Honestly that sounds fine. It's okay if a small game is only entertaining for 10 hours provided the price is reasonable. We shouldn't expect every game to be an infinitely replayability mill
It confuses the hell out of me that we don't say that about any other media.
"This movie that I spent $18 per person on only lasts 97 minutes what a rip off."
I mean, most of us who recognize that that's shitty value just don't go to theatres.
It's why they're dying.
I agree. But people should be aware that even though "1.0" released in 2022, Cosmoteer has been around since 2011. It's far from being the worst example of a game in eternal early access, though I would say it isn't one of the better ones.
wasn't portal just a mod? very short game, but has some of the most memorable moments in all of gaming
portal was its own game, but it had a very unenthusiastic release. stanley parable and gmod were mods
