First thing I want to address is how they entirely ruined the Jolanda storyline. The point of that story in 049's standalone sedition was to portray how bad his obsession with the pestilence is to the point he'd kill his own adoptive daughter who he practically raised. We also see it with Dr. Hamm in the og article but by having 035 kill Jolanda I fear it removes the drasticality of the original story and I fear they only added that for the shock factor, rather than the actual impact. That entire sedition felt like "how evil we can make 035 for no other reason than for people to feel sorry for 049 and angstslop" to make 049's own actions more forgettable and thus ruining the whole reason that story existed: again, to show how far his obsession went with the pestilence. This fandom has had a problem with babying 049 ever since he was written and I fear this does not help the cause.

The communal sedition we were promised was 049 and 035 alone, in the original trailer 3 years ago and then it was revealed they were adding 079 which I thought could've been an amusing trio.. But then they added 343? There I sort of got a bit mad. I feel they have nothing to do with one another. 049 and 035 obviously have a long long history, even in the original 049 article, but 079 and 343 paired with them? 343 just comes across as insufferable everytime he speaks and it was very hard to sit through his dialogue I found. I watched this with my girlfriend and 3 of my friends and we all nearly skipped through his dialogue

079 barely opened his mouth to speak unless if it was to talk about "Oh where's 682🥺" rather than ALL his other motives. Even his desire camera and greatest desire instead of the whole adapting into humanity it was "Was it 682?". I understand how deep their bond is, especially with their own communal sedition, but 079 is his own SCP also and I wanted to learn more about him but I fear all I got was information about 682 when he wasn't even there? The same goes for 343.

Speaking of dialogue before I get to more mischarcaterisation: It felt the entire sedition, again, was about how evil they can make 035 yet doing it poorly. Everybody in that communal sedition is morally gray in my eyes, but it felt like they just were attacking 035. Everytime they all yelled and attack 035 where was their comebacks like they had in the og 035 sedition? They just sat there and took it rather than giving some sassy and sarcastic comeback, it also felt like for a theatre mask they had no theatrics at all this time. Compare the og sedition 035 to this one and you'll see what I mean. The entire backstory of 035 was word for word a copy of the og 035 sedition, I learned literally nothing knew. Watch tries to "keep things civil" but its only for the others. Everybody is so mean to 035 but the second they opens their mouth they attack them, but for anybody else Watch says nothing at all.

Personally I feel they mostly villainslopped 035 because "Oh we need a villain so let's take it out on 035 ONLY to 049 so he can look so innocent" WHICH, AGAIN, FURTHERS INTO HOW THIS FANDOM BABYS 049. I personally, maybe, would've tolerated the Jolanda twist if they wrote it better but why, oh why wouldn't 049 in his og sedition say "Oh yeah 035 killed my daughter" if they actually did rather than saying to Jacobs "Oh yeah I killed my daughter for the disease I preach so dearly and how my actions are just so justified"? Once more repeating myself but it felt like they just threw it on for shock value rather than actual lore, plot and substance. That whole part of the video it just felt like "Oh I did this to 049 and I LOVEDDD IT, IM SO EVIL AND I LOVE IT, I DONT CARE AT ALL" despite the fact they show care for killing random people and all their victims in the og sedition which really gives 035 some more charcater I felt. They threw that out of the window entirely.

Plus the animation quality is so poor, they don't care anymore and I fear they only want the money from patreon, YouTube donations and views. The lipsyncing of 343 was rather poor, not to mention the 049 model changed where his beak is obnoxiously long and he is glossy? And the most obvious thing being how 035 doesn't even fit on their host's head and at times clips through.

My last point, maybe may add to this later, but the part where it's "Oh what scps should we interview next" and 049 picks the most random scps it makes me feel like it's AI generated? Maybe that's a me thing but while they are scps that speak it felt so out there. That's why I left that last point there, maybe a more personal gripe.
