  2. Tyrion is such an idiot with Shae in book 2. GRRM much have had some bad experiences with women, she is obviously pretending to love him, lol. Show Shae seems to be different. Shagga in the books has way more content. It should have made it to the show, he's funny!

  4. This is pretty surprising. I thought the later Arya content was a show thing. Is it the same in the books (that Jaime is destined to )
  5. @Enrico_sw TBH China is a weird mix of communism, fascism, and hyper capitalism. Russia is a weird mix of communism, fascism, democracy, and crony capitalism. and US is now a weird mix of democracy, socialism, crony capitalism and regular capitalism.
  6. From what I heard a big reason why CDPR messed with Cyperpunk is that they created their own proprietary engine, which has serious failings. Now they are using someone else's. I really hope that they bring in the same voice actors. It will be cool to see a more serious Triss and Shani romance.
  7. The main romance option in Witcher 1 is Triss or Shani No Yennefer, no Ciri. Also there are 20-25 plus minor romances. This game has the most romances out of the trilogy. Vesemir, Lambert, Eskel and Kaer morhen are there too!
  8. Olivia Cooke's character (adult Alicent) was rather obnoxious. Just very neurotic all the time and one-note. It would have been better if they made her character more multi-faceted and easier to watch. Daemon

  10. Thanks. I will read this chapter after I finish the books. How about Arya Stark? The Arya content in Books 1-2 is very impressive. The general theme also reminds me of Ciri from the Witcher books. I wonder now if it's a well established fantasy trope (tomgirl that gets a long series of traumatic situations and brutalization while being on the run and eventually develops into a skillful fighter)
  11. This is a good scene in the show but the book version (Clash of Kings) is much longer and very well written. It efficiently reveals a lot about the characters and it would have been cool to see a complete version in the show. Is the pre-published Theon chapter referring to the Winds of Winter? The Theon content in Clash of Kings is excellent and much more extensive than what we got in the show. I look forward to completing the rest of the series. Given my current listening habits I should be able to finish 2-5 within 3 1/2 months. Is Jaime /Brienne and Cersei similar to what happens in the show?
  12. The face model for Rose could pass for Freya's sister.
