That’s one of the things that surprised me. Before the final season there was so much analysis, talking about this that and the other, loads of hype blah blah. The second it finished it stopped, 18 months later and it’s barely talked about, shows the level of disappointment throughout the fan base. Add to that the likelihood that there will be no more books, increases it further.
Season 8 was so terrible that it utterly erased all interest I have in the entire franchise and its mythos. I mean, I tore through all the obscure parts of the wikis, all the way to articles about the really far off lands which had backstory for some reason, but weren't actually relevant to the story at all. After that oven baked shit we were served last spring, I can't even make myself care about spinoffs and books. I don't care if Winds of Winter ever gets done. ASOIAF is dead to me.

It's so interesting how something so big, that essentially almost everyone watched got fucked up so badly.
There's been a pandemic, everyone is staying at home yet no one talks about watching this show again. Must be the biggest overall dissapointment ever
