Really? Only 12-15 Hours To Complete

[Wylfen]

I've been waiting for this game since first announcement...in reading the play hours posts, not so sure now. Price doesn't sit right with me for such a short game. Will wait a few months regardless.

[GigaPimp, The Nefarious]

its 12 - 15 hours if you speed run it, but if you take your time and explore areas not only will you get a better experience as a marvel comic and movie fan, you will also get like 20 hours out of the game

[Grim(CW)]

Since when was that short anyways? many games in past years have been trashingly 5 or less (call of duty being most notable) max maybe an 8-10 hour romp if padded with rubbish for completionists and a focus on multiplayer.
This isn't an open world, or RPG with a ton of side things to do. It's a story driven action game with a few rpg elements.
15+ hours is actually really good in todays market for such a game.

15 hours quality content is worth more to me than 40 hour walking simulator

Someone REALLY likes Ubisoft's pointless bloat.

I am pretty happy with playtimes like this for games like this. After the last couple Ubi-titles and Pathfinder I have no interest in any more games that take 200+ hours for the same gameplay over and over again. I do like those titles but I usually don't play them till the end in one go. For a story game like GotG that would be death because after not playing this for a month+ I would never pick it up again.

Yeah I wouldn't have picked up GotG either if it had been yet another grinding game with no ending, I already have Avengers for that.

12hrs here, and I'm on chapter 10. I explore all nooks and crannies, and artificially extend some fights to try takedown combos.

Obviously one can rush through the game and complain about GotG being short

Well it was never going to be an Avengers, there's no way it can compete.

About $5/hour is fine for most games. Thats about the same as a movie ticket. Im fine with it if it ends up being that length.

don't get me wrong everyone has their own idea of value in regards to games.
I think everyone here can agree that despite the doubts eidos montreal managed to deliver a good game however despite all that, I'm unwilling to pay 60 quid because they only allow you to play 1 out of 5 available characters.
if this changes further down the line with free updates I will reconsider it because this looks like a titles that I would spend a lot of time replaying it like I do with 90% of the games in my library.
nonetheless kudos to eidos montreal. I had my doubts back then when they were developing deus ex mankind divided and they proved me wrong. I believe they are the only studio working for square that consistently delivers. ( FORGET THIEF it was just a bad dream )

IMO game was perfectly like a movie. But they should have had Peters visor glitch out on a chapter cause he gets shocked. Can see now that in Guardians of the Galaxy movies they nerfed Mantis powers. Marvel really screwed up Mantis, but I guess the multiverse can save Mantis character.

[DogWater]

just shy of 13hrs, going into chapter 12/17 here. Haven't been particularly dragging my feet. It's definitely not on the short side for this type of game. 12hrs seems nuts unless you're playing it like an arcade game and skipping every possible dialogue.

You basically play as the entire team of Guardians in the game by unlocking their combat moves in the order of your choosing and giving them attack orders in the fights. You also give them commands to interact with the environment and use Rocket's skill with gadgets to upgrade your gear as well. The combats are pretty epic stuff, more cinematic than in Marvel's Avengers though not as complex.

Perspective is that of Peter Quill and of his background story we see the most, the other Guardians mostly just talk through theirs. Drax's story is delved into in much greater detail though, we even get to see his family and home planet.

Giving your other teammates commands is not actually "playing as the entire team". This is essentially a team management game where you give them orders and then the AI performs the actions where you don't ever get to actually play as Drax, Gamora, Groot or Rocket...you never play as anyone aside from Star-Lord. It's a single character player game.

[tHe_RoAjE]

Yes, because games these days don't already suffer from having trash filler content just to boast about high playtimes.

If you want fluff and length-padding, there's any number of open-world games (most Ubisoft games, Boredomlands, etc.) on the market that'll probably suit your tastes better.

Yes, it's a team management game and you don't actually micromanage more than Star-Lord, that's why I said "basically play as the entire team" instead of "actually play as the entire team."

Yeah what BS. I'm not going to spend $60 on a game that I can finish in 1 day if I tried hard enough, and never touch it again. Thank you gamers for making games short because games like the witcher or Grand Theft Auto are too long according to most of you. I'd rather have a game there that I never finished because of the length than to have games there and never touch again because I completed it far too quickly. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ what a joke.
