@the_reunion: Them not filming people travelling is not my problem, it's the fact that they seem to travel too quickly without acknowledging geography.
Gendry running all the way back to the wall, sending a raven and Dany arriving to help within the span of time of what seems like one night or the time it takes water to refreeze is ridiculous.
Jon travelling to Dragonstone (which is near Kings Landing) all the way from the North takes a month or so if basing on King Robert's journey. Jon then travels all the way back to the wall which should take another month - that's at least 2 month the White Walkers are just chilling whilst ignoring the time it takes to mine dragonglass. Would be ironic though if the only way for the white walkers to get past the wall is to have a Dragon burn it.
Yes I know she was trained to be a faceless man, but her training entailed her washing people and floors and getting smacked around whilst blind. Please do tell when they taught her to actually sneak, spy and lockpick like a pro. One would have to read the books of her training to see this possibility but it is not shown on the show at all hence you have to suspend disbelief.
Your statement about no one knowing who she is, is absurd. It is only under 20 years since her dad was King, she was born in Dragonstone, people who are still loyal to the Targaryens still exist such as Dorne in the books where Prince Doran sends his other son to marry Dany and fight for her, Randyll's Tarly himself lead the army that won the Battle of Ashford for the Targaryens - he is right that Dany is more or less a foreign invader, but using that as one of the reasons not to bend the knee suspends disbelief considering his history.
Personally one of my most favourite season of Game of Thrones, but I do agree there is some poor writing and many moments where you have to suspend disbelief.
Groups are definitely travelling a bit too fast all over the place whilst the White Walkers are just chilling for months at the same spot, Arya suddenly becomes a pro assassin who knows how to spy and lockpick, no one in Westeros knows how to scout and gets ambushed all the time, Jaime conquering house Tyrell very confortably when they have a well guarded castle(!) to defend, Euron seems to have a submarine and ambush ships out of nowhere (there aren't mountains in the water to hide behind), Randell Tarly saying that Dany is a foreigner attacker on Westeros and is highly critical of her - but the fact that he supported the Targaryen army during Robert's rebellion is never mentioned, Jaime is jousting on a horse on shallow water but gets knocked one metre sideways and sinks to oblivion, etc.
From what I've read, one of the main reasons it is more difficult is because the ledges are more slippery. In the old games you could stay up with just your small toe on the surface - now since the ledges are more rounded, you simply slip off which is a massive pain in the first game.
I skim read this article, did they really ignore the fact that the main problem was the terrible campaign and lack of plot?
Also the cheekiness of charging additional DLC that contained content that was originally meant to be in the base game but was scrapped because they foolishly changed the whole story late in development and just pieced random missions together?
If I remember correctly, when they were discussing FF14 back in the days, Microsoft wanted their servers to be standalone as their cross platform policy prohibited it and Square Enix said no as they wanted 360 to be part of PS3/PC server.
Amusing that whoever is the leader on the console war they switch roles!
