Vainamoinen: We've expressed quite a bit of discontent with the way puzzles were eradicated in Book One with the Book Five update. So that would be a prime way for RTG to tackle the problem of interactivity in Chapters anew.

LiefLayer: I tried the game today... the storytime part (that was awesome, and it was the best part of the game) now is cut to a tiny piece...
I paid for a game, now I have something else, this is really stupid. I will never buy a game before the full release again, and I will never buy a game from Red Thread Games

Vainamoinen: RTG was wavering in their judgment of the storytime part. On the one hand, they had plenty input from players who seemed to dislike/grapple with the controls and puzzles in this respect. On the other, I don't think I have seen a single person on the official RTG forums who welcomed the changes to the Storytime opening.

Dragonsphere1: I didn't play chapter 1 when it was released, I waited for the entire game to be available (and now I'm waiting for the Final Cut), but this is alarming - what did they do to the original chapter 1??

Cattie: you can find some threads at 'red thread' and steam about this topic. i played the original version up to book 3 and stopped, waiting now for the 'final cut' for pc or whatever the final version will be. so i cant compare it by myself.

looks like they removed 2 scenes and made a third one more easy (storytime - book 1). i havnt seen anyone who liked it, so the official comment (ragnar) was: "We'll probably add the original Storytime scenes back as digital extras (deleted scenes) at some point".

Vainamoinen: Well, as far as I know they DID add it as a cut scene to the PS4 version. :|
