Doing some research about whip animations and currently watching an IGN review from 2014 of the second Castlevania Lords of Shadow game in the series and the following was uttered:

"Lords of Shadow 2 is a surprisingly long game to boot. You're unlikely to beat the campaign in under 15 hours, unless you're rushing through. And you'll spend closer to 20 if you want to do and see everything."

Makes me wonder what the world would be like if we stayed at that length range...

@BenJoe That wasn't really a long game in 2014, though.

Though I've probably always been playing mostly longer types of games.

@Yora Looking at the most popular games from 2014, 10-15 hours was the average. (According to "Main story" stats from "Howlongtobeat".)
Dragon Age: Inquisition and Dark Souls are two that already pushed 50h back then but Borderlands-PRE, Wolfenstein:TNE, Shadow of Mordor, Alien Isolation, AC Unity, FarCry 4, The Evil Within, all under 20h for main story.
