“I still don’t know what the hell Dreams is”
You will, Scott. You will.

2020 here, Dreams for PS4 got released

I accidentally clicked off from this video. When I came back, I saw an ad for the final fantasy VII remake followed by Scott saying that it hasn't been released yet.

I did a video on Dev Hell games last year, longest game I could find was one in development for over 24 years!!!

[IAmChrisAMA]

He didn't start with "Hey all, Scott here."

He started with "ah."

*UNSUBBED.*

Scott: final fantasy 7 remake, and dreams will basically never happen.
Me: laughs in 2020

I know it's been said a thousand times before but really, Duke Nukem Forever, being in development hell is the sort of beautiful irony that you feel could be attributed by some self-aware cosmic force, obviously the 'Forever' part but then you get the initials, DNF, which in racing means, Did Not Finish. It's just so beautiful.
I feel like we should all act as though it never was released. Like how the Visual Novel/Anime Community pretend that Tsukihime was never an anime.

Miyamoto once said, "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." I think these developers really took it to heart.

Scott is one of the only YouTubers where his videos aging poorly is a good thing.

“This game will never come out.”
*comes out the next year*

[godaininja]

It’d be so funny if they just released Agent on the PS3 now...

[JudgementKazuhiraPrime]

This makes me appreciate Nintendo's transparency about Metroid Prime 4's redevelopment earlier this year

[legomann]

If there’s ever another duke nukem game it should be called “duke nukem forever and ever” it may not actually be all that funny but it makes me laugh at least.

[OtterStar]

Fun but not so fun fact: All publicly shown gameplay for the Final Fantasy 7 remake was scrapped, so back to development hell it goes!

“Once a game is announced, you should expect to wait 1 or 2 years to play it, 3 years max”

*laughs in elder scrolls 6*

Kirby Return to Dreamland, started in GameCube in 2005 all the way to 2011 on the Wii. Worth it in my opinion.

[nosubsnovids]

its called duke nukem forever because it took forever

[gavinthecrafter]

Imagine in 2025 they just release Agent out of nowhere and it ends up being the best game ever

[jackawaka]

I'm glad half of these are actually being released now

[shayoko]

its even worse with indie projects. far too many people get into development without understanding what it takes to finish a project...

Let’s just acknowledge that Scott dropped a Mac Book in the shower for a 3 second joke. That’s some dedication and I love it
