Roshar | The Cosmere 101

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ม.ค. 2023
- In the Cosmere there are, of course, many planets that have Shards invested on them. Some of these planets are young and newly created, like Scadrial. Some have a single Shard invested, like Nalthis. Others have two Shards that have both been splintered, like Sel.
But there is a planet on the Cosmere that is small, yet feels so massive. There is a planet on the Cosmere that is ancient, but always feels new. There is a planet on the Cosmere that not only has three Shards invested on it, but where one of those Shards has been splintered, one was forcibly locked in to that planet, and the other is scheming behind the scenes to achieve things we could only guess at. A planet that has drawn the attention of many worldhoppers and some mysterious organisations.
I’m talking, of course, about the planet of Roshar.
Now, to cover some basics, Roshar is a planet in the Cosmere and one of thirteen planets in the Rosharan system. It is also the name of the supercontinent that contains all of the planet's known inhabitants and is the second planet from the system's sun, orbiting between Ashyn and Braize. The people from Roshar are called Rosharans and at night they can see the planet’s three orbiting moons.
But there must be more to this planet, of course. What about the Geography? The Ecology? The History, Culture, and Society? Well in this video, we’ll delve into all of that and more.

The fact that Brandon was able to shove in this much information in only 4 books is insane, not the mention how natural it feels. It never feels like he's overexplaining the world in the books
Exactly! In fact, he could stand to explain more 😂
I'm a big fan, but as a few other people have mentioned using the VHS filter all the way through is tough to watch. Use it like Hoid, less is more.
PLEASE keep up the excellent work though, truely. You make excellent videos.
Lol appreciate it. Maybe I will do a poll to see what other people think
Totally agree
I was so amazed by how Brandon thought about his world building. The difference between humans and singers....amazing. I also heard someone who didnt like WoK they thought the world building didnt make sense like why are there horses in such a harsh environment. Brandon is good
He is REALLY good
I really enjoyed this video. You do a great job explaining things. However, I would really love to see you drop the fake VHS picture or whatever you call it. It’s very distracting, and it completely takes away from the quality of the video you are showing. I’m not sure I understand the purpose for it but your videos don’t need that. Anyway, thanks for listening and considering my suggestion.
Appreciate your input. I'll see what the other viewers say
While I've thoroughly enjoyed your other content, and wouldn't mind getting some more, this right here is what brought me to your channel and convinced me that I want to comment on every very deo since almost the beginning. Your insights and breakdowns bring joy to my days.
Thank you Josh, you're the real OG on this channel. You've been around since at least the 100 subscriber video, if not earlier. Appreciate you bro 👊
Great video, reminded me why I fell in love with Brandon's worldbuilding in Stormlight ;) Can't wait to do a reread of it next year
Currently doing a reread myself ☺
@@RavensRants I wish I could too but I have very little time for reading now. I will do one sometime before SA 5 though
Bruh. You should try hearing it from Graphic Audio. Its SO worth it and I just starting getting into Kaladin trying to win over Bridge 4.
Thrilled to see you uploading so much recently! The amount of research you put into your videos is evident and I appreciate it. 🎉
My one viewer request is to reduce the use of the VHS filter, or at the very least remove the screen darkening parts. It distracts from your well organized narration and makes the art nearly impossible to see. 🙏🏻
Keep up the excellent work, though! Can't wait to see what else you put out in the near future. ❤️
Thanks for the kind words! I'll definitely be tweaking that effect down soon. Working on an aesthetic for the channel, but there's bound to be some adjustment at first.
lovin the upload frequency lately!
You better not get burnt out, careful you don't rush yourself.
Lol thanks for the concern. Nah, I've got a fire lit under me again and I'm doing it in a much more sustainable way this time. In fact, the upload frequency would be even higher if TH-cam weren't holding some of my videos back for copyright. My upload frequency should actually be 50% more than it currently is 😂
That's good to hear, looking froward to them.
Great to see you getting back into lore videos!
Thanks bro!

What is this one referring to?
Roshar is one of my favorite fantasy worlds nice to see you cover it
It's my favorite for sure
@@RavensRants The only world I like more is Nirn and the elder scrolls universe because that’s what got me into fantasy
Thanks for the video, learned alot about roshar. Way of kings was my first Brandon novel and it's definitely my favorite series. I love the magic system.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Just started it !
This is a very accurate and entrataining video, congrats ❤🎉
The VHS effect got old quickly and became a major distraction.
Yeah it's something I'm working on
For the algorithm
Blood for the blood God!
@@RavensRants wrong fantasy world. Honor for the honor shard
love your content. but the damn "tracking" of the cassette tape is a bit annoying
What a video
♥
While I enjoyed listening to your video I had to keep it minimized. The VHS filter would be nice on the intro, but had no business being over the entire video.
Appreciate your input. Might do a poll to see what others think. If most people want it gone, I'll drop it
The vcr filter is really bad man, otherwise enjoyed the video
Good video, but the VHS effect is pretty terrible. It actually ruins the beautiful artwork. There’s not a single shot of artwork without the ugly VHS flickering. Sometimes, it goes completely dark, whyyy…
Shame about the good writing, you should really reconsider this decision imho.
Yeah I'll be toning down the effect over the next couple of videos
Anyone who have read the books I suggest they do not watch the video. There are some major spoilers
Well it doesn't touch on major plot spoilers, but yeah if you're watching a lore video, expect to have lore aspects spoiled for you
@@RavensRants That's true. The origins of humans was a huge one for me
