I prefer era 2. The fact we aren't trapped in perpetual state of city under siege, means the threat is alot more personal for the characters and i care more about that. Maybe the fact the world isn't constantly ending makes for better a back and forth for mood and atmosphere. Getting drunk in a western bar can be Fun, while a shoot out to the death is Tense.
Im currently reading this book and I just read the part where they're drinking at the bar and stacking the coasters or whatever they were. I agree with that, we never really got moments like this during Era 1 and it did always seem like the same mood throughout for the most part. Im enjoying Era 2 a lot more myself so far. Wax and Wayne are probably my favorite characters in the Cosmere so far, followed closely by Kaladin. Hoid and Lightsong are great characters as well though. Im really looking forward to Moash as a character too and seeing what happens with him next and where he will end up. I guess Kelsier is a fun character too and should have an interesting journey. Lol
Wax and Wayne are probably my favorite characters in the Cosmere so far. They are begging for a tv series or movies, it's like a western meets Sherlock Holmes with magic. It could be really good if done right.
Nice vid. In my opinion Shadows of Self is the weakest of era 2 but i really liked Wax personal struggles, i think the magic and worldbuilding gets so much better in BoM.
