First and foremost: I like Fantasy/Medieval and earlier entertainment. Dragons and other mythical beasts and beings, Swords and Sorcery(even though there's very little of that), Pre-gun powder warfare, all of that, it's interesting too me. Don't know why, just is.
Second: the characters, like OP said, are amazing. Arya, Jon, Tyrion, Danaerys, etc. they make you care about them. They often make you laugh, cheer, angry, worry and sometimes bring you close to tears at the thought of or in the event of losing them.
Third, and this is almost as important as the characters: the political intrigue(backstabbing, scheming, etc) and the scandalous nature of the show(incest/false kings, torture, murder etc)
People often bring up the bloody, pornographic, etc nature of the show, but that's not the bulk of what makes the show good. I'd consider that only a small piece of the show and not really the reason I watch it. Although, not going to lie, a pair of tata's everynow and then are nice lol.
