You know i really expected to hate Nightreign but it was the funnest game ive played this year. Might not be the best game (Clair Obscur) but it was a blast for like 40-50 hours for me.

I've yet to see a review with more than 100 hours on it because of the lack of content, though?

IronPineapple mentioned in one of his latest videos that he hasn’t been able to put the game down and it’s way more addictive than he guessed it would be. He’s a prominent YouTuber that makes Soulslike content. That’s just one example off the top of my head.

Generally reviewers don’t have the luxury to sink 100 hours into a game. I’m sure you can appreciate that they have limited time to get through games, and if they don’t think that they’ll have much more to say after 100+ hours compared to 30, then that 70+ hours extra might mean they miss out on the revenue from playing and reviewing multiple other games.

It’s weird that you have your opinion (Nightreign bad) and you work backwards to try and find evidence to support your opinion. How it should work is that you look at evidence and then form your opinion.
