    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    This has been my issue with these last two seasons as well. The major plot points in of themselves are not bad at all, and thus the outcomes. It's HOW they get to those that is completely rushed or just flat ass dumb. The decision to keep the two major plot lines running at the same time was...

    Survivor

    Yeah this season wasn't terrible but it wasn't great either, and I absolutely despise the whole redemption isle thing no matter what label you put on it. Completely ruins the game for me. I don't mind it as bad in Big Brother because A: it's on every season and B: it's pretty unintrusive for...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Re: Dany I am not seeing her as a villain in the classical sense. She's not akin to Cersei at all. However, she is not one to be fucked with, as her scorn knows no bounds. I know I'm repeating what has been said, but I'm trying a different angle with it so bear with me. She goes into the...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    This has been my sentiments since last season. I actually liked (loved) the sixth season and I thought it did a good job of teeing everything up to finally land the plane. Then they just shit the bed and went crazy spastic on the story. And just as you said, this is due to them trying to...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The only 10/10 ending for me is if Bronn gets his fookin' castle by sitting on the iron fookin throne in the end. I really hope he goes fuck all ya all, you don't pay shit.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Oh I didn't need Jon to land the killing blow. In fact I rather enjoyed Arya and the way she did it. However, I was bummed he didn't get a few licks in with his sword.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I agree that the north of the wall was awful, and yes it was a billion times worse. However the impact of it was minimized by the fact that it was just another chapter. The long night was the finale of this story arc. And while I didn't think it was awful, it was just a meh payoff. It's like...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I would bet money that is why they did it. It still sucked though. The Walking Dead has a fraction of the budget this show has and still can convey a massive herd of zombies pretty effectively, and that's all they really needed to do was a couple far shots of that, then focus on just close ups...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Battle itself was epic as hell. However, the meat of the situation was a pretty big let down. Again, par for the course on this show. They absolutely seek out ways to make endings flat as fuck, and this one took the cake. I don't particularly have a problem with Arya landing the killing...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Right but this is a great example of how the show is completely different from the books as that is not what was explained in the show... at all. Legit the black haired girl and Bran sat down with the Child of the Forest and what I said was the story she told (in a flashback).

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Ok kind of explains it then. See I'm a show only pleb. I read the first book after seeing the major discussions on it on this board's past lives (think around 2009 not sure), but I shelved it once I dug deeper and saw that it was a 6 or 7 book series and they only had 4 out. Well, 10 years...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Right I just took it as one of those unintended consequences lessons. Yup they meant for him to only take out A, but motherfucker had different ideas and went scorched earth and they could do fuck all to really stop him. Hell even if he is taken down again this time, it sounds like it's a...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Your right on the purpose but they were getting their ass kicked by the first men, so they went out and turned one into a lich king... er Ice Zombie as a weapon to fight back and the weapon was TOO powerful. His purpose is a weapon... to destroy men. And not just merely kill them all but to...

    Assassin's Creed Odyssey (Greece)

    Right they already have most of any explanation they want already baked in with the whole super human race thing as that was kind of their angle from the beginning. This is really a problem with all games trying to be historically accurate and be expansive. Hell Nioh even suffered a bit from...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    What would be a satisfying ending then? I don't really NEED a happy ending but I definitely want an ending either way, but would be ok if Jon came out on top.

    Assassin's Creed Odyssey (Greece)

    I personally think if they continue doing this large open world RPGs for Assassin's Creed that they take a page from Nioh's handling of a historic setting. Mix in the mythology much more profoundly. The problem with having worlds this large is simply the fact that there are only so many ways...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    They actually did in season 6 when Bran and those kids got to the 3 eyed Ravens hideout. The brownie things told Bran how they created the night king and why. He was a weapon to fight the men they were at war with.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I don't care if they put the Hound on the throne or hell even the necro hand of Cersei's...hell even having the night king win out would be ok. But not having some kind of resolution would be lame as fuck.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I agree and I personally think it'd be dumb as hell to do so. 8 seasons of building up to this moment and boom he dies, and probably in the most anti climatic way ever. But sadly they kind of have a knack for doing just that at times, so I'm just afraid that's exactly what we will get.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    And I get that. I'm trying to not to frame this as some giant SJW conspiracy, but I really think the underlying theme this entire show is the strength of women. All of the major female characters have have been through a total shit storm to get where they are, and I frankly just got this vibe...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Honestly, I think this is where I'm at too. I think Jon dies being stoic and sacrificing himself for the greater good. Then Danny, Sansa, and Cersei duke it out... Hell, maybe Sansa and Cersei ultimately make a deal to take out Danny so the Anti Mary Sue wins the war and lets the North keep...

    Playstation 5

    If they handle backwards compatibility like a PC or tablet where the OS is in essence identical, and if they put in a boost mode like they did with pro, I think that will be worth the price alone. Our oldest PS4 is a launch model so I am getting the 5 and the son will inherit the pro regardless...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    For me that wore it's welcome after season 3. It just had all this build up only for the pay off to be a major case of blue balls. I don't mind tragedy and it worked well. Yep, I loved Rob Stark to pieces, but the Red Wedding was still amazing and it was a satisfying end, although very sad...

    I think Baelish being a faceless one would have been awesome... if he didn't get his throat slit in front of God and everybody. But if they do something like that now, it'd be retarded, they should have done something off camera if they were going this route. And I don't know about anybody...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It is the same exact way for me. She constantly barks and yells if I were off the path she thinks I should take. Hell I refuse to drive because she is the worst back seat driver. Yet the few times my long ass fuse depleted and I snap, it's the end of the world.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    It's really not. They are the sweetest people and it really wasn't an issue until my wife's sister married a legit gold digger who has used almost every cent that has been dolled out so far to buy himself fancy trucks and other redneck toys. I personally don't care it's my children's future...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    @Hoss No wife opened a catering business and it's a simple 2 car attached garage. Took out the door (single wide enough for 2 cars kind of door), built a wall in it's place with two windows and a french door. It was already finished, but we took out the drywall and installed food grade...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    The other day was probably one of my biggest WTF moments in 13 years of marriage. We had our first really warm day of the year, and it was in the 80s. I come home and enter into our kitchen (used to be the garage before the remodel) and went upstairs into the living room. It was hot in there...

    Not only slaughtered but eaten too, kid was totally justified in his hatred for sure. However, it was a dose of stark reality, the need to ally with the wildlings outnumbered the desire to drive them back. And so, he hung. I actually liked Littlefinger's death. The dude went from a slimy ass...

    The Video Thread

    The way they teach math now is stupid. In fact, it's so stupid, that they won't even send any work home, and they tell the kids it's because we parents don't know the new ways. I get the statement about how the CC way helps ease them into higher math thinking but honestly it was cool when it...

    Oddly enough my favorite streamer Fightin Cowboy uses that and I came to the same thought. Tried it last night on snow dragon in Coral Highlands, and it went really well and it was my first hunt with them so I was still getting the hang of how to fully do the builder. I really think I'm going...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Only reason why I theorize ASoIaF is simply because I just can't imagine someone as awarded as GRRM who is king in both Literature and Screen would want to "stoop" to writing a video game story/lore from scratch. It's an absurd position to hold, but dude won't even use a modern computer to...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    It's confusing because they purposefully leave whole chunks of the lore out unexplained. They do this on purpose to spurn debate and discussion. Not saying it's great, because frankly as much as I loved it, and loved researching it, in the end Bloodborne did not 100% add up and it kind of...

    Bioware's "Anthem"

    Now that I finally "got" Monster Hunter and am playing it non stop now, I agree. Capcom is going to be a monster next gen building off their huge successes this gen where they laid the groundwork. I also like where Capcom is going: release one "main" game and then expand on it over the gen...
