I think it could have been done well if you had the conflict from Danerys and Cersei basically leave humanity open to the whitewalkers invasion. Essentially set up the fall of man due to a power struggle.
Would have worked a bit with the overall narrative that the game of thrones doesn’t matter if there is nothing left to claim at the end.
A gigantic army of ice undead that all…just crumbles with the poke of one needle. Her killing the ice king, sure, but at least let us see the white army come across the wall and Winter actually Comes. The whole army disintegrating was massively underwhelming.
That would have been a shit ending. But you are right, it would have been much better than we got.

I would have preferred that. The shit behind the wall was the boogeyman the entire time and we got what? A bullshit pitch black raid on winter fell?

The massive narrative cluster fuck for multiple seasons was underwhelming.
Oh for sure but at that point you’re pot committed…Battle of the Bastards was about the best fight scene we got
Sigh. I was committed.
