The game is not long if you play by the rules. It gets longer when people introduce house rules.

A game of Monopoly should not take more than an hour to play.

However, Monopoly's game mechanics are outdated and thus one should be playing better games.

Even an hour's a big ask for a lot of people, especially with the elimination factor where the first person out is left sitting on their hands until everyone else is finished.

Monopoly Deal hands typically take 15 min to complete; it's a lot easier to talk people into playing 3-4 hands of Deal rather than one game of traditional Monopoly, because that way everyone has a much greater chance to get a win under their belt.
