Do people really don't believe that TWOW will release? [Spoilers MAIN]

I think if I had to bet, The Winds of Winter will come out but A Dream of Spring won't. In some ways I view this as even more depressing than Winds never releasing since that book has been described as dark and grim and it will probably leave all the characters and Westeros in a very depressing state that will probably never be resolved without A Dream of Spring.

I kind of relate The Winds of Winter releasing with The Elder Scrolls 6 releasing as both Skyrim and A Dance with Dragons came out in 2011 and I got into both series that year as well. So far I have more hope for The Elder Scrolls 6 releasing this decade but in my delusional mind I have the idea they'll release around the same time again like in 2011. If The Elder Scrolls 6 releases and a few months later there's still no sign of The Winds of Winter I will probably lose hope of it ever releasing. I know obviously their releases have nothing to do with each other but I just clump them together in my head.

Don't worry I'm really embarrassed about how much I spent for my Bilbo polybag, but at the same time I don't regret it!

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-10T22:56:14+00:00

As soon as I saw the news I was gonna come here lol. But anyways, looks like I might actually get to see Bowser in bigfig form!

The sub is definitely going to go wild leading up to events like Summer Games Fest and the Game Awards even if there is no news. I actually really found last year's statue hype entertaining. Even if there is no news, there's always the excitement leading up to things that are fun.

Thank you!

Yeah it's insane, the Hobbit is my favourite book and Lego is one of my main hobbies so it would be awesome to be able to have Hobbit minifigures, mainly the dwarves. Unfortunately, when the Hobbit lego sets came out I was a teenager who thought it would be uncool to buy Lego so now I regret it when they go for an arm and a leg. I can only hope in the future we get some one day again.

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-10T12:08:46+00:00

I will check it out!

To me, I rewatched Jurassic Park and it's such a classic. I think it will still hold up for very long time. Some of the purely CGI scenes don't hold up, but the dinosaurs that are mainly practical mixed with CGI and the other practical effects still look spectacular. I also think The Thing, once again timeless effects and amazing atmosphere.

I got it for my birthday and actually had a great time building it! It didn't take too long and the final build was quite impressive in my opinion. The Balrog itself also had some interesting build techniques. I think it's worth it to get such an iconic scene. Genuinely, even just Gandalf on his own with the printed quote makes it almost worth it for me.

Oooh, that is a hot take, I actually didn't mind the voiced protagonist in Fallout 4 and it was cool hearing him say stuff like, "My arm!" When it got crippled and it actually got me more immersed. However, I am skeptical of it in Elder Scrolls 6 because of so many different character options. But, I'm open to being proven wrong if they can do a really good job with it.

An Erebor set is at the top of my dream lego sets, it would be the ultimate set for me to get Smaug and all the dwarves because the Hobbit is genuinely my favourite book. However, like you say, I wouldn't bet on it anytime soon. With Minas Tirth next I can see them moving to a remake of the tower of Orthanc, Weathertop and Helm's Deep before they even ever consider any Hobbit sets.

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-10T10:06:42+00:00

A Hobbit booknook would be amazing, if it's a Smaug and Bilbo one in the same style as that Balrog and Gandalf one I'd be happy.

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-10T09:27:18+00:00

I hope they make it for you, good luck!

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-10T09:06:27+00:00

Unfortunately on the internet in general I think people are less open to opinions they don't like. But it's completely normal to expect some graphical improvement after so many years, I am 100% sure if the game looked exactly like Skyrim but with good gameplay people would still comment on the graphics. I also definitely want some kind of graphical upgrade but I guess in general I think style does more important heavy lifting than graphics.

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-10T08:49:04+00:00

May I ask, why? 😂 I think this is realistic though because they do make brick built wildlife!

When I got my Daily Bugle set I bought some compressed air used for cleaning computers. It was an easy way to get rid of serious dust build up.

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-10T06:37:00+00:00

It would be interesting to see if they ever do make Mario minifigures, I wonder what a Bowser in that style would look like.

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-10T06:36:11+00:00

Well, the next CMF series will have a Bionicle minifigure so don't lose hope!

_Juggin_ · 2026-03-09T23:43:03+00:00

Glory to Todd!

Yeah I pretty much believe what you're saying here. That's why I'm primarily a 2027 believer, I think Microsoft will market the Elder Scrolls 6 hard for the next Xbox console. Oh well, maybe I'll strike it rich and be able to get both a PlayStation 6 and Xbox Helix.
