Fun Fantasy series with immense worldbuilding and great characters? (lemm.ee)

I want to read a recent(ish) fun fantasy series with an eighteen year-old male protagonist, that has immense worldbuilding and greatly-written characters. Any suggestions?

I’ve been hard avoiding Kingkiller because I don’t want to become invested in what sounds like a truly spectacular first couple of books.

They are really good but they're not earth-shattering, you MUST read these.

If I knew then what I know now I would never have read them until the 3rd book is out.

Well, I was promised that the 3rd book will be out. The description said that Rothfuss had already completed the trilogy and its all in the matter of editing, so I was confident going in thinking the chance of a complete series in the next few years is high. I would never imagined that he would go George RR Martin's route, even Martin had wrote five books in the series.
