I'd just wait until the second part is out, sub one month.

Sure until they start adding game mechanics like daily login rewards and episode "loot boxes" that give you a chance to increment your streaming battle pass so you finally have a shot at rolling for the show you actually want.

I got a holographic original extended Daenerys sex scene!

But you won't see it at the same time as some others, the horror!

Might seem stupid, but it's actually much more enjoyable to be watching something at the same time as others because you can sit and discuss it, come up with theories for how things will play out, and avoid having things spoiled for you. Nobody is going to be excited when you tell them you just started Game of Thrones last week because the show ended years ago and many people have already seen it all.

That's a real concern if you're at all worried about spoilers. It's so easy just to have shit spoiled even if you try to avoid it. Passively hearing about it from school/workmates, social media, or even radio. The stupid radio spoiled the ending of Breaking Bad for me and I never got over it, I guess.
