As graphics have gotten better, games have gotten shorter. Hmm, wonder where all the development cost and time has gone.

I think it has more to do with a focus on multiplayer, but this game has no multiplayer so I don't know.

This isn't the full fledged MGS, that's the Phantom Pain. Ground Zeroes is a prologue for it(the reason it is $30 instead of $60).

It's also because games are moving towards more open worlds, which leads to more possibilities to achieve a goal, but less goals to achieve.

That's what I'm inclined to believe also. That, plus developers have been stating that most players don't finish games because they are too long. So they've been shortening them for awhile now to meet the demands of players that may only have an few hours every week to play. Which has meant making multiplayer more enticing to that audience.
