    No statement has ever been more true.

      Which is weird to say since video games get published as well. Valve is a game publisher as well as developer. So, Half-Life 3 is already the Half-Life 3 of the publishing world.

      Yeah it will feel like the end of dance of the dragons. The book may be cool and it may set up a lot of new material and a lot of new content to talk about, but at the same time it will feel like something is undone. That's how I felt with all the cliffhanger battles at the end of dance it felt like the curtain closed before the final act.

      GRRM wrote an anti Tolkien epic Fantasy that he turned into an epic Fantasy because he wrote a story in that genre.
      So he either upholds the genre and goes against his principles and his original goals, or he subverts the genre and he makes pretty much the same thing happens that happened with the series.

    Gosh, what gets me is the end line. . .because that is what is going to happen. There's what, two more books after Winds of Winter? One? Meaning its likely getting into 'finale set-up territory' There were sections in Dance that felt woefully uncomplete and left hanging in ways that were unnecessary. It's been forever though since I've read it and I kinda don't care to go out and get the books I don't already own.

I'm looking at YOU, "V" remake from 2009, "Terra Nova", and "Almost Human"! Yes, I'm still bitter!

      I saw a video essay on how grrm can't and the series in under three books, and he can't end it well because every bit of his writing previously played into the very fantasy tropes that he hates.
      So grrm must either make Jon Snow the fantasy hero everyone expects him to be, or he must duplicate the show's ending of a great twist and things not working out.
      So he either betrays his original vision to make a good story, or completely destroys the fandom of game of thrones, permanently.

    Why would he release a book that is going to sink his career permanently, because it's never going to satisfy everyone and the setup he built means that he must either torpedo the entire story by having everything end like the TV series, or he must give in to the Tolkien style fantasy story and have Jon Snow be the hero?
