Changes

Although the show as a whole has been well-received, season 8 has been subject to heavy criticism.  This stems from how the battle with the White Walkers and Night King takes place in the first three episodes, when it was seemingly set up to have the Night King be the ultimate antagonist of the series.  The ending has been criticized as well, as Bran Stark becomes king of Westeros, and the North becomes it's own kingdom with Sansa Stark as it's queen.  Jon Snow's fate as being exiled back to the Night's Watch for killing Daenerys Targaryen, who had destroyed King's Landing was also highly criticized.
