It doesn't shock me that a forum for book readers trended towards Ravenclaw/ As am I

Favorite non-radiant Stormlight Character? [Poll]
Saxsoon replied to Aredor's topic in Stormlight Archive
I mean this is the who is your favorite Adolin character in Stormlight. Adolin or Adolin? -
I feel like Horneaters would be important, especially if it helps set up a supposed Horneater book Maybe one of the Unmade, maybe Sja-anat and learn more about Renarin and his spren. Without revealing a SP spoiler, there is a character I would be interested in seeing more We got so little of Rysn in Book 4 that I hope we see more of her with the Dawnshard or something with the Sleepless.

Is it the same planet? (Yumi spoilers)
Saxsoon replied to The flying spider's topic in Cosmere Discussion
It definitely crossed my mind. Brandon is getting more and more bold referencing Yolen and the Sho del which is really exciting. -
I could see Brandon laying the seedwork for Era 4 of Mistborn where he is a main viewpoint and trying to have this torment removed. I could even see Brandon rewriting the chapter where Nomad and him talk from Hoid's perspective and then seeking out this planet.

I am going to be painfully blunt. I feel the exact opposite, I am excited. Brandon needs help to finish the Cosmere in the future. Having people like Dan let's us explore other world's while Brandon gets to keep more focus on the larger arcs of the cosmere. We can get different tones, different characters than one man could write, even at his prodigious speeds. Also Brandon doesn't write in a silo. He has a whole company and fans WHO FACT CHECK HIM on every book he writes. This isn't going to change with someone else.

I honestly don't remember but I think an old college buddy was telling me he was reading it during a gaming session (it being Mistborn). Ironically I am the one who became hooked and he fell off. I fell off Sanderson several years ago not fully recognizing the Cosmere was a thing after reading Oathbringer (I struggled with Stormlight on my first read). But I became a full on fan again during the year of Sanderson kickstarter and rediscovered my love of it. Read everything last year and actually did a reread of Stormlight again and on RoW right now.

Least Favorite Cosmere Works
Saxsoon replied to Ravenclawjedi42's topic in General Brandon Discussion
I am not a huge fan of Warbreaker, granted the only thing I haven't read is White Sand. It just never clicked for me even if I like the world a lot. I am glad I have read it though since it seems to be very important in the long term. -
You Know You're a Sanderfan When...
Saxsoon replied to Shardbearer's topic in General Brandon Discussion
I have found my last several D&D characters have been named after Cosmere Characters. Ladrian, Kaladin, Sarene, using last names like Colms, a fey character named Syl. -
Sunlit Man Full Book Reactions (Cosmere Edition)
Saxsoon replied to Chaos's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I loved the call out to visiting a floating city on a planet near his homeworld. Hello Ashyn! Also fascinating that the dawnshard allows him to consume any investiture with some help and that they are using Breaths as the standard of the cosmere. -
Why Radiants are incredibly overpowered, and Mistborn aren't.
Saxsoon replied to Frustration's topic in Cosmere Discussion
I agree with everything we have seen so far BUT Brandon is going to make a story where these systems mix. I have a feeling that duralumin push right through the spine of plated Radiant is going to kill and shock many of us Frankly Sanderson is not going to create an intergalactic cosmere war if it is so one sided. -
Feruchemy is probably the most interesting in that there are times where I just don't want to be around people and could use that time to build up my abilities

Would you rather be stuck in a highstorm with:
Saxsoon replied to Tamriel Wolfsbaine's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Windrunner is obvious with what Kal pulled in front of the Parsh if consistent and also fly you out Elsecaller can pull you straight out Stoneware can obviously . .. ward stone for you -
Elantrians are kinda the if Batman has prep time meme. If the elantrian has time, especially if disguised to trick the Radiant. Absolutely the Elantrian Anything else then Radiant
-
I think Scadrial is soon becoming our world with metal powers which could be familiar yet fun and exciting. I am not quite sure what type of ability I would want but the metal powers are so enticing and interesting
-
Reminds me of a Stargate SG1 episode where children were used to gain ultimate knowledge for their society . . . and well spoilers.

Anybody Else Unsatisfied with the Ending?
Saxsoon replied to Underwater_Worldhopper's topic in Cosmere Discussion
Not really to be honest. In fact I imagine the noodle shop becoming a waystation in Era 4 for world hoppers. I don't think this is the last we see of all this world at all. -
Maybe I Missed Something Super Obvious but..
Saxsoon replied to JohnnyKaizen's topic in Cosmere Discussion
The Shardcast interview was interesting to say the least. Conceivably Painter if put in a similar situation as Yumi could have done something similar. -
I think he is fascinated with post apocalypses so far in the future that humanity has recovered.
