They’ve got Seth Dickinson as part of the writing team and literally everything I’ve read of his is fantastic, including game stuff and his novels and short stories, so I’m hopeful.

That or tags or something, I’d love to be able to block sports/anime/AI “art” altogether without my blocklist being gigantic

OH DEER GOD

The video for Pump It is also amazing

Take my opinion with a slight grain of salt because it’s been at least a decade since I read the book and a half of the series that I got through, but from what I recall the books just didn’t really have much to them - flat characters, awkward dialogue, and the actual prose itself was pretty bad. It was also boring enough that I just didn’t care about anything that was happening, and I’d read enough good fantasy by the time I read Eragon that its flaws were hard to look past - I know the dude was a teenager when he wrote it, but that doesn’t make the work magically better. Not trying to shit on anybody’s parade, but it just really wasn’t my thing.

I don’t know about worse, but the Eragon books and movie are equally terrible.

Indeed actually does, although whether they actually give a shit is an entirely different thing.

Malazan Book of the Fallen, Gentlemen Bastards series, most of Neil Gaiman’s work, The Library at Mount Char, the Baru Cormorant series, Gatsby, Flowers for Algernon, and most of Plath’s work - I go back to most of those every few years.

Centaur for disease control and hemogoblin are perfect, may have to steal.

The “smart home” story in particular is oddly prescient.

“Watching porn at work, so both.”

I feel like Tahani and Eleanor are both high int low wis, just different alignments. Not sure about Tahani but I’m pretty sure Eleanor is chaotic neutral
