10 Video Games That Were Too Damn Short - Commenter Edition
3. Resident Evil 3
Average Play Length: 5 hours, 54 minutes
Recommended By: Martin Sullivan - "Add Resi 3 to this list. I cleared it in 6 hours on my first playthrough. Great game but over so quickly."
The original Resident Evil 3: Nemesis had a short enough playthrough at around six and a half hours. The new game, spoofed up with extra content and updated graphics and gameplay rocks out at a meager five hours and 54 minutes. Somehow, two decades went by, and the game lost an average playtime of around 44 minutes.
There have been complaints about the length of gameplay despite being a reboot of a game the fans already knew had a short playtime. Seeing as it's a remake, some fans might overlook this issue, and for the most part, they have, but that doesn't mean there aren't a ton of complaints on sites like Reddit about it.
The game didn't make full use of the source material, and the credits roll way faster than the average player would expect. Despite the length problem, the 2020 remake is graphically gorgeous and has the tension and excitement players have come to expect from the Resident Evil franchise.
