  1. I'm glad they're (for now) still going ahead with them. Wealth is made too easily from hoarding assets and not from the value of your own labour, and this is a small step toward countering that.
  2. I really like the Warhammer games but there are heaps of features they've stripped out from the older games that would make me skeptical of a new Medieval game. The battles and world map are pretty great but the game is otherwise extremely simple. I'd also be wary of them trying to gouge the player base given that seems to be a recent trend. On the other hand, I heard Three Kingdoms was pretty good and was received pretty well prior to all its DLC being cancelled, although I never played it.
  3. Man, this and the Theon chapter should've been included in the current books, they're much better cliffhangers. Excited to see Euron wage his magic war. Stannis and Melisandre were like a taste of what someone could do with magic on their side, and now you've got a man with zero moral compunctions wielding anything he can get his hands on.
  4. Upon logging in today the format of the forum is completely changed. Looks incredibly basic and the colour scheme is blue/black/white rather than the usual orange/grey/white. Navigation is a lot harder and I'm unable to quote anyone. Don't know if this is known or unique to me.   eta: works fine now.
  5. In the absence of a rant thread: I just realized they didn't include Dany's violent diarrhea scene. So many GoT related gifs could have spawned from that.
  6. They said that Shireen gets burned and it's the culmination of the talk about kings blood, not that Stannis would order it. It literally cannot be taken 'straight out' of the books as when in the same scenario book-Stannis refused to burn some random unbeliever with whom he had zero connection, let alone his only child and heir.
  7. I didn't mind it. It's not as smooth as "we will march, and we will free Winterfell … or die in the attempt" but it's treason to include lines taken straight from the book, apparently, even if they're written perfect for tv.
  8. Yeah, agreed. I think I've withheld judgment about whether or not Dorne deserved to be in so far, but it's hard to see why the Riverlands stories wouldn't be a better choice. Jaime could stick to his storyline, Brienne to hers, Edmure+Blackfish and Beric+Thoros+Stoneheart could do their things rather than being disappeared for a few seasons (or else just cut), instead of a completely new continent being introduced along with a heap of bad characters that drag decent characters down with them.
  9. I think this is the second episode ever that I've given a rating above the average.
  10. Bastard claims are dubious. Roose could theoretically name his trueborn son his heir ahead of Ramsay, or he could, knowing Roose, just have Ramsay killed. It's just safer for Ramsay to be his only child.
  11. What on earth was that Dany scene? That's some season 3+4 Stannis treatment.
  12. Probably had more sex in one night than Stannis and Selyse did in seventeen years.
