Should You Play It?
Worth It If...
- ✓ You've got a few solid weeks to give it (15.3h main story), long enough to sink in, short enough to actually finish.
- ✓ There's a solid chunk of extra content beyond the credits if you want more (22.4h with extras, 34.6h to 100%).
- ✓ You want to jump straight into the action, this is built for pace, not a slow ramp-up.
- ✓ You want satisfying, high-impact combat more than slow exploration.
Skip It If...
- ✗ You want a slow-burn story first. This leans on moment-to-moment combat over narrative depth.
- ✗ You'd rather explore and take things slow. This keeps you in near-constant combat.
