I take it you've watched some of the cutscenes. What do you think?

It depends. Some miss the point entirely. I think Silent Cartographer is a downgrade in the cinematic language telling the story.

Here's another downgrade: In the original, "I think we're just getting started" has the camera pull back to show the fighter drifting in the vastness of space, slowly becoming a speck against the infinite cosmos. How will he get home? In Campaign Evolved? A close up where the MC takes off his helmet, then cuts to black. The music doesn't even get to finish. Completely ruins the emotional weight of the ending.
