How Long Is Hotline Miami: Collected Edition?

Do you like to hurt people? (with a mediocre sequel)
Playing Hotline Miami again for this review made me love this game even more. The engaging gameplay, amazing setting, use of color, music and intriguing plot (which is kinda ruined if you get the secret ending me) fascinated me as much as the first time I played it almost seven years ago.
It's a shame the sequel, in its intent to 'be bigger', ruins the puzle-like combat scenarios with more action and enemies and a boring plot about terrible characters.
That doesn't hurt how good is the first game anyway.
Ya know, after playing through it on Steam, and then on Xbox, I think...I think this game is really overrated honestly. Sure, it's fun enough if you want a mindless arcade kinda experience, but it's SUPER shallow, the story makes no sense and it's just...it's not that good, you guys. It really isn't.
noclip does great video game documentaries, so it should come as no surprise how good the hotline miami documentary is.
I love Hotline Miami (the first one), but I hate its plot. During all the game I was intrigued by the cryptic messages of the masked people, the weird occurences and misterious messages. I evenliked the (really flawed) interpretation of it being a criticism about video game violence.
But the 'secret ending' revelation just sucks. It's just a bad action film plot. and the sequel just continues with it and make it even worst, and more boring.
Anyway. I wrote an article in spanish explaining and criticizing the plot of the game. It was supossed to be longer and a two-parter, but my editor asked me to cut it down because capitalism or some other bullshit. I don't know.
Played the first one again, six years after playing it for the first time.
As adictive as ever.
Haven't tried the second one yet. Heard is not as good.
