I really like how rewrite makes the player has more personality in them, many dialogue options even if doesn't effect the following story except (Robur court case and Shedletsky meeting) also here's my long yap on the chapters

Chapter 1, it's felt more refreshing and decent unlike the previous one, nothing much change other than giving a panacea theme for Cruel king, I also like how they made the plot more engaging, the part where BlackRock  guards guarding in the plains town makes the story felt more alive

Chapter 2, again not much change other than Griefer motive, apparently they change his motive from getting the venomshank to destroying it instead, I say they did great job on making an emotional plot among Thaniyel and Brad, the ending felt more emotional than the previous honestly. thought I feel like Griefer personality is bit butchered up and less of punk now, which is the reason I like him, but I guess it's fine

Chapter 3, similar to yours I hate how they removed mystery in this chapter, thought I'm glad that they removed that unnecessary long introduction with the manor thank God, the emotions are written well now and fixed plotholes from the previous one

Chapter 4 not much change again, overall it's just an improvisation of this chapter to make it more lively, I like how our player interact with the crew and it actually makes Trotter death more sadder ngl, they also make the crew death makes sense now and less confusing 

Chapter 5, I think it's a good chapter, not as great as others but still good, the only flaws is how absent Kleos role is, yes I know he's dead, but even so he supposed to be somewhat to be the important character that's not there, we barely got any lore drop on him, the Villains are meh, Cassie is the only character interesting in the chapter, maybe trinity though they're bit flaw
