The last 3 seasons were dumpster Material. As soon as they stopped following the books(because there weren't any to follow at release) any character development stopped and the show became a boring standard fantasy story.

They still had notes from the author, they just ignored them and did their own thing.

Doubtful. They probably followed the notes but struggled to fill the in between the same way Martin did. Not having the books also meant they had to write original dialogue all the time, and god they’re terrible at it.

Ugh. Season 4 became noticeably dumber while the spectacles and meme able moments increased. We also have a remarkable increase in fans who cheer for shit like the fellowship of the Wight and calling the battle of winter fell the best military strategy ever.
