Do you like short games; do we need more short games?
Would you rather play: Xenoblade 2 or The beginner's Guide?

more short games? nope.

Xenoblade 2 by far.

Im big on story/character developement, and that takes time.

Smaller shorter games feel empty to me, you could play them for the gameplay but it just feels wasted most of the time.

So yeah not enjoyable imo, and not really memorable either.

For every person like you, Im sure theres like 10 that think like I do.

I like long games too, but I often find games don't contain much story per hour played.

I spent ~30 hours in Nier: Automata, and I feel the whole story could've been effectively conveyed in 1 - 4 hours.
Nier: Automata didn't have fun combat or good movement to fill the empty space; I feel like I wasted so much time playing the whole thing.

If a game can justify its run-time, then I will harbor no ill will; I adore games that know when to shut up.
I value my time; make my investment worthwhile, and I will sing your praises.
