"I recently had a Gears of War 2 marathon and managed to finish the game in under ten hours on the day it launched. When I told some people they laughed and thought I was nuts, some were even upset saying that I had cheapened the experience of playing through the title. I do not think I cheapened the experience, I played through and listened to the story and looked for COGs and extras, but still managed to finish the game in coop with a friend in the first day."

Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
If so I wish I had your job that would enable me to do such things with the many games I want to play currently....
Wait, you DO have a job right? And also, quit stating that you didn't "cheapen the experience" like a parrot.
Playing a game straight thru is fine and does not alter the experience at all.
Playing a game straight is good it keeps you entertained and keeps the story alive not forgetting parts.
I wonder how much longer reviews will keep a blind eye to length of games, I wouldnt be surprised to see games start taking a hit in score pretty soon.
Its faster than slaying boars in the forest for 2exp I suppose.
