That's more than simplified. Doing what you explained would result in a game without images, without sounds, without choices, without custom UI or anything. A blank screen with white text. There's alot more to it than that. Renpy is simple compared to other engines sure, but there's a reason many of the best Renpy games have dedicated coders/programmers working alongside artists.Don't scare people for no reason.
Ren'py is the simplest language that I have ever seen. It's as easy as:
'Hagrid' "You are a virgin, Harry. You are born to be."
'Harry' "Aww..."
Then you learn a couple of keywords and you are ready to go. Built-in tutorial in the Ren'py engine will give you everything you need. It's 1 evening max.
Wasn't trying to scare him, just saying he has to dedicate free time learning more than image creation if he wants to make his own game (preferably one worth more than 1/5 stars
