the way of kings
Brandon Sanderson

the way of kings is part of the storm light archive series. 5 main books out now + 2 novellas, each book over 1000 pages long iirc. incredibly compelling setting and characters, interesting and grounded magic system, and many epic moments throughout.

i love Sage Francis. haven't heard this one yet though

i haven't heard of this book before but it seems interesting. i'll have to get a copy soon

thank you for this, i had never heard it before

are you willing to share the mix 🙏?

that sounds really frustrating, i'm sorry.

this typically is what leads to frustrating play, bc tiny corners of the hurtbox might visually extend past the edges of the players sprite/model, leading to "how did that hit me!?" moments. i think.

there's also the player hitbox for platforming purposes, and in some games the player hitbox and hurtbox are the same

hurtbox is for taking damage, attack hitboxes are for dealing damage. typically an enemy attack or spike hitbox is tested if it overlaps with the player hurtbox, and vice versa for player attacks and enemy hurtboxes. (1/2)

ah gotcha. yeah pogos with the hunter crest are tricky.

wait did you buy silksong?

i'm sorry :(

she's so cute i'm gonna scream

i had beyond meat once years ago and didn't like it, but your account has single handedly convinced me to try it again sometime soon.

🤔 good to know. i've been trying to decide on what to get for my first tattoo

Potential solution: use books you've already read and don't plan to read again in a while. Or simply don't plan to read at all but haven't gotten rid of yet
