this show is trying to do the political intrigue that other shows do well and it's just failing. Less talking more fighting please.

wait what. and you people have problem with the Oberyn poisoned Tywin "theory" which i'm pretty sure GRRM already confirmed a long time ago at a con or something (saw some youtube video with him pretty much stating this was a fact). Ok there's passages that hint that Aerys may have lusted...

IIRC Tyrion decided half way through the trial that it was clearly going against him and demanded a trial by combat. Knowing that cersei would choose the mountain as her champion, Oberyn volunteered to by Tyrion's champion. By this point he had already accomplished his mission of poisoning...

Lannisters? Which lannisters are those? The only lannister's left to hate (cersei) has her complete downfall paraded about you in book 4 and it has nothing to do with LS. LS exists solely as vengeance against the Frey's, and basically dissolves the bwob and what it stood for to achieve it...

double post wtf

yeah except no. The time to show all of that would have been throughout season 2 and 3 while they were fighting throughout the riverlands. Their reason for excluding it is reasonable. They were forced to recast the mountain at the last minute and the guy they got to replace the mountain...

with ~2500 pages left to adapt into about 10-14 hour long episodes I don't see why anyone would choose to add pointless fluff to justify bookreader lipservice by adding a minor character.

Since they filmed this season of GoT last summer I don't think her current filming schedule matters much. If anything, if she wraps up shooting of 24 within a few months, and they do decide to include her, she can film her 1 episode for next season in a few months when they start filming season...

So how many storylines can they wrap up book 3 on and start on 4/5? The more 4/5 stuff they can start this season the less rushed (or less cut) next season will seem as they've got a lot of written words to convert into season 5 (books 4/5). Bran's story being completely isolated they can...

entirely possible that Oyrs the First was a king in the TV series, since it's an adaptation of the books with many, many changes and not a literal translation.

I feel that episode is just a build up episode for manmade global warming or some other highly politicized, scientifically shaky topic.

While I like to read this thread I try to stay out of it as much as possible. You may consider this pussy shit but it's a story about the publication of the books, not the actual stories contained within them so hopefully it will clear up the matter. The current season being aired is the...

dipshit? lol fgt. I stated lady stoneheart wasn't essential plot wise. She isn't. You claimed I hadn't read the books because I said she doesn't have any POV chapters, you were obviously mistaken, and I accept this post as a further apology on your behalf for your ignorance.

I'll take that as your apology and recognition that you did not read the books.

Them adding frey's to people they kill doesn't require much after the RW. with or without LS it's simple for the TV show to justify having them hunt down freys. And where are you getting that the bwob is likely to capture riverrun in the next book? Some teaser chapters I haven't seen?

Did you? Tell me how many POV chapters lady stone heart has. not really. She's mentioned and referenced throughout the later half of the book, but really the BWOB pretty much dissolves when she is resurrected and what few follow her just go about hanging a few freys. She doesn't do anything...

Not sure if they are going to include it or not, I doubt it tbh, but it's not really that big a deal if they don't. In fact it's probably better for the TV story that they don't. Does it serve the TV series to have zombie cat's body appear in 1 or 2 scenes? She's not a POV character, she's...

-edited out-

um this is the no spoiler thread right? so why did someone post the link that spoils who and how they killed Joffrey? and why are you guys still debating it for 3 more pages when the answer has already been spoiled? you guys are that hardcore?

IIRC, unlike the TV show, Mel never meets or hears about Thoros/Beric/BwoB, or learns about the kiss of life, or that resurrection is possible. It's possible that she will say the funeral rites as Thoros did and it happens, by coincidence, as it did with Beric, but I doubt it.

GRRM is trolling all of y'all. Jon is dead, dead. not coming back. This story is basically the same as star wars, had they went the other way. obiwan "that boy was our only hope" yoda "no, there is another" Meera Reed, aka Jon Snow's twin sister, raised by howland reed as his own...

please god no. If I could stab you in the face over the internet I would. please kindly die in a fire irl faggot and stop your crying.

Not exactly sure it's a Winds of Winter spoilerper se. Either GRRM is much more diligently writing winds than he's lead us to believe with his tours and promotions and other things he's been working on, decided to include a throwback bit in to a minor scene he wrote 16 years and 4 novels ago...

um what? in the preview chapter Mercy she's practicing her mummer's stuff/faceless man act and is dressed up in makeup and a wig. she seduces Raff, takes him back to her Apt to have sex with him, and in the middle of undoing his trousers she slits his femoral artery and is like "oh shit...

another thing, this thread is getting annoying. The book and the show are different things. One is based on the other. All this silly nitpicking about this scene or that scene making it into the show is retarded. Why would Loras and Jaime have that scene in the context of this show? Why...

That was rast the sweetling or however you spell his name, in Winds, not polliver. polliver dies in the inn and arya gets needle back, it just happens much later on in the book than it did on the show. Also for the 2+ pages of arguing about dany/barristan/jorah shit, they already explained...

that season finale (it was the finale, btw) was um.. what. I guess it does the job in that it makes me want to see how the story continues. but what the fuck

50k subs? lol if this game is ever made which is optimistic i'm thinking more a tale in the desert niche level, ie 1k-5k subs, all of which are backers who have jboots and horseys and whatever else crap they're hawking now.

oh man AC2. Basically if you wanna see what WoW was based on then feel free to play this game, because every new and interesting idea that wow at release had was ripped directly from AC2. Its too bad that they didn't just cut/paste the AC2 classes into WoW cus they were awesomer. tactician...

Neverwinter is a testament to just how far fun and engaging combat mechanics can take an otherwise steaming pile of Freemium McMMO shit. Still playing daily and its been what, almost 10 months. The game can get grindy farming the end dungeon over and over and over again for very good (no...

edit: quoting myself as I was going to edit the original post but forum logged me off Above all things the truth of that statement should serve as a cautionary tale to anyone making or funding MMOs. Instead we have zenimax (TESO) saying "ready or not, april bitches!". I look back at that...

Was going to ask if this was a Vanguard jab but it's really the tale of every MMO not named WoW.

Really? there's tons of PS4's available here everywhere. Anybody need one? I'm going to ebay the fuck out of these things.

The best way to play skyrim:

There is no tag and cast system. The direct heal works by pointing your reticle at the player and casting your heal. nearly all healing is from Astral Seal or Astral Shield though.

Think you can play it with a controller but not sure why you would want to. If all you do is solo mini-dungeons and quests and shit then yeah I guess. Playing this with a controller is like wanting to play a pc fps with a controller. You're just intentionally handicapping yourself in one of...

carebear spotted. Everything you just said is true only for you and vagina's like you.

You have to pay $20 bucks to CCP to transfer a character to someone else's account. Last I checked, you still had to make a forum post in the wts character forum indicating it is a private sale, so that there is a record that the character changed owners. Now if someone you knew paid you...

I'm looking at screenshots from ARR which is the beta that I played and yeah, they're nothing to write home about. ESO had better graphics. I played both games at absolute max settings. I'm talking landscape, lighting, shadows, etc. I'm not a fan of the art style of either game btw...
