's finished.
Epilogue? Has Hussie said so?
Edit: one more thing. If you're curious about whether there will be anything resembling an epilogue to this ending, yes, I've been thinking about that for some time. It'll take a while to produce though, whatever specific form it ends up taking. Working on Collide took months, and came right down to the wire. I've got more time now though obviously. But that said, I'm not in a huge hurry at this point. Keep an eye out here for developments. There should be plenty of other news in coming months too.
I definitely agree with you, on all points :(I've decided that I find the current ending of Homestuck unsatisfying. Not bad necessarily, but unsatisfying and lacking meaningful substance. I get the feeling that Hussie wishes us to come to our own conclusions and to find our own significance behind the animation by leaving it so open ended, but as a result it comes across as shallow. That, and the ending Homestuck was given just doesn't feel like it justifies the scope of the entire story. Like putting ten pounds of.. marshmallows in a five pound paper bag, you know? It's a little disheartening that Homestuck was concluded in a single animation with no dialog. Unsatisfying is the word I keep coming back to. I know it's selfish, and I don't want to come across as ungrateful or unimpressed with the seven years of amazing content we've had.. but I guess I just had higher expectations? Sorry if that sounds awful. :(
That said, one can't deny that it was beautifully made and very well composed. It might be lacking the plot and literary substance I've come to expect from Homestuck, but the artistic aspect of it was incredible and spot-fucking-on.
...Still. I hope the epilogue comes through with something a little more.. finalizing. I need more closure than this, haha.
There's so many things I still want to know.
oh..I thought your avatar was Eridan as a kitten for a second.
A lot of interpretations about the ending have some come out. These two theories stand out the most, to me:
