The iconic opening narration is gone now and we lose a whole lot of flavor right of the bat. They axed the old intro cutscene and replaced it with a new "interactive" intro (read: 5 minutes of "gameplay" where you get to walk around a tiny apartment that is entirely designed around cramming as many silly easter eggs per square pixel into it as possible), without realising that an intro is used for, well, INTRODUCING you to things - in this case our main antagonist SHODAN, who also served as a narrator during the original intro, where she left us with the delightfully foreboding "The hacker's work is finished, but mine is only just beginning.", perfectly setting the stage for the ensuing carnage. I liked the addition of a shrine to SHODAN in the reactor level It's not the worst game ever, but people are considerably more forgiving about its shortcomings than they ought to be.
