I don't remember for sure but it seems like in the book winterfell had cool Theodosian style walls and a settlement outside the walls that actually made it feel like an important place.
That's what it was. I recall theon having to go out of his way to outlying villages to find bed warmers since wintertown had dismantled. Since the contrast between the first book's description of winterfell and what the ironborn take is worlds different.
Why do fantasy shows and movies never show all the farmland surrounding cities? I can kind of forgive the LotR trilogy because of the already massive budgets and CGI and composite imagery still being relatively young, but nothing past 2010 can hide behind that excuse
Why did the army of the dead go out of their way to stop at this rinky dink little shithole? Even if they wanted to face the army of the living they could have marched past winterfell and made the army of the living pursue them, destroying any food stores along the way south from Winterfell. A long march in winter with that large of an army and only whatever dwindling supply of food they could carry with them would have decimated their forces, not to mention they probably couldn't bring those trebuchets with them and they couldn't possible keep pace with the army of the dead which doesn't need to sleep and can do fine in the blackness of the night.
Holy shit those 2nd half seasons man
ass
Nice capital city you got there, Ned
In the book they ate urine flavored snowcones.
Lannister's spunk
grain and other provisions stored there from the many holds that are fealty to them.
>This is the israeliteel of the north
Confirmed savages
During the middle ages, keeps had a very limited settlement around them, unlike palaces that were near or inside towns.

there was definitely a Wintertown accompanying Winterfell

>A long march in winter
you’re forgetting that the characters all could teleport from one side of westeros to the other side in season 7 + 8
BBC
This could've been decent if it only had double walls and a moat in-between
>Let's use more wall for less castle
You would still have to dissect your enveloped are with yet another wall to keep the plebs out of the garden however.
>Northern area known for years long winters and huge snow falls deeper than a man is tall
>flat, barely slanted roofs
you are imbicile, garden wasnt guarded. it has walls but nothing more so basically its not a part of defence structure
it's called a killbox you moron.
The real Winterfell according to the books is also not that big. I'm so disappointed.
My local Police Station is bigger then that. Jesus was the CGI budget that small?
shit tons of wild game and livestock
And what do they eat?
grass and stuff
>4 year long winter
heh, nothing personnel, Ned.
fantasy world, they hibernate a long time or migrate or have coyote like breeding properties or something
weird how they made the eyrie MORE fantasy-y than it's described but made every other castle a small dingy shithole
what do they eat?
Snow, obviously
Why don't farms exist in the fantasy genre?
