Game of Thrones , is more about the politics/relationships/corruption and general human(and not so much human
) behavior rather than hack and slash medieval tale of glory and blood
Don't expect to see huge fights and stuff like that but rather the reason/actions that lead to them taking place
That's the only thing i didn't like in episode 9 , we didn't get any of the action that went on - and there was plenty of battles goin around -.
Anyway , it's still quite awesome even without the huge battles/fights (although i'd love to see something like the siege of helms deep from lotr ^^).
