Starkweather Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I never rush so should take me a while. Look forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormy2k Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 The way the game can be approached any way you want means that of course you could finish it very quickly just running and gunning and doing the main objectives, but then that really missing most of the game because of your play style. My first playthrough of Borderlands 2 was extensive, exploring and it took me some time to do. On the TVH mode I blasted through the main story in under 6 hours with four of us. Had I done that from the get go, just the main objectivces, I too could say Borderlands 2 was a short game! If people say the game took X hours to finish, they should specify their play style. Im a hardcore stealth nut so I'll be going slow through the game making OCD saves after every few kills incase things go pear shaped! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesuit007 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 I fully expect to finish it in less than 5 hours... on a clean-up playthrough. It looks like a nice-guy stealth run will be the bulk of my experience, and then I'll run through and kill a bunch of people for those cheevos. Hopefully it's 2 playthroughs, but even if it's 3 no worries. A good game is a good game. I was actually somewhat disappointed that Deus Ex was 1k on 1 playthrough. With so many good games out... it's hard to set aside play time for games I've already maxed (I still do at times, but I have a serious backlog I'm still slogging through).

KFZ Scrubs Posted October 8, 2012 Author Share Posted October 8, 2012 I'm hoping to do 3. Fun one where I just enjoy the story and atmosphere, stealth were I try not to kill anybody and clean up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suki Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 well skyrim took me 70 hrs to 1000 point it however it could be finished in 2 hours and 16 minutes so i dont think this is a point to consider when buying a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You completed Skyrim in 70 hours? Wow you rushed it in my opinion. I've put over 300 hours into it so far. I love just exploring and messing around in that game. I can spend hours just walking around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gravelandx88 Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 So what someone beats it in or around 4-6 hours. Thats there preference of playing. Not mine. I like to take my time, enjoy the physics of this game. Also explore every nook and cranny. So im not bothered by this leaked review. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dz06lt Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 speed run or not games shouldnt be able to be finished in 3-4hrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yac Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 speed run or not games shouldnt be able to be finished in 3-4hrs clearly you've missed quite a bit of the valid points people have made in this thread, mainly many of the biggest (and frankly most time consuming) games in recent years can be beaten in mere hours yet to fully explore can take hundreds of hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Yac Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 point is the "main" story isn't the focus of every game, if i can spend hundreds of hours exploring the world on top of the 4 hours to beat the main game then it isn't a 4 hour game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbear. Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 My only real complaint so far is that the dialogue is GOD AWFUL at times and the voice acting is even worse at times. As far as the gameplay goes...Fun ass ninja game! I wonder what it is going to be like when a do a kill everything that moves playthrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Yac Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 No the point is you shouldnt be able to complete a main story in 4hrs, not complicated i guess we have differeing views on what makes a gam enjoyable, i'd rather a rich world to explore with lots of side missions then an overly long drawn out "main" story just for the sake of saying it's long enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suki Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 i aslo feel if u want to go for the 1000 then 2 playthrus r needed so being able to get thru the 2nd playthru pretty quick if u wanted to is good. i will spend around 20-30 hours on the first playthru doing everything and getting everything, then i go for the speedrun.
