I read this game is only 11-12 hours long.
Not worth it if true.

So, if it isn't worth it for you what was exactly the point in wasting your time telling us?
It's a remake of Dead Space what did you expected? AC valhalla? Far Cry 6? or some other garbage free roam game that wastes your time with the same repetitive 5 or so missions for 50 to 60 hours?

I’d take 10 hours of quality over 50 hours of filler content in a game. Length of the game shouldn’t be the primary factor in value.

It is the best hours you will spend in a horror game. Quality over Quantity. Dead space game is and will be forever one of the best horror games ever created. I am looking forward to seeing how they improved on the game with graphics and such.
Same goes with most single player non open world games. RE village was about 10 hours if I can recall as well. It sold around 4mil copies by end of last year if im not mistaken.

Well you'll be happy to know the first reviews just dropped and it's actually fully open world with thousands of planets you can visit and over 300 different endings. But yeah the main campaign is only about 11 hrs long.

I understand, but why can't we have 25 hours of quality for $60?

Dead Space 2008 was certainly about that long, given that it was a fairly linear horror story. It was absolutely worth the price tag at the time.

With how much the level designs have changed to allow free roam, and with that certainly having potential for a Ubisoft-esque putting aside the main story to grind out something or explore at your leisure, the actual gameplay time of the Remake will vary.

There ARE ex-Ubisoft devs involved, with some Mass Effect: Andromeda writers doing the re-writing, but hey, people liked those games so YMMV,

Because it'd feel padded out? The original game was around the same length, you are absolutely going to run into major pacing issues trying to make it 25 hours. It depends on how it's paced but I've absolutely enjoyed 10 hour games far better than 50 hour open world games where I'm just sick and tired of it by the end, going "oh thank god" when I get to the credits.

So I'm guessing 11-12 hrs is doing nothing but the main story and no exploring or side content sounds about right remember the Spider-Man games there like 9hrs of main content then 20hrs of all side content plus there's a special ending for the Dead Space remake for New game+

One of the videos the devs said how content that was cut from the original has been put back into this remake....
If that is the case wouldn't it be a bigger / longer game ?

Yea they added old cut content and new side content to were you have interactions with npcs that were only in voice logs before and the way the map is designed it's like Prey to were you'll be backtracking to places that were locked before

Yeah, it's quite the narrative experience in hitting wacky pre-rendered story cut scenes where the MC stands stunned like a newbie after hours of stomping through the open world like Rambo.

It's what my family loves to rip most about Ubisoft games.

If they have added a bunch of side missions, that would help. Have they?

I don't know how much they added because I don't want to know to much but I do know the map is similar to Prey like to were it's all open but doors are locked until you get access so backtracking to explore or side missions and there's now side content and interactions with npcs that were only in voice logs in the og game plus they added some of the cut content from the og game as well so it's bound to have more content and be longer.
