Obviously, most people buy shooters for the multiplayer. But is the dramatic Battlefield 4 campaign a roller-coaster ride you shouldn't miss?

Possibly. According to a Reddit user , the campaign in the freshly released Battlefield title is only about 4 hours in length. However, he did say it was an improvement over the story mode in Battlefield 3 , so that's something. Better is always good.

Here's his brief analysis of the camapign:

"It had more cinematic moments and the options to choose how you get past a section kept it interesting. Also the character development reminded me of the bad company games (although there wasn’t as many funny lines of dialogue). The environments were various enough to keep it fresh and interesting and the points system made it worth taking the time to take out enemies. Overall worth the time, just short."

For those who don't care about multiplayer, this may or may not be annoying. Four hours is definitely on the short side – I'd be hoping for six or seven – but again, these games are made for multiplayer; the story mode is absolutely secondary these days and in some cases, if you ask fans, they'd probably call it superfluous. That's sad to me, but that's the way it is.
