Saying that the plot wouldn't have changed had Monty lived is flat-out ignorant and a disgrace to Monty's memory. The fact that Monty wasn't a writer doesn't mean he wasn't heavily involved in the creative process of bringing this story to life. Creating a narrative in your mind is different than translating it to a script. That's why Miles and Kerry were brought on board: to translate Monty's creative genius into a screenplay.

The truth is, RWBY would be astronomically different had Monty survived. And though we'll never know for sure, I would bet my fucking kidneys that it would have been significantly better.
