I have just finished the first episode but I am very pleased with what I have seen so far. I will continue to watch. At the moment, everything I have seen in the first eps is very close to what I remember from playing the game many years ago. The acting is great, the story is on point, and everything else fits so well. I really hope HBO doesn't do what other shows have done and intereject their own bias and opinions to fit the narrative of an exisiting story to meet some arbitrary need to change it for the sake of change. However, the show isn't a 1:1, and there have been some minor changes in the story but they aren't that big an issue due to their great writing and accurate story telling.
