I've played a bit now. I really like the new content. Content-wise this beats the original.
I'm not a big fan of the interface in the mod vs the original. A fat border around every button makes it look more clunky than it needs to. I'm missing the faces on each location signifying where the characters are as well. Being able to collapse the areas is nice, it would be nice if it was never the standard. I preferred the button placement of the original as well, but to be honest that doesn't really matter.
Lines that MC is thinking vs saying being colored differently is a nice touch that annoyed me was missing in the original. There are a few of the lines MC is thinking that could've made sense being said out loud, so the distinction is nice.
Regarding the phone. I like the cheat mod improvements. If you just wanna experience the content without following the story this makes it a lot easier.
I dislike the shop changes. That's a very minor thing however(I prefer an overview instead of 1 item per page).
I wanna stress out as much as I can however that content means more than interface and I'd play this any day over the original. Some of the features of 0.9.1 are missing, but that's to be expected and will probably be there in the next version of the mod.
I'm gonna love exploring the rest of this mod.
