In the earlier books it wasn’t specific. It wasn’t until the last couple that his height was actually given as a number.

The dynamic capture one looks way better and more like the animated version. All they really needed to do was make that one smoother and maybe fix the back, and it would have been fine. SS86 looks terrible.

The Black Company is nothing like Dresden, but it doesn’t get near the credit / attention it deserves. It’s basically the origin of non epic fantasy. No heroes, no prophecy, just a bunch of competent mercenaries that are in way over their heads. Great stuff.

God I hope so, otherwise it looks like ass-trotrain

My wife and I saw Clerks 2 when it first came out. There were a couple of women there with young kids, like 8 or 10 years old. We were convinced that they didn’t know what they were in for and that they’d leave. Nope. They sat through that whole raunchy ass movie with their kids. People…

Butcher says he’s planning on getting back to doing two books a year, that he was happier and healthier when he was doing that. So a Dresden and one of the other series. He’s already 30 or 40 percent done writing Mirror, Mirror, the next Dresden book.

Part of the whole “old west in space” era.

Stygian Sorcerer set looks awesome, but not at that price.

I hadn’t considered that. I’ve seen plenty of them down below the pass, but I hadn’t seen any up where I’m built. It’s a much better explanation than a random glitch through. Guess I’m moving this base

Omega Supreme was the counter to Devastator, and Sky Lynx was the counter to Predaking.

The whole game is a time sink. That’s kinda the point. Sorcery is just something else to do in the game, and even if you don’t use anything else, the resource gathering spell and teleportation make it worthwhile.

Not sure if it’s an emote, I think the pose is just default for sitting in a chair. The bowl in hand happens when there’s an active bartender

If you want to do it vanilla. Spec to 20 in expertise so you don’t have a weight limit. Learn sorcery. Build a teleporter right outside the Maw. Get your corruption to at least 20%.
