If that was the idea all along, then it is even more disappointing because the writers didn't even bother developing the story that way, because Bran was clearly manipulating things his way then.

To me the episode ended on a somber, but good note, but not in a GoT way. Just terrible all around.
Okay....if anyone is saying that Bran 'played the game' then you should disregard anything and everything they said.

There might be a case to be made that he manipulated certain events as the Three-Eyed Raven, but its highly unlikely that he did so to effect this particular sequence of events.

I think the major hope is that by having Humanity's Memory (literally) as the King of Humanity that it will negate the repetition of prior mistakes.

Shouldnt be a problem with Bran.
