Small changes would also be hugely helpful.
Give Jon a one v. one against the Night King with Ghost jumping in to fight alongside Jon. Make it awesome. Have him and Ghost get their asses kicked. Don't even care if Arya still delivers a final blow.
Have Bran warg into Rheagal to take out Viscerion. Have Rheagal die in Winterfell instead of by discount Jack Sparrow.
Have Dany kill Jaime (avenging her father) and burn Cersei in the map room by Dragonfire (which was the plan in S7 until D&D got the "brilliant" idea to die via brick). Let the audience see Dany's POV during the burning of KL.
Have Arya mercy-kill Cersei (like she refused to do with Sandor in S4) in the map room.
You don't have to make these exact changes -- but little things like this could go such a long way to making memorable moments happen in Season 8 even if the outcomes are similar.
Or do none of it. Zero clue why HBO wouldn't do this. The excitement would be off the charts.
