i use to think Witcher 3 had a good story but then i started watching Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones is a million times better then Witcher 3 story. It is a truly great adult fantasy story. Witcher 3 is child's play compared to Game of Thrones.

And game of thrones is child's play compared to the ASoIF, which is child's play compared to Lord of the rings and on and on. What you're doing is pointless.

GoT would be good if it actually had any of that shit anymore.

Song of ice and fire is babies first book. The writing is bloated and just bad.

His only crutch is the constant deaths of characters. It's shocking the first few times then you realise it's all he can do.

Not saying witcher story is good either
>>
>>340885843
To be fair to Martin he usually foreshadows any major death.
>>
>>340883584
>non juvenile fantasy
That's an oxymoron
>>
>>340885950
How is that fair?
>>
HoS was better than any GoT ep/storyline I've seen thus far
>>
>>340885843
nah mate. asoiaf is top tier fantasy. TV show is shit tho
>>
>>340886539
Great reasoning
>>
>>340886267
Some would imply that he employs the same sort of shock deaths you see in the walking dead. He can also do at least another thing in addition to having characters die, foreshadowing.
>>
>>340886881
>He can also do at least another thing in addition to having characters die, foreshadowing.
Rarely.

Even then, the OP posted that he watched GoT, and the show lacks any subtlety the books have had for a while now.

if you blame grrm for constant killing of characters for shock value, you haven't read the books.
>>
>Epic dark fantasy that will never finish within the author's lifetime.
Nope, not falling for it again after Berserk. I don't care how good it is, it's not worth it.
>>
When characters die in GoT it's usually their own damn fault though.

Because the Witcher wasn't written to be one deep, intricate story, it was written for an interesting world and characters to base several short stories on.
>>
>>340882198
Game of thrones while being a decent series is pretty average fantasy.
It is rather bland and unimaginative compared to something like Malazan book of the fallen or even the witcher books, who atleast had an interesting approach to fantasy.
>>
>>340882198
GoT has maximum of 3 decent early seasons. By the 4th its already utter normie trash.

Kingkiller chronicles. Books are massive and target adults.
>>

>It is rather bland and unimaginative
That's kind of the appeal. I think the series would be better as a whole with less of the fantasy shit entirely. It was better when it first started and everyone thought the supernatural elements were just legends and illusions.
>>
>>340892448
Supernatural is find as long as the powers and stuff are balanced imo. That's one thing I love about the Witcher, sure he's a bad ass but mages and higher vampires can kill him and he doesn't win all his fights in the books.
>>
High Budget Witcher TV series would be fucking GOAT and shit on GoT

There is a low budget one.

And any book is better then game of thrones. If you want a good story read a book.

Oh fuck that typo, I meant to say heavily, but you get the point.
