Commissar SFLUFAN Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Assassin's Creed Odyssey will require more of a time investment than Origins, according to game director Scott Phillips. Speaking in the video above to Game Informer, Phillips is asked if the game is about the same length as Origins, and answers "No, much longer."

Best Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Jesus. Took me 35 hours to beat Orgins story. That's like 100 hours in my tiny lil brain. I will never beat any games if they keep getting longer and longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxEvil AshxX Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I wonder if that's in terms of story, or just collect-a-thon shit that's basically just busy-work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I think I spent close to 70 hours playing Origins and it's DLC... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillzdadirecta Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I'm starting to believe that games should get either shorter or adopt a more episodic approach. I still barely have a couple of hours in origins. I put damn near a hundred hours into Shadow of War Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbob42 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Origins had a lot of content, but as I understand it, the main story was actually relatively middling for length. Â I assume this guy's talking about the main story, and not just side content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Fucking seriously. I found out you had to do all the Riddler shit in Arkham Knight to get the "good" ending and just said no fucking way, fuck that, and looked up the video on YouTube after beating the game. And, honestly, are you fucking shitting me? I would have been FUMING if I'd wasted my time on going back to do all that bullshit only to get that minor addition to the ending video. I was indescribably happy that I decided to just look it up on YouTube once I'd finished watching it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CastlevaniaNut18 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Yep, some things just aren't worth the reward.  I detailed my thoughts on the Riddler stuff in another thread, but I never regretted not spending all that godaamn time collecting all the trophies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbob42 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 You gotta know when to cut your losses and change up how you play for your personal enjoyment rather than some false sense of accomplishment. It's much better for your gaming experience and I'd imagine at least slightly for your mental health! Torturing yourself just because is bad!
