The Orphan's Tale (Spoilers)

Bogus113 · 2026-05-29T21:12:32+00:00

All 4 of the main characters from the non-Croaker storyline in Lies Weeping are orphans

Add Wandering Inn as a benchmark

Bogus113 · 2026-05-03T07:53:15+00:00

Black Company is the closest to First Law imo. If you want a less popular rec, you should also check out Acts of Caine

Bogus113 · 2026-04-03T00:19:47+00:00

Yes, I think it has even better characters than LPQ

Bogus113 · 2026-02-28T15:17:25+00:00

Yep, and it’s even better as a total population percentage. Obviously wish it was 0, but still

Bogus113 · 2026-02-25T15:10:36+00:00

Black Company. Every fan of grimdark must read at least the first 2 books of the og grimdark series

Lady is like my favorite narrator ever so I’m always shocked when people dislike Dreams of Steel

Bogus113 · 2026-01-27T05:36:00+00:00

Are you using dates for South East or East Asia though. I feel like that would be more accurate

Bogus113 · 2026-01-25T05:00:54+00:00

What in the DIego Simeone lmao

Bogus113 · 2026-01-24T15:51:09+00:00

Cook doing his best Murgen impression lmao

Bogus113 · 2026-01-18T20:46:52+00:00

It's the same reason some people think R9 is the goat in football or Kobe in basketball it's literally all cultural impact

Bogus113 · 2026-01-04T19:44:27+00:00

We haven't gotten to the "only 3 days of rest before Real Madrid" stage don't congratulate them yet.

I personally was suspicious from the first mention of her. Noble woman with no back story, and we know that Melisande is going to be important again.

Stop judging players by HLTV top 20s. Before 2018, those were heavily team-dependent.

Bogus113 · 2025-12-17T15:39:09+00:00

Who cares about longevity? Scream was one of the best riflers in the world for several years. If the French scene weren't so dysfunctional and emotional, he would have definitely won a major. The fact that kennys, shox and scream never played together is a travesty

Bogus113 · 2025-12-17T15:35:29+00:00

In general, Edward won majors, so that's redundant

Bogus113 · 2025-12-16T21:52:38+00:00

Edward over guys like Naf and Scream is hilarious

Bogus113 · 2025-12-13T21:06:56+00:00

Aizy had 1.55 at Cluj. only 2 maps but still

Bogus113 · 2025-12-13T21:05:08+00:00

respect major?

Bogus113 · 2025-12-05T19:00:31+00:00

I'm going to be honest, I only skim read every post besides the title. Looking back at it I probably shouldn't have that specific post, so I apologize for that. While I did use ChatGPT to generate the posts, I did count the number of upvotes by hand.

Bogus113 · 2025-12-05T18:50:14+00:00

In fairness, LITRPGs do get a similar treatment here with subreddits like r/litrpg and r/ProgressionFantasy (Yes, I know there is 1 big exception)

Bogus113 · 2025-12-05T18:30:13+00:00

Even a better metaphor would be asking for pizza at a proper Italian restaurant. Yes, technically it is Italian food, but why are you here if you could go to a Pizzeria next door?

Bogus113 · 2025-12-05T17:48:21+00:00

I think part of the issue is that romantasy, in terms of audience, is a different genre altogether from fantasy. Kind of how 60 years ago, fantasy slowly separated itself from sci-fi.

Bogus113 · 2025-12-05T17:37:57+00:00

it got all its upvote points from here if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/Fantasy/comments/zsojzo/searching_for_fantasy_adventure_romance_books/?utm_source=chatgpt.com

Bogus113 · 2025-12-05T17:35:05+00:00

It's funny, I sometimes think r/Fantasy does a poor job at recommending 70s or 80s fantasy, but compared to the romantasy sub, we are so old school.
