unironically yes. I'm talking about the battle. Like, I get the vibe they were going for, but you gotta make some concessions so the audience can actually see what's going on.

Now, the battle itself, that's one of the worst bits of season 8. Like holy shit, it's like the battle plans were drawn up by a 12 year old playing Rome: Total War for the first time.

Fucking hell, I'm the furthest thing from an expert on medieval combat but even I could tell they made literally every wrong tactical call there. You have seasoned commanders and tactician's there, and you know what the enemy is capable of.

oh yeah their tactics were dumb as fuck. you have walls, why are you letting half your army die outside of them?

I don't think they should have made it brighter though. the 'night' part is like all they got right about the 'long night'.

It was basically impossible to tell what was going on in The Battle of the Bastards too but people loved that episode and I hardly ever see complaints about it.
