That was till last gen. Gamers expect different things from games this gen. You rarely see those 5 to 15 hour games being success stories and most games have open world or multiplayer that can keep you playing for a long time. Sure some reviewers might praise it but the people would just look at its length and be like "nah, not $60 for this when I can buy Skyrim again on PS4 with another 50 hours of repetitive quests!" Yeah it sounds one note but that's what most gamers are like.

Naughty Dog are the exceptions to that rule but Santa Monica doesn't have the same reputation and God of War the same kind of appeal and no multiplayer even as an afterthought.

Nothing suggests that a typical God of War wouldn't have done the trick. Regardless of Naughty Dog, Skyrim, or what have you. But hey, feel free to believe otherwise. No one really knows.

This could go on but I'll shorten it yes it does. There's a reason EA was quoted saying linear single player games don't sell. With some exceptions they really don't. This is VGC, look it up yourself.
