Title: A Question
Post by: RedKnight on April 26, 2007, 10:33:14 PM
Would you mind if an RPG was short, but it was still a good quality RPG? (I.E., Little or no Grammar and Spelling Mistakes, Good story, Believable Characters, Good Music, Good Areas, Etc.)

If it was at least 30 minutes, then yes. 20 minutes, maybe. More than 30, yeah. These are just my opinions. I do not speak for the rest of the congregation.

Really? Cool. I was worried when I announced my new game, Aoi Hoshi on these forums, because I can't seem to make a very long game for some reason. But now I feel better. Thanks.

I would play a game that only took half an hour. For sure, or heres an idea, release your game in chapters. Instead of making one huge game all at one time, release the game in 30 or 25 min chapters. That would also be pretty cool.

The game's plot doesn't really seem to set the stage for a long game. Maybe an Hour, or a little longer at best. I don't really like separating things into chapters anyway.

If the story and characters are good then I most of the time don't care if it's long or short.
An advantage of a short game is that it's more likely that I will finish the game  ;D

A good length RPG in this case (considering it's free) would be like: 1 - 3 hours I suppose.

As long as the story was good enough, I would enjoy a 30 minute or so game.

Short games can be enjoyable.
