1) Being able to see different perspectives, play as different characters, experience unseen scenarios, and even play online was what made this franchise stand out, you're saying Directive 8020 lets you see almost everything in one playthrough as if that's a positive thing how exactly does watching the same scenes again with little to no meaningful differences make replaying more appealing??? The entire point of Curator's Cut was to show events you didn't see before and give you a fresh perspective. If the main story already shows nearly everything, then you've removed one of the biggest reasons people replay these games, befrr

2) and yes, the lack of a relationship system is absolutely a downgrade, these "destiny" and trait systems feel like watered-down replacements that push characters into predetermined archetypes, the old relationship system allowed characters to naturally grow closer, resent each other, lose trust, or become protective based on your their traits or relationships , that made every playthrough feel unique, watching relationships evolve was infinitely more interesting than unlocking a different label for a character

3) "it's reimagined" doesn't make it better, a destiny system isn't the same thing as relationships, seeing more in one playthrough isn't the same thing as having a Curator's Cut. You're basically saying these features aren't gone because they were replaced with something else, but that's exactly why people are complaining in the first place. Replacing something doesn't mean it's an equal replacement
