BioShock 2 to last over 10 hours

bioshock26

BioShock 2 will last at least ten hours, the latest episode of Qore’s apparently confirmed.

“At the start of the game, you wake up a mystery. And for at least the first ten hours or so, you remain a mystery,” said narrator and Qore host Veronica Belmont.

Awesome.

The line is mentioned in the video below. Watch from 40 seconds onwards.

The rapturous sequel releases on February 9 for PC, PS3 and 360.

I think that is just to start with.

I’ve sent an email off to 2k asking for the full playtime.

Edit: BUUURN! :D

maybe because they’ve made it more actiony, you blaze through it faster

perhaps its the stories pacing, that they push you through the game faster, i read the other day that there is no back tracking aloud, when you leave an area you can’t return.

i think 10 hours is enough, as long as there is no filler…

how much time of that is standing around while a little sister sucks some adam

Yeah 10 hours as a mystery and more as a non-mystery. ;)
Tbh I thought the first could’ve done with a few hours chopped off it. If you are stuck for good ideas to develop a great 10 hour game to a 15 hour one, don’t.

10-15 hours is perfect for a game like this imo. also i still hope that the multiplayer will rock in this one…

I never pay any attention to how long developers say their game lasts to be honest… I remember Shadow Complex was said to last about 10 hours the developers. I started on the hardest setting, found the vast majority of hidden items and still finished in about 6 hours..

I’d like to think this was over 10 hours for crying out loud :|
