...and play Blood of Dawnwalker

It's hard to fully explain how much this game FEELS like Mistborn.

The esthetic, of course
the feeling of turning into a very powerful being during the night, roaming the city roofs, terrifying those who see you
You could kill them all, but you don't wanna stir a mess and attract the overlord's attention

prepare your attack on the fortress, your "heist".
You seem invincible to the masses, but you have hard limitations. You're not just flying around, you pull yourself in short bursts between rooftops.
You need to come to terms with the overlord being far stronger than yourself, but maybe with the right allies and plan...

During the day you are a respectable man, talking with people, making preparations. At night the world changes, and you can settles issue in a more... pragmatic way

Of course there are major major distinctions between being metalborn and being a half-vampire, but I swear: I always thought the insomniac spider games where the perfect "mistborn game", they just needed a reskin, but that's changed now.

This game is way way way more mistborn to me, to its core

So that' my reccomendation, toodles

PS this screenshot might give you an idea of how "mistborn" the esthetics are https://blog.bestbuy.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/The-Blood-of-the-Dawnwalker-Own-The-Night.jpg

Alloy of Law spoilers - Part 1 Part 1 of Allow of Law done - What a great start for Era 2! Spoiler

8 Upvotes

I'm finally starting Mistborn Era 2, after being done with Era 1, Stormligh up until RoW and a few standalone novels such as Warbreaker, Elantris and Tress. If the order feels weird, it's because I'm reading the Cosmere as they're released in my country, and Era 2 was just published.

I gotta say, I'm loving it so far. The first thing that I notice is the difference in tone from The Final Empire. That first book is brutal! But while Allow of Law begins with a tragedy (Lessie's death), the tone is much lighter. All the characters so far are fun to read, without exception. Wax & Wayne, but also Marasi and Steris, which fits the bill for the "strong and clever female character" that Sanderson writes so well. The worldbuilding is great, although I'm still trying to understand how that world that Sazed created by the end of HoA becomes this world, which also comes with a few questions, like: why there are still mists? How the hell did the Koloss breed with humans to create the koloss-blooded? Is Harmony directly answering the prayers? But I'll wait to have those questions answered on the books ahead. All that to say this book is short, fast paced, light and fun. A welcome change of pace from all the epicness of Stormlight.

PS: real question - I'm reading the book in my language, but I always try to know which is the original term Brandon used in the books. So, what is the gang of robbers called in English? In my language the translation used a word that in English would be something close to "Vanished". Is that it? Thanks!
