      Facts. He wasn't as overly cruel either, he was politically savvy and had patience.
      As did Tywin in his own way but, the length Tywin went, just for it all to come crashing down with House Lannister being viewed in a negative light... Otto just slid in, low key 😅 he did well

    Otto is such an interesting character, elevated by Rhys Ifans' incredible performance. He's often portrayed as an evil, manipulating snake by the wider community, but the truth is that he acted how any other lord would've done in his position. He saw an opportunity to install his family on the throne and took it. He's a calculating mastermind, unafraid to use every advantage at his disposal, something you need if you want to play the Game of Thrones.

  • @Divine_Chareka

      Yes, but he is a true monster. He is the real reason for war, and responsible for many lives. Lyonel Strong was as wise as him, and yet he was loyal to the king and the realm. He was an honorable man unlike Otto. Otto Hightower has no honor.

      Nah, even Lyonel said it was a bad idea to name Rhaenyra heir, and he didn't approve of her and Harwin's... intimacy.
      Otto simply took action where Lyonel begrudgingly kept up appearances. Both are good hands, but Otto isn't evil or a monster.
      He's just a pragmatic man who knew the King's feelings were getting in the way of his duty. Lyonel disagreed with Viserys, as did Otto, and many others. Only difference is thay Harwin took it upon himself to sleep with the Royal family, and Otto had directed his daughter do it with a different person, and actually have legitimate kids.
      Both hands have grandchildren with royal blood.

    An intelligent, ambitious, cunning, loving and ruthless man playing an ugly game, not because he wants to, but because he needs to. He needs to do anything he can to win the game for his family, for his peace of mind, for his desires and for the realm. The beacon of the Hightower family needs to light the path for the future of his family. A lonely man, missing his wife, consumed by his duty to the realm and to his family. A true man if you ask me, doing what it needs to be done for the legacy of his family. You can only love or hate Otto Hightower. With a man acting by a strong and controversial personal creed there is no middle ground.
    Phenomenal edit! I enjoyed every second of it. Thank you for your effort. It is much appreciated!
    It reminds me of an old saying. A father loves his children more than he will ever tell them.

    Just today, I talked about Otto with my friend. And we agreed that he IS a valuable character whatever side you're on, black or green.
    He's intelligent, planning, resourceful and good at diplomacy and alliances.
    And for the kingdom he's a necessary politician to put things in the right place.

      Tywin- agreed he does anything for his family’s power, wealth and strength, and his willing “in a way” to sacrifice his daughter, he didn’t care if she didn’t want to be queen or not, he did that all the same and won,
      Alicent realized that a bit late
      Littlefinger- agreed cuz of his ambition and lack of loyalty. Also cuz he has no problem using Alicent has tool to get power, just like Littlefinger did to Sansa
      And also due to his way of advising the king, everything he says to Viserys is the advice that benefits Otto the most

      Not everyone sees him as a villain. That's completely debatable. So far he's been nothing but short of amazing in his screen time. What villainous acts has he done? Selling his daughter to a happy and a powerful relationship with Viserys? I don't understand you people. Way too biased. It's like he said: "If that's true then I made you the queen of the seven kingdoms." Which is absolutely correct and true. If it weren't for him she wouldn't even be in this position. She should be eternally grateful and thankful for his presence in her life.
