I am tired of taging everything so don't read below unless you want spoilers. In-fact stop reading this thread at all.
Two primary ones are Tyrion and Jamie not engaging in the conversation about Tyrion's x-wife. Not only did that put a permanent rift between Tyrion and Jamie but it also lead to Jamie drawing away from Cersei. Tyrion continued to obsess about Jamie's act long afterwards which is why he decides to do what he does. That is not to say they can't make up new reason for these things but the rift between Tyrion and Jamie simply doesn't exist now so placating that in the show would be difficult. That item is really the only thing that could break the two up.
Brienne meeting Arya more so than the Hound changes the dynamic assuming Stoneheart is ever introduced. Everyone in the books assumes she is dead but now people who have access to Lanisters now know she isn't. This kind of screws up the Bolton's story as well.
Jojen was no loss. Just less crying.
