Not saying I dislike them, but I would prefer if they tried something new and different, even if it is just changing how S-Links work, as there wasn't any difference between P3 and P4 in how they were handled. Sticking with social links just because it's expected doesn't appeal to me personally.
And I would debate how optional they are. They're featured very prominently, and party member skills and highest tier personas are tied to them. It's like saying you could play without fusion, which you CAN, but it hampers you significantly and you miss out on a lot of bonuses. Maybe not to the same degree, but it still affects the game.
