Their personalities. Like XL is already kind hearted in the original. But in the revised, its like his kindness is on another level that he feels less of a character and more of an ideal if you get what i mean. MQ is another one. I do understand why hes more softer in words here because he doesnt experience bullying all that jazz. But his story arc becomes less interesting. I like that their Mulian moments are sweeter but it would have been more bittersweet and impactful if his original background and the conflicts still remains untouched. Also i just miss bitchy petty MQ 😭 Dont get me started on FX, most of his lines are cut off too and imo, hes already the most underdeveloped out of the trio before lol. Also alot of fq conflicts are cut out so its like ://// i mean if there were new scenes added sure i can get behind it but like it just gets cut :/ again, wheres the conflict??? Wheres the complexitiy of the trio?? If youre curious to know the name of the tumblr user, i can share with you here. Its fortune-maiden. DISCLAIMER : this is just my OPINION. sorry but tgcf fandom needs this reminder because theres alot of dumb asswipes here lol
ooo i actually saw the posts by that acc! but i saved it for when i got the time to read again, and i'm reading it now for you anon. i haven't read all of it, but i get the frustration so far. the way i saw the revised version based on translations i see around from chinese speakers (like clearnoodlestranslation, spiritsofthekiln) is mxtx does seems like she want to focus it more on hualian (which isn't really bad imo). honestly i already saw it from the og but at least the side characters still got enough backstory to show their own narratives you know? (contrary to just be a throw in character).
i really hope it gets an official english translations so we all can enjoy it and analyze it together because a lot of the analysis i found for now is pretty biased (including fortune-maiden, which they admit it themselves!) so i'm going to hold my tongue for now HAHA

I wanna go on a mini rant…but ive been folllowing this person on tumblr who are giving their commentary on the revised version. And honestly…… the story feels more dull. Other than the main couple cute moments which i love, but like the characters feels so santized…including the mc himself. Like i love the new Mulian moments and hualian and medic Mu qing but….
ohh can i see it? i get what you mean though, but i guess it'll be easier if we can get the revised officially translated because seeing bits and pieces is a bit tricky to make me understand the story. which part do you feel sanitized btw, because i haven't read the new brocade immortal arc but i do know ling wen didn't kill anyone at the end(?) and qi rong no longer feeds on corpse/bodies right? now those two did make me frowns a bit but i need to think about it more.
