I watched GOT as it aired, but did not enjoy it. I am curious why it received so much hype. To me, it was just an average show. Dexter contained a significant amount of violence, yet I still found it enjoyable. The overall engagement and moral compass of the story are key factors for me. I do not appreciate gratuitous violence.
I politely disagree. Actually, in the show, violence isn't gratuitous at all. Violence has a meaning in Squid Game. VIPs go there to watch those deadly games. They're sick and rich people. They consider those games 'entertaining' and those games are arranged for their 'entertainment'. Also, the people of Squid Game are associated with organ trafficking activities. It's an integral part of the games' operations.They sell the organs of the participants they kill. I think Squid Game isn't average at all. It's very thrilling and has a lot of emotional depth. I'm a very emotional person. So, I like the way emotions are portrayed in that show. But different people have different views and I completely understand that.
