But the weirdness and plot twist is much thicken as according to director and the true version of the Final Sea of Memories is the cruelest things that players will have to face the truth beyond the possibility.
 * This will finally has made a connection with .hack//Link -Chrono Gear- although it is made to be indirectly and adds a new weight of mystery plots until at the true version of the Final Sea of Memories will begin to understand the truth behind their appearance in the later entries like .hack//Link 2 through ReCODE: The Infinity World of the God which their roles is makes much more sense how it has happen and possibly leads up to .hack//Link -The War of the Twilight-.
 * Several cutscenes which been adds-on has few numerous foreshadowing on Tokio's character which are connected to .hack//Link -ChaosWort-, along with the first mentioned about the outer MAMA organization called New Order.

Point-Of View
The Point-of View and Perspective cutscenes has been added to the game, exclusively for Saika Amagi and Akira Kuryuu (Geist) which intentionally to explore more different side perspectives of the characters which didn't even presented in the original, including increased the three-dimensional characters narratives which adds a new layer and understanding depth character background and intention behind their actions in RISING GEAR which can be explored in a lot new emotions, expressions, and gestures.

Saika Amagi
Saika Amagi story and characters is more tragic, this version will tries to bringing her character into much deeper background and what it's all ties together, also exploring a new side of her personality and never-seen before perspective of her during the storyline which gives us more deeply pity and sympathize with her action, especially how her story also connected with .hack//Link -RISING GEAR- The Calamity of the White Flower, also her strong attachments and affection toward Tokio which is also the main focus to her characters development throughout stories also a deep self-conflicted, guilt, depression, and PTSD issues.

Akira Kuryuu (Geist)
For Akira is in the most special circumstances, especially how he's true name as Geist told his origin story of how he arrived in Akashic World which is how it supposedly to be a sequel of his story from Chrono Gear also bringing the directly leads toward the true version of the Final Chapter, while bringing the results of all his development from RIVES to RISING GEAR which brings definition of his existence as a characters that could follow his own path with no regrets and his choice, this also brought a definitive missing link toward the game as well, but this given his characters to shine and developed which how his story is majorly leads up within .hack//Bullet -Versus Magician- and .hack//Link -Chrono Gear- RE: ENTER.

AIKA
Now for AIKA is in a very special treatment of her point of views, which is deeply powerful characters development throughout a main plots, as a new story cutscenes is not just new interaction between her and Tokio, but also shows of her point-of view and perspective as how she developed a sense of doubts toward a glitches memories that she had just remembered and thinking if it was a memories of the past or something that has yet to happen, however unexpected things can also happens as the story progress, including how it leads to AIKA's betrayal, also how her perspective and her lost memories seems to have very connection with .hack//Link -Chrono Gear-.

But this soon is also gonna be revealed at the Final Chapter of the game, but AIKA might not appeared in the first two parts of the Final Chapter Ver. 2.108821208..... but in the third chapter, she will.

The Executors
Surprisingly for the Executors features their own perspective POV cutscenes tells the untold stories behind the scene of the events in RISING GEAR, while also given more chance to fleshed out their characters, their uniqueness and complexity which never even shown in the base game, there's serious, hilarious and some of the most cliffhanger that foreshadow or connected toward something. But this also fleshed out the weirdness and strange through the dialogues lines about them as a "Outsider" which brought a new puzzles and mystery about how they were not a some NPC created from the memories, but rather their origins from the outside and this also explored the possibility connection between this trilogy and canon-universe .hack which including .hack//Link -Chrono Gear-.

Helos-Pierce
Now for the records of Helos-Pierce who always been a major antagonist in all trilogies, but his characters is not so about good or evil because how he is also one of the characters who had no side boundaries of it's characterization and even has his own complex characters. He can be enemies or allies, however, he has his own secret agenda to follow on his schedule and why he so deeply interested with Tokio for all of people, but his POV cutscenes is not just about telling untold story behind the scene of the events, but also giving opportunity to gives several bits about his background characters and origins, and his dialogue lines might has foreshadowing his interest to recruit the players behind Tokio when the time arrived which deeply foreshadowing what's going happen in .hack//Link -ChaosWort-.


 * But his POV cutscenes also has a mysterious connection between him and Davis, also it allows us to discovered something that never even told before that will change the "certain" character direction forever, while also adds foreshadow tidbits toward his involvement later in .hack//Link 2, .hack//ReCODE -The Infinity God of the World- and .hack//Link -The War of the Twilight-.

Genius
Genius is major characters in RISING GEAR who at first half that he's the one who requested Chrono Guild for a cooperation, but turns out to be the one who responsible behind the Massacre of the Players Tragedy by using Saika Amagi on her role as ENTIES also as a final bosses in the original base game of RISING GEAR. But the twist has come turn the table as his POV cutscenes can be presented as story reaching the second half and several plot twist, unexpected directions and more would be revealed as the game progresses, but one of the most important things that Genius has alter-amnesia or some kind like a Deja Vu that caused the other side memories that collides with his current memories which is part of the mystery that given us and clues can be find as the story move forwards, his perspective of his other side of memories has a very connection with Canon-Universe of .hack and .hack//Link -Chrono Gear-.


 * While the POV cutscenes will brings more opportunity to fleshed out his character more than in the original version of RISING GEAR, explaining the origins of his characters and more which might not part of Akashic World but something that connected to the Outside, since he's also came from the Outside as well.
 * Everything of his amnesia would be clear in the true version of the Final Chapter: The Final Sea of the Memories which the brought another new plot twist that brings his connection to the Outside become clearer than before.

Mereleona
Mereleona POV cutscene has new scales to fleshed out her characters that the base game wouldn't even do that and explores a new side of her characters asides from her seriousness side of her character, which seems there's more than her just what it already presented in the trilogy and even in RISING GEAR, director seems interested to adds more new depth toward not just her story and characters development, also a new side of her activities, hobbies, and more which she has her own unique and characteristic than other character has which is the most surprising addition to the game which her character been re-establish to make players and fans understand her more better through her expression, information, gestures, and more which is not just go through the words of it, but they would like her more in this new version of the game.


 * But Mereleona also has establish background of how she ever regret about her past doings which she had committed to, but her past seems has something that fans need to look forward in .hack//Link -RISING- while also adds a new parts of her story that also impacted her roles and character development better.
 * Hidden silliness background, and more is something that she didn't even show it to everyone, including how she has more hidden personality asides of her seriousness character, unexpected characters makes you like and sympathize with her characters more than what fans had thought about her in the trilogy and base game, which is a life-changing and exceed fans expectation about her.
 * Few POV cutscenes has a hidden cutscenes, foreshadowing, and unexpected plots development that could lead toward each of the cutscenes, some important question which could be answer through her Point-of View cutscenes.

Slayer
Slayer POV cutscenes is special and brings more opportunity to fleshed out his background, characters, stories, and his connection to Saika Amagi and her mother Ayaka Amagi since he's a biological father of her, while exploring what happens following the DLC Scenario, .hack//Link -RISING GEAR- The Bloody of Flower as the start of her hate and feud against him, her own father whom she had felt depressed and anger for abandoning her mother when she needed him the most which is mostly how his guilt continues on and on without ever stopping, these also explores a new backstories between him and Ayaka through mentioned and some few scenes regarding about the two of them.


 * A new quality of his characterization is how in the outside he look intimidating, but inside how he tries so hard to protect her daughter and hopefully she could be free from killing life and sins she had committed which seems there's a new theme of his characters who had so much bear and responsibility as a father and aware how much Jyotaro is meant to her and even Tokio as well, while there's a new side of her characters how for example explaining the way he used to as a father to her when she was born and how he was different back then as he used to be hate a kids, until Ayaka thought him.
 * Another new fact that Ayaka and him first met during their junior high school, while Ayaka is a transfer student same as her daughter did and he came up fall in love with her, but her mother used to be rough same as Saika did, but she change for time as she spent time with him, showing her true personality as kinder, optimistic and open which how they've fall in love, until he accidentally impregnate her and they got married during their 19-years old.
 * He described Ayaka as the rough and annoying, but she's the most beautiful girl he ever fall with ever since she been transferred into his classroom, she always be the one who supported him and didn't even blame him even he left her, and following what happened to her wife and Saika is the most painful and sinful that he ever committed and something that he had failed toward his responsibility as a husband and wife, and even today, he couldn't forgive himself for what happen to Saika, but decide to protect her daughter since she only one he had.
 * But POV also shows something unexpected, where all those memories that fans had thought that was exist in Akashic World soon revealed was truly reality in a possibility how he also came from the Outside, but the reason why he left Ayaka and Saika is different due to someone altered his memories. This truth will revealed in the true version of the Final Sea of the Memories, where all these question will finally revealed, but no one could escape the cruelty of what comes after to Saika afterwards.

Dr. Octa Asgrodia
Octa POV is much few, but it is important as other characters like Saika for example although his role has been expanded with a new story arc and even with the story cutscenes which creating subtle mystery surround him which he could be much a secret antagonist, but there's more that could expand of him as well as he's intentionally to be developed as a complex major characters and secret antagonist behind the scene in RISING GEAR, but POV cutscenes will uncovered something even terrifying than how he was in the game, ever since he has more knowledge what happen in Akashic World than what people and even Tokio along with his friend even thinking, and it is hard to predict behind his action and role he appeared in this game, but he's true nature will revealed in at the end of the true Final Chapter as how it teased his roles as a twisted complex antagonist in .hack//Link -ChaosWort- as how he responsible on many things happened, including how he made Saika to become a Killer as ENTIES under his script through Genius.


 * His characters is remain mystery, however, as according in the event of .hack//Link 2 of how he was already been killed by Schwarz although his influenced and his action is deeply impacted in the future entry, and teased his return in .hack//Link -ChaosWort-. At first how he was a weakling and coward characters in all trilogy, until in reality, he was even smarter and genius, not just in programming but also for doing his plan without making his hand dirty and acted as a innocent Doctor to observe the events.
 * And his POV cutscenes is a mysteriously challenging for fans to find clue behind his action through all trilogies, but as player progressing through games and just slowly and slowly all things revealed through his hidden expression and gestures as part teased what's coming next.

Kite
Now for Kite is also important main characters in this game as well as his role being extended in this new version, while there's a new POV cutscenes prior to he being freed from time stone where he has a vision that he never even saw this before which is pretty strange and revealing a twist that he's from the Outsider as well along with Haseo, Tsukasa and few other characters who were trapped in Akashic World due to system error cataclysm which caused their VR being transported into another world areas which they've mistakenly called by Aura, and this shown a new possibility and brings a strong clues about how this even leads to the true Final Chapter of RISING GEAR, but what happen in this event brought so much questions what he didn't even aware about conspiracy, and outside knowledge about what he knows in the past that linked to Harald Hoerwick and Emma Wielant as the reason why he join with MAMA to find the truth what he had saw in Akashic World which was how he later appeared in .hack//Link 2.


 * While his perspective cutscenes also includes a brand-new interaction with other characters from Chrono Guild, Schicksal, other Twilights Knights and Legion Unity, including a new callbacks from the events of .hack//Link -Chrono Link- The Twilight Knights discovered something that outside of boundaries that he had known in the past and about Aura as well which seems more mystery is much bigger and wider than he had thought from the very beginning in the first .hack titles.

Twilight Knights
Each important characters from Twilight Knights has their own unique POV cutscenes during cutscenes which can be a new moments, callback from previous titles, and more, but it has more opportunity to fleshed out new character developments and closures which never even deeply explored in the past titles and it's a satisfying one, it's something that brings all things together through past and what's come in the future. While they had important roles in the story, there's also biggest cliffhanger that left us wondering about them more and each past characters had their own traits and development perspective stories over the past years of their last involvement toward incident and gives new depth characterization for brand-new cutscenes and for POV cutscenes.

Cut-Content Story Cutscenes
The RISING GEAR Ver. 2.01821208..... featured all cutscenes which been cut or scrapped from the final product development of the base game, which is now been reworked, improvised and updated in order to fit it's visionalize storyline direction of RISING GEAR which now been implemented to the game, also it is intended to completing the missing link of the storyline which is also got cut from the base game and it gives a perfect symbolize of how redone cut-content cutscenes will fit to their true vision of the storyline which had been more than just perfect.


 * Over 35 scenes which been cut from the original which has been revitalize, improves and updated from the original cut-contents, while also incorporated the stories to maintain it's fit toward the story, while bringing director's true envisioned story to the game which are been longed to be added to the game and is also now been incorporated with the additional new cutscenes as well.
 * While it can be considered as a Director's Cut, however, it is somehow completely more and different from what fans might had realize as due to improvised and redone the scene is also adds a new weight emotions, layer story themes, and more, given a new deep representation and expression to the storyline.
 * Tokio's missing characterization cutscenes is now been address in this game, which how the cut-content cutscenes has been redone to fit the narrative of the storyline which showing how his character superior from the original, given a never seen before development from the original which was never even added in the original, in a while there's also other characters, including Saika which been address as well and can be foreshadow or teased during the story progression.

Bug and Glitches Memories
Bug and Glitches Memories is a mysterious types of memories for new cutscenes which features something that majorly unknown phenomenon that were implemented in Tokio's mind which he could see the vision that he had never saw before, but it those leaving those scenes in cliffhanger until it got it's answer in the true version of the Final Sea of the Memories. At the start of the game which the mysterious memories was considered from him as the vision of the future events that could take place during Re: IMMORTAL DUSK which how it does important to the main story, but the progression of the story will leads the inevitable questions and twist as how the cutscenes of the futures turns different than what he had imagined to happen, or whether it is because he had changed the future or something he didn't even aware about this raises several question of it. Also purposely to catch players attention to the plots and glitches memories that become a main key to the story

Tokio Kuryuu will experiencing the bug and glitches memories from the beginning of the story in a brand-new story cutscenes and even adds a new parts scenes in the existing story cutscenes through glitches and bug through screen in his eyes, as he witnessed the scene events that didn't even happened or somehow didn't exist which how for the starter it was exactly the vision of the future, until it plays differently than he had expected or it wasn't at the beginning.


 * Memories of Glitches and Bug is actually has something that could connected and ties to .hack//Link -Chrono Gear- altogether which is a mystery that comes surround in The World system itself.
 * The reason is how the events that portrays in this game storyline is didn't even exist or feeling different along with characters missing been noticed which it shown how it became a new types of major twist direction that gives us a clues toward main plots and goes through to the Final Chapter.
 * It is also how players at first will be confused as why Chrono Gear cutscenes was in the Bug & Glitches Memories cutscene even this game is a reboot story of the original game, which is how a new mystery and plots has been connected to each other, but it's like putting all puzzles together as one and soon be revealed in the Final Chapter as well.
 * [SPOILER ALERT!!] The memories that was presented in the Bug & Glitches Memories is actually Saika's memories which was happened in the original events of IMMORTAL DUSK instead Re: IMMORTAL DUSK which where .hack//Link -Chrono Gear- been took place brings a reason why the memories of future turns out to be more different than what he had imagined, and how her memories being implemented to Tokio is unknown.
 * Players are recommended to watch .hack//Link -RISING- in order to learn the origins of those cutscenes and unlocked the mystery behind of it as well, while the scenes from RISING is also would be presented, but the face will left fans and players in ambiguous ways until they watched the anime series.
 * Director explained, the reason why the original version of .hack//Link or even .hack//Link -Chrono Gear- connected to this game, because it is a key important as how the story development's been played out and the reason why it all become make sense in .hack//Link 2 to later anime project, The War of the Twilight, which is why everything is all coming together as how he also appeared in .hack//Link 2 as a main antagonist as Schwarz which brought a new mystery to the plots and lore connected to the franchise.
 * This also brings a reason directors wanted to make fans mistakenly taken this as a reboot storyline of .hack//Link, because how they deeply wanting to fool the players expectation and their vision to the story, while taken realistic approach knowledge meanings about "The story of Reboot" which Akashic World, Timeline restart in different direction and more is basically based themes of the settings story of Reboot, but in truth it is actually canon in .hack universe from the very beginning.

 * While also brings the turning points behind the crucial events between IMMORTAL DUSK and Re: IMMORTAL DUSK which deeply connected to each other in a different version of it, bringing to the two version of the events play outs that connected to what comes before and what comes after, however, the Thanatos Report also has a deep insight behind to the story between MAMA organization and the secret organization, the New Order that goes bound toward their ends.
 * Bringing the way how this was developed through coincidence or not, but the possibility how this all connected is that the Akashic World is the world of reboot due to Saika's memories which been projected to all data, including how .hack//Link -RISING- might give a deep insight to this conversation.
 * Epilogue episode also shows a new story focuses on Helos-Pierce in his own perspective that leads to the anime project.
 * This also very well connected to the .hack//Link -ChaosWort- while it was purposely to tease and leads to those titles, and lead to The War of the Twilight.

 * HINT: Although it didn't connected to even .hack//Link -The War of the Twilight- or even .hack//Link -The Final Twilight- however they will connected to this, but this was something keep left in the dark which significantly introduced a new lores that never even foreshadow before.
