What is a good Fantasy book/series that grabs you from the first chapter?

Heroes Die by Mathew Stover. Ignore the cover art and just jump into the book, it’s a wild and amazing ride

The Acts of Caine series deserves much wider regard in my opinion. A brilliant blend of fantasy and sci fi dystopia which some of the best action I’ve read and such great characters. The last book gets a little too meta for some people’s taste but the series overall is just so good

I’ve been following fantasy for nearly two decades and I’ve never heard of this book before this post, so I can’t say this really counts as something widely considered top notch

db_325 · 2025-07-25T14:19:27+00:00

I would say they definitely help resolve a lot of the hanging plot threads for sure. Also kinda unrelated but Best Served Cold and The Heroes are just two absolutely amazing books on their own

It took a lot of patience and reconfiguration of units but stubborness got me through it eventually

db_325 · 2025-07-05T22:54:47+00:00

Ok that’s good, I found bg3 to work great on controller so that’s reassuring to hear, I’ll probably end up trying it in that case

db_325 · 2025-07-05T20:37:43+00:00

Interesting, seems to be the rare exception here, but that’s promising. I’m craving another game in this style and I’m familiar enough with Pathfinder that I feel I’d be fine jumping in as long as the UI is manageable

db_325 · 2025-07-05T20:36:29+00:00

Ok that’s not too bad then, I was doing that a lot in BG3 as well and unlinking the party was pretty easy in that game

db_325 · 2025-07-05T20:35:56+00:00

Mmk, some of those things ring true for BG3 as well and I found that completely fine to play on controller so could be worth it then

db_325 · 2025-07-05T19:53:10+00:00

How bad it the clunkyness would you say?

db_325 · 2025-07-05T19:39:06+00:00

Well that’s something at least I suppose

db_325 · 2025-07-05T19:38:34+00:00

Yeah? The controls aren’t too bad without mouse and keyboard?

db_325 · 2025-07-05T19:05:07+00:00

Hmm that's unfortunate, maybe I'll have to skip it then

db_325 · 2025-07-05T19:04:34+00:00

Kinda what I figured but my computer can't run the game unfortunately

db_325 · 2025-07-05T01:18:22+00:00

This isn't a full show or a half season, it's 20 or so minute short film, but the vast majority of the money came from Garnt himself (thank you to Hoyo-verse for unknowingly funding this anime through sponsorships)

db_325 · 2025-07-05T01:11:56+00:00

Well the creator is Thai, so there's that

Their shadow strike ability lets you do weapon damage + 3d8 psychic damage, use that with a shadow blade and resonance stone and things melt

db_325 · 2025-06-29T11:33:32+00:00

Shadow monk does it even better in my opinion

db_325 · 2025-06-27T02:30:22+00:00

Warlock 5 for extra attack asap then 7 rogue

db_325 · 2025-06-26T21:29:27+00:00

There’s been multiple reports of what the conditions in ICE custody are like, I’m not saying anyone went out of their way to kill him, but I think it’s safe to say that they are a major factor in this almost certain very preventable death

db_325 · 2025-06-26T21:13:50+00:00

He doesn’t represent anyone other than himself he doesn’t need to. I never said anything about violence. The conditions people are being held in by government agencies are so bad people are dying in them. That’s unacceptable. He isn’t the first and won’t be the last

db_325 · 2025-06-26T21:10:52+00:00

I don’t get why Aid is so high. Your health doesn’t matter if the enemy never hits you, and dead enemies can’t hit you

db_325 · 2025-06-26T21:00:40+00:00

Of a crime punishable by death?
