The Light's Blessing: What if Melisandre summoned dragons?

Say Melisandre succeeded in burning Edric Storm/Gentry Waters, was warned by fire Davos would intervene, and got Stannis to keep Davos in the dark about the idea, and he only realize it when he hear the forbidden barbecue screaming.

Now, if we assume that worked, and Stannis got a stone dragon, how would things play out?

A Common Tragedy: What if Joffrey's autopsy cleared Tyrion's name?

Joffrey died (joy and rapture), Cersei has Tyrion arrested for murdering him with poison.

Say, if when the maesters check his body, they find traces of pie and lemon cream in his throat, say the strangler closed his throat as he was taking the second bite of the pie, and conclude he simple choked to death. No foul play.

How could things goes from there?

Favorite change/retcon in the series?

We always complain about retcons, myself included (don't get me started on the post credit of Veilguard), but here, I wanna discuss about the opposite.

What is a change made to the lore or look of the series that you personally like better to the way it was previously?

Issues with Juiced Patch + Gentlemen of the Row.

Just reformatted my PC, installed the current version of the Juiced Patch and the DLC reintegration, working fine. Installed the Gentlemen mod with my favorite additions, crashed. Installed just the fixes, crashed.

Crash report returned "0x007BD6F1".

Any clue how to make it work?

P.S: Playing Linux CachyOS with Lutris.

Update: Turns out, Juiced's DLC mod, and GOTR are incompatable. Removing the DLC, and creating a GOTR.txt to remove the warning the Juiced mod has about GOTR fixes the issue.

Brother's love: What if Jaime saved Tysha?

Started reading A Game of Thrones again, got to the part Tyrion tells the tragedy of Tysha to Bronn, and I wondered this.

Say, rather than doing as Tywin told him to, lie to Tyrion about Tysha, he instead when to the barracks, pulled his sword, and said "anyone touches my brother's wife will lose their manhood!", defending her from the guards and Tywin?

What would change from there?

Robert the Unworthy: Bobby B legitimizes his bastards before dying.

Imagine this:

Robert has been torn open by the boar, he's gonna die soon, but before he does, he grabs Cersei by the arm, looks her with a smile and says: "I know. I always knew. I let you and Jaime have your fun because I knew I would get my revenge, and now it's time! You think you'll laugh at me as your and Jaime's bastard sits my throne? think again!"

He turns to Ned, and with Selmy, Renly and Pycelle as witnesses, his last royal decree is to disinherate Joffrey, Tommen and Marcella as incest bastards, and declares Mya Stone and Edric Storm to be legitimized as Baratheons, and Edric is the heir.

How screwed is everyone after that?

What if Tyrion killed the Mountain?

Being a bit silly today.

Yes, the chances of that happening are on part with the Brackens ever choosing the good side in conflicts, but say after Tyrion learns he would have to fight the Gregor Clagane himself, he suits up, accepting his fate, deciding to die with dignity, only to, by pure luck, swinging with an axe at the Mountain, he manages to cut into the back of Clagane's knee, jumps back, and watches just as stunned as everyone else as the Mountain falls down, and bleeds to death from the cut to the artery.

What happens when people see the Half Man did the impossible?

What if Robert ordered the Montains and Lorch's heads.

Say, If Robert was a decent human being, and when he sees the bodies of Elia and the Targaryen children, he looks at Tywin and calls his bluff saying "If your bannermen acted out of control, it's your job to punish them. Bring me their heads".

What could change from that?

Recommendations for small game projects?

After a two months os studying the basics, and for these two month, I say at least one was me getting into the infamous tutorial hell, reviewing what I already know, I feel I'm ready to start proper projects.

Problem being, I have no clue where to start.

I have seen Github repos with small projects for general stuff, web apps, task automatization, the sort of thing that people do to get jobs, but I have no interest in that. I wanna make games, not weather apps.

So I want some recommendations for repos, or books, any place that can guide me with smaller games to get my feet wet in it, since I wanna make RPGs, and I imagine just the Space Invaders clone in the Python Crash Course book is not enough.

Draw A Box light?

Looking for guides and courses on drawing, I, like many, came across Draw a Box, a free course focused on fundamentals. The course looks great, really focused in setting the basics of drawing into second nature.

Problem being, is too overwhelming. There's so much to do, and a good portion of the projects take a while, a time most people don't have.

What I wanna know is if there's some variation of the course, or another one, with a similar mentality, but something more manageable.

Looking for programming courses to learn and inprove, I've come across a video talking about learning to program, where is said the exercise system most courses have don't work, and people should learn the basics of programming in general, get a project for a fully flegded program, and just do it.

I wanna know, as someone who has a basic understanding of the basics (mainly data types, variables, loops and if statements), and who feels is just running around in circles, is there merit in this mentality, or is a nice way to shot yourself in the face?

Starting to learn, got Natural Way to Draw, and I've noticed how it pushes for drawing from life, either live models, or objects.

I wanna know if it's fine to use photos online to learn, or is there some inherent difference that makes it not optimal to learn to draw from observation?

I've come across the GDevelop engine, an engine made to make games without coding, but programming with a event system, similar RPG Maker, as I'm trying to learn programming to make games.

For people who mess around with game engines, is it a good option for game development?
