I like the game.
Same.
I supported Stannis even after he burned his daughter as a sacrifice to R'hllor.

Show:
- Ramsay is my favorite villain, with Joffrey in second place.

Many characters don't look or act, or both like they should and do in the books, Euron is one example
the game sucks dick
The rpg? I totally agree.
What are you talking about? Our choices mattered alot more then games such as S1 Walking Dead and TWAU. It's choices and consequences go well just like the ones in MCSM, Tales from the Borderlands, and The Walking Dead S2.
I don't even know how is that possible that more people chose Duncan over Royland. plus I hate Daenerys too (brofist)
People like being diplomatic and peaceful, I guess.
yeah, propably that's the thing
Hmmm, to me that would be that I like Daenerys.
To outsiders, she put up a fierce persona like a Dragon. To enemies she is completely ruthless. However if you are her allies, expect that you will be treated well and fairly. If you are her people/subjects, she will be kind and just. If you are close to her, like a close friend, she will treat you like family and show a great deal of warmth.
People tend to see her negative side, but I can see her positives too.
The RPG is closer to the books than any other game or the TV series, the team had collaborated with GRRM longer and better, even the throne room is more like the canon description, and the devs also aided a lot in the CK2 GoT mod
Jon Snow does know something; Arya Stark is on her way to find a brutal end, she is as doomed as the ones she aspires to kill.
With Love, Lady Chusets.
I wouldn't say choices in TWD S2 mattered much.
That is true. But I put it there just because I thought it was more effective then S1. But hey at least the endings count(hopefully for S3).
for me she's just bad at rulling and sometimes she's just a very dumb person, but, yeah sometimes she's good character.
Like Hizdar, unnamed-burnt-to-crisp-master, Quentyn Martell and Jorah?
Like the whine-seller's daughters tortured on her orders or the fact that slavery didn't really end?
(ps: you're absolutely right to like her, no problem with that. I clarify this cause you know, sometimes people takes the critics about their characters too personnally)
Well, I like to argue that Daenerys never saw Hizdar as a friend or ally. She marries him because she needed to stabilize Meereen. And she has good reason to be angry at Jorah, he kept his secrets and betrayed her once by spying against her. Although he become very loyal later, that still doesn't change the fact that he did betray her.
I am not too sure about the wineseller's daughter, can't remember that one.
And I was mostly talking about TV-Daenerys. Her book counterpart...I have more mixed feelings about her.
But on the same time he saved her life by killing the assassin and kept to be faithful to her since that day. While she seems to get along with Varys, who's the one who ordered Jorah to spy/kill her. I'm not sure if it's the character's fault or the writers to blame for this though.
I mixed books and show, I wasn't sure which media you knew Daenerys from.
Oddly enough, I prefer the book's counterpart compared to the show's version. Why, I couldn't explain precisely. Maybe because she's more flawed (more believable) and still young.
It was sarcasm, mate.
I think Daenerys will be mad like her father and she wont take the Iron Throne.
I think that season 5 is better than season 6.
Ethan was the greatest protagonist any TTG ever had, it doesn't seem like something a lot of people agree with. But it's true. He was on the road to be well-developed and seeing some real hard choices for a young 12-14 year old lord to make. But no, let's have cheap deaths for pure shock value instead! I love Rodrik, but dammit I'd rather have Ethan as a POV than him.
Aye...While Rodrik managed to fill the void that Ethan left, for me at least. I can never forget or feel the huge waste of potential that Ethan's story could have been.
I agree that Daenerys can't rule but I wouldn't say she's dumb.
Yeah, Ethan had loads of potential but I still feel like his death did great things for the story.
well she's not dumb, but sometimes she's making bad decisions and poor choices, that's what I meant.
Well, nicer words would be inexperience and naive.
Why was Jon Snow crowed King In The North? It doesn't make any sense. Sansa is the heir to Winterfell and the rightful ruler. She has more claim than her half brother. She saved Jon Snow and his army from getting killed from Ramsey Bolton.
It would have made sense if David Benioff and D. B. Weiss went with Robb's will. In Robb's will he legitimizes Jon Snow and names him his heir.
I don't know , but its bad writing.
I don't know. By law, it should have been Sansa. But Jon has proven to be a great fighter and Northmen greatly value strength. And Jon has a great reputation in the North for his prowess. And there is also to consider about the sexist society in Westeros.
What reputation does Sansa have? She was held captive in King's Landing, betrothed to Joffery then married to Tyrion, both who are considered a great enemy to the Northmen. Then she got married to the mad and dreaded Ramsay Snow, who loves flaying people.
Rumors and exaggerations of the Battle of the Bastards would spread. They would say that Ned Stark's bastard son is reclaimed Winterfell and Stark would make the North strong and just again. They would say that the Arryn Army came to the Stark's hour of need due to the strong and father-son relationship between Ned and Jon Arryn. They would say that Jon defeated Ramsay in an epic single combat. But they will not mention or barely mention Sansa.
Comparing Jon's and Sansa's reputation. Jon's looks stellar and he is a hero. Just like Robb before him, Jon did things that many would agree earn him his kingship. Northmen approve accomplishment and many survivor would speak first-hand of what Jon did.
Sorry for the long post, but I just wanted to give my points across why I believe the Northern lords chose Jon over Sansa.
Great response , but I don't think Jon has a great reputation and here is why:
He's a bastard and not Ned stark's true born son. Many northerns think that Jon's mother is a whore.
He's a night's watch deserter Yes, he is. Doesn't matter if he died and "technically" fulfilled his oath. There's no reason for anyone to believe that he was brought back from the dead, all of the northerns don't believe in R'hllor magic. Even if they believed in R'hllor Magic Jon snow is still an oathbreaker. He's exploiting a dubious loophole in the letter of the oath (it also contains language like "all nights to come") while clearly violating its spirit. You're not supposed to leave the Watch.
He brought Wildlings south, and intends to settle them on Northern lands.Northerners hate Wildlings. The Umbers went to war over them . Lord Glover refused to fight alongside them, and was disgusted when he learned that "the rumors" about Jon were true. Even Ramsey's letter accused Jon of betraying his own kind by bringing them south, and other lords are likely to feel the same way.
I don't hate Jon he's my favorite character, but I don't think he is the rightful ruler of the north Sansa Is.
Jon is a Targaryn. He has the most legit claim cause he's the last male Targaryn. Jon Targaryn- First of his name-King of the Andals and the first men-Ruler of the seven kingdoms and protector of the realm.
