The only thing good about this game now is the renders. the story went downhill almost 2 years ago. Now we have more crap being added to a harem game like mmf and who knows what else the dev will add now to draw in people. so yea he is partially right. The story is so convoluted and dev adding more characters and then not having time to properly keep up with the original cast. So yea great renders but the story has taken a huge shit.
Tell me, where the story is convoluted? I can agree that maybe there are a few useless characters, like the koreans and Kira..but seriously i just replayed the game all over again and here what i got from every major character
Evelyn: Trying to get promoted while dealing with a shithead ex-husband while also falling in love with her own son
Rachel: Being basically a whore for a fancy place, and trying to get out of it while being mad at MC(for going with his father when the parents divorced) and basically re-discovering her affection for MC
Lina: the story of a girl obsessed with sport that must deal with the fact that she is literally destroying her own body, while dealing with a sister who is also in love with MC
Grace: She is dealing with her absent father and an annoying "maid/babysitter"(Oksana) and being a nurse
Fiona: Her issues with people in general, her awful childhood(because of her drug-addict mother) and finally finding someone who can trust(MC)
Jennifer: Childhood friend who is doing everything she can so that her ChildHood Friend(MC) will remember her, then there is the art contest and MC has the power to destroy everything she loves(by "allowing or not" a dirty crime to happen) and based on what you choose, she may become an obsessed psycho(it's literally called Yandere Route) or just be more in love with MC.
Kira: A random cop in love with Evelyn with MC that can either "purge/wipe" the homosexuality out of her or help her to get together with his own mother
these are the main girls...their stories don't seem so convoluted...maybe postponed for some side-girl or random content...but still...please enlighten me because i'm genuinely curious at this point ^^
