If you're referring to this:
This is actually the replay gallery. You can choose to "dream" when you go to sleep and replay something you've already seen.

Hate to break it to you, but wasting time is kind of the entire point. These games are pastimes, ways to pass the time unproductively. Entertaining ways to waste time. Porn games just add to the usual by also potentially wasting tissue paper.
However, dream scenes often serve a purpose. Sometimes it is simply to provide some sexy scenes at a time when it wouldn't be logical or consistent with the story to have an actual sex scene. Effectively, fan service. In this game however, dream scenes are the mechanism for the replay gallery.
How much of the game am I missing by disabling NTR? Is it a main focus or just something that happens once or twice?

No, they're a waste of story time that bog down the pace of the story with events that don't matter. Like filler episodes in anime, but worse. Fill the story with meaningful events that move the story forward at a decent pace. We already know that entertainment, by its very nature, is a "waste of time" - though that could open up an interesting discussion about how boredom can drive a person nuts.

Any chance of a walkthrough mod? The game being sandbox makes following the out-of-game walkthrough difficult at best and impossible at worst
Fixed: Can now vandalise Brett’s ride home from the building site at 14:00 more than once as intended.
If I'm there at your time, there's nothing there. What are you supposed to do if you can't click anything?

NTR is a major focus of the game if it is enabled. The game will start with NTR, and their will be regular, repeating NTR events that seek to corrupt all the housemates, all of the time.
Probably about a 50/50. Haven't counted the scenes but with what was in and how the changelogs have been lately probably a fairly safe guess.
For what it's worth though last time I checked them not all, but most of the NTR scenes are just a single angle of a single animation and maybe an extra few renders. The MC scenes overall get a lot more work into them as I remember it.
With only a few exceptions, and a few avoidable scenes that don't actually work with the toggle, it really isn't in your face though. Game's worth playing for vanilla players as long as you like the models, just maybe not worth playing every single update.

Not really, no.
The way the game is structured, as an open world with potentially thousands of different situations, positions, etc the MC could choose to be, the existing built-in system is about as good as it can get. A walkthrough needs to know what you want to achieve in order to tell you how to get there, while in this game there's a huge cast you may choose to pursue or not, to watch get corrupted, or not, and that all means a simple walkthrough just isn't possible.
Also this games animation is super underrated. Tbh some of the best scenes in these types of games

Is the NTR storyline really completely different from non-NTR storyline? In the beginning of the game, it seems like non-NTR storyline just the same as NTR storyline without the NTR scene.

The story is the same, its just that with NTR enabled you have to be very careful what choices you select because one wrong move and the girls are taken by someone else.
No matter your affection stat, you are one dialogue choice from NTR pretty frequently.

Both things are built-in about as good as they could be. You can't have a simple walkthrough on a game that has almost infinite path options. There are many characters you can have scenes with and might not want to, and those can vary by stats, what other paths you've taken, and more. A Walkthrough has to know exactly where you are, and where you want to go, to tell you a clear path from A to B. This game has scores of locations, varying by time of day and day of week, relationship stats, corruption stats, progress flags, and tons and tons and tons of choices. Hundreds of possible alternate paths already when you work out all the possible permutations.
The Cheat menus that are built in lets you adjust stats, paths, etc. Even to the extent of breaking the game if you mess with them without knowing exactly what they do.
