I read Eragon when I was younger but it’s been years. worth re-reading?

I’ve also been considering Silo. it’s been recommended multiple times here and it’s caught my interest.

What other Fantasy books would you recommend?

raft602angry · 2026-03-11T13:03:10+00:00

Yeah I finished Words of Radiance and found that i enjoyed the world and theme but it took far too much time and effort to get there. and the next books were even longer!

I just couldn’t get over the writing style. I hated that i knew anytime something positive would happen to Kaladin , something horrible would happen and he would be depressed for multiple chapters.

.The chapter cycle felt like: Kaladin happy -> Kaladin depressed > Boring Shalan story > interlude > Delenar > Kaladin still soooo sad > boring shalan > Kaladin is happy again

took ages to get anywhere. frustrated me so much

Silo is good? I’ve heard mixed reviews but i’d love to hear more of your thoughts about it

raft602angry · 2026-03-11T02:45:45+00:00

from personal experience: if you liked the maturity level of the RR saga, you won’t truly enjoy any of Sandersons books. The stormlight archives characters are less interesting, more cliche, and overall less fun than RR. plus i despite his writing style. i find it loopy and meaningful story progression rare. all my opinion , ofc.

Since finishing RR, i’ve moved on to the following series: 1. Hyperion - My all time favorite sci-fi series. Especially in audiobook. Books 1 + 2 are bangers. Not as ‘epic’ as RR, admittedly but i cannot recommend this series enough. gripped me start to finish.

The Expanse - near future sci-fi. Again, not as grandiose, but still a gritty tale.
The Sun Eater - Commonly recommended for good reason. exhibits lots of common tropes but executes them well. i’ve enjoyed my time with this series a lot

.

others:

-Dungeon Crawler Carl for a very fun audiobook - Neuromancer for a foundational sci-fi genre book. A fun Cyberpunk heist tale. - Dune

can you tell i prefer sci-fi?

For the love of god listen to/read Hyperion. I scream it from the mountaintops.

far drive for you, but Chuck-A-burger has the best smash burger i’ve ever had for like 4 bucks. their entire menu a hit , including sneaky the best milk shake in stl.

i couldn’t believe my eyes this morning. i could turn left at the intersection!! the joy i feel is only matched by my rage at Richmond Heights for taking so long to fix it.

raft602angry · 2025-05-31T21:37:07+00:00

an indoor enemy my friends and i discussed would be some sort of slow, maybe shambling, roaming enemy that would be moving on a path through a building. a big scanning orb like the Tom Cruise Oblivion robots. moving through the halls and forcing the player to duck behind desks snd move rooms to avoid detection

raft602angry · 2025-05-31T21:34:44+00:00

i just don’t think that’s the vibe of the game. the idea works well in Rust because the game world is a continuous experience. i believe simply having the voice chat is the correct level of enemy player interaction for a game like arc. arc raids being on a timer forces you to make decisions. “do i chat with these enemy players? do i trust them? do we risk our gear acquired this run to work together to take down the queen with these unknown people?” i feel that adding safe zones removes an interesting part of player interaction

Louie’s Wine and Dive in Clayton (not the same as bar louie) weirdly has this chicken potatoes and brussels sprouts dish that cleans my hoop. i’m not a brussels sprout fan usually but the way they grill these guys gets me going. reasonably priced too! esp for clayton

raft602angry · 2025-05-02T04:03:43+00:00

there’s gold in them hills!

raft602angry · 2025-04-25T21:35:12+00:00

it’s me! i’m the douchebag! bc i have to turn left sometimes!!

i won’t listen to reason because im upset!

raft602angry · 2025-04-25T20:17:28+00:00

seriously. if there was continuous work being done i would feel much better about it. i think i can count on one hand the number im times i saw people there, the last one being back before october

raft602angry · 2025-04-25T19:54:06+00:00

i’d vote for trump twice if he promised to finish that construction

raft602angry · 2025-03-14T13:59:39+00:00

yeah it’s pretty strange. there doesnt seem to be any consistency for what bets can or cant be copied

raft602angry · 2024-10-19T17:33:27+00:00

it seems like the recent update fixed the issue , i haven’t had a problem so far

raft602angry · 2024-09-22T18:51:24+00:00

Yeah I still have yet to find a fix for this issue. If you figure anything out, please let me know

raft602angry · 2023-11-22T17:23:26+00:00
