Who cares? What's the perfect length for a penis?
50 hours is a good length.
Though I feel like once you pass 100 hours even good games wear thin. Looking at you Persona 5.
30 to 40 hours for the main quest, 60 to 70 hours when doing all optional content.
Agreed on all counts.
Was there ever a single good sub 100 hour JRPG though?
50 is just about right for a modern dumbed down WRPG however.
wow that's a lot of main quest
is it okay if there's no voice acting?
even better
>50 hours
Close.
Keep in mind that Chrono Trigger is only 20-25 hours long. And what are you even talking about, 99% of JRPGs don't go over like 70.

>99% of JRPGs don't go over like 70
Yeah maybe if you rush them and skip on all the juicy optional content like the ADHD faggot you are.
TWEWY is like under 30 hours unless you do all postgame content and super completionist shit. The best Mario RPGs are all under 30 hours.
>tfw 18 cm
>doesn't skip the meaningless extra filler content because of his ADHD
fucking retard
There isn't a single good 100+ hour JRPG
Get on my level, bitch.
Took me ~1k hours.
ADHD faggot
You're right, that's not ADHD, that's just autism.
20-30 hours is the ideal, all the best games RPGs like Shadow Hearts, Deus Ex, Witcher 2 and Dragon Quest 5 fit this bill. There is no reason for any game to be longer than 40 hours on an initial playthrough
Sounds about right
please post it
That's his private penis
But I want to see it too.
game is 100 hours
>skip cut scenes
game is 40 hours
20 hours with replayability in mind, be it NG+, or legitimate alternate story paths of meaningful consequence.
video game achievements, are not real achievements.
Have sex.
Why do so many discord trannies have this as their avatar?
>can be completed in 2 days and 2 hours
>perfect
Too much for me. I used to 100% Kotor 1/2 in 20 and DA:O in 25 when I had fuck all to play and would just speedrun same games.
Have you considered you are just very slow?
>Symphonia all titles on everyone
That's dedication, I want to go for it one day.
>Berseria main story, 44 hours
wut?
length only matters to no-lifers and poorfags
a good game should be a good game, who cares about the length
If you're playing games where you could measure the amount of time it takes to beat, chances are that its easy as fuck. The people who were shitpositng about how Sekiro was 9 hours long had no idea that it was going to take them much longer.
It's an average, you'd be surprised how slow normalfags are. Or how fast autists can be.

30 hours is not even worth mentioning
50 hours is a game that could be good but could have been much better if it actually had content
80 hours is the beginning of the point where a game can be 10/10
120 hours for a non-openended endgame game is generally the peak point
300+ hours for non-openended is a bit tedious, but still tolerable if the combat system is fun enough, example being SO4 chaos mode endgame grinding in order to beat final form gabriel/EQ.
no upper limit on infinite endgame games like disgaea.
fucking timelets, do you have jobs or something?
>30 hours is not even worth mentioning
why
the only 30-40 hour 10/10 game I can name in the 3 decades I have been playing games is Radiant Historia, there are zero others.
I'm not really done with a mechanics heavy game like EO until I dunk 100 hours into it.
1 inch bigger than yours
>have sex
>confuses padding with content
Everyone is a timelet, you only have like 125,000 hours of free time in your life. Twice that at the very most if you're top level hikki neet
I found 80 hours to be a good length for a main quest + non-secret side quests. Maybe half again that for a full 100% gotten everything one.
Maybe when you're a kid with a shit ton of free time
20-30 is ideal during adulthood.
that can't be a legitimate amount, I put over 50K hours into just Diablo II, and there are plenty of other games I have 10K+ hours into. I'm only 31.
>30 hours is not even worth mentioning
Stopped reading there
These are some real games.
>oh no i can't get a girlfriend, life sucks, and i have no friends
>80 hours is the perfect length for a videogame!
>Games where the beginning, end, and everything in between are all completely identical
I don't understand. You've seen everything a Monster Hunter game has to offer within the first hour.
Over 50k hours is over 6 years of continuous playtime. You'd have to be playing for around 8 hours every day since Diablo II came out.
Idling doesn't count. But you've only got 47 years left anyway.
>I don't want a girlfriend, life is comfy without a job, and I don't want friends or the responsibility that comes with them
>80 hours is the perfect length for a videogame to develop it's plot in, and since I have nothing but free time, I can take full advantage of this!
But you haven't seen that rare item in your inventory slot yet.
Or whatever the fuck it is, I have no idea what goes on in Monster Hunter games that could take so long.
average time for 4 years straight was 18-20 hours a day, with my absolute peak being 198 hours of straight playtime; I did not idle ever, I logged off when I wasn't playing, which was almost never. I slept around 2 hours in any given week, and up until the heart attack stayed awake on caffeine alone, I lost over 60 pounds over the course of this period of time because I rarely ate.
5-9 hour main story
99+ worth of content
Around that, yeah. Past the 60 hour mark I always start feeling burned and want to move on to other things, even if I'm simultaneously loving the game. A game can only feel fresh and exciting for so long.
I don't think there is a perfect length, if the game is longer than that and it keeps me engaged for that amount of time, then that's the perfect length for that game, if it's shorter than that but it feels like it's not overstaying its welcome, then that's the perfect length for that game. It just depends on what content is in those hours for me to decide if the length of a game is to its benefit or not, there's no universally correct length, I don't think.
Well you can acknowledge that you're an anomaly right? Most people, even the most antisocial NEETs don't game as much as you, and you'll likely die years younger than average life expectancy so you're still a timelet.
EO games are 40 hours long
>I put over 50K hours into just Diablo II
wow what the fuck
P5 didn't really overstay its welcome for me, I would have even liked it to be longer, but it also only took me 80 hours as opposed to the 100 a lot of people seemed to take with it.
probably, I irreversibly fucked up my body in many ways just over that period of time and have done nothing to change it since, which is beginning to show already.
Are you talking about casual playthroughs because most JRPGs I've played are 40 hours or less
senpai if you don't max out all classes and kill every boss and try out all sorts of things, you haven't beaten EO.
I have 1200+ hours on FU, 300+ on Portable 3rd and 800+ on 4U. Gameplay is good as fuck and if you have people to play with in local it's peak videogame enjoyment.
That's all there is to it.
There's nothing forcing you to play a game non-stop, you know. 80 hours over a course of a month or two is not much, plenty of time for whatever else you have going in your life.
