Some times I like games that's just 10 hours long, and some times I wanna immerse myself in a world and play in it for 100's of hours.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

I like both of them, because I am a superior being.

My sweet spot is 12-20 hours. Shorter than that I feel I got ripped, but I also get bored with games that goes on too long. There are too many good games to be spending all your time on a single one.

I like games with an immersive story. Mass Effect, Alan Wake and Deus Ex are some of my all-time favourites. Open world games sometimes feel too unfocussed, but Fallout managed to be both open world and focussed, so its not a hard rule.



It just depends on my mood. If I'm playing an RPG it's because I expect to sink anywhere from 50 to 100 hours into the game with a long, drawn out story but I understand the mechanics are typically more simplistic. At that point I'm not looking for the next great action title. If I'm playing an FPS it's because I just want to blow things up. I don't want a campaign any longer than about 25 hours because shooters tend to get very repetitive in single player without anything truly dynamic happening. Regardless, all games must be fun in their own way.

I like both if done properly. I enjoy Final Fantasy, but I also enjoy Minecraft which has pretty much no plot.


Exactly, I love Minecraft too, because it's fun. That's why we're playing games in the first place yeah?



Yep.
