I agree. This Castiel just feels so cold compared to MCL!Castiel. The thought that we'd have to start all over and break down his walls again just sound exhausting at this point. I feel like they just hit the reset button on all his character development
I dont know if I have that level of patience to spend another 7 years working with Castiel to get him to that point again? Where he’s sweet and kind and caring and willing to drop his walls around not only candy but people he considers friends that he trusts? Especially contending with the fact there may be another Deborah like character on hand to add in for extra drama, and to just remind you that your choices ultimately didn’t change a thing. It’s like they forgot who they made him become. And after claiming he was the most popular character too, only to buy 40 story replays and start from episode 1 again.
If they wanted new players to go back to square one with Castiel, they’d direct them towards episode 1 of MCL, and work from there. They shouldn’t be putting existing players through this all over again. And even if the line he gives could be interpreted as directed towards a candy who didnt date him in high school... the only difference between the romance and not was the romance. He still opened up as a friend, still grew as a person, and changed considerably. Castiel’s character still grew, romance or no.
