Wheel of Time is the western equivalent to a long-running anime that went gone down the shitter in quality years ago but is still too profitable to die a respectable death.

I enjoy the series of books

No. It's the absolute bottom of the barrel, even for the genre. I'm not one of those /sff/ is a waste of time fags, but seriously just stop wasting your time on it and go read something better.

I quit Eye of the World 200 pages in. It’s like a Tolkien rip off for suburban boys.I don’t see how anyone over 16 can enjoy it, it’s a soulless mess imo and I cringed every time Mat or whatever his name sniggered.

If you don't like it now, might as well quit the series.
I loved the series. It was the book 2 when the Seanchan and damane were introduced that hooked me.
I have tried reading other finished fantasy but I still haven't got the same high I did in WOT

Just keep reading and you'll get to enjoy Jordan's hamfisted insertion of his fetishes become even more bizarre and uncomfortably sexual.

whoa how immersion breaking

because they're cunts, they grow up a lot starting around book 9 - but the females being written by an old dude is a valid complaint

Cope. I like the Pendragon books because I read them when I was twelve but I admit they're shit.
Drop it OP. Its great for middle schoolers but if you read WoT older they're not worth it.

I stopped reading after like book 8 and I feel I should have stopped before that. First book is pretty cool but generic but the rest is just a drag.

It bugged me that Rand's big revelation that convinced him not to an hero again was that he gets a second chance to do things right. Wasn't the whole reason behind his despair the fact that even if he did win this time around, the Wheel would spin and he would be forced to face the Dark One again, and that he had to win every single time while the other side just had to win once to win forever?
