I think all the hate is mainly because BS got some stuff wrong Fox and Ravens Send a noteboard - 05/12/2010 04:02:25 PM
Such as Mat's letter.

Other hatred is from The good guys always having such an easy time from it all. They just get so lucky and and it's been happening over and over and over again.

And I'm thinking the last piece is that it went from being a pretty deep and complex world to being relatively linear, 1 dimensional, and predictable. But I think by changing writers in on any series, that would happen. In order to not flub up a million times, they have to simplify it and flub up only some times.

Anyway, that's my take on it.
Go Hokies!

CS/CpE. Yay engineering!

Yup, Sanderson has no subtly, or at least assumes that his readers have an IQ of 6. Lord Haart - 06/12/2010 01:04:44 AM 1004 Views
