Depends on the game. Straight to digital games can be done for me in just a few minutes. They have to catch my attention like Trine or Shovel Knight, or I will turn it off and never play again. Especially since these digital titles are usually so cheap. I know that these days many games are digital only, but I think you all know what I mean.

As for a traditional game you buy in the store, big 40 to 70 dollar title, I will put in about an hour or so, if I see some sort of light at the end of the tunnel maybe longer. Some games the training mode is annoyingly long, so again, it depends.

Yeah, I realise there is a spectrum here. I just put 4 or 5 hours into Lo Long Fallen Dynasty to see if it gets good, thinking I'd surely quit and the youtubers I listened to were wrong but alas, the game turned out to become really good. My OT is a flawed topic and the poll should allow for times well over 10 hours cause there are games and genres that take that long like MMO's. Ff14 could take a player dozen of hours to reach a point where they're having actual fun.
