Damn you're not worried about death? I don't have unlimited time.

But I have to heavily disagree with "in most cases if the game is 100+ hours it’s unlikely to be 100+ hours of quality entertainment."

Sounds like we have different tastes. Cause 200 hours in HD2 is 200 hours of entertainment: Why else would I keep playing?

I just don't think all hours of playtime are equal. I don't have an issue putting 80 hours into into helldivers because I consider those quality hours. I do have an issue putting 80 hours into Far Cry 6, because most of that is extremely boring. But if you consider everything in price per hour then those two things should be equals (assuming we have FC6 discounted to the same price as helldivers). But they aren't for me and I very much doubt they are for you.

Damn you're not worried about death?

Why should I? I'll be dead then.
