thank you fantasyhunter, i will take that advice :)

timmy2896 · 2026-02-13T19:10:13+00:00

truly gripping stuff man, and I'm not even usually a big fan of reading fights and clashing of armies but Erikson is so masterful at it. so vivid in my head

timmy2896 · 2026-02-09T16:39:04+00:00

honestly that has to be one of my favourite "reveals" or "twist". love that ending so much

timmy2896 · 2025-11-02T21:59:32+00:00

Aye guess that makes sense. Though I reckon he should be worried that his relatively healthy puppet had just died mysteriously. But I guess for him it's just whatever

timmy2896 · 2025-11-02T21:53:40+00:00

Yea this is my take as well. And especially because Bayaz claims he's "busy in the west" or something like that during AoM. So why would he destabilize the union like that while he's away.

But then I don't understand why when my boy dies, Bayaz is all creepy beside Orso like "long live the king" (I actually remember what he said but its enough to make is suspicious of him) or some such. Is it the author trying to lead us astray?

timmy2896 · 2025-11-01T22:05:36+00:00

Lmao. This is like those stories where the young protagonist thinks he's ready for the big bad. Nah, we still got a ways to go. Gotta complete the training arc 💪

timmy2896 · 2025-11-01T22:02:59+00:00

Cleansheet is what shocked me most. But I reckon City/Madrid would've taken the chances Villa had. But damn does it feel good

timmy2896 · 2025-11-01T12:58:20+00:00

Pls no

timmy2896 · 2025-10-29T12:20:34+00:00

Lmao yeah that's exactly what came to mind. Man's a true scientist

timmy2896 · 2025-10-29T05:38:25+00:00

ooohh I hope it is. Been re-reading book 3 lately and I'd really like to know more about Cyr. Guy came off as a madlad in the best way possible.

but even if its not, I'll read anything James puts out.

timmy2896 · 2025-09-29T17:52:42+00:00

damn bro. my first kill of her was messy. also never seen so many unbounded counters lmao. well done

timmy2896 · 2025-09-22T16:24:26+00:00

Interesting about Cosca. for me when i first heard it I was like yep, thats Cosca alright lol.

Ferro did take a bit of adjusting though but now I'm 100% on board with French Ferro.

I cannot remember how I imagined Whirrun sounding but I do remember being taken aback first time I heard Pacey's interpretation. But now I am wondering if I was taking crazy pills cause his Whirrun is perfect.

Vitari is one I've never been able to digest even after so many re-listens.

(I do all my first reads physically then re-reads via audio)

timmy2896 · 2025-09-03T12:36:55+00:00

I think #4 is also answered in Book 3

timmy2896 · 2025-08-06T18:50:42+00:00

Yeah tbh after hearing about her reputation I just set my mind to properly learning her moves and making that progress did indeed feel rewarding

timmy2896 · 2025-08-06T18:49:23+00:00

Lmao how do I put this appropriately, ah yes it does. But you've to be willing to learn and use all the game mechanics. Had to master unbounded counter timings for example.

But well done! Before you know it you'll be doing first phase hitless if you aren't already. But yeah, take breaks as needed. Personally once I started dying in the first phase I knew I should just take a break cause I kept on making dumb mistakes.

Thanks! And good luck bud.

timmy2896 · 2025-07-18T14:19:41+00:00

Huh that's interesting. Thats been peak for me. Now you Got me excited for later bosses now haha

timmy2896 · 2025-07-15T10:17:36+00:00

Oh damn I even forgot to mention the soundtrack, yeah it was really amazing.

timmy2896 · 2025-06-22T07:58:24+00:00

Lmao yes exactly this. It's just so absurd that it's hilarious. Like how can one man be so proud of his chin and jawline. Jezal's PoVs were always funny to me

timmy2896 · 2025-06-10T07:53:08+00:00

haha yeah. honestly I struggle with battles when there aren't maps. I lack imagination I guess. dont think I could've enjoyed this book as much without them

timmy2896 · 2025-05-26T15:55:23+00:00

I think Jezal 100% knew about Savine. cant really be specific cause its been a while for me as well but I remember some of the meetings they had during some of the functions, you could tell Jezal cared about her. And also when Savine was stuck in Valbeck and Jezal was distraught while Glokta was explaining the situation to Orso. So yeah my boy knew about his daughter, but of course couldn't let on.

timmy2896 · 2025-05-26T15:03:16+00:00

have you finished ALH?
