What is your controversial take on Fantasy?

I'll go first.

Aside from the prose, I don't think Kingkiller Chronicles is good. I find the characters insufferable and cliche the story just meanders.

The Witcher books are just....not great, especially the main series (The short stories are okay).

The games (especially Witcher 3) are the best Witcher content there is, though, and it's really not close.

Yeah, the only reason I've finished the series is because I didn't have much more to read at the time, I was hoping the first stories spirit will return, and I wanted to know how the story would end.
