1. Old intro cutscene. I made a separate post about this before, but to reiterate the important part, I think the old intro is better at establishing the setting of Raven Brooks and it's residents, along with Quentin as a character and his initial suspicions around Ted. Also you should bring back the scene of the Guest attacking the barn in some way. 2. Window and Crowbar animations. I get that they were probably removed for being too slow and clunky but on the other hand I honestly feel like there was some realism and engagement with them before that now feels absent, with the crowbar now being too fast and the windows being too slow as of Patch 5. Therefore I propose a new version of their mechanics: In both instances you only need to hold down the use key for ~1-2ish seconds and Quentin will perform the action in one swift motion, therefore keeping the engagement of the Beta and the general pace of the final game. Also, they should make Quentin use the crowbar with two hands again instead of the one-handed "swordfighting" one in the final game that just looks dumb. 3. Make it so the "Museum Intro" or whatever it's called from the Beta and the beginning of the Soundtrack plays on Night 1 when you approach the Museum.
