WHY THIS GAME IS SOO SHORT???

[devildog1995]

It took me about 70 hours to expore 90 persent of map events, pass all side quests and than main line. Really i was playing without any rush. I hoped, that after exploring there will be large scale company with corporate wars, where u even can join like militech, visit many locations like hospital, this large flying ships above the city buuuut nothing happened and i understood that point of the main game line is to lick as.. o f silverhand or not, and even this licking is too short. I am really wondered that development of the game took so long for suck shot game. Even single player in such games as dying light, rdr2, witcher, fallout took me about 120+ hours to pass.... They made really good cinematic missions like go and meet him, "look how we made this cinematic movement of his face" but i am not pleased with that.

If you talk about the game being short, some nimrod will (and already has most likely) tell you it's your fault because you didn't spend 100 hours killing random people on the street, trying to climb up buildings with nothing in them, and so on.

True to an extent but a lot of people skip a ton of the actual activities and content in the game that is meant to be experienced. A lot of the side content also changes how the game ends or can unlock contacts and opportunities. If people choose not to play that content and then claim the game is short that's just dishonest. Funny thing is you can check people's achievements and see they didn't play half the game.

There's 1. Main story questline, 2. Romance/Character questline, 3. Side gigs for money, 4. Random encounters.

That's the content. Only 1 and 2 affect anything storywise, and both are very short added up. A half dozen missions for each person that really don't go on very long.

1 and 2 together is barely 20 hours of gameplay. The rest is filler. It's a short game.

I've literally been rushing, to try and unlock all the achievements, and at almost 90 hours in, wouldn't really say that's short...

175 hours to complete everything doesn't sound short to me.

It took me 236 hours to complete Valhalla, and it has two DLC on the way for Ireland and Paris. That game could hit 300 hours.

If Cyberpunk releases some more content this year, it could easily clear 200 hours, which is quite large, considering the average gamer has the attention span of a gnat and doesn't like to stick with one game for very long. Many gamers like to refund, complain, set completion records, cut corners, cheat (exploit flaws), and move on to the next best thing as fast as possible. They have no patience.

Gone are the days when they'd commit themselves to multiple years of playing the same MMORPG on a subscription service.

I agree, but there's a point beyond which doing the same thing over and over again doesn't count as 'more content' especialy when there's no level scaling. If I beat the game instead of doing 25 more 'shoot some gang members' generic gigs that are 'very low danger' and will drop guns that I couldn't possibly use because they are 10 levels under me, can you really get on my case for 'not experiencing everything'?

I mean some people will enjoy that I guess, I think most people would think of it as tedious busy work. So like I said, you gotta look at signs that things were cut, and things that are missing from this game that you would expect from the genre. Because 'how many hours did you spend shooting TigerClaws' is way too subjective.

Cut content

Bad management

Impossible deadlines

Lies about the development state

It's like the Captain planet of disastrous launches.

I'm expecting my first playthrough that I am working on now to be at least 200 hrs. That's main story and all the significant side gigs/content/map markers the game points out.

65 hours didn't explore that much. You burned thru content to quick instead of enjoying the ride it can occur that way...

70 hours is like watching 35 movies btw...that's a lot of content for your money bruh...

70 hours here...that's like whatching 35 movies...that's not short dude

In this case it's more like watching the same movie 35 times.

How much of that content was "20 second fight against generic gang members with absolutely no difficulty, then 2 minutes picking up their guns and items in the area."

You want to compare it to watching movies, then how much of that 70 hours isn't watching a movie, but actually a trailer for a movie?

Go to a movie theater, and they show you 30 minutes of trailers, then the movie, then 30 minutes of credits. Do you claim the movie is 3 hours long, even though only 2 hours was spent watching an actual movie?

it is really short for game that was in develop about 8 years. about 55-60 hours took exporing and other story line and it is fu.. short. And i should note that my first playtrought was for a hacker, and most time i was just planning the attacks. Now i play on a hardest level killnig enemies with hands and it is faster.

All games are like that. It's the basic 30 second gameplay loop that pretty much all games have. Not liking it is fine, it's not for you.

This guy thinks 70 hours is short lmao

This seems very disingenuous to me. I think you damn well know that some games have content that is more or less repetitive than other games, and that there's a point to be made there. If you don't want to admit it you could have just said nothing. We're trying to talk about how much actual content there is in this game, and how much is filler to pad out the play time.

no it really isn't...there are plenty of stories...

if you do the game again...that's like watching another 35 hour movie twice...dingleberry.
