It's predictable in the sense that Subaru is gonna die and Rem's disappearance and Emilia's death are gonna get reset. We can even bet on it.

I'm not saying the entire story is predictable. I'm saying that a looping story is predictable by nature. It's not really dissing this show in particular, nor am I saying the specific events are cliche. It's mainly a response to Krayz saying that we (and Subaru) can't know if his save point is suddenly gonna change for no reason whatsoever. I'm saying we can, based on the pattern so far and the usual development of time looping stories.

You guys need to calm down. My replies have been really congenial despite how tempting it is to not be, so I'd appreciate it if you lay off the attitude. Calling my logic stupid or challenging me to precognition contests aren't exactly what I would call playing nice.

EDIT:
What would be completely unpredictable is if Subaru really did load a new save point. That'll be an awesome surprise, and I'll give props to the author if he can salvage a story without Emilia and Rem. But we all know that's not gonna happen.

BTW, since you're asking for a prediction, I'll go ahead and throw one out there.

I think Subaru will eventually get over his psycho phase and start working to get help to save Emilia. My bet is that he'll use the info he gets from the cycles to manipulate the queen candidates and get their assistance to save Emilia. The loop where he got shamed by those princess bitches suggests as much. He needs to at least get back at them somehow for the story to have a satisfying end.

Being the hero, Subaru will win back everyone's trust and be all cool in the end. I really don't see him becoming a powerful knight or wizard. That would deviate from the theme of the story so far.

I think he'll get help from the knight dude who beat the shit out of him. That's just how anime stories work. The hero always makes up with the secretly kind bully and gets him as an ally.

I'm pretty sure this will end with the entire cast alive and well. But who knows.

That's my 2 cents.

EDIT2:

As I was writing that prediction, I thought it sounded familiar. Then I remembered I made a similar guess a few days ago.

But I'm sure the anime will take the more roundabout way of him getting help from the other nobles through negotiation, get some real power for himself, and pawn crazy clown guy in the last episode.
