Game too short?
I've seen a lot of reviews saying so. First ending took me around 22 hours. That seems fair to me, specially since NG+ unlocks new paths.

Idk how the games short some of the boss fights took me multiple hours in attempts to surpass.

Long/short is a matter of opinion. IMO, if I can get at least 1 hour of gameplay for every dollar I spent on a game, I got my money's worth.
took me 20 hours. but yeah, theres 3 playthroughs if you do it right so. you're going to equate close to 60 hours all playthroughs, unless you're one of these guys who never logs off and just speeds through everything with lame mechanics. then maybe less. thats about a dollar an hour. games only $60. i'd say its justified.

I honestly would not say it is too short, a lot of the playtime is bloated, as it is in any FromSoft game since there are stages where you are stuck, but overall i would not say it is too short, I currently have 24 Hours and i am a third through NG+, i am still having fun trying different builds and hence get disappointed that even tried.

I think its really OK content-wise, considering you can finish it 3 times before youve seen all of it.

But I am playing this game extra-slow.. very few mecha games out there to play once I finished AC6 :(
Reminder that a lot of people never touched NG+ of Nier Automata either.

Took me around 20 hours to clear, and that was despite me grinding for money to buy all the guns in the shop and fully completing the arena. I got to chapter 4 in NG+ in just a few hours.

That's not how it works. You will fly through the story in NG+ because you are doing starting level missions with end game level gear.

Sure, but its a play at your own pace game. You don't have to speed through the runs, and there are different objectives than before. Like I said, It might take less time. I already made that clear.

I found the game too short mostly because I'm a veteran. Meanwhile, modern audiences still haven't passed the tutorial boss & the game has been out for over a week already.

If a game is too short, it's usually offset by replayability, which Armored Core is quite good at.

It's about 50 hours to 100% AC6. By comparison, it's around 6-10 hours to 100% AC3.

its a pvp game and a lot of people are coming in thinking its anything but. Its obvious why they're so confused and misinformed.

I feel like I got my money's worth. It took me about 70 hours to get all endings, all combat logs and all hidden parts.

IMO, the game's just starting once you finish ng.
