Sort of. The good guys won at the very end, and it wasn't easy. And lots of good characters were tortured and died along the way. It wasn't a clear cut "easy"

It wasn't a clear cut "easy" win for the good guys. A major moral character dies in the first season!
- tsimionescu 5y agoThey won the "Battle for the Dawn" in a few hours only losing half their army or less and only two significant characters mid-way through the season. They then won the final battle with even fewer losses after a few hours of fighting, with no major characters dying, in what would have been a clean victory where they would have been hailed as saviors, had Daenerys not gone insane after the victory. Even she was then easily defeated, with little consequence for her killer or the former prime Minister who publically condemned her, despite the fact that the kingdom was under the control of her fanatically loyal general and his fanatically loyal troops. There were more characters committing what amounted to suicide in the final few season than those who were killed by the horrors of war or scheming enemies. I would call all of this quite easy. Sure, along the way in previous seasons, a lot were tortured and died, but many of them turned out not to matter too much at all in the overall plot (particularly, Rob Stark, and arguably, Jamie Lannister).
- the_af 5y agoSo the good guys mostly lost through the show, many permanently killed, with whole cities laid to waste and innocents and guilty alike slaughtered, and the victors proved either morally gray or outright mad, and they only won at the very end of the series, and you consider this "easily winning"? I guess the Allies also "easily won" against Hitler then ;)
