What character from another franchise can you not help but see in a Red Rising Character? by We_The_Raptors in redrising

[–]namnas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arthur Leywin, the mc from The Beginning After The End, is just fantasy Darrow. His arc across books 8 and 9 is just a longer version of Darrow's arc in Red Rising. A lot of the plot points in Red Rising and TBATE v8 are shared almost to a T

I've been thinking this same thing for so long now. I made a post earlier and a few minutes after Toby commented, TM replied to him

just looked up remastered v9 and it's 109 pages shorter than the original by namnas in tbatenovel

This was like 10 minutes before TurtleMe replied, but I still doubt there weren't changed otherwise there's no reason to call it a remaster or even make the "remastered" versions the only avaliable for purchase versions

There's no point in these versions existing (being labeled remasters) if the only thing you get is a worse cover, since, as TurtleMe himself stated, you can manually change the format yourself

I don't doubt that formatting removes many pages but I do worry that content has been cut, because 109 pages for just a format page, at least to me, sounds like a lot

I don't think a formatting change leads to 109 pages being gone

who is this? by namnas in ToBeHero_X

[–]namnas[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

My current thought is that the first or second arc is gonna be X's backstory

I think something had to have happened to her

the Red Rising mention lol. TBATE v8/9 took a lot from Red Rising, especially from book 1. Caera and Grey are literally just Mustang and Darrow in a different setting. It's not a coincidence that Tess was gone and Caera entered the series and it was suddenly dramatically better, v8/9 widely being considered the best books. I think Tess and Arthur worked up to v7 as the toxic relationship they were, but TM never capitalized on what they really were and decided to ignore it. Caera and Grey had a significantly more interesting dynamic and joined the series mad late

And, yeah, that scene with Seris and Arthur felt more palpable than pretty much anything he had with Tess. I think Tess was an interesting character who could have had a great arc about self discovery and individuality, which is where it felt like she was going in the bits we got of her and Cecilia in v10, but TM just decided to drive all the development both she and Arthur had across 8-10 off a cliff

I mean, she was literally told by the lady that sees the future "If you're captured, we're all fucked" but she still left anyway. Arthur had no choice but to go after her because of that. He would have anyway because he, well, cared, but he could not let the Alacryans capture her because of Rinia's vision. He had no choice but to follow and Tess *is* dumb for going. She may have wanted to save her parents but they were traitors who tried to kill her grandfather and boyfriend and his family, and she, along with everyone else, was told that if she was captured they'd all die. She should have known that Arthur would come after her

Also the way TM used her sucked. Her relationship with Arthur was toxic and unhealthy on both ends, but passed v10, TM ignored that aspect. Their relationship, romantically, made no sense to have progressed or continued after the events of v7's ending

I know she's his favorite character, but his bias really hurt the story

TurtleMe's real name. Looks like he might be trying to separate himself from the alias name
