Reply to comment by GarlVinland4Astrea in House of the Dragon vs. Game of Thrones Thus Far... What Say You? by Kimosabae

> For instance Dany’s storyline almost feels like a different show. Even Jon once he leaves for the wall

To me that helped. That was world building and showed how vast the continents were. Obviously some story lines dragged vs other more interesting ones. But still it had a good impact

I agree, but it definitely meant a lot of time was devoted to not the main plot

Correct, but the Wall and the North had the mystic of White Walkers and that was amazing IMO. Just a constant tease and reminder of global threat. Dany in Essos was decent once things got rolling; where she had power and dragons!

But yeah, some story lines dragged certainly Arya and faceless man over there.....yeah

True but in the first season the White Walkers really didn’t come into play for Jon until that one scene at the very end
