i don't think he's setting himself impossible deadlines. i think he sets himself realistic deadlines then chooses to not actually do any work, thus making what was previously a reasonable deadline impossible. the dude is just lazy, wants to keep collecting his free money and spend 18 hours a day watching/gambling on football.
In his year-end announcement, he set completely absurd goals for this year. A number of screens and renders per week, month, etc. Numbers that he wasn't capable of even in the past, when he had regular updates. Where do the problems pile up now? It doesn't even make sense.
No one asked for this (people ask for updates, since they're two years late). And yet, he simply decided, on his own, to promise these things.
We're already in the second month of 2025 (more than 40 days after that year-end announcement) and he still hasn't released the end of E13, even though he said E13 and E14 would be ready in 2023.
