This is the kernel of our disagreement. I separate writing from worldbuilding. You do too, obviously, else you wouldn't have listed them separately, but I divorce the two almost entirely. It's why I maintain that Tolkein is a great worldbuilder, even if his presentation and communication of that world are disastrously bad (in my opinion, obviously). Show v. Tell to me has little to do with worldbuilding proper. It appears we'll have to agree to disagree on this point.

As for Quinn, I guess I've thrown out the good with the bad, because I'm blanking on that name too!

I'm fine with disagreeing on these points, yes.

Skip to about 3:15. He's the ruthless executive turian who only complete dicks betray.
