It spans both concepts. On a 7pt Likert scale it would be around a 2 when it starts (ignoring the very first prologue of book 1) and progresses to about a 5 by book and/or season 6. At this point we have "elves" (CotF), ice monsters, undead, and dragons; blood, fire, nature, and ice magics. It's not the tippyverse yet, but it doesn't need to be to be called High Fantasy at this point.

Haven't seen GoT some of you? Christ guys, you need to start naow!!
these first two scenes/vids, are the first I was shown by a friend n convinced me to watch the show, I assumed it was some random crap fantasy show like Shannara etc. 99% of fantasy in TV is cringe af n garbage..so I missed the first 3-4 seasons when they came out but watch it all in a weekend.
I wish there was a longer version of this with dialogue but it's what I could find..
words failed me

I like Game of Thrones.
It's not the best show on TV but its good.
Then you'd hafta wait until end of next season next year at least, at end of Summer probably...You would need to watch 8 seasons lol..
But...I mean..this is like saying you wouldn't have watched star wars a new hope when it came out until Return of the Jedi came out...
It's pretty much the only TV show I've watched in...gee, 10, 15 years now, and that only happened because a friend of mine gave me seasons 1-5 on a thumb drive for free.
It is not a show for the squeamish...and I like it for that, even in the very few times it's made me roll my eyes and/or facepalm in disgust.
Far from a perfect show, but it's still very entertaining.
but the bulk of the content in the show isn't high fantasy is prob what they meant im guessing
nope, fall asleep every time i have ever tried to watch it
Let's put it this way... if I want sex I don't need GoT. I could also watch Rome. Or Pornhub. I don't need soft core fantasy porn.
If you watch GoT just because Daenerys is so hot, I guess you're the one who is a bit uptight.
Now I'm doing GoT injustice, it's better than that. But your comment was pretty low quality as well, so don't complain.

Neither didn't have that option so I said NO, since I have not really had a chance or made an effort to see it but based on the hype around it, yeah, thumbs down dragons, knights swords and the typical fantasy LOTRs BS.
Milli Vanilli, Bigger than Elvis
I like, but Martin writes too slowly his books

Here, have at it. This is where your ignorance stems from.
Also, what kind of projection is this?If you watch GoT just because Daenerys is so hot, I guess you're the one who is a bit uptight.
i've seen the first 1 epsiode and that's it, seems like something i would like but I don't have HBO and haven't bothered "Acquiring" the series yet.
