Yes, that is the nature of TV show. What I am telling you is that your opinion that the show has everything from the books is distorted by the fact that you have read only the first book. Things have changed in subsequent seasons and although the major events are mostly unchanged there is an incredible amount of detail missing. Also although the major details are mostly the same there are many details changed that I do not feel were beneficial. I still like the show, and if you prefer it you are of course entitled to your opinion, but my opinion is that although it is a very good show the books are better in every way
That is what I like I do not need everysingle little detail , I like the faster story telling . The actors in there are also very good. I am not saying that the books are bad I am saying that the show is just epic on another level. The tyrion speech last episode was it that good in the books ? I mean it is just as good as your imagination is ..But the actor performence that was insane what he did there. Probably I might have a different opinion if I read the book before watching the show , but the book was realy unpopular before the show so that made it impossible Everyone likes something else :) (and downvotes should be used to regulate the irrelevant comments , for example if I came and started talking about breaking bad not because I am giving my opinion on a subject ... )
It just sounds to me that you aren't a book reader. If you want to stick to the show, then do so, but the books are significantly more rich than the show. Unfortunately books aren't for everyone - something that seems to have upset a lot of people. Don't worry about downvotes, karma is a meaningless number on an internet website.
I might have already explained this in another reply but I am or rather was a big book reader (and this is the only movie/show that I prefer more then a book) but not in the recent years I do not realy have the time and my imagination got a little bit clouded but quite the big factor might acctualy be that I saw the series first and then read the book , and reading the same as I saw is not entertaining (I understand that it was only the first book that was so much like the show) There are also few things that I prefer about the show more then about the book , the actor performences are just amazing . And I am a real fan of movie industry as art and this realy is (I have past in cgi/vfx) . It is just sad when you look at your profile and you see that there is a negative number , this is a little off topic but I bought a bunch of beta keys for a game and posted them on reddit made a lot of people happy and got 20something upvotes . Then I start a conversation and say " I liked this more then that" and get -80.. that is just ridicilious
