It depends. 6 hours of an amazing story that I know I'll replay? Sure. 6 hours of the same boring gameplay over and over? Meh.

Halo Infinites campaign was juuuuust fun enough to be okay with how short it was. My buddy and I got the map 100% in just about 8 hours. It was fun, but we were annoyed it was already over.

As I’ve gotten older I’d much rather pay $10/hour for a good game than less for something I’m not actually going to enjoy.

A game you don't play but paid for is infinite cost per hour.

But if you're unable to enjoy games that cost less than $10/hr I feel like you're really missing out. Factorio is a game I got for $20 and enjoyed 660+ hours of gameplay.
