I remember playing a FF game. It was FF IV, I think and it was the first (and only) FF game I have ever played, so I didn't know hhow long it was going to be. Now, I don't recall exactly what happened, but I had played the game for a long time already, a few weeks, so I was sure that I was almost at the end.
And then some apocolyptic event took place, and I learned that I was really only halfway through the game. Being really into it, I was very exited. I LOVE it when a good game is longer then you origonally predicted.
In OoT, it was a little obviouse that after you got the MS, there was more to the game. In TP, it was a little more subtle with the mirror shards. To get back on topic now, I want a long game. Not just long like, "It's going to take you months to beat this game." But more, "There is so much to do in this game, there's no way you can finish it quickly."
