I'd argue it's not entirely irrelavant if Monty's vision is as half-baked as M&K's writing presently is. Bad "visions" are just as important as how they're executed, ad from the looks of things, those visions as presented were either only thought out halfway, or solely there because iehter Miles, Kerry or Monty thought it was a good fit at the time.

The real issue is that RWBY has no endgame. Whatever Ideas or "vision" I have heard talked about, I never hear anything about how this all ends. Which is a major red flag because that just means a show is forced to meander until it is violently/awkwardly/quickly forced to end.

Look at Breaking Bad (hardly a fair comparison I know). Vince and friends played things by the seat of there pants on more than one occasion, but always knew the endgame and therefore how to fit these changes in order to still realize that vision.

Whenever something unexpected happens that forces Crwby to change, they have no fucking idea what to do because no one really knows how this is supposed to end. At best these changes are awkward and unsettling, at worst they break the show at its most fundamental levels.

And that's part of the reason I've called Monty and crew's "Vision" half-baked. They seem to have little or no idea how they're going to end it or even when they intend to. I have no idea if there was an ending originally planned while Monty was still alive or not, but the fact they clearly don't know what they're doing gets me to think that it may have never been in the cards, or changed constantly to the point where it's become an "We'll end it when we end it" type scenario.

Goddamn.

This is even worse than that RWBY Critic Guy's hot take on RWBY being better than Final Fantasy and Persona combined...I laugh so hard at this post because RWBY can barely even scratch the surface of basic bitch Shonen like Fairy Tail or Black Clover, but for that matter even the shitty Harem genre is better.

As for the point about LGBT characters, Anime / Manga still has them beat out to such a hilarious degree;We've already mentioned Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune in this very thread, but you got stuff like Yuri on Ice! (Which had the two male leads getting engaged near the end) or Revolutionary Girl Utena with a character who is flat out in love with her female classmate.

The idea that RWBY is better because it has two pseudo-Lesbians, a troon, a non-binary bitch, and a formerly gay pilot is laughable when one looks up how many Anime / Manga have more LGBT characters going back further before Monty made this series.

RWBY has nothing, it used to have great fighting scenes but now it has not a damn thing.

Which is why the only people who still watch are the ones who only care about which teenage girl ends up going lesbian futa for the other one. AND ALLAH FORBID THE WRITERS PICK THE WRONG ONE OR ITS TWITTER JIHAD TIME!
 
To be fair, it depends. RWBY at it's absolute worst is in my opinion still better than Sword Arts Online or all the haremshit and pedobait series. If RWBY was an anime, I'd consider it to be lower mediocre.

I think ultimately, RWBY is, barring the outliers of Volumes 1 and 5, a solid 6/10 series that occasionally reaches the lofty heights of being a 7.

The problem is that everyone involved on the fan and haters side seems to think it's an 8 or a 2.

I would say your scoring system is bit on the high side. I consider anything over a 5/10 to be above average, so that's probably just me. Rwby is around a 3-4, definitely below average but not near unwatchable drek like the Batwomen TV show or something like that. Its just boring for the most part, which is sad because it did start at a 5/10 with a lot of potential despite the glaring flaws.
