  • Creator Backlash:
    • In the video commemorating reaching 100,000 subscribers, Clement criticizes his old videos, calling the sound quality "terrible" and states that he has no idea why people ever watched those videos. He elaborates in his replay of The Legend of the Mystical Ninja, adding that the video quality was also not good, his commentary was weaker, and he hates how much he overused the "r-word".
    • His decision in February 2010 to LP every game in the Sonic the Hedgehog series is one that he regrets, with the description for the first playlist calling it "a terrible decision". He attributes this in the 10 Year Retrospective video to Arc Fatigue, since whereas most games in the Mega Man series could be beaten relatively quickly, the Sonic games tend to take longer (especially after the "Classic" era), and claims that LP'ing an entire series is not something he plans on doing ever again.
    • Clement severely regrets turning his Super Meat Boy playthrough into a Drinking Game where he had to take a shot of cherry whiskey each time he failed a level. He confesses to feeling uncomfortable any time he rewatches his behavior on those videos. He was able to meet the fans who liked them halfway by keeping them on his channel, albeit unlisted. He tagged the series with messages encouraging viewers to drink responsibly.
  • Dear Negative Reader: In his Sonic Genesis review, when some viewers had consistently commented on his previous non-Sonic videos and accused him of stalling said review, he had this to say:
    Clement: Now if you're one of those people who consistently commented on my non-Sonic videos and told me to stop stalling Sonic Genesis, I wasn't stalling Sonic Genesis! The slowdown on this game is so bad it took forever to get all the footage I needed for this video. Also, go fuck yourself! (He gives the middle finger to the camera)
    • Had to tell his audience off for being mean to the 2 friends he'd brought round to try the Team Rose tutorial level in Sonic Heroes
  • Development Hell: The final part of his Punch-Out!! (Wii) LP was eight months late, partly due to him wanting to do a sketch that he couldn't do.
    • He had planned to LP the Mega Man Legends series, but due to recording issues, he had to cancel them until he eventually managed to overcome these issues and LPed all three games.
    • He also announced he was doing Mega Man Powered Up and Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X for the PSP, but couldn't record them in color without the proper cable, and had to scrap both LPs until he obtained the required cables.
    • His last two videos for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game finally came out a mere five months after the previous part.
  • Missing Episode:
    • Clement's Vlog Reviews are no longer on his channel due to him losing interest in doing them in favor of doing Let's Plays.
    • The entirety of Wrestlegamia, due to WWE issuing a copyright claim.
    • His Castlevania: Symphony of the Night LP, which he refers to in his Super Castlevania IV LP, has been taken off of his channel, feeling he could do the game more justice. He later clarified during the latter LP that while he likes SotN, he vastly prefers the "Classicvania" games over the Metroidvanias.
    • While he was rearranging his Sonic and Mega Man LPs into large collective playlists to reduce clutter and ease navigation, he accidentally deleted Part 2 of the Knuckles playthrough of Sonic 3 & Knuckles. It was considered lost until it was discovered in one of Clement's old hard drives, and was reuploaded soon after the end of his Sonic the Hedgehog Retrospective.
  • Schedule Slip: Part 4 of his Tails Adventure LP was uploaded two months after part 3 due to his busy work schedule, personal life, his infamous Super Meat Boy Drinking Game, and going on vacation.
    • Mostly averted; as of Fall 2012, he updates at a constant rate (although he does take short breaks in between LPs, along with annual summer and Christmas breaks). An exception to this is his extra video for Mega Man ZX, which was released five to six months after the last video. He claims A Wizard Did It.
  • Screwed by the Lawyers: All of his Wrestlegamia videos were taken down due to a copyright claim by the WWE.
  • What Could Have Been:
    • The X-Files Game LP was going to be in 2009, and his original Quackshot LP from 2008 was scrapped until 2011.
    • The Team Dark story of Sonic Heroes was originally going to be a full playthrough due to popular demand, but he scrapped it because he felt there was nothing to say as they were little more than Team Sonic's levels with some harder obstacles and more enemies, and instead provided a video explaining these issues along with just their cutscenes.
    • In his Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity Extra 2 video, he mentioned that he would review Sonic in Super Smash Bros. Brawl for his next Sonic review. However with him getting a Nintendo 3DS and planning to LP the Sonic DS games, this was briefly put on hold before he finally did the review.
    • He had planned to do an LP of Castlevania 64, and got as far as recording gameplay footage for it before realizing that it wasn't as good or fun as he remembered, and subsequently lost interest, scrapping it and promising to LP a different game to make up for it.
