Episode 281 Season 8, Game of Thrones story fixes are all wrong

Today's Topic Winter is dead, long live the winter

For complete Fantasy Worldbuilding, show notes go to Gardul.com

Podcast Show flow

• What are the problems with many of the story fixes
  • Game of Thrones was inspired by the past.
  • It was meant to take a Tolkien like story and subversion
  • Execution caused most of the problems, not what happened.
• Daenerys should be queen and/or
• Jon Snow should be King
  • No just know
• John Snow should have killed the Night King
  • Not as such
• Kings Landing should not have burned
  • Who could be king
  • Gendry
  • Ellaria Sand
  • Sansa Stark (The starks are the White Roses)
• Bran should not be King and John Snow should have at least hugged Ghost
  • Okay, cannot argue that
• Lessons for storytellers
  • Beware of breaking tropes
  • People seem to want Disney Fantasy
    • A little messy and scary at the beginning and tied up in a neat bow at the end
  • Monday Morning Quarterbacks will appear either way if your story becomes popular
  • Use character development not shock to change the course of a narrative.

Worldbuilding Task

Create a better story to share and execute it!

Real world task
