RDR2 comes to mind, "just have faith, just one more job arthur". Fuck that and the stupid epilogue where you have to milk cows and shit. Man, that was infuriating.
I agree, but not completely. On P3 and P4, as soon you somehow maxed out the social links or have progressed a lot, the games were a bit repetitive and the day/normal time became a bit boring.Persona games - I mean I love them and they are great but do they really need to be 100 hours long ? Cutting them down to 60-70 wouldn't hurt.
I'm playing through Assassin's Creed Valhalla at the moment and dear God how long the story is.
Just playing through the main quests and not doing much else there are 16 territories of the UK all which need to be won over. Each territory has it's own quest line (with horrible writing I must say) which takes 2-3 hours each.
I'm about 30 hours and eight territories in and I honestly think I'm done with the game. It's repetitive, the story is trash and it's dragging out far too much for it's own good, there's no reward to continuing with the game, everything good about the game has worn off.
I was quite excited when Ubisoft said you could play through the story of Valhalla without doing much of the side content (something which was nowhere near possibly in Origins and Odyssey) but in return the main story seems to be full of side content that's never ending. Huge shame what the series has become in my eyes.
Anyway, what other games have suffered being far too long?
I just finished this game a few days ago. It was part of Gamepass EA. This game was padded beyond belief. The last 5 or 6 hours I kept muttering at my screen for the game to just END already.
I don't know if I would go as far as to call it Trash but it did have some serious flawed design choices. I still want to see a 3rd game assuming Asylum is still being worked on.
RE4 imo had the perfect length. Takes around 15 hours the first time and then around 10-12 when you know you're way around. Also it has high replayability.For me, I think the sweet spot is 6-8 hours. Anything more than that and I lose interest. Miles Morales was the perfect length I would say.
I don't remember that at all. Gotta replay I guess.This game was padded beyond belief. The last 5 or 6 hours I kept muttering at my screen for the game to just END already.
I found a lot of joy in the RE3 remake this year. My first playthrough was about 10 hours or so, but then the incentives for multiple playthroughs were very enticing, so I played it through another 7-8 times clocking about 50 hours total in the game. Love that approach, but I think it takes a lot of careful planning and thought to make that click. And it seems it didn't really click for everyone given the lackluster reviews.All of em these days. I miss games that were meant to be replayed rather than just eternally played.
Also, Bioshock 1
I've never minded a games length. I like getting my money's worth.
Alien Isolation
FF7 Remake
Also, the prologue as a mandatory doesn't work
