Honestly from someone who has a backlog of hundreds of games, this is probably a plus. Too many games nowadays have filler that don’t add to the enjoyment of the game. Sometimes I might wish a game was longer, but longer in the areas I found enjoyable, not endless fetch quests
Me too. Just bought a Steam Deck recently and I’m playing a lot of games from the ps2 era… And I always find myself stuck to “complete every level with 5 stars” or “grab all collectibles” instead of focusing on good content (or just clearing the game normally to start emptying this backlog…)
