Well, yeah... some girl-branches are not necessary at all, but with "branches" iam not just talking about getting lewd scenes... There are a freaking a lot branches in the game without girls involved. And many of those branches were not really needed... like the chessplayer dude that beat up the teacher if you encourage him to play chess. Its a small one, and kinda funny, but branches like that are really many in the game, you would be surprised how many. Every second choice in the game opens up another little branch, most of the time it just leads to some different dialogue lines along the way... but to add and follow through those branches... yeah that needs development time, and not just some hours.Do you want DPC to undo some branches...? I salute you, brother. I said a few days ago that DPC had more important things to do than create a scene for low tier bitches and I almost got crucified like Jesus... and here you are... waiting for DPC to undo some branches... DAMN!
And the chessplayer thing could have been made without adding a branch for it... well it would make it "canon" but yeah... why not? And that goes for many little branches... at least 20 or so.
