I was wondering if anyone felt the same? Fun while it lasted, but way to short and the end just sucked. I really thought it was more open then it was a swell.

Yeah....no. The game was plenty long, especially if you went for all of the side quests (if your complaining about length, I assume you hit them all ;) ), the story was excellent, and the combat was engaging and addicting. The only thing that left me dissapointed was the ending, and I guess that really depends on how you play the game. I made some bad choices that bit me on the ass in the end. :P

Sorry to hear that... I just started the game (about 7 hours in) but so far it is a blast to play. Not sure your play style, but I have been trying to talk to everyone and explore everything. Seems like its going to take me awhile to beat this game. Does the pace change later in the game? I only get about 2 hours a day to play games which sucks because I have a huge backlog of games waiting.

If you continue doing everything that you can, you'll garner 60+ hours from the game, easily.

Did you do all side quests, play all 6 origins, find all team mates, and see more than one ending?

I'm only very early in the game, but I'm already 10 hours in an just getting into the game now. My friend has the game for 360 and has played a good 60 -70 hours his first play through. I don't think that is short at all.

I don't how this game could be considered short, in any way, shape or form.

Sounds good! Looking forward for every single hour. Thanks!

I don't how this game could be considered short, in any way, shape or form. Silent-Hal

From what my friend has been telling me about his experiences on the console version, I can imagine how. The game's a cake walk on normal difficulty compared to the PC version. I'm sure some people can just plow right through the main story pretty quick.

Oh well. I definitely don't think it's short. I'm 47 hours in on my PC CE and still have RedCliffe to do.

I've also heard you have a lvl 20 cap AND you can't grind. LAME.

haha yeah, I have like 45 hours in so far and it says I only explored 58% of the world so far... I only found 3 extra characters. Well 4 but I didn't want one of them. I dunno it is taking me a long time. I don't know how this game is short.

So how does a persons ill decision to plow through the main quest make the game short? Do you consider Oblivion short? Because I'm fairly certain the main story quest can be completed in a handful of hours.

Technically no level cap. However, once you get up to level 20, the amount of experience you need to level up is so high that it becomes pretty tough (though not impossible) to keep levelling up beyond that.

I didn't think it was short it took me 50 hours to beat the first time and I didn't do many side quests. I also really liked my ending.
