He didn't get many patreons,because there is only one PatreonL&P's hardware isn't the problem why these updates take so long. If he was really set back by obsolete components, he would've been able to replace them. He's making roughly between 45 and 50k a year after patreon's cut and income tax. That's more than enough money to do so, especially since this is his side gig. It takes so long because A) his creative process is slower than average; B) he doesn't have enough spare time to work on it or C) he doesn't care and is milking the shit out of this project.
Either way it appears to be working well for him for now. He's still gaining patreons, although at a very slow pace. If he doesn't change his work process, he'll be even slower in the future, as the game will become more complicated with all the different scenes variations he does, various branching paths, etc. If he goes to do his surgery in december, this pending update might get a release in january.
I doubt he will go to surgery before Christmas
