We'll see what we get soon enough.Zenic Reveriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16441583549326102945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4946916641850178817.post-4204320593700628632014-01-16T08:04:01.955-08:002014-01-16T08:04:01.955-08:00Thanks.

As you can see from the state of my post rate it's taken a hit this winter.Zenic Reveriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16441583549326102945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4946916641850178817.post-54448815270609743032014-01-16T08:02:19.329-08:002014-01-16T08:02:19.329-08:00When a game is this empty and long, it can feel li...When a game is this empty and long, it can feel like it's dragging on. I know by the time I get to Suikoden, Final Fantasy III, or Chrono Trigger, the hours will melt away, but for now I'm slogging my way through some rather unknown games. I have little hope of finding an exceeding great gem, but we'll get there. If a game is judged by how long it takes to beat, then expect a lot of filler.Zenic Reveriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16441583549326102945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4946916641850178817.post-46996437343917076312014-01-01T19:29:36.481-08:002014-01-01T19:29:36.481-08:00Glad you're back and can finally beat this gam...Glad you're back and can finally beat this game! I have memories of it, though I can't tell if they're fond or not (I'm guessing not)... but I'd much rather see you play through Ultima IV! I don't remember the Ultima games being terribly good on the consoles, so I'm interested in seeing it again.Jasonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4946916641850178817.post-36778944525925507392013-12-31T06:57:55.304-08:002013-12-31T06:57:55.304-08:00Congrats on finishing this one!

Ultima IV will be quite different, so should make a nice change.<br /><br />Appropriate game length is really dependent on the quality and type of game, if something is overly repetitive or not enjoyable then fifteen hours can seem like a long time. With other games it can feel like nothing.<br /><br />Personally, I have less time these days to play games, so I'm fond of things which require much less time to complete (although I've been playing Mount & Blade Warband recently and it takes forever!)Andy_Panthrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18231815646876343380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4946916641850178817.post-75078016565812320092013-12-31T05:59:04.019-08:002013-12-31T05:59:04.019-08:0015 hours 20 minutes is too long?

Maybe in the NES era, but today's games are usually expected to be at least double that, unless they're bargain priced ($15 or less) or have a strong multiplayer component. Heavenly Sword got a lot of flak for being only 6-10 hours long (maybe a bit more if the player obsesses over 100% completion).<br /><br />Looking forward to your posts on Ultima and Double Dungeons.
