>pppreorder??
>you cant do it that! NEVER. EVER. PREORDER.

>>717480773 (OP)
This must be exclusively zoomer faggots.

All the Golden Age NES-PS2 (non-RPG) games were like 4-12 hours your first playthrough and like 1-6 hours on replay when you knew what you were doing. The perfect length for comfy replays.

Zoomers now though just want mindless bloat and filler for MUH KAHNTENT!!!

Who are these people because mafia 1 & 2 could also get beaten around that time. The only one that was longer was Mafia 3 at 25 hours and everyone agrees that was tedious and padded to hell.

>>717480997

those games also had high replay value due to their arcadey nature, it was unrelenting gameplay and challenge from start to finish

if i had to guess this new mafia game is some anemic story driven slop with 3 mintues of gameplay between 15 minute cutscenes

ypepo be used to being small

>>717480909
This post exudes such manly badass energy that I will preorder the Digital Deluxe edition on Epic Game Store!

>>717481420
Now that I don't agree with it. Pre order *digital*? They gonna run out lol? How can you sell it when your done?

>>717480773 (OP)
At least 90 hours are missing m8.

You don't replay games unless you're an autistic retard.

Why do you talk like a girl?

>>717480997
Games would also come out every year or two. Not seven years

>>717480773 (OP)
10 hours is fine for a $10 game.

>>717480773 (OP)

Not being interested in something is boycotting now?

>Denuvo
not interested

>>717481795
This is the real boycott
Fuck denuvo

The people who are going to watch the Let's Plays they mean, lmao.

>>717480773 (OP)
wait until they find out it’s not free roam outside of missions

>50 dollar game
>10 hours

Bethesda killed video games by bloating their shit with muh radiant quest and "1000000 hours of gameplay!!!" bloatslop. Fuck them, fuck Todd, I hope every single person working in there dies slowly and painfully.

>>717480773 (OP)
10 hours is fine if there's replay value. but is there? seems like a Cinematic TM game.

>>717484056
by todays standards that's cheap though
a "normal" game is around 80 dollaroos now, thanks nintendo

>>717480773 (OP)
No one is boycotting the game.
This is just journalists making shit up

>>717480773 (OP)
>boycott
It's called "not buying your shit product". There's no coordinated and deliberate effort to not buy your moviegame, it's simply an uninterested customer. Kill all journalists.

This obsessions with $ per hour of gameplay has been a disaster for the industry. That's how you end with bloated tedious games like the Silent Hill 2 remake

>>717480773 (OP)
No wonder it's only $50

>>717480773 (OP)
we solved this issue with tacked on multiplayer modes before but now every multiplayer mode has to be a microtransaction live service fest

10 hours alone is not bad in and by itself yet, but is it replayable? Because 10 hours WITHOUT replayability is an absolute scummy scam.

>>717480997
>1980s games made by some bored dude in his office have the same level of expectations from 500 million dollar global projects with hundreds if not thousands of people involved

Terminally online faggots need to create a controversy out of anything, their lives have no meaning if they're not bitching about something.

>>717480997
/thread
10 hours is completely fine as long as the game is replayable.
I'd take that any day over another bloated mess of a game that has 30+ hours of meaningless busy work. Very few games actually manage to deliver a decent experience past the 20 hour mark.

>>717480997
Those weren't narrative-based, story-heavy games. They were games such as Mega Man, which had incredible replayability due to the nature of their combat, environments, and movement, with huge room for mastery gains with each successive play through. Not a lot of people are going to pay $50 for a 10-hour narrative-based game, in this economy. You can get as mad as you want about it. The publisher knows this, which is why the review embargo is still up.

Me
I hurt myself today

>>717480773 (OP)
This is a good thing. I played Stellar Blade and that game was way, way too long and at least 70% of the playtime was padded with dogshit pointless fetch quests and scavenger hunts.

>>717480773 (OP)
Good. Games should be between 10-20 hours and I'm tired of pretending otherwise

I have 140+ hours in Monster Hunter World+Iceborne and I'm still not technically done with it and getting to the post game content is kinda awful, but for some people, I imagine it's not enough.

>>717487702
Megaman is 90 minutes long, tops.
2d games outside of rpgs where 2 hours max if you mastered them.
An average gen 6 game was 4 to 8 hours. 15 for rpg like games like fable.

There's this nostalgia shit where people claim games were much longer then they were. Games didnt have many dopamine tuned systems compared to today, so you just stopped game sessions because they got kind of boring. And that was a good thing

>>717480773 (OP)
The problem is that it's a generic cover shooter with "stealth" and batman vision

>>717480773 (OP)
I was boycotting it because I heard it aas capped at 30fps, I'll probably buy it if that ends up not being true though

>>717480773 (OP)
I've never heard of this game

>>717485921
i don't get how it ever became a thing. what matters is if the game is good

>>717487702
Bioshock is under 10 hours
MGS is under 10 hours
Prince of Persia is under 10 hours
Portal is under 10 hours
Half-Life is under 10 hours
Max Payne is under 10 hours
Metro is under 10 hours
Silent Hill is under 10 hours
Resident Evil is under 10 hours
Sly Cooper is under 10 hours
Halo is under 10 hours
Classic Zelda is under 10 hours
Ico/SotC are under 10 hours
FEAR is under 10 hours
Metroid Prime is under 10 hours
DMC is under 10 hours
Batman Arkham is under 10 hours
classic God of War is under 10 hours
Dead Space is under 10 hours
Castlevania is under 10 hours

Seriously what the fuck are you even saying here? Outside of RPGs and open world games, anything much over 10 hours is the rare exception, rather than the norm. Only recently with open world slop and GaaS do gamers demand padding garbage in their games.

It's a large reason why many modern game games are trash, you have 10 hours of quality content except with 10-40+ hours of filler junk stuffed in.

>>717490402
Almost none of the games you listed are under 10 hours, is this some sort of elaborate retardation troll I am not informed about or what the fuck is going on in this thread?

>>717480773 (OP)
>WAAAH I NEED OPEN WORLD SLOPPA! WHERE'S THE WHOLESOME FETCH QUEST TO COLLECT 548 FUNKO POPS???
Redditfags grow more insufferable by the week

>>717490402
damn unc I get those games free from vimm's lair I ain't spending $50 for 10 hours of gameplay

I can't even tell if this thread is ironic or not.

>>717490645
Zoom zoom. Go play fortnite retarded faggot.

Most of those games can be beat in a few hours. Most are challenging and will have you replaying sections but they are the farthest thing from the padded 30+ hour adventure games we have now

>>717490730
Okay so you are just trolling, thank god. I thought this place had an even deeper form of aneurysm.

>>717490645
Are you pretending to be retarded or have you just not played any of those games?

>>717490775
I have, and unless you are absolutely speedrunning and basically doing nothing to actually play the game or following a strict re-run guide, you would by no means finish the majority of those games in less than 15 hours.

>>717490774
Shitstain, what fucking game there is over 10 hours? Even first playthrough blind, most are under 10 hours, or very close to it if they're not. On replay, they are more like 2-6 hours

>>717490919
Just stop the larp, this is embarrassing.

>>717480773 (OP)
>boycott
you mean people don't want to pay$80 for a 10 hour game? that's not a boycott. that's people making wise financial decisions.

>>717491137
It's $50 chud

>>717491165
same thing get fucked

>>717490402
Unless by “classic zelda” you mean “the first game with a guide” none of them are 10 hours of a first playthrough, especially for the target audience of 8-12 year olds

>>717491520
>dude all those games are over 10 hours hurr durr
>and by all of them I mean just 3D Zelda games even though you specifically stated classic Zelda

>just saw a blast haver get a physical copy early for PS5
>he finished the story mode in 3 and a half hours
um

>>717486932
If anything, by today's standards of quality the latter has less expectations behind it and they still can't meet them

>>717491802
Are you daft? I never said 3D at all, im thinking about like, a Link to the Past

>>717489916
Late PS2 era there was a backlash against "weekend rentals" and "linear games" and that combined with other gamertm takes like "dollars per hour" and "paid cosmetics are fine because it doesn't effect *gAmEpLaY*" created today's market.

>>717480773 (OP)
when i tell you open world ruins games none believes me

Recall people getting pissy over 6 hour and less games all the fucking time during the last decade. Guessing the prominence of open world shit and other odd 'forever games' while military-flavored FPS waned raised the bar?

>>717480773 (OP)
Sorry, but my current standards for game length/price are set by Factorio.

>>717480773 (OP)
At least I could hold a shit in for ten hours
