The thing is Fujino reset the game, the first game was original more compact with a better plot development but in the end was just a rehearsal.yeah, this wasn't great. fujino sensei fell off after the first part
If you think about it the second game up to this point in the last update is 1 by 1 copy from the first one, the entire main plot Asuna's corruption was retold just with different scenes and the inclusion of bloated subplots for secondary characters.
Fujino did introduce some new things here and there but not enough to shake the players sensation of dejavu and made the experience repetitive.
That's why he include the council now, we got at the same stage as the first game ended with Asuna breaking, but now the damaged is done, with all this "retelling" for all this time, Fujino managed to make many fans disengage from the story and the main plot A less important and interesting then some B subplots.
And now when he need to make the main plot important again, he's having techinical issues with the RPGM engine which is making fans old and new bored and suspicious about his condition/ability to delivery the payoff for this game or even if he'll be able to do it.
