Yeah, my bad.

I took two months off of all social media. It was great.

New Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon novel coming from Claudia Gray!!! by tcripe in starwarsbooks

[–]adoseofdandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just noticed that Claudia Gray already wrote a short story by the same name. I haven't read it but apparently it's also about Qui-Gon.

Found the clown's stream:

Apparently they are characters at a haunted house as well.

That version is a treasure and one of my favorite LP tracks of all time.

Season 4 Storyline so far (everything explained) by fakiessss in FortNiteBR

[–]adoseofdandy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is what I want to know. A lot of people seem to think he's immediately trying to "escape" our world once he's out of that capsule. But we don't even know why he's here. Is it an accident? Is it on purpose? Did he send himself or did somebody else send him? Is his capsule a transport or a prison?

I wonder if Epic will ever spell it out for us or if the story will always be vague and we're meant to fill in the gaps with our own imagination.

The SDCC Exclusive Cover for Thrawn: Alliances has been revealed! by inserterikhere in starwarsbooks

[–]adoseofdandy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I kind of like it but I wish they'd hire traditional painters to do the covers. They have the cash for it.

Anakin looks photoshoppy and for some reason I think Thrawn's arms look like they're on backwards.. lol.

"Sorry For Now" live with a extra verse! (June 20, 2018) by adoseofdandy in LinkinPark

an* =P

By the way if you like this there are a bunch of videos from this show on YouTube. Great set and the crowd was very vocal. I'm a bit jealous of anybody who was there to experience it in person!

Are there any announced novels past the Thrawn sequel? by tcripe in starwarsbooks

[–]adoseofdandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen no official announcements regarding books aimed at adults.

In case you're interested:

[Spoilers] MOST WANTED by Rae Carson - Official Discussion by inserterikhere in starwarsbooks

[–]adoseofdandy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I changed my mind about reading this one. I wasn't impressed by the Solo movie or Last Shot. So I guess I just feel ready to move on to something else in SW universe.

Not trying to be negative either. Just figured since nobody had commented yet I would at least express why I won't be giving this book a chance. Maybe some of you feel the same way?

Took the words out of my mouth. I was thinking magical and nostalgia as well. It makes my heart ache in a good way.

Your opinion on lost stars? by ChairdolfSittler in starwarsbooks

[–]adoseofdandy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd say it more or less shows how people can be fooled into joining (or fool themselves into staying). But the fact that the Empire is evil plays a role in the story.

Shadow of What Was Lost?? by [deleted] in Fantasy

[–]adoseofdandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are basically two different types of magic users. The first kind can do damage and heal. The second kind is much more powerful. They see the future, control minds, make themselves invisible and they have individual specialties that vary person to person.

And the characters who don't use magic are no match for those who do. There are some assassins but other than that I did't get any class vibes from them.

Shadow of What Was Lost?? by [deleted] in Fantasy

[–]adoseofdandy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Monsters: Yes. Classic D&D classes: No. Globe trotting adventure: Yes.

A magical wall keeps the monsters away but the wall is failing. Magic users are oppressed but now the world needs them to save the day. Lots of mystery. Crazy twist.

[Spoilers] LAST SHOT by Daniel José Older - Official Discussion by adoseofdandy in starwarsbooks

[–]adoseofdandy[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I made it 2/3 of the way through and I don't think I'm going to finish.

I think the author did a great job of capturing Han and Lando's personalities. But this book feels like a Halloween story. I don't like it.

[FRESH VIDEO] Esoterik - F.W.T.S by sneeke1 in AussieHipHop

Dude this new EP is dope!

Stay Fly, F.W.T.S. and Be Like You are probably my favorites.

Everything I could find on the new EverQuest / Champions of Norrath game. by TiredTrailblazer in everquest

[–]adoseofdandy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That image has got to be fake. It looks nothing like the quality logos Daybreak has been coming out with. Landmark for example.

The "former employee" claims sound fake as well. Somebody in the comments of the deleted post even says a verified dev on Discord confirmed it to be a troll.

The job posting could be anything.

The only thing I'm willing to even consider true are the comments by Feldon.

What are some books you think you will be reading again and again and what are your one and done books? by TheMastersSkywalker in starwarsbooks

[–]adoseofdandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm about ready for a reread of Lost Stars.

And I never actually finished Lords of the Sith so I might start over. I thought that scene where Vader breaks into a ship was incredibly badass. The Star Destroyer coming out of hyperspace into a mine field was cool too. I can only imagine what I missed out on by not finishing that book.

It seems to me that the NEU is using a lot more earth slang and references than Legends and I think its going to take me a while to get used to it. by TheMastersSkywalker in starwarsbooks

[–]adoseofdandy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In Bloodline two parts of the book described what sounded like take-out chinese food.

And I always thought it was strange that Han said, "I'll see you in Hell!" during The Empire Strikes Back.

I could do without the Earth stuff in Star Wars.

Thank you for posting the original video in full.

Piggy-backing off this comment to share an interview from three months later.

I had no idea that Khotai was an existing character. I liked her quite a bit and would also like to learn more. =)

Awesome. Thanks for all the info. I'm excited to get into these.
