Message: [QUOTE="Enian, post: 17447, member: 49458"] It comes down to whether or not the game can keep a balance between story advancement and gameplay challenge, whether or not it becomes unbearingly repetitive or whether or not has an interesting world to keep being in. I dropped Tales of Symphonia because it simply dragged on too much and the gameplay itself was not interesting enough to keep going past 20-30 hours (I think). That problem is typical for JRPGs. But then there are games that have other interesting aspects that make me keep coming back, like Genshin Impact for example. The world is gorgeous and the gameplay quite fun. Eventhough I always get tired of doing dailies after a while and stop, I have now come back to it multiple times. Another game I dropped was AC Odyssey, after roughly 100 hours. I hated every minute of that game. A butchery of the franchise. The only thing that kept me playing was my love for Assassins Creed and the granted beautiful open world. Everything else was way too much. Too big, too many quests, too long, too fantasy, too quipy, too cash grabish, too many microtransactions, etc.. A more controversial one is The Witcher 3. I couldn't enjoy that game, simply because it too overwhelmed me with things to do. The difference between Odyssey and The Witcher 3 was that the latter was overflowing with actually good stuff. That is worse however, because then you can't simply ignore it, but are "forced" to endulge in it. I don't want to walk from one quest point to another and pick up 20 more quests along the way.
