Imagine being worried about morning breath when you are in the same clothes for weeks, maybe months without showering. Jackson to Seattle on a horse would take forever

They would smell like pure shyt and unless they got toilet paper be covered in shyt as well. At that point the morning breath might smell better than what they have going on.
People wont eat the end bread because its nasty but will eat a whore ass in real life

I mean tbf this is one point of this show that irks me. They actually look the complete opposite of this. Their clothes look fresh off the rack, Dina has a good makeup application and salon hair. For all intents and purposes they look like they are going on a trip to Zaras, not hell.

I don't really care if the actresses look exactly like the way they look in the games cause the actresses are killin it... I'd rather have great acting over some chick just cause she "looks the part"

The game fans are proving to be more annoying that GOT book readers.

I move that we ban them. :mjgrin:

People don’t like change :manny:

But honestly can you name a movie or show that was based on a game/book where the plot was changed for the better? It pretty much never works

So I get it :francis:

Brehs thinking a 60 hour game is gonna be converted into 8 hours of television with absolutely no changes is so hilarious because it’s quite literally not even possible
Even if the gameplay was 60 hours (which it isn't) a lot of that time is spent walking around and exploring. The actual story itself would be lucky to be 10 hours. However I do agree there are some elements that wouldn't work as well in converting it to a TV show. My issue is that there are big changes to the story that feuled motivations in game that are missing which changes different character motivations.

I'm not bytching about them too much myself and am interested in those changes pay off in the long run. The show has done a good enough job thus far that I trust them enough to see how it plays out before complaining but there are some legitimate gripes about the story changes so far.

Nah dawg... People already spent nearly 7 years making this show. They should be given creative freedom to change shyt. If you want a 1:1... Go play the game.

You got people pouring their short lives into making a great adaptation. They have hit way more often than they miss with the changes. A lot of changes may not just creative choices, but budget constraints or logistical shooting difficulties which forced change.

I already covered that and agree. Y'all acting like fans ain't allowed to criticize. From what I've seen nobody is going over the top shytting on the show or saying the show is horrible due to the changes (outside of the weirdos going so hard about casting). What's the point of the message board if not to express criticisms and praise about what we're watching. The story beats that are missing or different have nothing to do with the bolded, they are mainly just one on one conversations.
