games are too short nowadays

[Omegajak]

im mainly talkin rpgs. modern consoles are so much more capable than snes and psx, the fuck do we have 15 hour rpgs for??

I think were in the process in the gaming era, where developers are trying to experiment and seeing what they can get away with. RPG's especially, JRPG's will always be but some titles sneak in with the RPG stamp and you think: "ZOMG new RPG 40+ hrs is a must!" Then you play Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of a New World, Tales of Symphonia on your first play through will give you 120+ hours because you WILL play through it more than twice after wards. Then you look at a solid game like The World Ends with You, you don't HAVE to do anything that special for doing something different in the game, and it's not like you'll be rewarded anything big if you do.

Though both solid titles what's worth the cash? What will you hold onto? What will give you that itch to play again? There's too many factors to try and define really what's going on since after all, everything these days about choice, and like a lot of people have said you get a lot more out of something if you know nothing about it at all.

Sorry, did I even make any sense? Felt like I tangented there...
