GoT Character Side-by-Side Comparisons from Premiere to Finale
Full spoilers for Game of Thrones' series finale follow below.
Game of Thrones is easily one of the most complex fantasy series ever to appear on TV, with a cast of hundreds all playing a role in the wars to determine the true ruler of Westeros and decide the fate of the living. Many of these characters evolved quite a bit over the course of eight seasons, to the point where they're hardly recognizable by the end -- we're looking at you, Lino Facioli as Robin Arryn!
With that in mind, we thought it would be fun to compare the first and last scenes of all the major players of the Game of Thrones saga. How did their appearance change? How different a person had they become in the end? Note that we're only including characters who played a major role over the course of several seasons rather than just one or two, where there appearances and costumes would have changed, which is why some big names like Khal Drogo, Oberyn Martell and Euron Greyjoy were left out. Spoilers, obviously, lie ahead!

Rage 2’s Bright Bouncy Apocalypse Both Helps It and Hurts It
There’s something about the apocalypse we just can’t quit. Whether its a nuclear war, zombies, robots, games (and gamers) have a morbid fascination with what comes after society breaks down. The infatuation is long-standing, but in 2019 we’ve seen an interesting style shift starting to form: In games like Rage 2 and Far Cry: New Dawn, bleak wastelands are set in the seemingly grand tradition of end-of-the-world stories, but brightened with neon color palettes and a healthy dose of explosive, double-barrelled escapism. You not only get to survive the end of the world, but you also get to thrive in it.
It sounds like a subtle distinction, but it creates a disconnect between the state of the world and how you move through it. The people around you, friends and, often, foes, struggle, but you’re more powerful than ever. That distances you from the desperation you’d expect to feel in such hard existence and the characters who aren’t as lucky as you, which waters down the story. But that distance also makes the ride even more fun, as you aren’t burdened by the weight of that experience.
