For me, Mike was too similar to Oliver. Well... In Oliver's case, he likes to humiliate MC / rub it in his face. Meanwhile with Mike, he didn't give a shit about MC at all. However the problem with Mike is that his role in the story is... limited. What can he bring if Oliver is already here?
As such, I think it was a nice idea to remove him from the story and use him to remind Laura + MC that their games can also have bad consequences as it's always possible to run into an asshole.
Moreover, the story often goes with MC / Laura doing something together before Laura does it with a bull (ex: anal, creampie), so it's possible that his girlfriend will be used as well in order to start group sex: Laura + Mike's girlfriend having fun with MC, taking pictures and sending some blurred ones to Mike to piss him off.
But as for Mike himself, I think his role is the story is already over.
