High quality visual novels takes time to release.

Nobody who likes visual novels expects fast releases. What's much harder to make peace though is when a game you love announces a sequel—and then years upon years pass, with no updates at all.

This video is about those games.

These are visual novels that are either indefinitely delayed, silently cancelled, in development-hell for so long the fanbase is clearly coping, or exists in limbo where they're technically not cancelled but also clearly not coming out anytime soon.

Hi, my name is August, and depressingly, I'm going to talk about Visual Novels That Will Probably to Definitely Never Come Out.
