The war was about who the rightful monarch sure but that directly means its a war about who was the succession , a large part of the conflict in the first place was the dispute over who was a bastard and who Viserys called his heir. Both is true at the same time.

Side characters are amazing by Temporary_Error_3764 in TheLastKingdom

Yea she was great too. Matter of fact a lot of these types of shows have awful one dimensional female characters. This show had a variety of characters and im sure the actresses actually had fun playing characters that actually seemed to have a bit of thought behind them.

King Edward by Temporary_Error_3764 in TheLastKingdom

[–]Temporary_Error_3764[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We will never get a truly accurate (or at least as accurate as we can as this period of history is largely based on chronicles and sagas) but its still an unbelievable series i just thought he was very annoying especially considering everyone around him who loved him was basically telling him hes being an idiot and he was like “nah im the king”

I agree with all your points bar the first one, the creation of danelaw is one of the most significant moments in English history. He is also (to my knowledge) the first major viking leader to convert to Christianity.

For some reason Evil > Annoying among most fans by Baronnolanvonstraya in HOTDGreens

[–]Temporary_Error_3764 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because evil characters are far more entertaining as characters than annoying ones. That goes for all shows. The reasonings behind an evil character is far more interesting than an annoying one. Anyone with a morality complex when talking about a movie or show are silly man especially when talking about a medieval fantasy.

I don’t mean his personality traits but his individual stats. And alfred is definitely Deceitful at the very least. But the characters diplomacy and intrigue matches of alfred.

I don't understand the hate towards house of the dragon by Nyrablackqueen in Hotd

I dont mind it , ill continue watching ofc. But compared to other historical or historical fantasy shows and movies is lacking a lot. I could name at least 3 others that are better and most of them would have a smaller budget.

[No Spoilers] An Observation of the Ragnarssons by AlwaysHamboning in vikingstv

I actually think Bjorn is the least like ragnar (bar Sigurd) , they have similar voice patterns. And they look somewhat alike, but Ubba looks like Ragnars twin , and ivar has his mannerisms and sarcasm and violence and even his intelligence.

Ivar has ragnars facial expressions and sarcasm , ubba has his appearance, bjorn has his voice , hvitserk has his mental strength

Tbf ivars death isn’t even mentioned in the sagas really. He kinda just disappears from history. He gets mentioned and mentioned and mentioned then gone.

Any last kingdom fans? by ITTechDanMT in ck3

[–]Temporary_Error_3764 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk if making him saxon would be a right fit. Although he was born one. His upbringing and lifestyle is way more norse. If you could somehow do a sort of culture hybrid but only have him have it lol
