And that is the inherent issue with this line of thinking. And I still love LoL! But it just doesn't compare. If I was asked whether I would rather play LoL from a fresh perspective, or TLOU, I would choose TLOU every time even though I've spent about the same amount of money on both (and LoL was optional, of course) and a LOT more time in LoL than TLOU. I have played thousands of hours in League of legends over 5ish years. I think back on it and it makes me happy, it is time I thoroughly enjoyed. When I think about the game, I think of my attachments to the characters, my love of the world they created, the messages sent in the game, the meatyness of the combat. ![]() What is the length? What is my "dollar per hour" fun amount? Honestly, it doesn't matter at all. I would without question pay full release price to re-experience The Last of Us fresh. This obsession with quantifying "fun" into a dollar amount is a red herring. I think that this entire topic is a manifestation of what I think is a currently popular but ultimately misguided approach to video games.
