You do realize how much time it even takes to write a novel? and then add that it needs to have art, revision coding (even if Ren'Py is quite simple) bughunt and more?
I agree, but majority of game was already finished 4 or 5 years ago. Instead of just working on next game like they told us they keep getting back and reworking things in circles. If they will continue doing that then they can work on ALREADY FINISHED game 2-5-10 years more. You think this is anything positive? Making game is hard, but they are far past that task for years.

The bottom line is that drawing new art on an already finished plot and code is much easier, faster and less energy-intensive. And you can talk about it as something very complex, long and energy-consuming. And, thus, to pull money from subscribers for an infinitely long time, constantly redrawing the same scenes. But to sit down to come up with a script, develop a plot, write code - you have to think, you have to work. And why work if you can not work, if subscribers will pay you anyway?
From what I've gathered it sounds like they want consistent art between this game and potentially sequel (Tropic Daze, which has been in limbo for years now). I don't mind an art update because:
