One of the obvious examples is how the Battle of the Whispering Wood had to take place off-screen because of how costly it would be. But I'm noticing other examples, like the royal hunt that consists of Robert and three other characters walking through the woods - with SE6 or SE7 production values we'd see a dozen huntsmen, beaters, dogs, crane shots, etc.

It'll be quite the jarring transition going from watching those early episodes to the spectacular we're going to see on Sunday.
Yeah, I think that unfortunately I'm going to be pirating Sunday's episode because Crave's quality has been garbage and I want to watch that episode in all it's 1080p glory.
