Well, yes. It depends on the game of course, but I think there is a general trend towards making games longer and putting more "fluff" into them, which doesn't improve the experience. Resident Evil 4 Remake for example is longer than the original, but that doesn't make it better. The new set pieces often felt like padding, so why put them in there? Just so you can claim the game is "20 hours long"?
It often feels like buying a game is this huge commitment where you have to put hundreds of hours into it in order to have the most fun, especially with AAA titles. It's like you have to adjust your life to accommodate for some titles, and I don't have the time for that these days. I don't want to propose or enter a longterm relationship. I just want to have some fun.
