In my mind, their actions speak louder than words, and this game is worth it.

I think of this reviewer as being someone who deeply loves this franchise but just ground the previous game into powder. This new release is their only opportunity to revisit the franchise they love. Despite being very disappointed, it still beats not playing in that world.
For someone like me, I think this is a helpful and honest review. There are many reasons for larger play time that are unrelated to game quality. I don't personally consider it to be an indicator. I think I already also have issues with using it as a measure like $/h. It sort of seems problematic to always be asking "how long will this entertain me?". I feel like we should be valuing other aspects more highly.
