Binged all 8 seasons of GOT for the first time over October, and while many characters suffer in season 7 & 8, Daenerys’ sudden twist to villain might be the worst thing ever..?

Everyone is so sure that the intent for Dany was to be the villain.

She is a complex character that does both good and bad things. Too much emphasis is put on her empty threats, not her actions.

If Dany (or say Theon, Tyrion, Arya, Jon, Brienne, Olenna, Stannis--all killers) was purely good, it wouldn't make for great story. Humans are complex.

Put the good and bad deeds of each GOT character next to each other; there will be very few that have a clean record. (Rickon, maybe?)

Someone in the thread said she murdered Doreah and Xaro by locking them in the vault. This was after they betrayed her, killing half of her group and stole her dragons. That was justice for her. Ned Stark kills a man in ep1 for leaving the Wall, ignoring the man's warnings about white walkers. That was justice for him. Morality is not black and white.

For me, I'm eager to see what GRRM will ultimately do with Daenerys (and everyone else).

The Game Of Thrones cast filming ‘The Long Night’ episode for Season 8. The episode was filmed in 55 night shoots over 11 weeks and during harsh weather at sets in Moneyglass, Saintfield and Belfast, Northern Ireland. What's a "Game of Thrones" moment that is not suppose to be funny but makes you laugh? If GRRM needs 11 years to write 75% of one book, he'll finish the series in 2040 at 92 years old Do you think without the dance the dragons would still go extinct prior to Dany?
