  1. Shorter compact games vs Longer games?

    It is very well known that Gamers do not complete games. Data: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17XDvG-oJlYDHmVoDYdqqGlS1JC0MdRuuCe5uVm8GXaM/edit#gid=0 A significant majority fail to even reach the halfway mark. This indicates that there is a surplus of content that Gamers do not need...
