Does anyone else miss the days where RPG's were actually long? If you go back and play some older ones it becomes so obvious it's almost painful. As much as I do enjoy the newer ones I think the more advanced the graphics get the shorter the game becomes.
Even though there have been advances in how much you can put on a single disk it seems like most developers are reluctant to release Multidisk games anymore. Looking back I feel really nostalgic about going and buying games like the Final Fantasy titles or Legend of Dragoon and knowing I'd be in for a long gaming experience. Nowadays just when I think a game's getting to a good turning point in the plot it's suddenly the final boss and even though I enjoyed the game I almost always end up feeling a little disappointed afterward.
