How long is too long for a video game (in terms of hours)?

Recommended Posts

What do you feel is an ideal number of hours for a game, especially an open world game or other longer-form game? When does a game overstay its welcome? Is there a certain number of hours past which you lose patience, or is it more dependent on the content and flow of the game?

It really depends on the quality of the content and the pacing. A 20-hour game with constant variety can feel perfect, while a 100-hour game with a lot of filler might overstay its welcome. For open-world games, I think 40–60 hours is a sweet spot if the exploration feels rewarding.
