It's actually not that hard to play 80+ hours game even if you're employed. I usually just play right after I get back home. I mean, it's not like I have urges to buy like more than 1 game per month anyways.

Ignore when people say that the title length is not important, that a title should just convey what the game is about. They're just jealous theirs isn't as long

I would like a game where the main story is over 1000 hours.

You literally come on here and say people deserve free money if they can't figure out how to get a job

I know this is bait, but like...

Maybe....

Just maybe...

We want the most out of our 60+ dollar game.

Not an underwhelming mess that you can trudge through in one sitting.

Maybe.

Didn't you just create a topic the other day praising open world mechanics, partly for this reason?

Right. And how much repetition, superfluous tedium and fetch quests are there in these 60+ hour games? The perfect thing for an unemployed person to kill time with, right?

Good for them. The difference is that I have a steady education, my family isn't poor, it's the 21 first century so there are laws limiting my ability to work regardless, and most importantly, I don't live in VE England, I live in New Jersey,

The only games that are 80+ and generally hold up are procedurally generated games. Some people can suck their life away with an 80+ hour RPG story, but that shit is draining and it's easy to drop the game and forget where the fuck you were at when you pick it up again.

I agree with 80+ hour games so long as they're games like Minecraft - potentially infinite, has countless grinding opportunities, has a survival and peaceful mode for two different types of players - or Diablo, which is based around loot acquisition, randomly generated dungeons and levelling. When people demand an 80 hour Deus Ex, or flavor-of-the-month AAA title, those 80 hours are going to be stretched out with a steadily curving skill tree that starts to become redundant or pointless after too long and all these "cool, open world!" trappings that try to supplement your playtime by getting you to goof off all the time. A good 80+ hour game is a game that remains fun for 80+ hours, not just a game that's designed to be completed in 80+ hours, and gives you the chance to continue playing for as long as you want as opposed to being confined to a strictly defined beginning and end - Minecraft has a final boss you don't need to ever find, and Diablo 3 has adventure mode.

Well maybe you should be thinking about the hardships of your ancestors and giving back to the community trough charity and volunteer work instead of braging about your white privilege
