      Dragon Quest XI has a pretty long play time, I have 128 hours doing the main scenario + almost all the side quests and a part of the game I can’t talk about here because of the spoilers. If you’re a completionist then you can possibly have 200 hours or more, I’m not joking 😄👍

    So, here's the story behind Suikoden I
    The creator of the series was asked to do an RPG for the Playstation, and so he wrote up a story, characters, setting, and so on for the game. But after looking at it he realized that the inexperienced team he had probably couldn't pull it off the way he wanted, so he wrote a second, simpler story to ease his team into the process and introduce the players to the setting he was planning to use.
    Suikoden 2 was the story that was written first- Suikoden 1, written later, was the one Murayama thought his team was capable of making at the time.

    I follow another channel who is really into Vandal Hearts and I'm surprised to see it here. Doesn't it have multiple chapters full of long battles, near the length of Final Fantasy Tactics (a 30+ hour game)? I guess that's the difference a strong narrative without much faffing around makes.

    Grinding in Ys the ark of napishtim is what pushes the playthrough up the the 15 hour mark??
    do you know anything about games?
    yes, that game was brutally hard compared to other Ys games, but there is no way it takes less than 15 hours.
    Even with a guide you have to back track and can even get lost in certain dungeons. Then theres the fact that you NEED to grind to certain levels, since being 1-2 level below the "invisible" level requirement will get you slaughtered.
    once you level to that invisible level requirement, the current dungeon you are in will become easy.
    By the time i completed the first dungeon, i had already put in 3 hours of game play

    I beat Sakura Wars V So Long My Love in 30 hours (first playtrough, Gemini route), so i think this game is ,,medium long'' , devinitely this is not ,,short'' JRPG (it's also one of the longest VN games). Especially when you want see every ending and cutscene / event in this game, so this game is 60 hours to complete in 100%.

    • @Freedom_84
      @Freedom_84 5 месяцев назад +3

      his claims about video game length are based off the way HE plays games. Which is basically zoom through the story, without doing ANY side content or grinding for items/exp/etc, or even talking to NPCs.
      he also doesnt bother to collect all treasures along the way. FF3 for example you could spend a few hours in the final dungeon alone with the random battles and seeking out the best weapons (which are all hidden behind boss fights)
      this is no way to play video games
