The developer of Hellblade 2 has explained why it prefers making shorter games, insisting digital distribution has opened the door “to games of all shapes and sizes.”
Sure if it’s 15 bucks, a 6 hours game is fine. Else I could use that money to buy games that are much longer and cost the same and bring me the same enjoyment. I’ve played enough games to tell you that no game exists, that is so much better, to justify 70€ for a 6 hours game. Not even something like Portal.

Portal is definitely a $20-30 game. Still great though.
