And here I am 120h into BG3, and still haven't finished it.

To be fair, BG3 is very much the exception. It's a fantastic exception that others could learn from, but an exception nonetheless.

To be fair, it's the new standard for me. Full price? Better not be MTX and needs 100h+.

I'm with you on that front. I almost never pay full price for games and loathe microtransactions.

I think that the typical AAA MTX game will not mostly be beneficial for big studios. At least I hope. Things will shift back to smaller games and those AAAA titles.
