Thank you Adywan for that amazing clip.  The colour and compositions look incredible and, as always, with all the changes it still "feels" like how Star Wars should.

A few points that stood out:

The binocular POV shot looks fantastic.  I really like the visible people in the AT-AT cockpit - it gives a great impression of the rebel commander staring into the face of his enemy (perhaps General Veers in this case) before the attack.

The AT-STs were a genuine surprise, and a big THANK YOU for leaving them in.  The apparent decision to remove them was my biggest objection to all the ESB:R changes.

The first shot of the walkers looks nicer than before, but now shows them quite a bit more defined as opposed to specks on the horizon.  This to me slightly diminishes the impact of the subsequent binocular view, which previously served as a reveal.  Were they brought closer for continuity reasons?

As others have pointed out, the blast marks on the second AT-AT can still be seen appearing out of nowhere at 1:33

The saturated red lights that people have complained about are IMO a good thing.  Part of the visual theme of Star Wars is that most shots have a prominent coloured light somewhere, whether on a droid, a wall panel or a laser blast, etc, which gives a sense of the pervasiveness of technology everywhere in this universe.
