Yes, it’s horrible. My goal with a game is not to find something to fill hundreds of empty hours of my life, I have enough shit to do already. I’m looking for an experience, like when I go to the movies.
Maybe related, but I’m also not a big fan of TV series for the same reason, even the good ones have some filler and waste time.
I remember once when my wife and I binge watched some exciting thriller series on Netflix, that was impossible to stop. We did 2 seasons with 10x1 hour episodes, and then realized it was Sunday evening, and our weekend was gone. It had more seasons, but we said nope, it’s just not worth our time.
Funnily enough I don’t watch movies very often for similar reasons. They feel so shallow compared to a good series due to the limited time the creators have to tell any stories.

You’re saying you’ve only ever watched one tv show ever? That’s wild
This was me up to about age 24. I just read books instead

I just refuse to watch any shows with episodes longer than 35 minutes. If I wanted a movie I’d watch a movie
