i went into this not expecting a ton. lots of people said it was slow or meandering. i disagree so much. i loved every second of this book. it’s beautiful, haunting, mythic and a history lesson all at once. it’s full of characters that feel real and human(whether they be human or no). the first portion of the book is deliberately slow in order to build the world and introduce you to your characters.

about halfway through, the world opens up an insane amount. you get lots of political maneuvering that is really interesting because of how compelling these characters are. the way you learn the world along with simon is well done.

speaking on simon, he grew from an annoying naive child at the beginning into a brave and compassionate boy, even though he still maintained some childish traits by the end. he’s a realistic teen. but he’s a good person.

i really care for most of the characters in this book. jiriki, josua, simon and binabik are my favorites for now.

the final portion of the book with the massive lore drops, quickened pacing, and exposition make for an excellent climax. the actual antagonist and his backstory is amazing. he’s a villain i can feel for and be sympathetic. i always love that.

this was an amazing book. i love the world rich with history and culture, and the deep characters. this could end up being one of my favorite series.

i’ve always very much enjoyed this game, flaws and all. the soundtrack is so unique and lonely. the menu theme and majula are incredibly atmospheric. majula is the best hub too.

i really enjoy the combat of DS2. it feels like a natural evolution of ds1 combat. there are some small issues like the enemy encounters and bizarre design choices. i think the positives outweigh the negatives.

the game has great art design. it’s the most gothic dark souls game and i love it. drangleic castle is incredible. there are some filler locations, and maybe too many bosses that vary in quality. but the ideas of a lot of the bosses are really cool. like lost sinner for example.

i also like the lore a lot. how do you feel about ds2?

to start, i love what morrison i’ve read. all star superman, batman run, animal man(so good). but i really was intrigued by the cover art of the first volume of their JLA run. also, ive never read a JL comic ever. what do you think of this run? i love the way morrison writes batman so im excited to see how they write batman in this run.

i absolutely adore with teeth. every single song is amazing. i feel like it’s such a great more “mainstream” album that still maintains that signature NIN aggression and sound. it has some of the best NIN songs. getting smaller, the hand that feeds, the line begins to blur and oh so many more. it’s such a good album.

to me. it’s a perfect 10/10 and probably my second favorite behind TDS.

i’m headed to the carrboro show on sunday but unfortunately have to work next day. was curious how late i should expect to be out including the opener. show starts at 8. also anybody got a setlist?

i’m giving up energy drinks due to them giving me anxiety and concern for enamel wear. i just want a nice drink to look forward to in the morning without wrecking my teeth or health.

hey everyone. i figure it’ll be extremely busy most likely. but we are not getting fast passes and have 3 park days, 1 for each. is this enough time to ride mostly everything and see everything if we make use of the early entry(we are staying on property) and rope drop things?

which rides should be rope dropped at each park? and what will the wait times be like?

Hey guys. I love video games and have my entire life. I am now 21 and have a full time job, but I look forward to relaxing and playing something that will take my mind off the real world for a bit after work. It is not due to me being tired or anything after work, as I have plenty of energy for other hobbies like reading or working out.

It seems every time I play a game, I like it for a bit, then get burnt out and drop it to never return. I recently bought Crow Country on steam, and I really enjoy that so far as a huge classic Re fan. So it is going well so far. I basically want a list of amazing video games, and preferably not the basic RDR2 and god of war. I will provide some of my all time favorite games below as to help maybe.

Outer wilds

Yakuza series

Batman arkham series

Spider-man ps4

Dark souls series

Bloodborne

Resident evil series

Sonic adventure

The witcher 3

Tomb raider 2 1997

Subnautica

I am open to any kind of game, preferably on PC. I do have an xbox as well though.

i recently picked up the dragonbone chair after dropping the red rising series halfway through dark age(i know, i was close) but i didn’t enjoy the series much at all.

200 pages into dragonbone chair now and im really enjoying it. i like the slice of life vibe it has going, and the characters are pretty interesting so far. especially elias, josua and pryrates is a really intimidating and creepy villain.

simon annoys me, but what good protagonist doesn’t have their low points? i figure he will get better. i don’t dislike him as a character, but i think he’s whiny(he’s a kid so it’s understandable).

i picked up this series because i saw some people draw comparisons to realm of the elderlings, which is my favorite series ever.

for me, it’s monster(white), passionfruit, iced vanilla berry red bull, rainbow sherbet gorilla mind, grape ghost
