    Each unmade reminds me of some passion/emotion that goes out of control. Certainly related to Odium in that way, even though some have more/less autonomy (Sja-Anat). Great metaphysical psychology Sanderson has going here. Fantastic work!

      That’s an interesting thread that could get pulled on more. We don’t know enough about all of them, but I have a budding theory that there is a connection to the 9 surges the Fused follow, with one each in some distorted way. We’ll have to read more to find out!

    After the 5th book you should make 100 videos on every single topic. No one is giving in depth videos as we don't know everything and sometimes they are not willing. You should be the de facto channel for storm light archive. Best of luck

    • @Unarchivist
      @Unarchivist  Месяц назад

      Hey wow that’s high praise! Thank you so much!! I’m not full time by any means, and these videos took a ton of time to put together. I certainly have a plan to get to 100 videos eventually, but it will be a long journey of multiple years to get to that. There’s plenty of time before Stormlight 6, so that will help, but I definitely want to maintain quality over quantity. Deep dives are definitely on the list for new content, so stick around!

      @@codystrickland6803 I'm sorry you feel that way. But think of how much fun Hoid will have facing a wily opponent. If this whole thing was just Hoid 100% beating Vargodium, that would mean there's no tension in the book. We would already know that Hoid was just gonna win, cuz he's impossible to beat. Isn't it more fun going into Rhythm knowing there are some actual stakes to the fight?

  • @macmay3042
    @macmay3042 Месяц назад

    I can see the criteria you picked to determine which Unmade were most "impactful" but it's not what I would have picked... I think Ba-Ado-Mishram casts a long shadow. Also I always get Nergaoul and Moelach confused ^^;;;

    • @macmay3042
      @macmay3042 Месяц назад

      @@Unarchivist I would definitely have put Ba-Ado-Mishram at the top. The fact that she is the reason why there are parshmen and deadeyes is a huge deal to every aspect of the story.
      I would say we're mostly in agreement on the rest. Keep in mind I'm not saying I think you're wrong. I think that it looks like you're putting more weight on direct impact we see on-screen during the time period of the books. Which isn't necessarily how I'd go about it, but it's not wrong.
      I'd have a lot of trouble placing Moelach, since we see almost no genuinely useful Death Rattles "on screen" but at the same time Vargo says he's been using them to refine the Diagram, so what percentage of the impact of the Diagram do we attribute to that Unmade? Reasonable scholars can disagree.

    • @Unarchivist
      @Unarchivist  Месяц назад

      Discussions like this are great, and disagreements are inevitable. Mishram was placed at the bottom of the “so far” list based on how prevalent they’ve been in the story so far. Obviously, we think she’s at the top in WaT, and probably moving forward. I do get your point about how her pre-story impacts shaped the world we see, so she could be at the top for “so far” as well.
