Tom Henderson: LEGO: Horizon Adventures is "relatively short"; can be completed in ~6 hours

Am I right in saying they want 70 euro for this?

If it is like the others Lego games the story is very short.
But the completion (side missions and collections) are very time consuming like 30 hours or more.

Yesterday I and my kid finished Lego Harry Potter 7-8... at the ending screen it shows 9%.
Long road to 100%.

Will wait for PS+ addition lol. I would have taken an Uncharted Lego game over this

Well I will buy it...
They should launch more games like that imo.
PS5 is not that well related to family games... 90% are PS4 games and the few PS5 ones I already beat dozen of times with my kid.

15 hours to platinum

15 hours to platinum

I had the impression he was guessing the platinum with the "depend" and "ish".

Sony ran out of money.

GaaS it is

Offcourse it's a kids game. It's on the switch, you're not the target audience.

And we all know what tom warren no issue with 6 hour games, when it's from ms.

No, it is downgrade from all previous lego games. This makes no sense.

Wrong Tom....

I love LEGO, would have bought this one day-1 if it was an exclusive with 1st party quality.

Now I will wait for the multiplatform bugs to be ironed out and the game going sub-30€ or joining PS+ (like all the other LEGO games).

Good, I prefer them to make more games of the size of a Morales / Rift Apart / Uncharted (not 4) game.

Not all of them have to be huge open worlds, particularly these spionoffs.

No, Sony's gaming division is making record revenue and profit.

The previous Lego games were for previous generations, where having less detailed visuals meant less art work, time and budget was required. And well, they weren't Sony games. Making it shorter they keep the budget at aprox. the same levels, or even smaller.

It's also an experiment to make a Sony IP Lego spinoff targeting kids (and also on Switch+PC), so makes sense they don't want to spend the budget of a big ass AAA game on it at least in the first one.

It's better to make experiments spending relatively low budgets on them. And if they work well, then in the future they may do sequels/Lego spinoffs of other IPs with higher budgets.

Wasn't HiFi $20.00 less than Lego Horizon?

We need Uncharted 5.

No interest in this game but they should have made an Uncharted/Horizon Astro Bot type game. That would have been pretty sweet.
