Well over 100 posts in to this thread now.......... that alone shows that there clearly is an issue here with regards to the ps4's current line up of games.
With regards to indie games, in 90% of cases they are nothing more than 2-3 hour long and 1-2 day time fillers.
(that's always been my stance on these indie games, even when the 360 was swamped with them last gen, my old posts will back that statement up 100%)
Second son is getting platinumed left, right & centre at an alarmingly fast rate...... why? whether most on here who do favour sony would like to admit it or not, there clearly is a lack of appealing quality lenghty games on the ps4 right now. |
So many qualifiers! I can do it do: there is clearly a lack of appealing, cinematic, casual, open world, slower paced games on the X1 right now. See how easily I can discount a library by, instead of liking a game for what it is, adding a bunch of descriptors to negate the game?
And considering my 33+ hours in Warframe, for exampl, I wouldn't say that's a "2-3 hour long, 1-2 day time filler".
And ISS is getting platinumed left and right? Strange that a game that is averaging 20 hours to 100% is getting "platinumed left, right and centre at an alarmingly fast rate".
Man....a list merely pointing out which games are out right now and will be releasing soon really has struck a nerve with some people.....

Precisely............ only 20 hours to 100%. (ie 2-3 days like i said for those who put a good few nights work in on it)
Kinda shows that there is sod all else out there thats appealing to the sony crowd if they can rush through a game so quickly just to feed their starvation.
I'm not disputing that for a few out there games like Warframe and Resogun may get a bit more time put in to them than what i mentioned.
I wouldn't put that number at a high percentage though, far from it.

"Only"? You're standards are crazy high, then, if you're expecting a whole bunch more from a single player game. Uncharted 2 (from the same site) was 22.5 hours to 100% and I don't remember anyone saying it wasn't lengthy or was lacking quality. In fact, it was one of the best games from last gen. And nobody gets a new game and then plays it for 7-10 hours a day, in order to beat it 2-3 days. ISS being "platinumed left and right" and people rushing through it is a wholly a fabrication from you.
And I'll just leave you with a little Jim Sterling quote: indies are not system sellers, but they are system justifiers.

Second Son completion time...... http://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/infamous-second-son/229807-infamous-second-son-trophy-guide-roadmap.html
Uncharted 2 completion time.... http://www.playstationtrophies.org/forum/uncharted-2-among-thieves/26162-uncharted-2-among-thieves-trophy-guide-road-map-dlc.html
In some cases only 10 hours? for a platinum? christ, it's worse than i thought when it comes to length.
