    Gets shut down with a perfect counter-argument, pretends like it doesn't matter.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yeah I know who Jon Snow probably is. My point was that all Robb knows is that his dad broke his wedding vows to get some strange while he was off rebelling against the mad king.

    Everything was rebalanced in the DS remake, but unless you're running from every random encounter, you should be high enough level to breeze through the demon wall. It's a joke fight by the standards of the DS remake, especially considering how fucking hard many of the other boss fights became...

    Phil Davis against Lyoto Machida at UFC 163. Pretty big opportunity for Davis here, although I think I'd pick Machida. Wonder how long he can stay ranked #1 without being given another title shot.

    Maybe he would have if he'd been the one talking to Stannis instead of his mother.

    The PUSSY SHIT spoiler discussion thread

    Stannis lost a battle, his forces aren't in shambles. Hell if you want to get technical, House Baratheon sits the Iron Throne. And no, nobody fucking thinks a ruler needs to be a valiant knight on a noble steed. There is nothing valiant about Tywin, he's a fiendish bastard and people love him...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Uh, if the Starks still had Jaime prisoner, Tywin wouldn't have have been willing to risk his heir being killed, which means the Freys and Boltons would have had nothing to gain by stabbing Robb in the back.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Considering that part of Ned's agreement to confess was an agreement to clemency and being banished to the wall instead of executed? Yeah, Joffrey is an inbred retard who royally fucked up the plan. Also I have no idea why you are responding to the wrong post in the wrong thread.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Oh, I don't know, having Ned Stark publicly executed, inciting the entire north to rise in rebellion, seems to be a helluva lot fucking dumber than Rob marrying that chick, so yeah Joffrey unquestionably wins the biggest dumbfuck to be called a king award. I love Jaime, Tyrion, and Tywin, but...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Five. Describing Sansa as a 'very angry Stark' is kind of funny though. In fact, describing Sansa as a Stark at all is downright hilarious. Also, Rickon is what, 8 years old?

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    There's a happy medium somewhere in between the boring stagnation of a series where every single protagonist is a superhero that never dies, and the pointless chaos of a series where it feels like there is no point getting invested in any major character because the only way the author knows how...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well they probably decided on the changes to the red wedding all the way back then, so my guess is they decided it would be easier to have her be a nobody if they were going to kill her at the wedding.

    If by kick ass you mean got even worse? Only GRRM could take getting initiated into a brotherhood of face-changing assassins and make it boring as hell.

    Cause the Greyjoys give no fucks? They don't care who the fucking king is as long as they aren't bending a knee to him.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    You mean aside from a string of military victories that had Tywin concerned enough to arrange the wedding instead of continuing to try to beat him in the field.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Eh, the extra manufactured shock value from changing the scene so that Robb's wife is both there and pregnant just so you can graphically stab her in the stomach is more than a little over the top. Feels like I'm watching WWF during the 90s with Kane and Undertaker shooting lightning bolts at...

    You'll just have to make do with Arya. Because she's the Stark that Westeros deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well if the TV series is different enough that the decision to go to the wedding doesn't seem as mind-blowingly stupid in the show as it does in the book, I'll stop complaining about it.

    Warhammer 40,000 Novels

    I own the Last Chancers omnibus. I thought the first one was fantastic and did a good job capturing the feel of a penal regiment in 40k, the second one was ok, but the third one was just so nonsensically stupid that it ruined the trilogy for me.

    Oh god, if the first one didn't bomb hard enough to rule out any possibility of them trying to do 2 more, my fucking head will explode.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I don't own the book, and I've only read it once, which was a year or two ago, but I don't remember them ever being ready to march on Casterly Rock, although I suppose the threat of that could have been what finally pushed Tywin to take the drastic step that he did in arranging the wedding. I...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well, Robb's wife dying at the wedding would be a pretty major departure from the books if GRRM hadn't gone out of his way to go 'BY THE WAY SHE AINT PREGNANT ROBB AINT GOT NO HEIR' in book 4. I honestly think the series is the big chance for him to go back and change things so that they troll...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    IIRC he didn't need the Frey army so much as he needed to cross back over the Trident, but either way he needed to get back on good terms with Walder Frey. But when a situation looks like a trap, and your fucking dire wolf is warning you that it's a trap, I'm sure the best thing to do is just go...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Yeah, it's a common theme in fantasy settings, so I assume it has it's basis in one or more cultures in real life. It's also profoundly stupid and makes no sense any time any character relies on it to the extent that Robb did.
  28. Gavinmad

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    What in the fuck? I haven't watched the episode, but that's a pretty major departure from the books, when his wife wasn't even at the wedding because it would have been a huge insult to the Freys for her to be present.

    It's just shit awful writing, and it's 10x worse in the book because it's OBVIOUS AS FUCK that bad things are about to go down but Robb is just like HERP DERP LETS GO DUDES

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    With Sansa, Bran, and Rickon all missing or presumed dead, Arya is the only surviving Stark. There is probably no more valuable a hostage in all of Westeros.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Behold, the pivotal moment in the book series that made me realize that GRRM was a mediocre fantasy author who relied entirely on shock value to generate reader interest. It's all downhill from here. Thanks for the wedding crashers pic tho, im gonna go troll people on fb with that.

    false *edit* Unless you're retarded and counting GFWL, but even if you were, that's not the same as EA requiring you to use their shitty version of steam AND individually register your games on different websites of theirs.

    What a load of bullshit. The only game I *ever* had to do anything with a website on after purchasing on steam was L.A. Noire, and I'm pretty sure that was optional. Origin is garbage.

    C.S. Goto is definitely the worst author in the entire Black Library, although Henry Zhou is a strong contender. Dan Abnett and Graham McNeill are the two heavyweight authors in the Black Library, Aaron Dembski-Bowden is a rising star. Honestly, the only authors you really need to avoid are...

    Except for the fact that you got to the marsh cave at level 4-5 and needed to be 8-9 to have a good chance of clearing it. No option other than some hardcore grinding.
