There's too many games in the world that I want to play and I like to change it up in terms of what kinds of games in playing, and often have different games on the go at the same time on different platforms to keep up with my adhd. I really appreciate short games that give me a full experience without overstaying it's welcome. Very few games can keep me going 30+ hours in, they have to either be REALLY good, the most fun I've had in ages or a truly gripping storyline with fantastic pacing, especially if it's an RPG expecting 100+ hours.
Some busywork in games is fine as long as it's not overdone. the insomniac Spider-Man games come to mind with that. Traversal and combat are fun enough to carry those games through any lull it may have that it actually makes going around ticking stuff off the map genuinely fun for me. And usually I hate it when games just fill a map with icons of things for you to do. It helps that its world isn't THAT big compared to the likes of farcry, at least relatively to how fast you can traverse it.
