I got into following the original G.O.T. because it was basically a medieval soap opera and all the intrigue behind the vast number of characters rising, mostly because I knew others who were into it, and like fantasy football, it’s almost like vicarious social participation. BUT, I refuse to get sucked into any new attempts by bastardize (pun intended) the storyline. If this series is just about Daenerys, then I don’t care how many other characters they bring in or intoduce, it’s just not going to have that vast chess-board feel to it.
I don't know much about the writers/directors. If its anything like, or involves the people who wrote, seasons 7 and 8 of the original GoT, then it won't have much, except for gore and spectacle.
