I can finally stop saying it (Gaming)

I think that sentiment is way overblown. It’s not wrong exactly, but it’s also not completely true. It’s easy to look at stuff like Assassin’s Creed and just see bloat, but there’s also stuff like Breath of the Wild and Elden Ring (or Death Stranding!) which are just as long, but filled with worthwhile stuff that can legitimately be pleasant for 60 or 80 hours. And then there’s stuff like the new Dead Space which I completed in like 12 hours and was one of the best things I’ve played in the last five years. That’s before even touching non-AAA stuff.
