I haven't read the novels but I've played almost all the RPGs, board games, card games and game mods set in GoT world. I really like the tv series except for the fact that HBO could really control their urge to put excessive amounts of sex and nudity in their shows. If the content from the book has to be toned down in order to fit into a TV series, does something as unimportant as sexual and erotic content have to make it through in full?

Most I have seen have a purpose showing alien culture og low moral.

To be honest, I'm juvenile enough that I see it as a sort of bonus ^^
Though to be honest, some of it seems kinda gratuities.

I could have done without the manly shave and happy ending. The rest is welcome.

At least it isn't baywatch like; "Here, look at that body, let's scroll up and down it so you can really get an eyeful!"

It is usually more; "Hey, boobs happen to be on the scene here, but pay attention to the dialogue because it actually is plot relevant!"

I could have done without that part as well. Particularly since they made it up for the series.
