How long should the campaign be for you to feel satisfied?

I loved that Sony commercial back in the day where a dude had a girlfriend that thought Uncharted was a movie and kept making him play it. How lucky right?
If anyone can find that clip would be great for a laugh.
For an uncharted game, even 15 hours seems too long
this. its gonne be around 5 hours just like the other ones
Damn. Even Order: 1886 4 hours was way brutal. Thank goodness it wasn't 5 hours or I may never finish that game just in a nick of time to return it to Redbox.
I was thinking 10-12 hours, actually. It'd lose a lot of momentum and pacing if it went as long as 20 hours.

Huh? Literally no Uncharted campaign ever has been 5 hours.
The first Uncharted game has an average campaign time of 8.5 hours, and a speedrun time of 5 hours and 17 minutes.
Uncharted 2 had an 11 hour long campaign, and a speedrun time of 6 hours and 34 minutes.
Uncharted 3 had a 9 hour long campaign, and speedrunning it takes 6 hours at the very least.
Uncharted: Golden Abyss has a 10 hour long campaign, and it takes 8 hours if you rush through the game.
Literally no Uncharted game takes just 5 hours to beat- even the shortest Uncharted game takes more than 5 hours to beat on a speedrun. Stop pulling shit out of your ass.

Sorry, bro, numbers prove you wrong here. The shortest Uncharted game is 1.25 times longer than Halo 5's campaign :(

keep trolling, maybe a few of your lem buddies will believe you, but thats about it.
A game can be short and worth it if it's fulfilling non-stop action back to back, Vanquish was a great example of this. If it's going to be a game broken up into cinematic moments, set piece moments, QTE moments, action gameplay sections, puzzles, probably needs to be extended to around 15-20 hours, that's a nice sweet spot. If it's linear it can be shorter but if it's open in a Metroidvania fashion like Tomb Raider with collectibles then it needs to be longer for to accommodate people who just blow through games and completionists alike. Like many games, it can probably get by with a subpar campaign if the multiplayer kicks ass, but a game like this should (I'd hope) be one that can be widely celebrated just for the single player campaign by itself, MP should just be the icing on the cake.
Regardless, more the merrier so 25+ please, in actual gameplay though, don't pad it out heavily with walk sections and cinematics just to say it's longer than it is.
It'll be about 10-12 hours long, 15 if you want to explore, find treasure clues, search for treasure. It's also going to have more replay value than past Uncharted games since it has multiple paths, whether you want more action or more adventure.
People are being ridiculous with the length. If you want an Uncharted style game that takes 20+ hours then it needs like 8+ years of development with a 200+ million budget. This isn't an RPG with reused assets, backtracking, fetch quests, and running around doing nothing.
10-12 is good for this type of game. 15 is too long. I'm more worried about the quality of the time, not the quantity.

i don't think you should count on that.

@mems_1224: The average playtime for Uncharted 1-3 is 9 to 11 hours. Stop spreading fud.

Terminated with Statistics.
@retsuus: Did you actually create an alt, just to troll so poorly?
I'm sorry that the truth hurts so much
Merry Christmas!
What is the ratio of meaningful gameplay to pointless gameplay? I think that's the bigger question. Uncharted 2 was riddled with cinematic walking type "gameplay" and brain-dead sections in which AI either played half the game for you or tell you exactly what to do.
@RTUUMM: "but I'll bet it will be about as long as TLoU, 10-12 hours."
Wow, I thought that game streched to 20 hours for alot of people including myself?
I beat it in 14 hours but I minus 2-3 hours because I would waste alot of time searching every corner of the area.
@charizard1605: might want to define what you men by a speedrun though. Fastest possible, or fastest on average for a decent player, because if you just go on YouTube and search "Uncharted Speedrun ", you'll see the 3rd one takes the longest at 2.5 hours, with the first one doable under 1 hour. I'd link you but I'm on mobile and I trust you can do a simple YouTube search to verify.
Now, I know no one is judging the length of a game by its Speedrun time, but I think clarification is in order (seeing as there is a 4 hour difference between your cited Speedruns, and YouTube documented ones), especially when using those claims to make someone else look like a fool.
