Tales of the Shire Delayed

A xeet from Tales of the Shire announces a delay to this The Lord of the Rings game, saying it will now arrive in 2025 (thanks VG247). With the length of the book trilogy apparently close to a half-million words (fixed: not half-billion, apologies) and the extended movies boasting a combined run time of over 11 hours, this fantasy tale has always taken its sweet time, so this tracks. Here's the explanation:
All of us here at Wētā Workshop are excited to have you join us in the Shire, a corner of J.R.R. Tolkien's world. When a new Hobbit steps into Bywater for the very first time, we want that moment to be everything you're hoping for.

To ensure deliver that vision Tales of the Shire will now be launching early 2025. Thank you for your patience and continued support. Be sure to tune in to our A Hobbit Day Showcase on September 22nd to learn more about Tales of the Shire and our new release date.

So if one strips away the Tolkien license, what is the actual selling point of this game? (or is that it?). Remove the Middle-Earth setting and it just looks like another clone of My Time At Portia or Palia.
