Thanks for the interest, folks.

Some thoughts reflecting AoD's non-combat design

Well... we live in the era of 15-20-hour long games. I beat KOTOR in 18 hours without trying to rush through the game. Heavenly Sword took no more than 6-8 hours. I haven't played Mass Effect, but most people agree that it's an "under 20 hours" game. So I doubt that 30-40 hours could be described as short. Especially considering the features.

Which is why we've shown and explained how everything works. We haven't made a single claim that wasn't backed up with screenshots, videos, or detailed explanations.

Anyway, GameBanshee has expressed an interest in an article dedicated to different ways to solve quests, so it's a-coming.
