Regarding the coming denouement... - Page 2

Perhaps, but I doubt they could really contain their selfish and violent urges for too long, even with that kind of motivation. In fact, I bet they'd be dumb enough to try and kill Onion Kid before he gets too powerful.

I'm still thinkin' that there's more to this than has been revealed yet.

I still think this comic is either gonna end in an incredibly lame way (in other words: an incredibly awesome way, because it would fit) or Evangelion-style. And nobody will ever know, what the hell happened. But at least, it will have looked kinda cool.

You guys are looking too much into this :P
Brian talks in alot of his news posts about how he is happy to be getting over with 8-Bit and on to new, honestly more exciting projects (for him).
8 years, over 1000 webcomics, it's gonna get a few more episodes, but it's basically a dead-comic-walking. No picking up ten years later, no "Adventures of King Steve" (though I would love that SO much)
Haha, I can't see to much wishful thinking, though keep examining it if you want!
Just my 2 cents. :P

I'm frankly not at all wanting to see yet another story arc. The time has probably come to wrap up.

^This^

There's not much more that can be done with the 8-bit formula whilst still keeping it relatively fresh.

If I may reiterate that I was talking about a denouement, which IS essentially a wrap-up. I didn't once suggest another arc, I only wondered if there was still some stuff to learn in the denouement. A new plot point doesn't equal a new plot.

Answer me Brian, so I can sleep at night. :-P ... No seriously, give us some insight as to how the denouement will be written. /futility

I think you have to wait until he's written it and it's online.

I wonder when that'll be. I'm reminded of a quote from early Season 5 of Lost, when the island is randomly jumping through time. When physicist/Oxford graduate and Physics professor of same, was asked how long it would be before the next time jump, which is what they needed as they were in a rather inconvenient time period, Faraday's response?

"It could be five minutes, but it could also be five thousand years."

Like Brian's release schedule LAWL! :p

The above is in jest before anyone overreacts. :p

It's not so much wishful thinking as it is following what he's been saying. He said some "wrap-up" comics were coming, and thusly these and / or other issues will get closure.

Also he once pointed out the importance of White Mage saying "nothing good can come from this" that time she influenced the universe, and I don't think that's been addressed yet, so... that could be big.

All I want to say is that he better hit 1337 comics. He gets bonus points if he ENDS on 1337.
