I don't know what games you're comparing it to - but if a game has over 1 full day of gameplay before you can actually complete the game - that's a long goddamn time.

I'm curious, John - what do you consider a good length for a JRPG, for you to finish the storyline, and only the storyline?

Because most people don't have more than a few hours a day to play a game - with work and school. So if you work, and go to school - and only get in, let's say 2 hours a night somehow (and only play this game, and no others), let's say 4 days a week...that works out to the game being complete in roughly a month.

For main game at least 45-60 hours. Which is basically what most JRPGs have been. I can't say I've ever heard anyone complaining about a final fantasy game being too long.

Besides pretty sure most people who play RPGs make a lot of time to play them when they know they're coming out especially FF games. I know a lot of people who have taken off work/made an excuse to miss classes for final fantasy games.

It is what it is.
