It's been almost 15 years since Elantris came out and some more to come before Brandon writes the sequels. Can you imagine when they come out and they get announced as a series and new readers have to see the massive change from the way Book 1 is written compared to Book 2? Brandon has changed they way he writes a lot since 2005. Cosmere fans have had time to get used to it but someone who's just getting introduced to Brandon with Elantris would probably be pretty bewildered.

Sometime this year he says. That's a lot of writing to do for a single year. When does he sleep? I'm mostly excited about the ones for Rock and Rysn. Especially Rysn. I've spent three books wishing she had more page time. But by the look of things, by the time this series is finished I'll need an entire bookshelf exclusively for Stormlight.

I've taken the test twice in a space of about five years because losing-my-account reasons and both times I was sorted into Ravenclaw. Now, I'm actually surprised by the results of the poll. I mean, given where we are, it shouldn't, but from what I remember in the old Pottermore site the number of members in each house was displayed and it was pretty balanced. I'd expect Ravenclaw to be the main house in the Shard, yes, but not this big of a difference.

"Yeah, but the gun is quicker." said Edwin, then went to the kitchen and grabbed something from the fridge. If there was anything that helped with bad experiences, that was food.

Edwin was walking towards the stairs when Ben and Shana stepped in. He felt relieved, if just a bit. That was two less to worry about. "Yeah, here at least. I was just going to check upstairs."

Edwin was still there, recovering from the, experience, when he heard Rob “Is everyone okay?” he said. It had been already a while since Edwin had woken up, he wondered if Rob had had more trouble with it. "Everything alright on this side." he answered, then got up and started for the second floor, Twin sitting on his shoulder. He wanted to make sure everyone had come back.

Game of Thrones (Spoilers for the latest episodes)
Eluvianii replied to Wander89's topic in Entertainment Discussion
I liked the ending enough so that I won't have a bitter taste every time I remember the show. But that's the thing, the ending is about the only thing I actually liked about this season, it's like they just wrote the final minutes and didn't care about the rest. This seems just like a big case of destination before journey. -
I don't know, from what I've seen, their games, though acclaimed for their lore, center themselves too much around gameplay and too little around story. I for one, wouldn't like a boss rush with the story being item descriptions and 30-second cutscenes every five hours. Not if we're talking about a Sanderson adaptation.

Remember that swinging mechanic in the Spider-man 2 game, where the first thing you did was crash on a wall unable to control this new experience but with a bit of practice it gets easier and easier? Imagine eight separate systems like that for allomancy in a Mistborn game. Like, as a player you can go through the game switching between metals as needed if you want, but you could also practice using them all at the same time, which would make the game incredibly difficult but also incredibly rewarding.

"Ugh, I was hoping ir didn't come to this." Edwin did the same as Doc and pictured a gun in his hand. He looked at Twin warningly, so she'd prepare herself. If she was here because he was asleep, this was going to be just as unpleasant for her as it was going to be for him. He pointed the gun at his head and pulled the trigger. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Edwin woke up in the living room with his heart racing. "That was." he started between gasps. "That was intense."

Nightwatcher Boon/Bane (Game)
Eluvianii replied to killersquirrel59's topic in Forum Games & Random Stuff
Darn, I gave you a double boon. Granted. This is a bit of a problem because now the entire world is made of noodles. And the people. And basically every physical thing that isn't you. Have fun. Something simple, I wish for a kindle. -
Nightwatcher Boon/Bane (Game)
Eluvianii replied to killersquirrel59's topic in Forum Games & Random Stuff
Granted, you're a blast-ended skrewt. I wish that Shai (The Emperor's Soul) would protagonize another book. -
The scene they were now witnessing was devastating. In a moment he understood how lucky they had been. Were they going through the same? Just another dream? But, those were Voidbringers. He hadn't seen one first hand, they didn't let him go to battles yet, but those red eyes were unmistakable. They hadn't seen any Voidbringers. In fact, their experience had been so bizarre, so unreal, yet what was now in front of them... "Is this real? I mean, is it happening in real life?"

You Know You're a Sanderfan When...
Eluvianii replied to Shardbearer's topic in General Brandon Discussion
When you want to write a story, but don't get on with it because your magic system is not hard enough. Also, off-topic but I'll leave this mark here for future generations. -
Edwin lost his balance as he swung the naginata and hit nothing. They were disappearing into dust, it was like they had never been there in the first place. "Huh, it's just like in..." "Don't." cut him Twinkle, annoyed at his references. But he realized he had been celebrating too soon. They weren't gone, not exactly. Then Draug... Edwin ran to him, worried.

How would you break up episodes for a Stormlight TV Show?
Eluvianii replied to kientha's topic in Stormlight Archive
For the interludes, they'd probably have to cut the ones with non-recurring characters and put whatever there is to learn from them somewhere else. Now, for recurring characters like Szeth, Lift or Rysn, just putting them on the same point as in the books should work. Each one would probably be no more than 5-10 minutes of an episode and it would create curiosity, like "Hey, it's this guy again, I wonder what's up with him." It would blend in pretty nicely.- 20 replies
