One of the reasons GoT ended up being a massive disappointment is bc every character seems to end up alone. That’s the end of their story and they’re all alone, they’re without the people they love most in the world. None of the Starks are together. Even after hearing for years about “the lone wolf dies, the pack survives”, they all separate. Bran and Sansa are both coronated without a single member of their family there. Brienne is alone without Jaime, as is Tyrion. It all just seems incredibly depressing. It’s an awful cold and uninspiring message to leave your audience with after 10 years. All your favourite characters either died (before or after their arcs were destroyed) or they ended up alive and alone. What a miserable legacy to leave.
