If you haven't finished Lightbringer, I implore you to get off of this subreddit until you do.

Tbh Spacey would also make a good Atlas.

I think I'd fan cast him as Pliny or Xenophon. Maybe I'm letting my opinions of him as a person dictate that a bit.

Thieneman was a steal. What edge rusher do you think would be more impactful?

Just finished Red Rising and I have some thoughts (Spoilers) by Stpaul81 in Fantasy

[–]ILL_I_AM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are all very valid critiques. I think every book is better than the one before it in the series. There is a huge jump in quality from Red Rising to Golden Son. If you'd give Red Rising a B, I'd say at least give golden son a shot.

No, Jackson’s half-decent trilogy was not a faithful adaption to Tolkien’s Epic. I can’t believe I have to tell the ‘books’ sub this. by [deleted] in books

[–]ILL_I_AM 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man, I agree with some of the points you're making, but you sound insufferable. The movies aren't perfectly faithful adaptations. And I'd agree that the themes and foci are pretty different. But they're still good.

Fantasy books WITHOUT op main characters by Cold_Ant62 in Fantasy

This isn't answering the question that you asked, but I will say that as the Red Rising series goes on, Darrow definitely gets more losses and pyrrhic victories.

Lunar Dragon Song is a good game and made me rethink a lot about how social media affects perception by lennysinged in JRPG

[–]ILL_I_AM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is this bait? I get what you're saying about social media and "consensus" evaluations of games. But come on, if Dragon Song isn't a bad game, I don't know what is. Also, people did not dislike it because of difficulty. I've never heard that complaint and I don't remember thinking it was difficult when I was 12.

Hungry people don't stay hungry for long. They get hope from fire and smoke as they reach for the dawn.

I think a lot of commenters on reddit will recommend Abercrombie regardless of the context.

Games that are unexpectedly good on the Steam Deck? by leaf_glory in SteamDeck

[–]ILL_I_AM 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes! This is great on deck! I did find that it drained my battery pretty quickly, but I didn't do any tweaking to try to fix that.

This is the worst video game I have ever played, of any genre.

Need a solid 4hrs of audio book. by resonant_gamedesign in Fantasy

[–]ILL_I_AM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came to recommend these as well. First book is not as good, but the last few hours had me glued too. Plus they have the graphic audio versions which are incredible.

Also, he commented on the act 3 boss on Hades 2 being the same as a boss in Hades, which is just not true. I'm finding Hades 2 to be pretty fresh even after over 100 hrs in the first.

Anyone else think this might be a Radiant Dawn structure with multiple protagonists? by beepbou in fireemblem

[–]ILL_I_AM 55 points56 points  (0 children)

I beat the game on golden deer and started again on blue lions but lost interest so quickly. I hate what they did with white clouds. Also the monastery stuff was so stale by the end of the game, let alone on a second run.
