But see, 99% of the people here are too gooner brained to actually even watch other media.

How do you feel about this polygamy thing in the game. I feel like developer is living in a country where it's legal. And the whole harem thing is very weird since females join it voluntarily without any reason. MC didn't get any heritage and has a doormat personality. Maybe in the future he will become someone but right now girls fighting over nothing.
Also girls dictate what is happening in the game, so MC take a role of well-bred pet dog that everybody want to play with, but has to "sit still" when others are talking. I could understand his behavior but it doesn't explain why everybody likes him.

The story is clearly inspired by one of the most popular vanilla harem AVNs, where established 'founding families' are the excuse for polygamy and the MC just happens to inherit the position of the patriarch of one. Copying this too closely would have been plagiarism, so 6Rairyu9 has gone a slightly more complicated, less cosy and more anime route.
Project S.P.E.S. takes place in a somewhat dystopian future with extreme social stratification ranging from first class citizens via second class citizens and indentured servants to actual slaves. (I guess the slavery part might be partially inspired by a very well known harem game that takes place in a hotel.) In any society that has such an extreme social stratification it is normal for gender roles to become very traditional and for men from the highest social stratum to have multiple female partners.
The situation in the US right now is actually not far off, except these changes to society are not official yet. Slavery and indentured servitude are technically illegal, but at-will employment and lack of proper social security, affordable healthcare and livable minimum wages have a similar effect. And if you look closely among the wealthiest people, you see that they are almost exclusively men, and typically have multiple mistresses. You may not see it, so I will name one example that is particularly instructive because it's a really nice, really rich, really old man: Warren Buffett. As far as we know it was 'only' two love interest in his case, but otherwise he seems to be living like the MC of a harem AVN. Warren Buffett married his wife Susan in 1952. She died in 2004 after 52 years of marriage. However, she moved out as early as 1977, when their three children were all adults but before the half-way point of their marriage, to pursue a singing career in another city. Even so, the couple still remained close. And Susan brought Warren together with her friend Astrid, who moved in with Warren and became his new life partner. Warren Buffett married Astrid in 2006, two years after Susan's death. (It appears that for some time he also had a platonic relationship with a third woman, a very much younger business genius who had approached him with an unsolicited letter.) I am sure if you look closely at the lives of the other members of the US oligarchy, you will find similar stories -- though probably not all so wholesome.
The difference in the society of this AVN is that these consequences of stratification have become officially recognized. I actually find that more surprising for slavery than for polygamy. Something like polygamy is natural and practically necessary when people in the lowest classes struggle to survive and having children makes it even harder. Rich and influential men are always attractive to a lot of women regardless of their other qualities (or absence thereof), and this becomes stronger the steeper the slope between the social classes.
While not technically a member of an oligarch family, the MC of Project S.P.E.S. is related to them by being treated by one of the richest and most influential men in the country almost as if he was his son, and like a prospective son-in-law. Add to this the fact that the MC clearly suffers from 'magic dick syndrome', possibly related to his magical sperm, and we can begin to guess why every attractive female wants to fuck him and will ultimately want to have his children. And it does look like he has a chance to be able to afford this.

So it's like a plot of typical hentai game? That is just sad.
I expected more from a story driven game.
