Help us develop V2, let us hear your thought (〃'▽'〃) #3 (Patreon)

The third question is,  
Do you think it is a good idea to have a combat system in a game like VIRTUES?

As you might have known from previous posts about Project V2, we are developing a combat system for the game and it is basically done. https://www.patreon.com/posts/journey-to-v2-at-55081393

However, after playing the alpha version of the game a few times, now I began to question myself whether we should implement this combat system in the game or not.

After all, people play adult games for their sexual content, not for their combat system. The heavier the weight of the combat system in the game, the grindier people would feel, so we have to make the combat system as unimportant as it can be.

We made the combat system totally unrelated to unlocking sexual content or new plots, we allowed people to skip the combats directly, we made characters move and attack automatically, blah blah blah... ...

And now we realize... ... if it is so unimportant, damn, why don't we just remove it from the game directly? It is not an RPG game, but a VIRTUES-like game anyway. It doesn't feel like a smart thing to do to spend multiple weeks developing an unimportant system during every update cycle.

What's your opinion?
