The House of the Dragon is only set 300 years in the past and will have more familiar family groups.
yeah makes sense. Given the massive fan base which they will want to maintain I think the more "normal" people will find it easier picking up a new series if they can relate to it. If you start fresh in a new time period in a different kingdom, different houses, different technologies and languages etc it may be too much for traditional viewers and only appeal to the true scifi/fantasy fan and they would see the viewing figures shrink.
