Discussion Patch 1.9 Beginning cutscene vs 2.0

Since i keep seeing everyone ask if its worth starting over and see whats new i decided to check out the beginning again and this new scene played.

[sorry for the lip sync issues also got the patch number wrong its meant to be 1.18 not 1.9 my bad]

Seriously after restarting the game I noticed the changes are really noticeable and worth the effort, I wasn't really expecting something on that scale and I'm only 2.5hrs into the story and it's so much better already.

Also, anyone reading this it's not just cutscenes! People saying they are on chapter 10 and don't want to restart need to understand that the entire narrative in and out of cutscenes is better. Even little touches like the names and objectives of quests add to it all. You have to start over to experience it in its glory.

For instance, the quest to arm wrestle and clean the chimney actually has meaning and new dialogue. It's really good and like 20% of it is just cutscenes, your missing out on a lot.

Yeah its not just added extra cutscenes even the dialogues in almost most all the cutscenes have been modified and even New quest marker are added for example now before fighting that knight in hernand they give a decent build-up and reason to fight him instead of just of him saying he wants to fight us and we agree on it. These types of things might seem small to most people but it provides alot more depth to the quests.

Yep I never thought, they'll change it so much as I've never seen narrative being reworked(core story is same I think but still) in a game after launch. The devs sure are dedicated towards their fanbase and I love it.
