I think it's less a case of GoT being just about t*ts and dragons and more a case of the show runners (particularly during the later seasons) being hacks and not translating everything to the screen properly.

GRRM is a terrible author. His prose style is atrocious, his pacing it frenetic at times and completely off track at others, and his world building has the intelligence and thoughtfulness of a 6 year old.
The least enjoyable of any books I've ever read.
He would go on for pages and pages and pages of IRRELEVANT lore. Like writing extremely boring short stories that literally had nothing at all to do with the story or the current situation. And he'd go on, sometimes, 2 whole pages describing food. Food. lol FOOD!
I've read some fan-fic from real-life friends who had no talent at all for writing. They were much better authors than GRRM.
Why do guys know this and are adamant about correcting me over it?
She looks 13-14 to me.

She looks 17-18 so when u first called her 13 I was shocked she was so young. Makes sense to find out she is 18.

Maybe the height throws people off as well? I don't know about age, but I did notice she seemed quite short relative to almost everyone around her onscreen. But I have no idea how tall Freya Allan actually is.
Edit: Wait, found a bio. Yep, she's all of 5'3".

Damn that sucks for him. I blame it on a generational thing that he couldn't understand the potential for the video game. Hell I remember being really excited the first time I read an in depth preview about the first game. I had never heard of the series before, it was the games that lead me to the books.
He would have definitely seen an increase in profits now because of the tv series if he had taken the deal. More people were playing the game on steam after the show aired then had played during launch week.

I do, which is part of why I'm unsympathetic to the author. He's a douchebag, and he's very lucky CD Projekt didn't fight that lawsuit he filed on them.

Toss some coin to your witcher author, o valley of plenty o valley of plenty.

I agree he shouldn't have tried to sue them. It's not their fault he didn't think the games would be profitable. He took the money.

I read something about his one time payment deal only applying to one thing, and this lawsuit falling that fell outside of the original agreement.
Or something.
I mean, if he didn't have a leg to stand on, they probably could have just laughed him off, rather then settle.
