shit nigger you're right

you mean the medical procedure? it clearly saved jorah. what more did you need?

the character served no purpose

Jorah was the best character because Iain Glen has the best voice

Consolidation of book plots and invention of new plots.
D&D had been doing it since season 2 in spite of not knowing where they wanted them to go, and so the show collapsed under the weight of it.

If only it turned out that the Citadel kept Jorah around for Sam to find and "cure" him knowing full well that sometime later Jorah will have relapse of grayscale, hopefully around the time when he meets Daenerys and infects her, essentially wiping out Targaryen scum once and for all.

It demonstrated Sam's growing prowess as a legitimate maester.

Seems like the kinda stuff the books might end up doing desu, the Meisters in the citadel seem to be up to something shady

Always thought it was ridiculous, much like other D&D writing. Rip off your stone skin to get rid of the disease? Because the bacteria/virus is not spread everywhere via your bloodstream already? Also rip off your skin and live, without any disinfectant and all, because the burn victims have such high survival rate, even today! Just rip off the ugly skin, why has nobody thought of that in the centuries of the plague history! We needed this forbidden, dark magic book to tell us you need to rip off your stone skin.

why wait for sam, a novice with no experience who could have easily fucked it up, to do it, while actively antagonizing him, if that was their end goal all along? they should have just cured him right away and released him

Then maybe they weren't planning to do anything with him, except maybe experimenting with disease and trying to find means of delivery. But then fucking cocksucking Sam comes along with a "cure", and the maesters use this newly discovered opportunity instead knowing that Jorah with 100% certainty will go back to Daenerys.

In the books Jorah still has greyscale and D&D couldn't think of a less-retarded way of curing him

>In the books Jorah still has greyscale

that's Jon Connington breh

The entire show served no purpose other than to blow liquid feces on one of the best sprawling fantasy worlds in literature.

>blocks you're path

would that make any difference? daenerys died anyway before the greyscale could possibly incapacitate her in any meaningful way

what wrong with the way he's been cured?

King of serving no purpose

I may be misremembering stuff here, but didn't he fulfill his destiny by protecting arya who then went on to kill the night king and save the world?

Let me get this straight, fatty here sits down in the middle of the biggest battle while all the zombies have overrun the castle and swarming everyone around him but magically ignore fatty just sitting there????????

His greyscale affected skin is simply removed. People today with high intensive medical care die from burn treatment procedures. Being skinned is harsh on the body. We don't just use anesthesia to keep the person from feeling pain, but to keep the body from going into shock. He would've gone into shock, Sam keeps cutting, then he dies.

Shouldn't this also mean if you cut the skin of the moment you get touched, you'll be fine? Goddamn man just when you think Game of Thrones couldn't get any more shit

>up to something shady
isn't it implied they killed off the dragons that survived the civil war?

>Brought back to life several times for the sole purpose of blocking a hallway for Anime: The Character.

>almost every character inexplicably survives season 8
>except the one character who had been built up for the entire show to serve some kind of higher purpose

Don't forget the slow motion shot where he's just sat there crying in the middle of the fight.

Isn't there one of Jon seeing Sam getting attacked by zombies and leaving him there to get to Bran (Something he also fails to do)?

God, that episode was shit.

maybe the stuff he applied after skinnning him acted as anesthesia as well

he saved the girl who saved the world. idk what kind purpose you want that's higher than this

She didn't save the world though. The Night King left a failsafe White Walker far beyond the Wall. Once that kid grows up he will have some time with Jonny and Tormundio making spirals out of their guts.

now if only we had an omniscent king who could warn us of this danger

>disease no one was able to cure for thousands of years
>turns out the cure is to just cut it off

wow great writing D&D :)

Reminder all the cool kids at the Fireplace Party survived the Long Night Battle, and the only casualties were lame nerds like Jorah, Beric, Theon and Lyanna, who were actually getting prepared

In the books he dies off screen, but he still matters a great deal as he gives his life so that Catelyn can be resurrected.

>implying it wasn't actually Thoros who can only control one corpse at the time with his telepa-- I mean magic

The kid was turned by the NK, so it shattered when he died.

Remember how the fat guy stole a sword from his dad? What happened with that?

>tells the others to run
>stands in the hallway blocking the zombies with his body
>the way he blocks the hallway looks like Jesus on the cross
>the zombies stab him
>instead of running the others stand there and look at him
>''GOO!!! I'LL HOLD THEM OFF!! RUN!''
>they still stand there
>after getting stabbed 10-30 times he just catches up with the rest of them
>they effortlessly close the door
>dies on the floor for no reason, cucked out of his last heroic sacrifice scene, completely pointless death

gave it to Jorah who died with it

>bacteria/virus
Who says germ theory is real on Planetos?

Mature Man Poster, come back to /got/, we miss you

wait. how many people got resurrected in the books?

user, BLACK OF HAIR

Ned knew that once you go black you can never go back.

>the cure is literally just peeling all the scabs off his skin
bravo

Sam also applied medical ointment afterwards

there was some kind of ointment that sam was going to apply after debriding the greyscale though could be antibacterial

It wasn't just the scabs, he had to go pretty deep if I remember correctly

They combined Jorah with a book character who gets greyscale. When Martin was off the series DD didn't want to continue with his story, so they got rid of it. Jorah then had nothing to do.

You could have said that about almost the entirety of season 7 and 8

they kind of forgot about the disease crippling the world

It turned into a shonen anime somewhere toward the end with all of the plot-beleivability, coherent storytelling and satisfying conclusion to show for it.

>this disease is impossible to cure, not even the top minds of all time fan figure it out
>dude just peel it off lmao

WOLF IS THE WINNER

The seasons past s4? I agree completely.

Season 4 was also meh. Basically everything past season 3 is shit.

I agree with this anons opinion no homo

>Azor Ahai has magic sword created by stabbing into woman's heart
>Magic sword called Heartsbane is never brought up after Sam gets it
I'm not an Azor Ahai purist but this gets to me. Martin probably put it in as a subtle red herring but I think DnD just forgot.
