Everybody always says that. People who have been popular on Youtube for a year say nobody can get popular on Youtube anymore, nobody can make a game like that until somebody does it, etc. Yes, it's hard and the odds are against you but I bet a dollar somebody told him that it would be impossible to make his game before he started.
Also the OP didn't say he wanted the same level of success, he said he wanted a project like that. I'd love to work on a project like that, having fun building it out over time, even if it didn't make a gazillion dollars. There are different levels of success.
