I like your idea, but if we play as Inoda, i mean in the POV of Inoda
4-Kun responded to you about that poll, but in general the changes that some people either like or dislike mainly came from polls that Fujino initiated.
The other poll was the one asking people about Kirito having sexual relations with other people, Hebishima getting kicked out, and if people preferred a more slower paced story. As we can see, it looks like all of those things ended up happening. However we don't know if this was due to the results of the poll. But since this was initiated by Fujino, it can be assumed that was in Fujino's head before others said anything.
In terms of things the fans have been demanding; from my perspective it's mainly just been "Stop with the filler and give us more Asuna content". This was more or less what I remember all the way back from the Part 1 days.
I also agree that I'm generally a fan of Fujino's content and don't really have any major complaints. My only real major complaint if any was Fujino writing up the secret council plotline. It's one of those things that kind of needed to be implied it existed like all the way back in Part 1, so it's very disorienting. However while this is my most major complaint, I also don't care too much about it in the grand scheme of things. I'm here to see the sex content Fujino is providing with Asuna, Suguha, and fortunately recently Sinon. While I didn't like the secret council plot line, it's at least made Sinon have hotter scenes and interactions lately, so I'm happy rofl.
Anyways regarding what you're saying is the problem for part 2, you could say you're right in that it is the problem. My opinion is that the problem is a combination of increasing the scope of the project, while also not realistically giving themselves time to implement all the extra variables in a way that other people can find enjoyable. I think in general people kind of like the side content, but generally hate how it eats into the main content which is about Asuna. So by further implementing them into the main story, it tends to make them eat up even more screentime away from people that are just here for Asuna.
So yeah; just bigger goals, but not able to realistically achieve it on a monthly basis.

I've never seen the poll, but was there a poll where they asked that all the girls end up at Inoda? I hope not
Thx for the replies and my bad then if it was all fujino's idea i was wrong... and i guess i hope that... he doesn't liste to himself ?
but seriously yeah i just hope that his next game is more like part 1 !I don't think there was a poll about Inoda ending up with more people. The only ones I remember were the ones I mentioned.
A lot of people back when the polls were happening were under the impression that Fujino was being influenced by the fans, so it's nothing to worry about. The hints back then that Fujino wasn't being influenced probably has more to do with how Fujino out of nowhere for Part 2 decided to add all kinds of other shit that probably cut into development time. The most noticeable things are the Prurience and Anxiety values, the addition of the Administrator, the recollection room popping up at night, being able to update Asuna's status, the Asuna CGs in the menu. There were also more maps, the introduction of using the phone more for text messaging, and changing the internet mechanic to seeing Inoda's blog. Oh and most glaringly, people didn't like the soft reset with Inoda and Asuna's relationship at the start of Part 2.Thx for the replies and my bad then if it was all fujino's idea i was wrong... and i guess i hope that... he doesn't liste to himself ?
The things I mentioned are things that most people probably weren't even asking Fujino to do to begin with, but Fujino went ahead and did all that.
Anyways, no worries! I wouldn't be surprised if Fujino was influenced by the fans, I'm just more inclined to believe like 90% of the stuff done was all their idea, and the polls at best were to just gauge what people might be interested in. They should really update bi-monthly though to better flesh out their ideas.

Tbh, some people who voted for Kirito to get some girls might have just done it as a joke or out of irony

Interestingly, there is an event in the game, Asuna and Inoda infiltrated the tavern using Inoda's skill, but apparently this is the "council" territory. There, Agil is the owner of the tavern, his subordinates call him "Black bear Andre". She says that she has a couple of questions, but he says in response that she should not be here. Then he calls her to talk in the pantry, she asks - "What do you want?", Inoda shouts - "Senpai!" After she finds out that the boss is Agil, she tells Inoda that everything is fine and he can leave and wait for her. And we move to the pantry and the event ends there for now.
By the way, I don't know why no one answered my last question, I just don't know if these perks haven't opened for me because of a bug or if they should still be unavailable for unlocking?
If you want to watch this event, use this save. It starts from the very beginning. Although there are a couple more dialogues in which the waitress offers Asuna to work in a bunny girl costume, but because of them the event does not advance further.

That was a interesting event. Really makes you reevaluate Agil's presence in Kirito's life. I think this was a mandatory event before you can enter the brothel. Can't remember.
There was another event if Asuna and Inoda enters the video store. That one has no story points but was a nice callback to Part 1. It is nice Fujino adds these small events for fans to find. But I get the feeling adding these events is causing so much bugs so Fujino had to streamline the game.

So it already happened? I completely forgot that this event happened... Do you remember what they talked about next?That was a interesting event. Really makes you reevaluate Agil's presence in Kirito's life. I think this was a mandatory event before you can enter the brothel. Can't remember.

No longer necessary, I found the continuation of this event. In the end, Asuna thought that Agil was covering for Kirito

Also interesting—seems like Agil either can't see Inoda even as a council member or just doesn't care about him being around. So, what did he talk about with Asuna? And did Inoda eavesdrop on the conversation?
Strange, I don't remember anyone talking about this event.

One of the future challenge maps, there is one event, but it consists of a cut scene where we go inside.

- You get the girl's POV at the start of Part 2.
- The story in Part 2 is quite different in many ways—it would be too complicated to explain everything, tbh. As for relationships, there’s basically a soft reset in her dynamic with the bull.

I also don’t remember this event at all, but judging by the context, Asuna and Inoda were looking for Kirito

Yeah, seems like it's part of the brothel arc, but I still wonder—since Inoda was invisible, was it a room in the brothel? He didn’t use his ability outside, if I remember correctly. Maybe I somehow triggered the Suguha scene before checking all the rooms, but I usually reload and double-check everything before proceeding with the main plot.
