This also allows them to create an emphasis on greater character importance and construction for villains especially.
I'm looking forward to the divergence, and seeing what they do with it. From what I understand the first couple of episodes are slightly 'safe', to concentrate on world building.

Yeah without making any spoilers for those that haven’t read the books, I highly doubt they actually go to the eye of the world in the show. Probably just skip that part and move into great hunt material near the end of season 1
