Yeah, I tend to agree almost literally in every point.
The game is a bit the jack of all trades. It has something for everyone. This game is just stuffed with LIs without being a harem game. I suspect that latest oversized girl was introduced to keep the Victoria fans occupied. With so many girls fans of a certain one will never be satisfied.
And everything being optional in the game surely has its perks (you only need one playthrough to see everything) but it also takes away any form of meaning or depth. You get choices to see a scene or not - and that's it. The story with that char will proceed exactly the same, no matter what you do. You can tell a girl 9 times to hit the road and she still will go to bed with you on the 10th time.
By now I learned to accept it and just go with the flow. Besides the pop culture references (they should have focused more on that, at least Wendy is a new attempt) I think the real treasure of this game are the renders. After I finish the story for a season, I unpack the resource files to find the bet pinup wallpapers. And Molly has some good ones, but I want more
