take him down joker
welcome to watch mojo and today we'll be
counting down our picks for the top 10
games that were too long
heard you wondering about my swords well
ones for monsters
the other for humans
[Music]
for this list we're looking at games
that eat up a huge chunk of your time
to get the full experience we're not
saying any of these games are bad
in fact many are outstanding but they
are all
incredibly time consuming let us know in
the comments which one
you have yet to complete now on to the
top 10 that will finish
long before you finish any of these
games
number 10 batman arkham knight
no back after the small enclosed areas
of asylum and city
rocksteady finally gave us free reign to
explore the entirety of gotham
and they granted us a new tool to do
this the batmobile
but though the batmobile is a great
concept it gets
old fast and you spend a huge portion of
the game destroying tanks
defusing bombs and winning races in the
vehicle
and if you want the nightfall ending not
only do you have to do all the batmobile
content
but you also have to complete every
single riddle even without this
the main story arguably drags on a
little too long
with obvious plot twists lying in wait i
tied her up and left her inside
why what's nick must play i ain't got a
clue
i just brought her here and planted some
of these trophies nearby
number nine red dead redemption 2.
so we do this then we go back to
blackwater to collect
how many times you gonna ask the same
question market
opening on a brutal snowstorm in the
northernmost part of ambarino
red dead 2 starts with a bang but the
story's pacing gets less and less
cohesive the longer it goes on
the game suffers from prequel syndrome
everybody knows the gang will fall apart
and that
many of them will die by the end of the
game the only question is
how but after guarma this gets even
worse
as the gang pushes on for one last
chapter and this seemingly endless
expansion of the story
is to the detriment of the climax's
emotional weight
to get the full narrative experience you
also need to play through the entire
hours-long i ain't epilogue
proud to do nothing as long as it's
honest
and it pays number eight the legend of
zelda
breath of the wild
one of the switch's best-selling games
of all time
it's easy to get lost in the
minimalistic but beautiful world of
breath of the wild
woken from a long sleep link is once
again called upon to defeat ganon
going on a long quest to retrieve his
memories and
ultimately save hyrule but though this
is a noble goal
the game can quickly bloat until you've
spent almost 200 hours
exploring collecting and crafting if you
really want to power through
you can actually defeat ganon fairly
quickly but to get everything breath of
the wild has to offer
you've gotta sink a lot of time into it
number seven persona 5. can you hear me
it seems you've been through a lot
almost anything can happen here
and i can't stop them jrpgs aren't
generally known for their efficiency and
persona 5
is no exception you're getting pulled
along by the memorable story of the
phantom thieves of hearts for 100 hours
minimum it's almost double that if you
want to manage your time fully to max
all the confidants
and even longer if you pick up the
extended version 2020's persona 5
royal royal adds a brand new semester to
the game
another phantom thief and even a new
villain
and with some of the palace's bosses
made tougher it could take even longer
to reach the end
this is most definitely not a game for
casual players
do you have the resolve to challenge the
distortion of the world
number 6 the elder scrolls 5
skyrim
at this point anyone buying an rpg
developed by bethesda would probably
feel shortchanged if they didn't get
dozens and dozens of hours of content
and skyrim remains one of the meatiest
and most popular games they've ever made
but it's still faced with many of the
same problems as
other open world games having too many
meaningless quests that don't actually
contribute to the narrative
and having plenty of story quests that
overstay their welcome
on the bright side the game is so
immersive you might not even notice
you've spent 16 straight hours exploring
tamriel
without accomplishing a whole lot i
am that you have been seeking
number five fallout 4.
the fallout games are all known for
having incredible depth but fallout 4
took this formula which was already
working and added
way more stuff on top making it even
harder to separate the wheat from the
chaff
not only were you being encouraged to
follow a main story that gave
players less agency than most would like
from an rpg
forcing you to search for a missing sun
but it was
also full of radiant quests no matter
how few settlements you find
you'll always have to protect one of
them and so you're perpetually being
distracted from fallout 4's best feature
the genuinely unique side quests
scattered across the commonwealth
number four dragon age inquisition
[Music]
while playing the most bombastic entry
in bioware's dragon age series to date
you may be compelled to ignore the story
altogether and instead waste time
gathering collectibles
many of the game's biomes are far more
interesting than the grasslands and
woods you see
most often the scorching western
approach in snowy and priest do leon
are well worth exploring in depth but
you'll still be doing a lot of
meaningless busy work you've gotta grab
every resource you see for crafting
you've gotta close all the fade riffs
and there's no small number of pointless
side quests available
from scout harding doing everything that
pops up on your map means you might
never get around to ending corypheus's
reign of terror you named your crossbow
bianca
of course number three assassin's creed
odyssey spartans
every breath that you have taken
has led you to this moment larger in any
scope than
any ac game before it odyssey gave
players the entirety of ancient greece
and much of the surrounding archipelago
to explore
unfortunately a large portion of the
game was spent doing boring repetitive
tasks
with little gameplay variety buried
underneath all this
is a great story about family ties the
shadowy cult of cosmos
and a select handful of famous greek
monsters to battle in unique boss fights
but story progression is out of reach if
you're not a high enough level
forcing players to spend hours looting
treasure capturing forts and doing fetch
quests if they want to see
any of the good stuff
number two the witcher 3 wild hunt
anything else you can tell me about
hendrick odd fellow
arroyo who knows where for no apparent
reason
one of the most critically acclaimed
games ever made is cd projekt reds
the witcher 3. with an amazing plot
beautiful graphics and an interesting
and meaningful story behind
every single side quest this game makes
every action feel both substantial
and important but there was one big
problem
the game had so much content that lots
of players never actually finished it
despite wholly enjoying all the time
they spent on the continent
in fact in 2020 cdpr developer patrick
mills
said that cyberpunk 2077 was going to be
shorter and smaller because so many
people
didn't reach the end of witcher 3.

number one metal gear solid 5
the phantom pain i'm going to change
your appearance
we have no other choice what you look
like however take a look at the metal
gear
franchise and you'll find that most of
the games take no longer than 20 hours
to finish
or even 100 not a monumental feat to
accomplish
but when you get to phantom pain you may
as well say goodbye to your social life
the story alone is about 45 to 50 hours
long
and if you want to 100 the game it could
take you a minimum of 150 hours
we repeat a minimum had konami and
kojima
maintained a better relationship the cut
episode 51
probably would have added another 20
hours or so it doesn't help that some
moments in the campaign make the game
feel a lot longer than it already is
