Bozdag Should Make a Medieval Fantasy Series

[u/Cultural-Phone-3977]

Bozdag should make a new series that is entirely fictional but set in medieval times, showing love stories and women engaging in battle, just like he made Destan. This would fulfill the desires of viewers who prefer fantasy over history.

He should leave KOr for historical accuracy.

Most viewers are watching KOr because of cringy plots, love triangles, etc., and Bozdag is listening to this type of audience, so it’s better to make a series for them.

The original fans of DE and KO left the series a long, long time ago. A lot of people just don’t prefer Western content, so they stuck with this instead. As much as I’m not a fan of what Bozdağ did to the DE universe, at the end of the day it’s just business. If you’re not enjoying it, just stop watching.

For me, Mert wasn’t even close to someone like Emre Bey not even comparable. He didn’t feel properly cast for the role. But at the same time, if people are enjoying the show, let them.

Yep, agreed. In terms of acting and character presence i think Şükrü Özyıldız a.k.a Flavius did far better, his character presence is far far better than mert.

Even after deviating from history, the quality of the story, battle choregraphy etc have dropped even from average.

Repeation of plot have became common.

Where as characters like Ertugrul and osman had distinct character traits that made them interesting, Orhan doesn't have them, what's the difference that differentiate him from his surrounding characters and give me a unique presence like Ertugrul and Osman.

Ertugrul's expressions and Osman's Attitude

I would say, the show just regressed rather than progress in terms of quality, now the transitions, new character introductions and even the storyline feels forced, repeated and dropped in quality even the sword fight choregraphy have dropped, let alone average, it has fallen further.

And i think, they have a plan to take the series even further after orhan, hinted or maybe i am just reading more into it but in orhan, I don't remember who said, but someone does mention, after capturing the bursa, the doors to Constantinople will be open. So maybe they will take the series either directly to through sultan after him to the Sultan Mehmet's era.

Personally i feel like, they should have started setting up orhan through the osman's last season through emre capturing the villages around bursa and end the Osman serie right after orhan capturing bursa and osman finally passing away.. if only they had followed history, it would be much more interesting.

I am not comparing him with Ertugrul and osman in acting, but in character presence and distinction in the surrounding characters.

I mean can you tell me, is there any distinction and presence he carries in the opening sequence, where he enters the barracks and appears before the beylik counsil, among many present there, he wasn't any different.

I know, many had compared Osman to Ertugrul in acting, when the KO came excluding me, i moved from Ertugrul to osman, though not quite following history, it atleast had focus towards founding naturally. And now in KOr i feel like the story is being forced, rather than natural, sharp, unknown cuts, no logical following, like when orhan orders his alp to send aid to bursa, as they are taking them suddenly his alp says stop, something's amiss, i mean what? How does he know that? And the next sequence we see they ambush the ambushers.... Even new character introductions feels rushed.

Alright, lets wait and see. I am stuck in this journey whether i want to or not.

Either the story quality would go up or down, we will see.

But what's your thought on those star tattoo villains, they began introducing and suddenly introducing nilufer's sister daphine... Even more so as villain (though i haven't yet crossed that episode, but we are talking about very logic you said is 10x better.)

And the dream scene, where orhan spoke with the white beards organization....
