According to GS review, episode two checks in at about 4-5 hours, which, the reviewers says, is "longer" than Ep. 1. I don't know, sounds about the same to me. But even if it is, Ep.1 was 19.95 when it came out, vs. 29.95 they're asking on Steam for episode 2. Holy crap. I understand what you're doing, but here's the thing, I don't want a bundle. I don't want to be forced to buy a bundle, even if it's nice and orange. I like shopping on Steam, purchasing one game at a time, at my own speed. This is just blatant price inflation and is actually kind of upsetting. Ah, whatever, I'll wait for it to drop, I guess.

So is playthrough time the only measurement of value? It can't be

Halo 3 was 7ish hours and it was 60$

Would you have prefered it if they'd just copypasted levels like in Halo 1 to make the game longer?

Yeah that was a very bad comparison...you always pay more for things seperatly than when bought in a "kit"...didnt you know that? Its worth every penny of 45 dollars to have arguably the best bundle of games EVER. If you want to complain about 29.99 for episode two then you can go buy the 60 dollar version for x360 because they dont even have a choice....your choice becomes clear after looking at it like that!

Its definitely longer than EP 1, I'd say about 30%-50% depending on how you play the game.

Also I really didn't like the first 2 chapters of EP1, the OP gravity gun isn't very challening, although the puzzles were fun they were fairly short as well.

Episode 2 has 6 Chapter (7th is just story) and all of them are spectacular and fairly long. So comparatively I'd say EP2 is worth $30 if Ep1 is $20.

But seriously why is everyone complaining about the price, you should have preordered it for $45. 3 unique and fun games for $15 each even if you own the other 2. STOP COMPLAINING
