Interesting review. I read all 3 books and found the characters and the writing itself to be the weakest part, while the mathy stuff was the most interesting. This esp gets true in the third book. But I also have an infinite loathing for D&D and don't really trust in their ability to do anything.

I agree that the mathy stuff was the most interesting and I found that dumbing-down to be the most disappointing part of the adaptation, but on the other hand, it makes sense to do when you're trying to have it find a wider audience, so I tolerate it.

What's wrong with Dungeons and Dragons?

pretty sure theyre talking about the show runners, David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, the same people who ran (and messed up) game of thrones.

Ask the GoT fandom. They're the ones who decided to call David Benioff and D.B. Weiss "D&D"

Black and White? I thought those were generally considered to be some of the best Pokemon games
