It's the same game, just with a load of QoL improvements, and iirc a few of the expansion chapters come free. Biggest change is combat and targeting... idk if I can explain it well without making it sound like trash, but instead of click-to-target, you have to aim your character at the thing you're fighting, which sounds clunky, but you get used to it in a hurry - it makes combat much more fluid. Also all the currencies from various factions you could acquire in the base game, 90% of which were obsolete, have been consolidated back down a more reasonable number.
I started on TSW back in the day; switched to SWL. If I ever get the itch to dive back in, it will 100% be for SWL.
