Speak for yourself, I think if triple A games can offer 60 hour of content for 60 bucks thats a good deal. Its 1 hour of entertainment for 1 buck. Much better than Movie industry can offer for example.
Eh? You're pretty much agreeing with me but saying I shouldn't speak for you? 60 hours is a very long game, when did I say it wasn't? I'm not gonna come down like a ton of bricks on CDPR if the game lasts 60 hours. However, assuming I love the game and am enjoying playing it, why wouldn't I want it to last even longer?
If you think the ratio should be $1, one-hour, then you must be awfully disappointed in a fair few AAA games
Mind you, you also say 42 hours works so I'm not sure what you're actually getting at.
Personally, I don't think about the money/hours ratio, that's a bizarre way to quantify a games worth, imho. Games just don't work that way for me.
Anyway, you seem to have misunderstood the sentiment behind my comment. All I was saying is that this game is so highly anticipated, and comes from the devs of W3 that lasted up to 150 hours, that I'd imagine people are hoping this particular game will last an unusually long time. Assuming we're having a blast playing it, that is. Given the map should be a bustling city with many levels and interiors (that is the topic after all), I don't see why a possibly smaller 'footprint', compared to W3, would be a limiting factor to overall play-length. That's all I was trying to say.
Also,
you might have 'rushed' through RDR2 but what's that got to do with anything? In fact, I'm not sure why you think Rockstar thinks the same as you, hehe. They literally made a game that is slow paced and simulation like, one that lasts around 80 hours and can easily go over 100 if you're trying to complete every single little thing. I'm not sure in what sense they are on your wavelength?
I don't agree that CPDR should try to 'match' Rockstar; they have different gameplay priorities and identity.
Having said that, if you want to rush through the main campaign in 40ish hours like you did in RDR2, then I'd imagine you'll be able to do that. As big as W3 was, you could go through the main campaign in around 50 hours. I'm sure when CP2077 comes out, you'll be relieved to find that you can happily minimise the amount of time you spend playing the game you bought, if that's how you like things
It's all good.
