Because hiring people means less money into his bank account and more work for him, since now he would have less of an excuse for why so little content and progress is being made and he would instead actually have to work on the game to keep up with coders.Please correct me if I'm wrong, but with that level of income/patronage, why doesn't he (temporarily) hire a couple more coders to pick up the pace and build a solid foundation?
I imagine he has some great ideas that he wants to draw and implement but he's been "stuck" for years.
By not hiring more people he is able to keep more money and keep expectations lower so people won’t get as upset about the luck of progress and content. And since he’ll be making less content and progress he can milk the game even longer to collect more patreon checks.
With the amount of money he’s been making for as long as he has, this game should have been completed years ago instead there’s even less content than we used to have due to him “reworking” the game to provide minimal improvements so so that he has an excuse to start the game over from the beginning to milk it even longer.
