In the time leading up to a release of a project you have been waiting for, numerous challenges and changes in direction can go on behind the scenes that can cause major delays. This can eventually make it fall short of the expectations you’ve built up in your mind when actually getting to experience that project. Or, if too much time goes on with delays and lack of communication from the developer, it can cause some people to slowly turn bitter. That is what the topic of this video is; the bitterness that is formed while waiting (too long) for a game to come. This bitterness can also influence and affect how someone experiences that game.
