Did it fail to answer some questions people have wanted answers to for a long time? Yeah

Did it play it safe AF with the characters? Yeah

Are the prophesies of azor ahai meaningless on the show? Yeah

Was deus ex Arya retarded? Yeah

But were you expecting some deep and winding answer to it all? Dabid and Dabid have already proven without book material, alls they can do is make average to subpar episodes with plot holes. For instance, wtf happened in the hall with the hound, melisandre, and the whites? How did they not die there?
I found it to be a decent episode because I was not expecting the motive for the whites to be revealed, much less make sense. I expected them to play it safe with the characters.

You had your expectations way too high after the last couple seasons. After they butchered stannis' character and had him burn his daughter you should've known.

I can appreciate the dothraki dying so fast because it's supposed to show how dangerous the whites are.

Battle still doesn't top helms deep for me. Way too many quick camera cuts

Yea my expectations were too high but even from the perspective of a strictly show-only fan I’d still be mad. Everything that was built up to for years was just discarded casually. Bran did nothing. Jon and Danny, more or less, did nothing. The only person who had a compelling, sense-making arc end was Mel.

...and yea, Helm’s deep this was not. Plot was shite. Pacing was...ok. Cinematography was all over the place, half the time it was amazing the other half too dark and fast. The only thing outstanding was the score.
