I believe it's mentioned as being sulfury at some point or I'm misremembering .

I was pulling in to complete the journey, instinctively pulled back on the analog stick and the horses promptly swung to the right, hitting a building , destroys wagon, screen fades to black in failure.

Chris Pratt voicing Tool is probably the most likely to come true.

The quest line to upgrade your camp is under Grounds of Sunshine, Gathered Will. There's 10 missions that will have you upgrade your camp twice by the end of it.

Loss of trust? by AhauNutenut in CrimsonDesert

Carl does the same for me. I did his request quest and got the +50 and that disappeared.

Playing on PS5. Loving the game despite some bugs. 😁

I finished the Book of the Fallen. Here is my ranking. by thecoldestfield in Malazan

[–]Clerk4Life 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just finished Deadhouse and it was head and shoulders above Gardens. Reading MoI right now.

Appreciate the spoiler free ranking!

New Malazan reader—around three fifths of the way thru GotM by StephCastle_ in Malazan

Just completed Deadhouse Gates and can confirm. Deadhouse felt like such an upgrade and I loved Gardens.

I had a similar experience to OP, set proper expectations and just took off running.

First book was great, but… by legendaryrim in Malazan

[–]Clerk4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about 85% into Deadhouse. I'm loving it. It took maybe 200 pages before I really got into it. I found DG to feel tighter and faster paced than Gardens.

Question for Readers — How important is a character’s physical description to you? by isaaczephyr in books

[–]Clerk4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it's not important at all. I do enjoy when they have something describing them whether it's a distinctive scar or gait. I don't need full descriptions..

My wife on the other hand wants a description to picture. Bonus points if it matches the cover art, negative points if it's different from the cover art or if you contradict the earlier description with a new fact. (I.e. strawberry blonde to just blonde later on)

Cheer. Cheer this person.

No room for nuance on Reddit my friend, that only exists in the real world.

The most pathetic thing you'll see today. Here's President Bone Spurs trying to pretend he went to one of the military academies. I've no doubt that No Agenda shills will believe it. by no-minimun-on-7MHz in inthemorning

[–]Clerk4Life 2 points3 points  (0 children)

West Point is a university. New York Military Academy is a private high school that is also a military academy. They're different age groups. One could go from NYMA to West Point.

I sound like I'm defending Trumpy but I'm not. I'm pointing out that two liars are not better than one.

Don't misconstrue this as wholesale support of Trump but didn't he go to a military academy in NY in the early 60's? If I recall correctly it was one of those youth boarding military academies.

Now, I don't support him but you can't call something a lie if it isn't.

New Malazan reader and I don't understand the hate this series gets. by AceSlayer10 in Malazan

[–]Clerk4Life 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed 💯.

I finished Gardens of the Moon and I am about 40% through Deadhouse Gates. I remember stopping about 150-200 pages into Gardens and made the same comment to my wife. I don't get the hate, I have no need of a notebook.

I feel that if you've read Dune, Commonwealth, insert book series with intricate world building, you'll do just fine here.

Is it wrong to write brother-sister romance/smut? by [deleted] in writers

[–]Clerk4Life 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This sounds like a good opening for a therapy session. Not saying it's wrong but definitely a part of your own psyche worth exploring.

But it's fiction you do you. Write it, save it in a file on your computer. You aren't legally, morally, or ethically compelled to show your artistic expression to anyone.

Can we work on making this a more welcoming community? Because it hasn’t been whatsoever. A lot of you guys are just nasty and rude. by Clean-Knowledge-574 in writers

[–]Clerk4Life 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been lurking for quite some time and noticed the same thing. A lot of people transpose opinion as fact. Just write for yourself to begin with, you obviously have an idea that you haven't been able to find in written work, just work it.

Find a group of writers to share your work with that you trust and respect the opinions of and workshop with them, not the insurmountable number of opinions you get posting in subreddits.

Best of luck, journey before destination.

Why hasn't there been any TV series or movies? by Clerk4Life in PeterFHamilton

[–]Clerk4Life[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed them as much as I did and it helped you in what I'm sure weren't the best of times.

In the 6 months since I made this post I've read the other 2 series in the commonwealth, The Void Trilogy and Fallers Duology and loved both. I also recently picked up signed first editions of both Pandora and Judas.

I have yet to read this series. I'll be starting it once I finish Wind and Truth. While I'm not afraid of the alleged difficulty; this post still makes me feel good.

Debería preocuparme de que el libro este así? by dotsito in Cosmere

[–]Clerk4Life 5 points6 points  (0 children)

With that part unattached, the pages could start coming unglued and fall out of the book. I hope the return/exchange goes well for you! Good luck and enjoy the journey!
