I really wish I could see the states in the loving potatoes line. I'd be shocked if less than 120% of people picked that option. Also I love Asher which means he'll certainly die horribly soon enough. I'll enjoy it while it lasts!

EDIT: Also, I'm not super clear on the timeframe here.

In episode 1, I think(correct me if I'm wrong) they mention it will be at least a week until the Boltons get to the castle, which is when Ethan dies. So was Rodrick loving unconscious for at least a week, and survived with no serious complications? That part seemed a bit forced to me.

Another thing I liked about Jon Snow here is that it kind of let us see him reacting to the Red Wedding and Robb in general a little bit more. I feel like we didn't get enough of that in the books, so I'm actually pretty happy to see this here, small as it was.

The corpse cart bit specially bothers me because I'm pretty sure on episode 1 they say that it will be a week before Ramsay arrives at the Forrester's place. So the dude was presumably unconscious for a week and a couple days and managed to make it out okay. Geography and time seem to be played pretty loosely here.

I'm going to assume they just couldn't get the actor in for a voice-session.

I kind of prefer when they fill in those spots with as many non-canon characters as possible because we know the game won't kill any canonical characters.

Unless it did something really dickish like "Hey, here's Syrio Forell! He was alive the whole ti--OOPS HE'S DEAD FOR REALS NOW"

Honestly I'm loving this series a lot. The only thing that's been bugging me is the fact that it has to basically write around canon, so you know certain things won't/will happen. Then again I'm holding out hope that maybe the games aren't connected to canon at all. Like on the unlikely case that they had permission to screw canon, I think they would totally pretend to be perfectly canonical until almost the end when they took things off the rails. Yes, I'm aware I'm just being an idiot here but that false hope keeps me interested in Ramsey segments.
