Game of Thrones Histories & Lore Reaction | Season 5

Comments

Jaqen didn't describe multiple gods in each religion.... he described one god in each religion, and then said the many-faced god represents all of those. In short, he's the god of death.

Daniel DaPonte

Why would Jaqen H'ghar be on his way to the wall as a "prisoner". Ned was supposed to be on that transport, Poor Ned would never had reached the wall.. :(

Resen

Love your reactions to history and lore, the h&l of season 6 and 7 are my favorites

Moises Villa Gonzalez

the story about the 300 valyrian dragons descending on volantis is absolutely crazy. think about how many they actually had altogether if they had 300 to spare for this one mission alone!

kallista

Nope, it is just deeper dives into the world, history, characters, certain topics. Generally stuff that is explained more deeply in the books and left out of the show due to lack of time, immediate relevance, or production cost. We make sure to review each video to ensure that there will be no spoilers or overt things for future content before they point at which they view it.

SuddenImpulse

all you spoiled children in the comments need to relax

Juan

I just watched the show to find out what was going on. What is the point of watching histories and lore? Doesn't it just spoil stuff or make you predict what will happen?

JBlaze24

Does this count as today's GOT episode or do we get Episode 6 still?

Sasha

So much foreshadowing 👀 can’t wait for your future reactions!!

Cece

Why are all the gods such vicious cunts?

James Woodford

I honestly really like this mid season break. If it makes sense in future seasons to continue this way, I vote yes! I know it would be sweet going straight from season finale➡️season premiere from now on! You guys rock💞😤 now time for ATLA😩🌬️

girl gal

I am curious to know which God/Gods are the most relatable to you guys. Like if you were a citizen of this world, who would be your God? Mine would be The Old Gods of the North. I see them exactly as the Jaqen sees the Many Faced God, they are beyond counting and they are represented by all the gods worshiped in the world (Lord of Light, The Seven Gods, etc.). It's a personal preference but i can relate to them the most and to the values they represent (and to the North overall). Edit: Okay you kinda answered the question, you are followers of the Many Faced God then haha

HDN

It’s v quick, and it goes right past it to what we can assume will be season 2 onwards really quick.

Rainbow

Yeah well that’s childish. It’s basically a delay of two days or so. Longer unannounced delays happen w reactors (including these) all the time. Commenters entitlement is genuinely grating.

Julien

Man i was hoping you would have reacted to the season 1 part of dance of the dragons. Wouldve been really cool

Adrian Neagoe

I love these history and lore videos. I haven’t seen them before so it’s fun watching with you guys. They always get me hyped for stuff I know is still to come in the show.

Brit’sBiscuits

I think most everyone who is unhappy about this video it is only because we were looking for the next episode. Season 5 is building the story and we are at an important point in the story. As all of us who have seen the show know. So it may not be so much not liking the history and lore video, as it is the excitement has been building all week for the next episode and now we have to wait for it. I think that’s why many are saying do it at the end of a season. Not to interrupt the output of episodes. For your patreon members many of us are refreshing multiple times a day in hopes of a new episode release. It’s kind of like Christmas morning when your hoping for a cool toy but you get clothes instead. It is something you need and use but it’s not as exciting. ❤️

I would recommend going on the YouTube copies of these videos, and if you look down a few from the top comments each chapters title will be listed. While there is some repetition, many of these have very different and new info. This way if you are interested in a certain topic you can just watch those. =)

SuddenImpulse

We informed them of this an included a timestamps for when season 2 content started. They ultimately decided to just nit bother with that chapter in its entirety. I don't think much was lost reaction wise given that its basically a straight summarization of the events of season 1 which they have extensive reactions for already.

SuddenImpulse

Great line from Spartan: “Knowing Game of Thrones, I’m surprised there are any characters left. “

Daniel Siegel

You could have watched the first two parts (Viserys + Robert Baratheon) of Dance of the Dragons. They only cover Season 1 of HoTD.

Aditya

That’ll be 5 years from now lol

Jenny Tolls

Would be cool to see you react to the dance of dragon histories once House of the Dragon has finished.

Rainbow

Good decision to avoid ALL of the dance of the dragons histories. I was worried when you got to this point, glad you and the mod team picked up on it.

Rainbow

I’m curious to know your theories on how Jaqen H’Ghar is able to change his appearance to look like so many different people and whether or not any of them are real/where they come from?

Jonny Rey

Hi this comment is spoilery as faces havent been revealed. Could you delete it please? Thanks 🙂

Shellbot

Lol

I❤️movies&tvshows

The Many Faced God = The God of Death from every culture...not every god from every culture.

TwistedMagoo

i love the lore videos

Locke

Most of Thrones is a hyper-realized fantasy version of historical events and places, which probably why so much of it feels so relatable.

Evilsponge

i watched the season 1 and 2 and i like it, but than is just to repetitive

Victor Radoi

Jonny Rey

I like hearing the pov of the different characters.

Robert L

I must be the only one who hates the History n Lores uploads based on these comments lol y’all enjoy though

ST00p Kid

If you ask me the lore should be reacted to after all the seasons are over.

Stannis loves grammar.

I love the inspiration from real history. The Titan of Bravos being the Colossus of Rhodes and their shipbuilding abilities are described near 1:1 to that of Carthage. Really fun stuff!

Roma

Cersei is such a visionary, with her take on the crown and the faith being the pillars that hold up the world. She’s such an inspiration for us all really.

James McDowell

please start dividing these by chapters so we can jump to what we want and not have to watch everything necessarily

Sasha

Nymeria is from Rhoyne (the turtle dudes), she fled after Valyria destroyed the Rhoynar. So the Dornish descend from these people, not Valyria

Philippe

We were originally going to have them do this, but we realized they would be introduced to quite a sizeable numbers of characters they hadn't met yet, and certain new subjects, factions, locations etc. would be brought up that had never been mentioned in the show that would give away relevant plot lines in the upcoming season. While you are right they are intended to be watched before the season, it is within the context of people buying the discs, where the assumption is the viewer had already watched the season when airing live/on HBO, so this was just a deeper dive into topics and characters they already knew. In this case we went through the video and felt that they could watch it halfway through without any of that negative impact, while still enhancing the rest of the season. =)

SuddenImpulse

Nothing but respect for the work you put in. Thank you guys!

Petteri Ahlberg

You guys are troopers. I know that Histories and Lore isn't your favorite part. Thank you!

cstarklady

In the blu ray sets that include the history and lore it was intended to watch BEFORE the season anyway, not sure why people care when you watch it tbh. I think it enhances the understanding of the upcoming season giving you more context for all the players/relationships/motivations etc without explicitly spoiling anything.

Mike Jones

IDK BUT OK COOL 👍

Rekway

Oh, snap! Clever play reacting to Histories and Lore mid-season!

Jalabarxho

Great and succinct explanation =)

SuddenImpulse

To clarify, the Many Faced God that the Faceless Men worship is death. They choose the symbolic representation of death from each religion - in Westeros they worship seven gods, but the House of Black and White only honours the Stranger (who is their death god). For monotheistic religions like the red priests faith, they take the whole god because every religion has an arbiter of life and death. The “gift” of the Many Faced God is death, and the acolytes (The Faceless Men) are basically death cultists. That’s why their creed is Valar Morghulis. It's a pretty interesting religion to set up in a fantasy story about zombies (of many forms).

SuddenImpulse

Some of their annoying mods told them they should for some bizarre reason watch this at the mid-season point.

Roy Koopa

I’m confused, but I’m gonna watch it anyway

Supernei

This is early! Change of pace ?
