I think it'd fit more in a open world game, like Skyrim, Sims, GTA, prototype, etc.

Precisely.

Brandon Sanderson's job is not excluding religion. He will write it believably. If all of the people found out that he was an epic...people would either turn in to fear or get angry. Some, that admires Epics, would worship him. That is what would happen and Brandon clearly knows this.

In Mistborn, there's fake religions. Why is this book any different?

That'd be like an easter bunny joining a villian, like Bizarro (Anti-superman) because the bunny wants to be evil. But yes, I admit. It would be very cool if he DID get powers.

There's only one question...if the Epic's powers are based on fears and then the fear is gone. Wouldn't the power be gone, too? The weakness of an epic, would it stay the same? What if Megan is just using David after all? We know from the first few chapters of Steelheart that she's a really good actor.

Oh, no no. I didn't mean accidental unpredictability. I meant when he's aware of the guy trying to do something...like a feint in boxing. You saw something coming but it hits you in another place. Although the end-fight with Firefight...I don't think one time would render his powers to none but it weakens his powers. It also says the sheilds he tried squeezing David or Firefight, were getting smaller and smaller...from my understanding.

It was like finding a white paint in a black paint can that was painted white, but somehow it was painted black. I already suck at figurative language like a person trying to fly. Idk

Well, it actually sounds like something Brandon would write...but, you know...it's Brandon, he uses misdirection...a lot.

I think I figured out Calamity's weakness. He's practically a god, right? When David said no to him. He didn't respond to Regalia for a while. ...could it be that his weakness is denial?

Oh? His group was infiltrated by Megan, which I think would be relatively easy for her, since she can make alternate reality. Why would you think he'd risk being sabotaged? He deemed that David was trying to sabotage the Reckoners group. Do you really think he can trust his crew? They're not even friends, they're just a group that goes along together without...y'know knowing each other. I don't think you'd tell your mates you barely know about your weakness. Also there's the risk of forced interrogation out of any captured Reckoners.

Oh, well...silly me.

There is one thing that doesnt make sense is that Regalia flooded the city so why didnt the water go down? Steel is a solid so it makes sense that it stayed steel but this is water we're talking about. Water that goes uphill should take an epic to power that...but now Regalia is dead... The water should just flop down...

Actually, it's not even failure. It's losing something competitive. He failed at killing David so it's not even at all failure. It's the competition of something simple. I don't think competition of other epics would render his powers. He's careful and calculating so maybe luck is his weakness. Or or or ooh! Unpredictability.

It was automatic rifle. Bulletproof glass would eventually break with a number of shots, and depending how much concentrated damage it takes. I think Prof's sheilds aren't so much consistent, like AndrolGenhald says. I would think it's how much willpower he puts into these shields...ahem, like Green Lantern, ahem...anyway. We also know he controls the sheilds specific movement. Can make a shape, size, whatnot... Perhaps it's JUST the windows and not the walls. Also he was found mumbling in disbelief, maybe he let the sheild down as he realized he made a mistake, which is when Megan entered the building, despite the fire.
