I wonder if it bothers him that he no longer has anything to do other than write, and thus has no excuse not to finish his book jk i know it doesn't

Terror Sweat posted:Yeah but there was also that bandit camp killing scene which was pretty dope. It was an excellent way to really show off the magic system he spent a book and a half refining. More of that and less of everything else and we're golden. my reaction to that scene was "oh poo poo, after like 20 hours of audiobook of fuckin nothing happening, we're actually getting somewhere, i can't wait to see the consequences of and followup to all of this" lol at what the consequences (nothing, not a drat thing) and follow up (loving a fairy for thousands of years or whatever) ended up being

i mean retroactively making them lead by a chandrian was the only way to make it at least look like literally anything in that book actually mattered

TheGreatEvilKing posted:The random bandit wood fight, and I guess one of the Chandrian is beating Denna because he is a mean poopy head. wait, did we find out about the latter from the mean tree or something i don't feel like trying to find a section between all of rothfuss's pathetic sexual fantasies to verify

pentyne posted:Doesn't he have a vision/dream of her bruised and crying in a room somewhere? given how one of the gay(?) bar men who hired kvothe took him aside to tell him that the only three professions available to women are seamstress, noblewoman or prostitute and that he shouldn't begrudge her for taking the third option i think creepy male feminist bait seems about right

Kchama posted:This doesn't really make sense considering that there's women at the University. What, are they learning magic for funsies, or is it how they're going to become better seamstresses or prostitutes? I think the idea is that they firmly fall into the category of "noblewoman," given how much Kvothe whines at length about how everyone else had wealthy families to pay for not-wizard school and he alone had to work for a living

TheGreatEvilKing posted:He has to write his entire plot in one book. there was that time that whats his face tricked kvothe into entering the library with a lit candle, but only because he was drugged and had been physically beaten betsy, you loving rear end in a top hat how dare you suggest kvothe was uncharacteristically stupid here

i just assume that every time the story goes out of its way to explain why kvothe didn't do the logical thing, it's because his editor pointed out that kvothe wasn't doing a logical thing

Evil Fluffy posted:It's not baffling. It's a good idea and Rothfuss is a bad writer who got lucky much like the woman who wrote Twilight. that's not fair, meyer actually finished her series

Democratic Pirate posted:At this point in the process, who would cause more pain if they were Rothfuss’ seat mate on an airplane? a typical fan who casually mentions that they are looking forward to book three and leaves it at that

College being expensive: you don't understand the pain and suffering, the torment of being surrounded by the wealthy elites and having to work so hard at my job doing the things I love for a lot of money, but not enough money Parents being raped and murdered, entire life being destroyed, left alone for years and forced onto the streets: I moped around for a bit, then took a bath and pulled myself together, nbd

pentyne posted:Yeah the street urchin phase is bizarre as hell, especially since he had all the same talents like being a music God and yet wasn't able to find a single way to turn those abilities into making money until his magic bath and stealing a noble clothes set. his d&d bard knew pick pocket, and he had to work out how he got it in his backstory
