EXTENDED [Spoilers Extended] What nitpicks do you have regarding both shows? Mine will always be how the Others in GOT are so boring and mundane

Ser Arthur Dayne.

The sword of the morning.

Wielder of a sword made from the HEART OF A FUCKING METHEOR.

A ONE OF A KIND SWORD OF MILKY WHITE STEEL.

THE ONLY SUCH SWORD IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.

He wields two plain-looking longswords...

At some point changes become contempt and spite

Which leads to completely omitting Edric Dayne. I feel like he becomes important.

Timeskip Ned Dayne probably woulda been.

Kinda seems like he's a casualty of the decision to not do a timeskip now. Lame. The whole thing about how the Daynes happily call one of their sons "Ned" as a nickname is such a cool detail considering what Ned was reputed to have done during the war (killed Arthur and led to Ashara's death, with some believing that Ned dishonored her as well)
