I can't believe she literally wrote that she does the work of 6 people. I mean it's one thing to just say it off the cuff...but to write it out and send it to someone and think "this is good, this is what I want to convey".

So not counting variants, that's something like 11 play-ready ships and 26 or so ships that are still in production?

Have they ever stated how many ships they are planning on launching the game with at any point?

What is wave 5? Is that a bunch of new ships or them actually releasing planned ships?

Putting aside the Mathilda / Sandi thing for a second, because it's probably more fantasy than fact...

I don't assume Chris wastes his time reading detractor noise here or elsewhere--- but I am absolutely certain Sandi does. The circumstantial case for THAT is all over her "Reverse the Verse" appearances and her online interviews like "Ask Sandi". (Trust me, I've endured too many of them.)

She is paying pretty close attention to the anti-CIG narratives, and particularly to those involving her. Some of those counter narratives are unique to this forum (since they get down voted to invisibility on Reddit and thread locked on RSI). Sometimes Sandi's asides in interviews seem expressly aimed at rebutting (or provoking) detractors and their theories here. (And obviously, she's been responding to Derek Smart's bait before he caught media attention for his latest campaign).

I don't say that to suggest we are engaged in some consequential work here- because it's mostly just a LOLtrain ride through an especially epic disaster zone. But we appear to be dealing with a Grade A Narcissist here. Hypersensitivity to criticism (even of the most inconsequential kind) is par for the course.

Narcissistic personality disorder (NPD)

Symptoms of this disorder, as defined by the DSM-5, include:

A. Significant impairments in personality functioning manifested by:

1. Impairments in self functioning (a or b):
a. Identity: Excessive reference to others for self-definition and self-esteem regulation; exaggerated self-appraisal may be inflated or deflated, or vacillate between extremes; emotional regulation mirrors fluctuations in self-esteem.
b. Self-direction: Goal-setting is based on gaining approval from others; personal standards are unreasonably high in order to see oneself as exceptional, or too low based on a sense of entitlement; often unaware of own motivations.
AND
2. Impairments in interpersonal functioning (a or b):
a. Empathy: Impaired ability to recognize or identify with the feelings and needs of others; excessively attuned to reactions of others, but only if perceived as relevant to self; over- or underestimate of own effect on others.
b. Intimacy: Relationships largely superficial and exist to serve self-esteem regulation; mutuality constrained by little genuine interest in others' experiences and predominance of a need for personal gain

B. Pathological personality traits in the following domain:

Antagonism, characterized by:
a. Grandiosity: Feelings of entitlement, either overt or covert; self-centeredness; firmly holding to the belief that one is better than others; condescending toward others.
b. Attention seeking: Excessive attempts to attract and be the focus of the attention of others; admiration seeking.

C. The impairments in personality functioning and the individual's personality trait expression are relatively stable across time and consistent across situations.

D. The impairments in personality functioning and the individual's personality trait expression are not better understood as normative for the individual's developmental stage or socio-cultural environment.

E. The impairments in personality functioning and the individual's personality trait expression are not solely due to the direct physiological effects of a substance (e.g., a drug of abuse, medication) or a general medical condition (e.g., severe head trauma).

So 11 ships and the game has been in development since 2011. To out that into perspective Warthunder has been in development since 2009 and has over 500 playable aircraft with full atmospheric flight models and locational damage systems. Plus over 200 playable ground vehicles as well. Also Warthunder is free to play and the most expensive premium plane is like $20 or something.

I'm not sure if memory serve well but "high level officer goes rogue deep into enemy territory" was also the (sadly only partially resolved) B-plot of Freespace 2

My creative writing teacher in college used to say that if you can only describe your story by compairing it to other major works in the field you need to do more research and / or pour more work in your legend.
