If you can matchmake in games like DOTA or full on raids in most major MMOs, there is no excuse you can't in Destiny. It was one of the many reasons I quit that game shortly after I hit 20.
For me, length only trends to have an effect on quality when the game is too lengthy, so I lose interest before the end. I'd honestly prefer more games to be shorter.
Mostly though, length affects value. A quality 5-hour game is something I'll just wait to drop in price before playing.
I just picked it up after watching @patrickklepek's video of it on his Youtube channel. It's cheap and has a cool style plus nice, relaxing exploration. I'm starting it now!
Edit: Just played this up through the 4th checkpoint and got the first 40 crystals. The physic-y, procedurally generated animation is wonderful and the music and world are pretty stunning overall. Once you get some progress it's really fun to just fly down through all the islands and plants you've explored.
Mario Party Party is easily my favorite feature on the site right now. The focus on just playing the game is what leads to the best moments. Dan being eternally optimistic and the others wavering back and forth between frustrated and delirious is the best. Also, all the MP games are huge trolls which is wonderful to watch. I wouldn't want them to skip any of them.
