His character was developed over previous seasons, it’s just that people have short memories. I feel his being on the periphery knowing he would ultimately end up on the throne was a major part of the point. Again, literal subtly over TV flash.
I’m certainly not saying it was perfect or that they couldn’t have improved it with some minor changes. I’m just saying I think many of the people complaining are wrong to imagine that it would be easy to make it the amazing conclusion we’d all have liked to have seen and as a piece of complex storytelling, it wasn’t nearly as bad as so many seem to want to believe.
For mediocre seasons, I really liked them.His character was developed until he became the 3 eyed raven then they just had him sit in a chair saying "I'm not really Bran" and "you were just where you needed to be".
You've got some dude who knows everything, who happens to be the beloved brother of 3 of the main characters and is the target of the night king, and nobody really speaks to or about him.
"Hi Sansa, I know everything now but it's made me a bit weird"
"That's nice Bran, now sit in the corner for a bit while the grown ups talk"
They needed one change: Don't decide to fit multiple series worth of material into 13 episodes because you can't be bothered doing the show any more.
Set up 80% a character arc/plot carefully over 8 years, then botch the last 20% in 5 mins of screen time missing out all of the stuff that makes it meaningful (Jaime, Dany, Jon, Bran, Cersei, Varys, Tyrian, Sandor, Grey Worm, Night King stuff, etc.)
So you got a mediocre final 2 seasons simply because it was impossible to be anything other than mediocre in the completely arbitrary time limit they set for themselves (that no one else wanted, HBO, GRRM, the cast, fans). They ran out of time, long before they ran out of story.
The spectacle was still good, the cinematography, the music, the acting, but they pretty much gave up on the story though and that was their choice, hence the criticism.

That's quality mediocrity!
I always want great shows to never end.Do you think they would have been better if they had more time to allow the plots/characters to develop?

And they did pack a lot of change into the last episode.
I suspect that people were disappointed in large part because it was low key for GOT.
People like Star Wars (1977) style endings wherein everything is wrapped up with
celebratory resolution...the soaring music, medals awarded, beloved characters smiling.
GOT did it differently.
I like the peaceful & rational way that Bran became King.
(Unexpected use of reason rather than violence, eh.)
Who is better qualified than one who didn't seek it?
John Snow being banished to the North was bittersweet.
And the Imp unceremoniously became Bran's hand.
Ending the show with the mechanics of a new bureaucracy
just isn't normal....except in the real world. But I liked it in
part because of exactly that.
If you'd kept up with the series, you might want her dead.
(She became a vicious tyrant.)
Aye, it was several episodes squeezed into a single one.But it happened too fast. I'd have liked to see her waver and vacillate between her old idealistic self and the new Cersei-wannabe she was becoming, until her personality finally solidified as the Mad Queen.

The actor?
She's fetching for a murderous tyrant.Yes, Emilia Clarke. None of what I said was a secret. I do hope that she lives a long time...
