They nailed the characters, the story beats, the villains, costumes, everything. I was skeptical after season 2 though I'm not a book purist, but they really know what they're doing. Even constrained by the stupid 8 episode per season limit by Amazon.

And that episode this season is probably one of the best episodes of fantasy television.

I liked season 1 well enough but by 3 episodes into season two I was done. How much better does it get?

Lowkey same about season 2. It took me a minute to get into and it was mostly cuz of wanting to see how they developed Mat. They mostly nailed the main arcs that season (a few characters were stagnant but ig with only 8 eps it's bound to happen especially in early seasons). Season 3 I'd say is a vast improvement partially because the story/character setup of the last 2 seasons is finally paying off and they're fully leaning into the high fantasy element of the show and not hand holding the audience. And partially because how it looks and feels. They switched to cinemascope (21:9) aspect ratio, to achieve a more "cinematic" look and it shows.

Oh and this season has some of the best moments from the entire series so it has that going for it, but credit to them, they nailed it.
