I think you cant count RPGs, Games like WoW would win this. The only true Game that really gived me a lot of SP was Alundra. If i think about, I even needed more than this 50 hours what the back of the box said.

World of Warcraft has no clear objective, he is talking about a main quest/campaign that is 100+ hours long.

Probaly not, if it's the main quest. If it's oblivion, then yes, but I like shorter single player campaigns, that I can go back and replay.

Yea but WoW is an MMO, the TC is implying a game that has a main quest that takes over a 100 hours to complete.

Typing /played on my Rogue brings up some truly frightening statistics. Nearly 85 cumulative days played, meaning I've played 24 hours times 85 total on that character. No other game has sucked my soul like WoW, but in a good way!

way to long for non mp game. I'd rather they break it up into 2 or 3 smaller chunks. And this is probably what developers would do to maximize profits and shorten development time of the game.

[QUOTE="Skittles_McGee"][QUOTE="kolkov01"] you don't need new technologies for that . In fact games this gen have been getting shorter, not longerYandere

No they haven't. Games "back in the day" were far shorter than games of today.

Only action games, RPGs were longer/just as long as they are today.



oblivion is about 70 or so hours if you do everything. morrowind is 200+.

As long as it was a good hundred hours.

I have no problem playing a game that has an insane amount of things to do. I played Disgaea 2 and 3 pretty religiously, right up until there was pretty much nothing left to do.

ITT: We boast about our game's "length.

Anyways I have played 100+ hrs games so yeah. The concern here would be the quality of the game and what it would have to do in order to keep itself fresh to me for such a long time.

Every game is repetitive. :? siLVURcross

Some more than others.

If the game is good yes but it will probably be an RPG as I can't imagine playing an FPS for 100 hours lol.

Yes, assuming the game as a whole is good. I've spent 100+ hours on a game before, but across multiple saves (Oblivion, Fallout 3, Empire Total War and Call of Duty 4 come to mind :P.)

I'd buy it but I might not finish it. I have doubts that a video game company can create something where the main quest is engaging for 100 hours.

Am I going to be having fun for 100+ hours? My real reason to play is fun, if its 100h+ in which like 80 hours of it is monotomous, boring, garbage and I'm not having fun then no. Since I doubt any video game can feel fresh for 100+ hours I'm skeptical. If its enjoyable however then why not?

Yup and I already have, P3FES, that game is insane when it comes to content and the best thing is that I only paid $20 for it :D.Everything else just feels and is overpriced compared to that, unless ofcourse it's a Battlefield game:P.

I already did the elder scrolls morrowind.The first time through figuring every thing out and exploring the crap out the game world,I'm sure I came close to if not over that.If you count the replay's I clocked in way more than that with that game.

farcry 2 and mercenaries 2 are both well over 200 if you do everything fun in the game, not just the main story. otherwise they maybe 50 each. (mercs would be shorter if you knew what the hell you were supposed to do, ie a second playthrough. i mean the suckiest sidemission unlocks half the map and isn't a sidemission at all...)

I've never played any gamethat was that long. I prefer shorter RPGs. I'm a guy who is very picky about games; so it would depend on a few other factors as well.

No thats not what i ment lol I ment a game that is 100 hours long. Not a 10 hour game that is 100 hours long. I mean a 100 hour game that is 100 hours long. Literally no matter how fast you go the minimum for the Main quest nothing but the main quest no side quests. Just going as fast as you can and you will hit a 100 hour minimum.

I usally get bored way before I even hit 30 hours into a game. So no I normaly would not buy a 100+ hour game, except for Demon's Souls. I have about 130 hours into it and I'm just now starting to get bored with it.

Really? I beat it in two days.

Your PSN ID says otherwise. You beat your first boss on November 13th (and who knows how long you played before that). You didn't beat it until the 19th. Furthermore, I'm doubtful you did that without reading guides online. You can beat Morrowind in about 6 minutes if you know exactly what you're doing too...doesn't make it a short game.

100+ long minus the sidequests etc would be a complete drag.

falldogout

It might be but if the story is interesting and it has great twists and turns. Now add in CRUCIAL choices and you got yourself replay value.

A 100 hour long story with twists? It would be the most repetative and dragged out thing ever. I dont care if choices are involved and worked nicely, that would be one dragged out game. It is much different then having a game with a main story, side quests, exploration, and multiple play throughs.

100 hours is over doing it. Something I would like to see is a heavy action oriented game(not nessecarily RPG elements) as long a 50 hours of main story in a more linear fashion. God ofWar 3 I wish was that long. Or Bioshock 2. Both previous games were 20-25 hours long so that would've been lovely.
