Whoa, major Barrens flashback...

Hope you enjoy the rest of it, Jorren. Started my 2.0 edit, so far, so good. Also did a Bookbub advertisement that gave away about 7k copies of the first book, should get a few hundred more fans out of that so that's awesome, though I do have to eat the occasional 1 star review from people...

Finally started playing it in the last couple weeks, taken a Jedi Knight to level 45 so far and I'm not getting the story love I hear from people. It's stilted, it's slow, it's episodic, the characters act like cardboard cutouts...you know what: it's the prequels. Every time I finish a...

FIRST DRAFT DONE. Damn, always feels good. Okay, so, 2 to 3 months of editing incoming. If you want to be included as a beta reader/typo hunter then now is the time to PM me about it. If you have any requests for getting your favorite curse words or phrases put into the novel, now is...

Let's hope it's successful and Chip N Dale and Darkwing Duck remakes follow.

Every mention helps! Have like 1 and 3/4's chapters left to write before anyone asks, still looking good for June/July.

Might want to pay the extra for the soundtrack too, it's really good.

Good for Lynch, hopefully this puts his anxiety problems behind him. Easily my most anticipated novel for the rest of the year...

Same thing, they're called Surgebinders. He just hasn't figured out the gravity manipulation skill yet.

Yeah, I continue to wish they'd just done the continuing adventures of Luke, Leia, and Han with new actors over a second or third generation thing, especially if they keep all the New Jedi Order and Legacy of the Force bullshit intact.

Yeah, they're using those Half-Shard Shields against him. As for why the Spren doesn't like it, we'll probably find out shardblades kill souls or something else Balefire-esqe.

Geez, with 1.2 star average, on 826 reviews, Amazon has pulled the download version of the game from sale.

Chocolate Rambo must be in town...

Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City, Assassin's Creed 2, Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect, Bastion

June/July 2013.

Okay, does this not sound like the same thing that's completely destroying Peter Brett at the moment? Also, I can't be the only one who just skipped the Kaladin flashbacks in WOK once I realized they were largely pointless, right?

Disney, not Pixar. Though...I'm not sure if that means it will be better or worse given the very recent history of Disney being better than Pixar.

It is odd which characters they've missed the mark on and which characters they've improved. Never thought I'd be a Brienne fan but she's a complete badass in the show.

Harry Dresden Mental Check List For Attacking Enemies 1. Can I burn it? 2. Can I hit it with a stick? 3. Can I punch it? 4. Do I have bullets in my gun? 5. Is there a vehicle nearby I can ram it with? ... 1001: Potions

Yeah, it was basically the menacing atmosphere of the first book that made it interesting and very readable despite it being another stock fantasy Hero's Journey with a farmboy. Plus, something like 15? 20? years went by in that book, that's some serious pace we haven't seen since out of Brett.

Heh, "death is coming" voiced over a shot of Robb and Cat was a nice touch.

God needs to have someone teach him how to curse correctly. Storm you, bros, storm you.

X wings came from Z-95 headhunters which came from ARC-170s (Ep3). A wings were created by General Jan Dodonna thinking that a faster fighter might have been useful during the trench run just after the Death Star was destroyed, they were based on the Delta-7 Jedi Starfigthers (Ep2) and V wings...

Barristan and the Mountain are for sure. Third is a spoiler.

Cuz...it's not science fiction...

The six movies actually have pretty clear technological progression, especially with starships. Acclamator (Ep2) -----> Venator (Ep3) -----> Victory (in between) -----> Imperial (Ep4) -----> Super (Ep5).

Personally, I'm always more concerned with party members over protagonist, be they silent or Shepard/Hawke. Anders being a huge twat and being the only real healer was a much bigger problem for DA2 than Hawke. Same with Skyrim having virtually no character I cared about...really at all...

I'm really not feeling bringing the original cast back...

Steelheart and Rithmatist, they're both YA.

Stormlight #2 = November 12th 2013. Could slip backwards but that's the expected release date according to Sanderson. If he manages it that will make 4 books on the year.

My thoughts on Daylight War...I guess I'll spoiler them:

TIE Fighter Mega Man X Mario Kart 64 Super Mario RPG Warcraft 2

By exploration elements you mean trying to get the Mako over a hill for 10 minutes?

No summary by chapter that I've found, but the wikipedia for each book gives you the general gist of the plot and characters and the different demons. Also, did not know that Paul Anderson had optioned the film rights to the series...that's interesting...

1999 has Galaxy Quest, so obviously it's the winner.

Can't be worse than Wing Commander...

Stuff (plot points, information, characters, sudden help) coming out of nowhere is kind of Erikson's thing...is it a good thing or a bad thing? I've never decided one way or another. But it's his thing.

Yeah, I'll probably take a few volunteers from here when we get to that point for FM3. Going to be awhile though...

Yeah, Eaters was originally going to be a serial series, but due to my hatred of writing short fiction and me getting engrossed in THE KING HENRY TAPES, it just kind of went nowhere. Probably a good thing too, there's kind of serial backlash going on at Amazon at the moment. John Scalzi...
