I cannot believe my eyes in this thread. "Its okay that its so short, its mainly about the MP like CoD"

As a card carrying Call of Duty fan, who has had to defend people calling CoD a shit game because of how short its campaign is, this 180 is astounding.

EDIT: Also, to everyone saying 'thats still longer than CoD', according to http://howlongtobeat.com/ if you search for each game they average about 6 -8 hours, so no, its not longer than CoD.

And how do you know is the same people? hum?

Is around the lenght of any online shooter this days, is in fact longer than some CoDs like Ghost and... Modern warfare 2 :S

exactly what i was thinking!

Also COD is a slightly different case, in that it has a legacy of good single player campaigns. COD 4 MW in particular had a generation defining SP campaign imo. So for that particular franchise to start focusing less on SP, will obviously cause some kind of outcry. Personally I was a big fan of the COD SP, so I was pretty dissapointed when they started focusing less on it.

Splatoon/Titanfall/Destiny are all new IP's, theres no precedent there for a good SP campaign. They are also pretty open about the fact that the game is primarily a MP game. With splatoon i wasnt really even expecting a SP at all, given the marketing they've done for the game so far. So id say its fair that they dont have some crazy long SP. Also even though its short it might be a really good SP.
