II know things doesn’t scale but I would love a AA cRPG at BG3 standard but a fifth of the length. Then I may actually finish it. 20-30h experience would be just great.

That game is in no way 20-30h…unless you speedrun the main quest and even that’s questionable.

Working on it… Cleared tutorial island for the second time, took a breather and now its been a couple of weeks. Sigh. Soon I will have lost the feel for the run and start over.

As I barely have managed to squeeze in 5-10 hours of gaming per week this winter season the thought of spending 300+ hours in a single game is overwhelmingly daunting. A year with a single game. Ugh…

My best gaming experience this last year was with a short game that I knocked out in a weekend. Got a good satisfying experience and a conclusion to it. Git me rethinking things.

To sped that much time in BG3, you basically need to be trying to go as slowly as possible or restart a bunch of times.

You can easily beat the game in 50-80 hours without purposefully skipping content.
