I applaud this move IF the 20-30 hours is indeed quality content. (to be determined) Most of us have to be selective of how many massive open world games we can take on in our adult lives. I had a good 30-40 hours in Odyssey and still felt overwhelmed that I had so much left to do. I always meant to go back to it, especially after the PS5 patch, but just never found the time. I never got more than 5 hours into Valhalla bc I felt that nagging inside to go back and finish Odyssey… but even more bc I hadn’t finished Origin either. The last one I finished was Black Flag. I enjoy them, besides some annoying Ubisoft tropes and filler… but the pile of backlog was just getting too damn big. I welcome a shorter game, and knowing going into it that it is shorter, I may feel more compelled to play completely through it b4 finishing the others. IF it is good.
