Holy shit I was just thinking this last night. I picked up Death Stranding Dirt Cheap and I've been working through the the Mountain region. And all I kept thinking was this entire thing felt like a chore. Like I just want to progress the damn story. At that point I decided I won't be wasting my money on games that take 40+ hours to beat.
There's just not enough time in our lives and so many great games to still play.
It's honestly amazing even more games don't feel like a chore considering how many of them involve playing a character doing their job.
Haha that is a good point
