Non invisible characters need to be modeled. By making those invisible you save yourself a lot of time...Or...having the power to be invisible will be a factor in the battle eventually, so it needed to be part of the story all along (Chekhov's Gun). It would just be bad writing if a completely new power becomes miraculously available to the MC during the climax.
I think you're confusing live action stories - where availability (or lack thereof) of actors has always resulted in storyline tweaks on the fly - with AVN's, where the characters can be rendered at will and there are no contract disputes, pregnancies, etc. to necessitate making a character invisible arbitrarily.
Does HT get scenes with an invisible character rendered a little faster and appreciate that? I'm sure. But the writing so far has given no cause to imply her invisibility is a result of laziness on the part of the dev, so I completely trust that her invisibility is 100% intentionally about character development and story. Even if it plays no part in the final confrontation, it will be a pretty significant and emotional moment when someone who has a long history of trauma and is too afraid to show themselves finally becomes comfortable enough to allow herself to be regularly seen by the MC.
I like it in the story. I just wonder that a bit of make up wonders to her face...
