Thats cool bro. Dragon Age Origins scores should be around those numbers as well.

Better than Fallout 3 is aiming pretty high. I think it'll settle between oblivion and fallout but i don't see it being better ;\

IMO oblivion is better than fallout. But that is just me

Sell a man a fish you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish you just ruined a perfect business opportunity.

We didn't emerge out of the stone age because we ran out of stones. Its time to be proactive not reactive.

If this is better than Fallout 3 then I have to get this game.

Too bad its not coming out in EU until who knows when.

You'll see when you play for yourself. I actually love Mass Effect but it's too short.

Mass Effect is fourty hours long  if you do all side quests along with the main mission. The next one will be longer.

Stuff like this is what bothers me about WRPGs. You beat Mass Effect in less than 10 hours. Less than 7 if you rush. The things are the side are just gravy.

I'm at 62 hours in Persona 3 and I still have at least 15 more hours of stuff to do.

Edited for clarity.

Bull like this is why WRPGs bother. You beat Mass Effect in less than 10 hours. Less than 7 if you rush. The things are the side are just gravy.

I think it's a positive that wrpgs don't force feed a huge time investment on you like jrpgs do. What's the point of a really long main quest if it's boring, tedious and repetitive? I don't know how anyone can get excited about a game where 90% of the battles in a 60+ hour game are boring as hell. If jrpgs cut out all the filler and allowed for more non-linearity, they would be so much better. Back in the old days pre-Playstation, jrpgs were definitely shorter and more non-linear. Beyond a certain point, jrpgs feel like a CHORE to solder through. Once a game starts becoming a chore rather than fun, the whole point is lost. Maybe the diehard jrpg players who aren't sick of this genre yet are wired differently personality-wise but I just don't get the appeal of most jrpgs anymore. For every jrpg I wasted my time on, I could have invested that time on 3 quality games of another genre that never get old. Quality > Quantity.

I'm using an extreme example in the SMT series which has sooooo much to do and the games are very long.

I will say that each and every hour I've played of Persona 3 has been of the upmost quality. But stilll, being able to beat a RPG in less than 10 hours in beyond ridiculous. I think a 30-40 hours length is the sweet spot.
