Games you thought you were about to beat and then HOLY SHIT THERE'S HOW MUCH MORE!?

Grandia 2 iirc has multiple points where you feel like you are at the end only to go on another 10 hours.

This is another great one. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it. All packed into that tiny cartridge.
I just made a thread about The Phantom Pain
Long ass fucking game

The first one of course is Castlevania castle, but a recent one that i wasnt expecting that people may not know is The Witness. That game never ends. So many goddamn puzzles and secrets. What a bizarre game that was.
Yes, best example on the industry. The only problem I have is that going back to those chapters is harder bc they are mostly just Pit and Palutena.
Yep fully blew my mind as a kid.. probably had something to do with that first part taking ages as a kid.
Super Mario 3D Land and World.
Remember thinking 3D Land was a breeze, and was actually fairly disappointed. Well. There you go. Second half revealed itself

Persona 5. And I just wanted the damn game to end already.
Most recently Red Dead Redemption 2. Fuck that longer-than-necessary epilogue.

Tales of Legendia, famously the company localizing the game in English thought the same. The second half of the game has no voice acting which is incredibly jarring after the first half was full of it.
Hollow Knight. Just when you think you've discovered all the areas you stumble into an entirely new area after 30 hours and tell yourself that you should have paid more for the game.
This is probably the best answer. They even pull fake credits on you.
Kind of like that for FFXIII. I thought was getting to the end when it stopped being a corridor, and then suddenly, "Why is there another 10-20 hours worth of nonsense?!" By the time I finally got to the final boss though, I had to spend another several hours grinding just to be done with it.
First visit to Tower of Salvation in Tales of Symphonia
Easily another 60 hours of gameplay after this point
I thought Dishonored would end after the Daud fight but nope. It went on for a while longer. It was a very pleasant surprise.
I knew to expect post-game content, but I was pleasantly surprised the main game gave me so much more to do!
Xenoblade Chronicles, this game just kept surprising me on second part of the game. Definitely my favorite JRPG :)
I feel like for a kid DQVIII did it very well. I definitely remember grinding a lot and then winning the fight after god knows how many tries and the game just...kept going. I thought I was playing like a weird epilogue or something but then the game like triples in length!
They should have called it
an Interlude, or an Overture to RDR 1
