Both Feast and Dance are a lot better when read together, as a single narrative. I tried it. If you either haven't read them yet or want to re-read them, try this order.
-
It's a problem with the Stark family in the show, as well. It stopped bothering me a long time ago.
-
I'd say the Stark parallels are close enough with the Forresters without giving the guy who goes to join the Night's Watch a mysterious parentage, as well.
-
It seems to be pretty much fan consensus that Storm of Swords is the best, while Feast for Crows and Dance with Dragons are both...controversial.
-
My chief complaint about the QTEs isn't that they're hard. They really, really aren't. My chief complaint is that they're an extremely transparent way to try and pretend the game is something more than a visual novel. They can be used to enhance …

Obviously. But with more elaborate titles, you could tell at a glance that a Duke is more to be feared than a Baron, for example. As it stands, you'd have to learn more about who the Lord is before you could gauge how much of a threat they are. I…

The Forresters are the vassals of the Glovers, who are in turn vassals of the Starks, who rule over the North, which has fewer people than any other kingdom. In other words, they're the vassals of a vassal in the least populated kingdom in Westeros.…

If it helps, you can just say that his sentinel was with him at the Twins and died along with him during the Red Wedding.
-
He won me completely with just a few sentences. Stannis: If not for my Hand, I might not have come at all. Lord Seaworth is a man of humble birth, but he reminded me of my duty, when all I could think of was my rights. I had the cart before the h…

He got lucky. Real lucky.
-
I'm not sure if you've noticed yet, but Telltale doesn't seem to care much about who can realistically survive what. TWD Season 2 featured a little girl dropping into a frozen lake and then being shot and basically shrugging it off as if it never ha…

Things would be so much easier if we knew what actually happens to Stannis and his army. Damn you GRRM! Why must you write so damned slow!?
-
It actually does make me wonder how far Roose would have let Ramsay go in mistreating Talia. On the one hand, she's a highborn hostage, so the whole 'chase her through the woods, rape her, flay her and take her skin back to the Dreadfort' routine wo…
-
If Ramsay doesn't die before the end of the series, I'll be absolutely stunned. It would be the most spectacular Karma Houdini act in the history of fiction.
-
...do you have a full understanding of how Ramsay treats female captives when you say that? Or are you speaking strictly from what you've seen in-game?
-
Nope.
-
A quick excerpt from DwD of a conversation between Roose Bolton and his bastard son: Roose: By the king's decree you are now a Bolton. Try and act like one. Tales are told of you, Ramsay. I hear them everywhere. People fear you. Ramsay: Good. …
-
In keeping with movie and television tradition, Ramsay is played by someone a lot more attractive than his book description would merit. Book Ramsay is more like this: Still find him sexy?
-
If it's any consolation, for all SoIaF has a reputation for killing heroes, the most villainous characters routinely have the most horrendous deaths. Viserys Targaryen, Vargo Hoat, Gregor Clegane, Amory Lorch, Joffrey so-called Baratheon and so fort…

The differences between the show and the books: * Characters are usually more morally ambiguous in the books. Tyrion, for example, is infamous for having been changed into a full-fledged hero in the show. In the books, he's one of the poster bo…
-
I want to play as Talia. I also want to play as Rodrik. If we end up playing only one of those two, however, I'm pretty sure it's going to be the latter.
-
Nah, by the time of the Red Wedding the Starks had lost. They weren't merely fighting Lannister forces, but the armies of the Tyrells as well. The attack on Casterly Rock was a show only thing, but even within the show it would almost certainly have…
-
I remember Peter Dinklage describing Tyrion as the 'good bad guy, or the bad good guy' in a season 1 commentary. That no longer describes TV Tyrion, but I think it sums up book Tyrion pretty well. He's not that bad a guy, in many respects, especiall…
-
The start of the game basically ruins the biggest spoiler of Season 3, so at least finish that Season if you care about spoilers.
-
Right, but can you imagine TV Tyrion even bluffing about something like that? Admittedly, it would come across as much harsher on TV because we wouldn't be able to read his thoughts and know without a doubt that he's mainly bluffing, but he is also …
-
I think they're a whole lot different. Book Tyrion has a man who was trying to blackmail him murdered and stewed. He uses Cersei's fear of him to threaten to beat and rape Tommen if the whore she has taken captive suffers the same. He has far fewer …
-
The thing is the problem has been getting worse, not better, despite Telltale presumably having more money due to the success of TWD. The 'so and so will remember that' messages in TWD Season 1 in some cases actually seemed to be important and effec…
-
At the time the game is taking place, Tyrion is still hooked up with Shae and in an unconsummated 'marriage' with Sansa. His uglier side has been whitewashed out of existence in the TV show, so he certainly wouldn't use sexual extortion in the TV co…
-
Because it's voice acting, and not every normal actor transitions well to voice acting.

Wow. Talk about phoning it in.
