There are many things in this game so far that you can see that he didn't know what to do after and gave some really bad solution, ending. If he was fully conscious of his decisions, being as detailed as he seem to be, He wouldn't give those shabby outcomes. It is clearly a decision made by someone who started doing something because they thought it would be cool, but later on didn't know how to handle or what to do with it. I know you guys will try to argument and defend DPC at any cost, but I can see many flaws already. He started this project with one thing in mind, but the game got a certain fame, became somewhat successful, that he started adding things based on that success and it is clearly seen after episode 6-7.
All the minigames that came after, the way he tried to change brawler and is now adding a fight competition to MC, which is obviously an idea he got from other games. Such as A man for all, Unbroken, the other college one that we usually compare to BAD, they all had this fight competition in their plot in the first place, now he is adding on his own game. DO you think he had it planned back there? The music gig aswell, do you think he had it planned back then? I am sure he didn't.
He changed a lot of what he had planned as he started adding new stuff into the game. It happens with a lot of creators. It sometimes cause them to lose focus. He himself said something similar back in the day. He said that he started learning new things and he wanted to mess with it for a lil bit. THat is something that he didn't plan previously, but decided to add as he started to learning more. With that, the complexity of the game has grown and now he has more stuff to take care of and deal with that wasn't previously planned. If you can't see something so obvious I don't know what to tell you.
And as the guy said, I also can't see a good ending for this. I can already see a certain quality decrease in the storyline, even in the interaction with certain characters. In my mind, I feel like he is a little lost, without knowing what to do, Reason why the updates are moving more towards mini games and free roams. A VN where every episode content has become 70% of games and only 30% story progression. The solutions given to certain plots has been very disappointing and some storyline has become poorer. My opinon though.
