    They had books for more than just the first couple seasons of GoT. Quality dropped from about season 4.

    Luo Ji doesn’t show up in the first book, I misattributed some of Wang Miao’s stuff to him, my mistake.

    Luo Gi is THE wallfacer

    who figures out how to destroy solar systems, effectively stopping the trisolaran invasion

    . He is there at the end

    spoiler

    of our solar system when everything gets sucked into 2d space

    . He’s easily the most pivotal character in the books and he’s not in the show. What else is there to say?

      I think season 4 was the peak, and it looks like that’s a common opinion: https://www.ratingraph.com/tv-shows/game-of-thrones-ratings-26649/

      The episodes remain highly rated until the last season, although those of us who had read the books were complaining more before then - for me it was the combining of characters in a way that created plot armour, which ruined a big part of what made GoT great.
