So, it’s like Driver? I liked that.

Yeah, Athens was a fascist hellhole. Well the reverance for the military was just that and not the all surpassing glorification of sparta, but still.

Wow, that was really superficial and dense. I lost the interest in reading further after the 5th paragraph, but I still saw 3 big questions:

It turned him from the indestructible (going so far that AFAIK his storylines are really weird even by comics standarts) unstopable hero, who always does the right thing (well, at least in a sentimental way) into an interesting character. He is indestructible, but he is still one man. He is a superhuman alien, but his…

Hmm, if I remember correctly, Stormlight 6 through 10 are planned after Mistborn 3 (Or Mistborn 4, now that Way and Wayne are 2?). The first 5 five will be quick, but the whole ten will take decades. Sorry :-)

I only played Black Flag, but his wife being on the other side of the ocean in that time, not seen by him in years, and wasn’t there even some real problem at home, like debt or crime or something? ...Well, I thought right away that she would only be a thing of the past. But I didn’t finish the game, when I had to…

Having learned just now that origins is set so late, I have one question: Why does it look so oldy egyptian, like really oldy, and not greek-egyptian-arabian-levantine-roman like it did in real life?

And he can walk on water, too!

Yeah, because as soon as someone discovers somewhere it’s no use to learn further history... Granted, people should always say “mainland european discovery,” or “Christopher Columbus discovered the americas for mainland europeans.” Or more exactly, “he discovered it for the for public knowledge for africans, europeans…

Slyly done, taking something that could be meant as something fishy and replying so any answer at all except begging for forgiveness seems evil. What is the saying, “when you assume...?”

On the one hand, I’m not a fan of sexism, so I’m not a fan of this. But on the other hand I can totally see that there is something amiss, and that encouragement in a better direction from the current situation wouldn’t go amiss.

2. I could never get past the first 100 or so pages of those, too boring, not even close to his original series.

Wow. I get that people can like Rogue Squadron more than Wraith Squadron, although I surely don’t. But dismissing everything besides the first Rogue Squadron series is crazy.

Yeah, you’re right, I’m wrong.

You’re right, I’m an idiot.

Ok, first of all add a “what ever” to the end of my little list above. I wanted to say I don’t see the need to call religious representatives a special name, if their role wasn’t widely different than others somwhere or sometime else. And, of course, we’re talking in a general public context, in the humanities it’s…

I feel that 100 years isn’t that big a deal if a) you’re not historicly accurate from the outset and b) it’s a really big thing like greco-persian animosity. Oh and c) you use the most well-known instances. If you bring in that discrepancy just to feature some relatively unknown general or similar, it’s a bit much, I…

You brought up the big problem with Boudiccas fame: Throwing her in with made up things like Robin Hood, druids and so on makes her seem like one of the more generic folk heroes. Among the arthurian-druidic Robin Hoodness she gets lost.

Yeah... There never were druids. It’s a New Age invention.

Hmm, I think a show following the “Vikings” pattern would be way better. Why insert druids? It’s a new age thing, neither a historic thing, nor a mystic thing, so it does nothing for realism or story and plotting. But, fair enough, I guess.
