Most Bioware games up til Mass Effect 3. I think, in general, the games that you "don't want to end" are the games that never feel long enough.

What long games didn't feel that long?

To the guys mentioning God of War, Red Dead Redemption, how did you guys kept track of the time?
Man, I want the opposite! I had 125 hours and it felt like 200, lol. I had to take a week break at a certain point. FYI I adored the game, and the series as a whole.
For me it's definitely God of War. It felt like it just flew by even though I put in over 50 hours.
Must have been Sekiro. I finished it at around 50 hours and thought I was like 25 at max.
Also the vice versa happened with Darksiders 3. I finished it at 17 hours but felt like 30

Resident Evil VII and Alien Isolation are two recent games that people like to cite as being "too long". But I love them both and wouldn't trim a single thing from either. I'm actually replaying RE7 for the first time since release and when I got to the ship that everyone else wants to cut, I was like "wait I'm already here?"
Each time I re-play the original Witcher, the time just flies, even though I know a playthrough takes anywhere from 60-80 hours (depending how much I fast-forward the clock).
There's something about that story that just makes it so easy to lose myself in the world.

Witcher 3 for me as well. Forgot how many hours I had but after beating both expansions, I looked at the clock at thought to myself, "no way". Everything about the pacing, story, characters, and exploration kept me going from the Red Baron onwards.
