I've been thinking about how they can salvage the whole thing and one way, without doing the retarded "The AI lied LOL! It's actually just like the matrix" thing, would be to have the other characters not be just simulations - have them be similar to the MC.A lot of people like narrative context in their porn. I am one of them. This is one area traditional porn generally doesn't provide but many porn games do. Although, with varying degrees of quality.
And "It was all just a dream/simulation" usually invalidates most of the preceeding narrative unless handled carefully. Which is why it is such a hated plot device in most forms of fiction.
This game actually was doing a good job at the narrative context of the pornographic scenes. There were fairly realistic relationship developments between the main character and the love interests by the standards of porn games. The character's motivations for being willing to engage in escalating sexual acts were developed well enough.
Up until the plot went off the rails anyway. And then the "It was all just a simulation" twist was handled in exactly a way as to invalidate all of the previous narrative and character relationships. It turned out they weren't even actually characters at all, just NPCs in a simulation.
And to top it off, it was an incest harem game but then the ending went all "actually, not incest after all". Which is certainly a late game bait and switch for the people who are into that. That particular kink being something the developers are known for as indicated by their name Inceton.
Good news for you though, I guess. With this game Inceton seems to now be catering more towards people like yourself who just want some CGI porn.
Carol could try and stop the simulation only to fail because these entities she tried to model as accurately as possible don't want to be deleted and resist. Then it could become a quest to restore these girls missing memories and personalities so that they become truly like him - BOOM! Done! And you can even tie it in to the Megan POV from season 1 by having her be the first "quest" because she has the strongest will.
But... if I were a betting man...
