Borderlands 2 - 58 Hour Campaign
 

It looks like Borderlands 2 will feature a meaty campaign, with an interview at Gamerzines revealing people making the game guide clocked it at 58 hours for one character:
More information.

had tons of fun with the first one, i hope they do add a little risk and change things up a bit than doing the conservative diablo 3 route.

If it's as repetitive as the first game, 58 hours is about 38 hours too long.

A 58-hour co-op campaign sounds pretty darned exciting to me. When the first one ended, my cohort and I just looked at each other and said "dammit! I want more!"

As long as they can maintain constant and interesting character development and loot progression, that sounds great.

It´s time reported by guide guys. By "some" guide guys even!
The same guys reported 2W2 to be a 130 hours long game.
Obviously, these guys are just hilariously slow.
Expect up to 25 hours, crapload of filler included :).

If it's too much like the first one, I agree, it might get old fast.

But if it's different enough (and I know they have to keep the same "Borderlands" feel) I won't mind repetition. It didn't bother me too much in the first one since combat was SUCH a blast.

i agree completely with this. make exploration more fun and the game less of a grind than a diablo game and more time is welcome. even though borderlands was "open world" to me there was less exploration than in a game like "Metro 2033" which is quite linear.

besides we already had the Big Empty (though not really) with new vegas, we don't need another one;)

I agree that Borderlands 1 was long enough, and I rarely say that about any game I finish. That said, maybe 2 will be a huge improvement over 1. There is precedence, BG2>BG1, ME2>ME1, Assassin's Creed 2 >> AC1, and others.
