supplementscene: I seem to remember the puzzles are less logical and there is loads of running/walking between scenes. That and the annoying robbot continually saying 'Kate Walker'.
The transitions were indeed annoying, especially playing on a console.
But every game has its faults, Syberia included, but overall it's a brilliant game.
supplementscene: BTW Broken Sword Directors Edition has some new puzzles that you get to play through as Nicole.
Unfortunately, yes.
And while that doesn't send that version straight to hell, it goes from "one of the best ever made" to "kinda nice, mediocre". Those new puzzles really don't fit in, and Nicole's parts are really breaking the entire story structure.
Play the original, please.
