I've grown increasingly tired of all these huge-for-the-sake- of-being-huge games. Partly because I just don't want to dedicate 500 hours to exploring every nook and cranny. But also because -in order to fill out all these aforementioned nooks and crannies- developers are increasingly turning towards procedural generation and the result is just boring grind. I'd much rather a smaller, better paced adventure. But that's just me. The nice thing about modern video gaming is there's a game to suit EVERYBODY'S taste these days. ;-)
