Oh 100%. He's not lazy - he's got the opposite (and potentially worse) problem of being way too overambitious and overconfident in the timescale it will take to actually deliver what he wants....but in this situation I don't think HandlessGhoul is being lazy - I think he's actually stretching himself way too thin.
I lurk in the discord all the time and he's constantly in the trenches talking about all the cool shit he wants to add and updates on how he's doing it whilst simultaneously not thinking about the technical overhead it will add. And because the team is so small very few of these ideas actually crystalise and just push the updates back further and further.
This isnt even a new problem - the old github repos from like 4 years ago had remnants of a lockpicking minigame and dogmeat which he had started making, then scrapped.
Full disclosure - I love this game, I think what has been delivered so far is of way higher quality than you usually see in adult games (particularly from small teams) and I even supported it on Patreon for longer than I probably should have - but it has some serious development issues that might never be fixed.
