I already paid for the game, no need to watch a wall of names I won't even remember in five minutes. Topic title - Results (2 votes) They're a good thing.

I beat the campaign earlier tonight (it was alright, middle of the pack among CoD campaigns. Great visuals though except for the film grain, which was annoying) and the credits rolled. As far as I could tell, there was no way to skip them. Even if there was, there's a trophy for watching them so you have to if you want platinum. Anyway, it felt like the longest credits I had ever watched. Felt like they lasted about twenty minutes and I was getting kind of annoyed by the end. I guess I'm more in the second camp from my poll. Credits are cool for those whose name is in them, but I'm not even going to remember one of these 1k+ names once it's over, aside from a voice actor I recognize. <cite>Itachi157 posted [p:959797917] in How do you...

Guerrilla Soldier 11/08/21 2:05:27 AM #5:	i think they earned the right. but, as it's a game and all about interactive experiences, i think they need to take the time and presentation into consideration as well. if they're long credits. don't make them unskippable. but if they're short, concise, then why not. if there's some minigame or something, why not. it really depends on the situation. --- Disclaimer: There's a good chance the above post could be sarcasm.

Rharyx211 11/08/21 2:06:32 AM #6:	They're alright as long as scenes or some such are playing alongside them. If it's just scrolling text for 20 minutes straight then it's a bit annoying. --- Watch "Final Fantasy XV Abridged" and "Kingdom Hearts Abridged" right here! https://www.youtube.com/user/mcknett3 <cite>Rharyx211 posted [p:959797995] in How do you...

tainted_emerald 11/08/21 2:35:54 AM #7:	Depends. If there's some story stuff bridging to an after credit ending during it, if it's playable in some way, or if the song is good enough (and the credits are kept short to fit it), the it can be okay. --- "Evil is what you make of it.

Wii_Shaker 11/08/21 6:48:51 AM #17:	I usually don't mind them. It's not often that I even beat games anymore. I kind of like how Left4Dead had it's credits but you could still message other players in the lobby. --- "He busted in, blessed be the Lord Who believe any mess they read up on a message board" -MF DOOM 1970-2020 (G.O.A.T.) <cite>Wii_Shaker posted [p:959800613] in How do you...
