Beautiful and moving quote...and so true of the character. He doesn't want help...even when he truly needs it. Poor little guy. Always so tragic, yet still, easily one of the best written characters I've come across.

It was inevitable that Rorschach was going to get his ass handed to him. That he never did, as well as the lack of closure between Niteowl and Rorschach, is testament to how poor Alan Moore's characterization is.

Yeah, the ending always felt kind of rushed to me. I was really hoping to see some huge world panic right after Adrian's (spoiler) giant squid blew up half of New York. Everybody just went peaceful after that...
Looking at it now, I guess there never really was any closure between the two. They still seemed to have a lot of issues. Wasn't any closer with Adrian either. What the hell happened to him?

It was hinted at that he became a war profiteer. But all the characters are really caricatures. Adrian is written as a closeted yuppie evil-doer so Moore fills out the stereotype.
Fans want to say "archetype." Bullshit! Something's either well written or it's not. In the case of Watchmen you have an ambitious plot with hamfisted storytelling. And the only reason he got away with it, that it's considered a masterpiece, is because the comic medium is still looked at as juvenile literature.
How often do you see Captain America cry? What food gives Superman gas? When will they explore Spiderman's social awkwardness? Not happening. When heroes can cry and villains can long things will have changed.
