Well, I think the position can be summarized as:

-He's a good person at the end of the day.

-He and Raynor are close friends, to the extent that their friendship is "inestimable."

-These are...

It's a fair point, and I do agree that everyone reads between the lines. That said, I don't think saying "there isn't a hidden meaning here" (reading between the lines refers to the ability to deduce...

General



I'm rarely into anthologies of sci-fi/fantasy works, at least those not in established settings. Main issue is that a short story not only has to establish its characters in a short...

And yet, people say it all the time. The more common phrase is "reading too much into it." But I can't even give Nissa that much credit because all she's done is make assertions without backing them...

Two words: Fire Emblem.

Unfortunately a mention is all there is.

"Lying on a desert plain with mountains to its north, the city is exceptionally expansive with the core of the city on higher ground than the outlying regions to the southwest on the banks of a...

It's quite possible they took your measurements actually - I remember Phill Gonzales (a Blizz artist) saying that (paraphrased) "we're big fans of [Robear's] work." Think it was on Deviantart.

It...

Then why are we arguing? My point up to this point is that the magistrate has no personality at all, that he's indeed a vehicle (player character) and as such, like so many PCs, bereft of any real...

Going by subject:

EverQuest: No Poetry in Death

The EverQuest e-books have more or less become standard short reads for me - standard practice as part of short reads between larger works. I'm...

Nissa, you can "read between the lines" all you want, but at the end of the day, there's no lines to read between. The times when Raynor addresses the magistrate is as follows:

Mission 2:
...

Raynor, if anything, bullies the magistrate into coming along ("I'm gone, and you better come with me"). Yep. Such a wonderful friendship they've got there. And the magistrate didn't even bother to...

Let's see, by this point, the KEF has been hit hard at Tarsonis, they're on a planet that has the entirety of the zerg on it (most of those zerg apparently doing nothing but letting the cerebrate do...

To be honest, taking SC1 by itself, I always got the sense of Kerrigan being in that position already. Gameplay-wise, she trumps any ground unit in the game basically (cloaking, psionic storm, her...

Why? The magistrate has no personality, so it's my perogative to give him whatever personality I like.

At the end of the day, there's no evidence for the magistrate being a "cool guy," or...

Concerning Mistborn, something I forgot to mention is the wordpainting. Minor point, but I loved the visuals the novel conjured in my mind. The mists, the grime of Luthandel, etc.

As for VoK's...

I've been aware of it for awhile now, but I've got no desire to get it for various reasons. Too little going for it for me, and there's far more interesting strategy titles coming up anyway.

So, time to stir the barrel:

The Expanse

I saw the trailer awhile ago, no thanks to Syfy's region locking I might add. In a word, it looks...bleh. Forgive me for not being impressed when it...

I've repeatedly stated that Interstellar was the worst movie THAT I'D SEEN. I don't recall calling it the worst movie of the year, because there's undoubtedly worse movies that have been released...

Oh, apply the same standards by all means. But as I said earlier, plotholes can be skimmed over if other aspects make up for them. Gravity has plotholes for instance (e.g. the whole Russian...

Well, this escalated quickly. Concerning the points:

-Interstellar: ...okay, here we go. And bear in mind, I said "worst film I'd seen," not worst film period. I'm sure plenty of worse films were...

Of the above options, I'd go with dull. I've only read the first two books and the New Spring graphic novel, but, well, yeah. Basically "Lord of the Rings lite."

Starship Troopers

Only Heinlein book I've read. I consider it "good," but don't particuarly like it. On one hand, it delves into some interesting concepts, but that's also its biggest weakness....

Immorality: Actions and/or thoughts that stand in contrast to what is deemed as and/or perceived as moral. Used as a negative connotation.

Amorality: Not related to morality and/or lacking moral...

Yeah, I definately get that D1/D2 are separate games from D3 down to their very concept and whatnot. Concerning the D3 novels, there's only two, both of which novelize the game, though the first...
