So choice is;
• Quick/cheap fix - dot & dab 12.5mm square edge MR board, tape joins, prime untilled area & finish skim, tile straight onto the board for the rest.
• Proper way but extended waiting/drying time before tiling can start & rendering more expensive - complete re-render of base, finish skim untilled areas & tile the rest.
If what’s left is firmly attached, you can render & patch repair the rest of the wall up to/around it & then tile or skim over but stripping it all back will make life a lot easier if it’s patchy or there not much left; removal may be better in areas that are to be finished skimmed.for Option 2. - Complete removal of existing render required?
Main reason for my recommending render over Gypsum is so he can tile straight onto it & (without knowing OP's tile preference) maintain maximum tile weight; plaster will knock you back 30%. With a stripped wall in a conventionally decorated wall, I would go with Multi over a suitable Gypsum base plasterRemember though - render is awfully cold.
