Sounds good actually.
The whole "Tips fedora" thing in relation to my post seems a little weird. It's supposed to be an insult towards mid-twenties redditers who fully enforce athiesm at every chance they get, and yet Dostoyevsky is probably one of the most religious and spiritual writers, who deeply advocates the acceptance of God and virtue in many of his works.
tl;dr, he was trying to insult me but he actually made himself look retarded.

OP you're my nigga. Which one is that anyway? I can't remember off the top of my head.
Also go read Codex Alera and Cinder Spires if you haven't already.
>The Dark Tower
It's fucked. You can't accurately capture the scale of that world, and open-world would just fuck everything up anyway. Although a bullet-time sort of thing for combat as Roland would be fucking sweet though.

It does not matter what developer handless the material: the material is so utterly and absolutely unsuitable to be made into a game it's not even funny. There would be no point, no purpose for interaction: at the absolute best, it would make for a passive walking sim and exploration game. And that is no fun to play.

Well shit... poor Kojima. You'll be forced to make a Kickstarter so you can budget part 2. And then comes the shit-eating BDSM scene not so long after the main character's fucked up hallucinations, make sure you get your buddy Del Toro to direct those mo-caps.

Yep, it's new. Only one book in it so far. As much as it pains me to say it, it's set in a Steampunk Fantasy world that involves airships, piracy, and all that shit. The surface of the world is covered in clouds and everyone lives in giant stone towers that rise from the surface. It's a bit slow at the start since all the made-up terminology needs to be introduced, but it's more or less what I've come to expect from Butcher. Good stuff.
The talking cat is the best character.
Good ass fucking book. Good taste user. Faulkner's other three big ones, Absalom, Absalom, Light and August and As I Lay Dying are fuckwin too.

Not sure how this would work.
What the fuck? Who is Dean Koontz?
I'm currently reading the Greeks you stupid cunt
I used to read so many novels now I can't even finish reading 1 chapter without my mind wandering to other things.
I'll read one sentence and reread it 3 times because I wasn't really playing attention.
Anybody else got this problem?
The guys who made Until Dawn making a House of Leaves game?
Huh.
Anyone who reads anything besides trashy genre fiction is a fedora tipper, of course.
That could actually work out as a shitty fighting game where all the characters have the same name. There'd be lots of ghosts, psychic powers and execution shootings

Reading is not as engaging as visual forms of entertainment.
Jesus christ Sup Forums, read proper literature, not YA and/or science fiction garbage.
Currently reading The Day of the Jackal and finished before that Unfinished Tales of Númenor and Middle-earth.
Last game played: Transformers: Devastation
So either super assassin simulator or another Shadow of Mordor?
I tried reading the first one of Dresden but it's so fucking shite
It's exactly the kind of crap that a 14 year old would come up with in a creative writing class, I couldn't even bring myself to finish it

Honestly curious, how many people here have read the Dresden Files? Whenever a thread like this pops up it always uses the first page of Blood Rites.
The first book was a little lame. What makes them good is that Butcher is good at world-building, good at his rules for how magic works, and has really great bad-ends for everyone. You can see him getting better as a writer as the books go, too, but they're always gonna be cheesy noir pulp with wizards.
