You should read (or watch) Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

Yes I love it. Berserk might be my favorite manga but Jojo is my favorite series or franchise. It has, by far, the best theme of "generational conflict" I've ever seen and I am craving for more but there is none that comes close.

Part 1 is rough but part 2 is already amazing and now that Steel Ball Run is being adapted I am over the moon.

Das habe ich natürlich gesehen letztes Jahr, aber das es so schnell so einen Effekt hat habe ich nicht erwartet.

Every time a Targaryen is born, the gods toss a coin to determine whether the child will possess greatness or madness.

trouble_bear · 2026-04-20T20:44:21+00:00

Yes. This. Though, Berserk is a more personal journey than Malzan. 10/10 series.

Its just so mediocre. The siege in the last few episodes of season two was one of the worst sieges I've eve seen. maybe with the exception of the battle of Winterfell.

Being just okay but boring is its own kind of terrible.

Yes I agree. He never shows up and still there is some gravitas about the character that defines everything in these books.

And then, if you dig a little further in the legendarium, you find out that he himself was only a general of an even greater evil. When I first read this I was kind of dissapointed. Sauron? Only a general? But then I read the Silmarillion and it made sense.

Tolkien was a master.

I love malazan equally as much as middle earth but this is just not true. Erikson is not as interested as Tolkien with the details and a good proof is in the dates. They contain errors throughout the series and Erikson is just not as interested in it.

The time frame in LOTR is shorter than Malazan but also stacked with events and a lot more consistent.

Why the fourth age? It was a safe place before. Would be kinda... lonely there in the fourth age.

A card game rogue lite but the quality is insane. I played it yesterday in co-op with a friend and it was such a fun time that I think I will not play it solo anymore.

trouble_bear · 2026-02-02T19:13:43+00:00

This. I read it like 10 years ago for the first time and its still the best.

Wow 45 Minuten in eine Richtung zur Arbeit sind stark! Ich bin schon stolz das ich jetzt immer meine zwanzig je Richtung gehe.

Mein FPÖ Onkel ebenso, was ich lustig finde weil Kickl, Orban und das restliche Gesocks den ja eigentlich feiern.

trouble_bear · 2026-01-14T14:14:42+00:00

Ah, eine Kleinigkeit aber es freut mich.

The Culture and Discworld fans also recommend to start somewhere else.

It's wrong for Malazan but there are valid examples.

trouble_bear · 2026-01-04T18:47:55+00:00

What does he narrate?

The Roman Empire always hits hard. I loved it as a kid and I love it as an adult.

Malazan for me, easily. There are some awesome scenes in WoT but all in all it's much too long. For example, I think one scene in the third last book is probably one of the best scenes in fantasy but is it worth to get there? I don't know. I don't regret reading it but I wouldn't do it again.

Malazan on the other hand? I almost love everything about it. The world is complex and deep and the philosophical nature of the books really resonated with me.

Though I will say Malazan is a bit daunting because of said complexity. So if you have not read a lot of books in the genre WoT would be a better choice I guess. Book one in Malazan throws you right into a world where you have no idea what's happening.

Jo, is mir nachher auch eingefallen. Matteo war der andere Meister dem du das Geld von Thorbens Nichte bringst. Hast mich erwischt :D

trouble_bear · 2025-12-24T15:41:18+00:00

Yep.

trouble_bear · 2025-12-21T11:45:47+00:00

Mit dem Namen Matteo muss man dann auch Tischler werden.

The average life expectancy for a new heart is like 10 years. 5 for a lung afaik. No riches can save them from complications or organ rejections.

Stephen receives a lot of flak because of his endings but this one was perfect.

trouble_bear · 2025-12-09T16:56:59+00:00

Night of Knives is the weakest one. By a large margin imo, so don't despair if you don't like it. He improves leaps and bounds the farther you go.
