need a demo sub from jan 15 - feb 1st

I hear so many good things about malazan, I haven't picked it up after finishing WoT because I wanted a break from these massive, complex fantasy series lmao. I hear the first book gives people trouble because it doesn't give much context, but it gets way better after that.

After I finished WoT, I finished the book of the ancestor series by Mark Lawrence, that series was super great, imagine if the world was freezing and humanity had to live on a fifty mile wide, long strip of land because the moon is focusing the suns rays or something.

Then add warrior nuns and magic. It's like a blend of a little sci-fi, grimdark fantasy, and a magic/assassin school.

After that I went through a few series and popular releases:

I liked everything a lot except for the licanius trilogy.

Children of time was really crazy. Earth is dying and humanity fucks up a terraforming project to make a planet inhabitable by bio engineering intelligent gorillas and inadvertently creates a race of intelligent spiders...

My favorite was the Book of Babel series by Josiah Bancroft. There isn't really some gimmick or quirk a lot of series depend on to hook readers or make them interesting, but it is still so different somehow. A man loses his wife during their honeymoon and goes on a journey to rescue her from this giant tower that is basically part continent (there are cities and "countries" controlling different sections of the tower, Bancroft calls them "ringdoms"), part world wonder, and part tourist destination.

The author actually doesn't waste words, I was constantly engaged. I can't think of another series that can change in tone and setting so quickly and flawlessly. The range of emotions and really, the depth and amount of possibilities in the world he built made the books kinda mind blowing .

I've tried vr a couple times and it was honestly super fun. It was actually way more immersive then I thought it would be. It was a vive and it didn't feel like I was just wearing a helmet with a screen in front of my face, actually kind of felt like I was in the game, no lag or delay, controls felt natural(prob depends on the game), visuals were fucking awesome, etc.

Not saying this half life game will be good but VR definitely has potential imo.

NVM end thread

Hey my bad bumping a dead thread but I remember somebody mentioned WoT in this thread. I started reading wheel of time in December and I just finished a memory of light, the last book.

Holy shit this series was great. Before reading WoT I had stormlight, kingkiller, and first law as my top 3 but wheel of time was better than all of them. The battles in the last two books were insane. 12 books of setup/development led to the most ridiculous shit. Ending was amazing.

Robert Jordan died before the series was finished. Four years later they got Brandon Sanderson, who at the time was pretty much a nobody, to finish the series. I'm shocked by how good of a job he did. You could tell the style/prose was slightly different but every character, characters who had been developed across millions of words, felt just as genuine as when Robert Jordan was writing.

The series isn't going to be for everyone, Jordan's writing can be overly descriptive sometimes. A few of the books called "the slog" (https://i.redd.it/ihqfile627g11.jpg) are said to be extra difficult to get through. I loved it though. I think Amazon picked up the series recently due to the GoT fantasy tv show craze and are gonna start filming soon.

Was a great read hope you're enjoying/enjoyed it glop :>

one of my favorite players I've been on a team with/met since returning to tf2. has put a lot of time into dm, movement, and gamesense and it really shows.
unfortunate his team died because nygma doesn't miss scrims/map talks and is really dedicated
great pick up
