I got 100+ hours out of ME2, and 300+ hours on DA:O.

Multiple playthrough win.

40hs with nearly 100% percent of sidequests, etc sounds kind of short to me.
I just hope it has good replayability (?) if that word even exists.

This.

A completionist playthrough would hopefully be in the 60 hour range, a straight up normal playthrough missing things here and there at 40 hours would be ideal. ME2 was so pathetically short without DLCs, think my first playthrough with 100% upgrades (so a ****load of time surveying) was like 28 hours. But i will say this, with TW2, Skyrim, and shogun 2, and the possibility of d3 this years means i probably wouldn't spend any appreciable time with one game. Hell, i might even give two words 2 a shot.

That's not really what people are asking, though.

Given that these games tend to have big, epic storylines, is 40 hours long enough to tell one?  Is the rate of progression over that period plausible?  Is there enough time to flesh out the world in sufficient depth?

Time is, as they say, relative. What it takes YOU to play DA2 may be longer than what it takes HIM to play DA2 and shorter than what it takes HER to do. Different people play at different speeds.

No matter the length of the game, SOMEONE will speed rush through it and say that "it only took me X to finish". Baldur's Gate 2 is probably our longest game, but we have someone here who can finish it(with boots of haste, but no other cheats) in under 6 hours. Would that make BG2 a 6 hour game?

In the end, for me anyways, it comes down to "did I get good value for the money I paid". The DA2 team has tried to fill the game with heaps of excellent content. I think that by the time people play DA2 they'll have gotten great value for their money. And, if they choose to replay the game as a different class, as nasty instead of nice, with different NPCs, taking different paths, etc then they will get even greater value.

I agree with this completely.  For example, take the Metal Gear Solid.  The games range anywhere from 10-25 hours in length, yet,  without cheating or using any special items, I can beat them all in under two hours.  Are those games an hour and a half long?  Of course not.  Regardless of length, if it has you coming back for more, then it was well worth the purchase.

Obviously they should have just padded the game time with pointless but cheap filler combat since all that matters is the average hours spent on a playthrough.

im gonna play this like 4-6 times anyway, multiple choices in a 100 hour game with voice acting just wont ever make sense economical. I dont mean just hawkes voice either, i mean all of the npc's

This is exactly what you folks did in DAO, and i hope that DA2 will have plenty of opportunities for replay. I have 22 completed DAO characters and each is different as i could make them but the game made that easy i just hope there is rplayability of DAO in DA2 if so i will be happy.

Yes if it has replay value which I think it does.
