Spoilers for the Shogun arc, obviously


It's not a coincidence that the Shogunworld copies Westworld, that's the point. The writers have hammered it in our faces that the company is all about the immortality stuff and that the park is a low priority. This is just another example of where the park cuts costs, by repeating many characters all over the place.
Specifically, the scene it recreates is from when Sizemore has to rush to change things because of Ford.

Not every host is malfunctioning. Some hosts have changed such as Maeve and Doloros, others are remembering their "other" lives, but the majority are going about their lives as if they were real (not all on their loops, depending on how often they reset). Shogunworld is not unique in that regard, it's just that everything started in Westworld so it has the worst effects.

The guests were killed by the hosts, we saw that as they were being walked into the town at the beginning. Remember, Shogunworld is considered to be the most hardcore park, so it's easy to believe the guests who were there failed to escape.

Maeve killing the people was a life and death situation every time. Until she learned to control it, it was always a reaction and not a controlled action. Easy to accept why it went the way they did.

I'll give you the ears thing though, that was wtf.
