Ironically everyone got the conformity ending despite Dustin's speech
Everyone just looks weird and acts weird and it not adding up to who they are as characters
For example
Jonathan -> yeah he went to New York University but his mannerisms felt off kinda pretentious vibes made me wonder where's my weird guy Jonathan
Robin -> her clothes are not queer coded at all which is a weird choice because she is a lesbian also where's her girlfriend wasn't her arc about being queer and in love a big part of who she is and why they are erasing her?
Nancy -> she seemed almost normal until I found she dropped out of her university.. like the fuck? Nancy is literally the one who always chases her goals without stopping always taking challenge after challenge is giving up?
Steve -> who is a coach is a fucking school wasn't his arc about peaking in high school trying to broaden your world view and include other people and their well-being as a priority in your life and defend them also dating a lot of women to find love as some kind of end goal why the hell would he stay in Hawkins in a school the fuck???
Mike -> he is the only apparent one just the moment he wore glasses and with will's painting in the background just the moment he turned into ted wheeler with repressed feelings and thoughts hiding in his mother's basement not wanting to confront life just tell stories the fuck?
Will -> what is he even doing in a gay bar the whole scene didn't feel like will I don't know how to explain it but there's something off his choices and directions doesn't feel like him and simply because he is more than a gay character
Dustin -> why the hell after his speech would he accept Stacey's invitation didn't she reject him in season 2 doesn't she look conforming?
Max and Lucas honestly they feel kinda okay in my opinion more like a version that finds joy in their friends' games and that's it which feels lacking
Also honestly I wouldn't accept max to play D&S after everything she has gone through also why is she standing lol
The whole epilogue is nice but not good doesn't feel like his characters and is more of a nice comfortable ambiguous open ending for all but never satisfactory in other words they probably wanna milk more of the show so maybe there's already a planned spin-off somewhere here or there but the thing is it makes the whole experience lacking and it doesn't feel like art feels more as it was a missed train (opportunity) that passed that you aren't sure when you got off or when you can ride again it's lacking and boring
I wouldn't like the idea of spin-off as art is meant to experience in its moment so a missed chance feels sour ya know?
