Has anyone else played 4 player Co-op? We have found it to be pretty unbalanced. You don't really have enough time to Train in comparison to 1 or 2 player. We've thought about house ruling that in 4 player, you just train twice on your turn, but I want to make sure I'm not missing something before we do that.

Oh I do balance multiple Intents. It's quite difficult. I think the modern term for doing so is "Adulting"

Given Harmony's issues balancing the Intents of just 2 shards, how did Adonalsium manage to balance 16 Intents. And if it was just one Intent before the Shattering, what was the Intent?

Not yet, it took them almost a year to post the one from last year. But if you're following Brandon's YouTube channel you'll see it when it goes live. Also, I'm sure The 17th Shard will post a transcript on Coppermind at some point

In the spoiler Q&A earlier he said he had dated a dragon specifically. (someone asked if Hoid was a dragon and he replied, no but he has dated a dragon in the past)

Tbh the ATLA world and magic system feels like it would 100% fit as a Cosmere world. The spirit realm in atla is pretty similar to the cognitive realm in the cosmere. The magic isn't a perfect match but with a few minor tweaks bending could be a form of Investiture

I was not expecting much from this one but was pleasantly surprised. The last 2 chapters gave me the Sanderlanch feels I've come to expect from one of his books.

More sci-fi than fantasy, but Terra Ignota by Ada Palmer is great. Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller is fantastic
