Eight years, my god. I get exhausted and antsy just a few months into a project. I can’t imagine how difficult this must have been to develop, esp considering the slow and tedious work of all that stop-motion animation.

Oh man, I thought Telltale were bad about getting episodes out in a timely manner.

I hate waiting a week for the next episode of the Game of Thrones HBO show. Waiting 2-3 months between episodes of the Telltale game was excruciating until I forgot what happened in the last episode just in time for the next one to come out. I don’t know how fans can remain interested for a year between episodes!?

Well done to these guys for finishing their game though. The Dream Machine sounds interesting, I actually might check it out since there’s a complete experience available.
