If you were to recommend OotS to someone, at what point would you say it begins getting really good?

Zulily Zoetrope posted:The Sapphire Guard had a rotten "nits make lice" core that Shojo had allowed to fester, and it was always going to be his undoing. We only really see Miko representing this because Rich prefers writing characters to writing groups, but she was not the only bad person in it. Hinjo, O-Chul and Lien are the exceptions. Those three individuals wouldn't kill Shojo, no, but The Sapphire Guard would have done it as soon as they caught whiff of any effort to stifle them. It's always been clear that the Sapphire Guard are cops (hey, their color is blue), but what Rich intended that to mean has perhaps somewhat changed over the years.

Random Stranger posted:It occurs to me that there's a problem with the ritual. So the gods wove the world as a prison for the snarl, right? And the rifts are tears in the fabric of the world letting the snarl out of the box. The gods don't live in the world, they're off on other planes. If the rift can be moved, it's shifting where the weak material is, but it's inherently part of the prime material plane. How do you move a lack of something to a place that by definition lacks it? It's like moving a hole in the ground to outer space; conceptually it just doesn't work. .... the Snarl is a Plot Hole.

SlothfulCobra posted:Also presumably most political states in the world of Order of the Stick aren't so directly connected with their religious obligations, but it's just a coincidence that we've seen so many that are. The dwarves are an exception because their souls are more on the line, the Azure Empire was explicitly an exception that everyone said was weird being run by paladins. Of the other states we've seen, Hobgoblins weren't actually directly serving The Dark One until Redcloak forcibly took over by assassinating who he thought was the leader. Greysky City seemingly was run by the thieves' guild. Tarquin's Empire, the puppet kingdoms he ran his shell game with, and the subject kingdoms of the desert didn't seem particularly motivated by religion (and part of Tarquin's mercenary advisor deal was providing a high priest). Can you even have 'secular' in a D&D world?
