A return to the roots, with intrigue, strategy, scheming and deceit. That’s what we loved so much about the older seasons, when there weren't huge budgets or a general hype about something unseen. The most GoT episode of the Season 8 with a heart-attack inducing scene with a dragon and a psychological rollercoaster for Daenarys. ()
The absolutely crucial advantage of the fourth episode was that I didn't have to listen to a radio play, this time the creators provided me with visuals in addition to sound. That's it for the advantages. The absence of impenetrable darkness revealed to me a whole series of inconsistencies - for example, I don't understand why someone would allow an army armed with long-range heavy weapons (maybe even just a regular bow) to board, and why this enemy wouldn't take advantage of this situation (I doubt Tyrion went far beyond the walls with his useless advice). I was also intrigued that in this episode there was a deflowering, but if I carefully followed the course of the previous seven seasons, there can't be any more of them. ()
