Stuperman

Plus it sounds like it was peacetime when they abandoned their oaths. Its much different when someone is trying to kill you and your friends

I think that by trying to do too much with the battle of Thaylen City, a lot of really heroic parts fell flat. Lift chasing Honors drop, while important, I didn't really care about when Dalinar was about to go super saiyan, ya know? Venli's internal struggle, definitely cool, but... did it need to happen right then? Idk. Just missed for me. Will probably start a re-read soon

I loved a ton of the parts in oathbringer but as a whole I think it fell a bit short (gave it 8/10).

Wouldn't the mountains work the same way with the everstorm though and slow it down? Obviously there is a lot more we'll find out soon in oathbringer so it might just be a RAFO kind of question, but I figured someone might have asked brandon this at some point. Maybe not. I guess it'll just be a suspenseful few days here haha

With Oathbringer right around the corner I recently re-read WoR and something about the Everstorm has been bothering me. I searched around and didn't see these answered anywhere - although I'm sure I'm not the first to ask/think about this. If it starts in the shattered plains and goes from west to east (assuming the world is round) wouldn't the storm die down by the time it reached alethkar? They say the highstorms aren't very bad in Shinovar, I would assume everstorms would be the worst in Shinovar and not bad after you get passed the mountains? Has this been addressed anywhere that I missed?
