Hello World Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Yeah, not worth paying that much for it, to be honest. There is 2 hours left on that listing, by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madness Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Went for three bills. But you can have another for the same, or on actual payment plan at $28 for 12 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Richard II Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Jesus, I can't think of a book I'd pay that much for. Maybe if it was never going to be published or something and only like 100 copies existed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madness Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 I'm reminded of Shkreli and Wu-Tang's last album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalbear Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Spoiler This is either somewhat misleading or hugely misleading. It's not as bad as a couple of the other ones he did, but it's certainly nothing to start theorybating about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalbear Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Just now, Madness said: #hypekiller There's a ton of things to be actually hyped about in the book, honestly. I don't see why misleading people is the way to go. Like, for instance: Spoiler You will find out the identity of the voice that speaks to Kellhus. Or Spoiler You will find out the truth and background of the Inverse Fire. Those are at least cool things to think will get answered. If you want to get actual teasers about the book itself: Spoiler There are fights with demons, dragons, two new kinds of sranc, and one totally new Inchoroi weapon never been seen before.

Madness Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Lol, I'm still not bakkerfans. Enjoy the Kalbear Show 2017 while it lasts, bud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalbear Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Just now, Darth Richard II said: Yes but how much Black Semen? Not a whole lot. Or here's a passage that I think can work to not be all that spoilery that I really liked and I kept thinking about for a while after I finished. Spoiler The Holy Aspect-Emperor replied as if this were the very clay to be cracked and sifted. “As they have to! The thing—the most horrific thing to understand, Proyas, is that at some point the Inchoroi must win. At some point, perhaps this year or ages hence, the whole of humanity will be butchered. Think on it! Why did Momas strike Momemn, his namesake city, and not this infernal place? Why is Eternity blind to Golgotterath? Because it stands outside Eternity, outside what the Gods can see. And that blindness is nothing short of breathtaking, Proyas! Our actions, our Great Ordeal, follows a doom outside of doom! We undertake a pilgrimage that rewrites the Hundred with every step!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say you were, and didn't think you were; I just don't get why someone would outright and deliberately mislead about the teasers, which bakkerfans has done at least twice. The most charitable conclusion is that those bits were cut, and that sucks. The most recent one wasn't cut, but it's really misleading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most recent one seems to me one that can be interpreted in many ways. I would not qualify that as misleading, but I haven't had the pleasure of reading TUC as of yet. Regarding the Golgorrerath map, is it a similar one like Shimeh, that is laying out the environs and (some of) the various factions, or is it a map of the interior of the Ark...?

Calibandar Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 "Angel descends" to me brings to mind a literal Angelic creature, so possibly the rumoured Angelic Ciphrang. Or maybe reference to Mog Pharau. Could of course be metaphoric for so many things. I guess it just seems to suggest we'll be seeing someone or something of a special nature.

akh Posted June 3, 2017 Share Posted June 3, 2017 Or maybe it's just an angelic looking Serwa raining down destruction from the sky, swooping into the battle in some shiny sorcery way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry of the Lawn Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I believe the Inchie Bros were at one point described by the Cunuroi as 'the angel physicians'. Perhaps this refers to Aurang fellating Aurax. I mean my phone is already trying to autocorrect Inchie Bros to 'Inchie Bris' so wtf do I know?!? 23 hours ago, Madness said: #hypekiller Dude I've pre-ordered the ebook and the hardcopy but I don't think that this thread actually influences sales, within or without it.

Yeah, this is why I said don't get too much into the theorybating. 4 hours ago, akh said: Or maybe it's just an angelic looking Serwa raining down destruction from the sky, swooping into the battle in some shiny sorcery way. Depending on what he's referring to this is much more close to the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idfk, on SA Wert said that MG's teaser had "four" possible interpretations. So like... #hypekiller, as the skin-spy said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
