"I am limited by the technology of my time."
We'd love to create more art and less purely dialogue-based content, but the current structure became a compromise between the artist's and the writer's working speed. Most likely, closer to release, we'll revisit the structure once more, cutting out pointless running around, but our artist unfortunately only has two hands, cloning isn't available to mere mortals yet, and we don't want to use AI.
So yes, "one can only hope that your character gets updated." But at least we've already established the overall structure, mapped out all character development, and are gradually moving toward the finale of our first development experience.
