I really like the first game but was way too short.
Please tell me the story this time offers at least 30hrs not the abysmal 10 or 15 hours of the first.

It was confirmed that the story would be about 12 hours long. I'd find the article on Joystiq but I don't wanna sift through all those pages.

I read that too...pretty lame but it's really not that bad. It seems like there's gonna be more "sandbox" type gameplay than the first, and I'll probably be playing co-op just as much as single player. After the first game, I don't think we should expect to really have a substantial story, just develop and build on what the first game did, which seems to be what this game is doing.

12 hours on a speed run, so ignoreing all side quests,mini games and so on and im guessing if you know exactly where to go and what to do. You will complete the game broke and looking like shit compared to someone who takes their time.

Games offering little play time is one of the things I hate most. It's made worse when the price of the game is so high. However, if it's something I love and I know I'm going to want to play it over and over (a la Shenmue), I can live with it. And if Fable 2 is anything like the first one, I'll be playing through it more than enough to make it worth it, and I'll be enjoying every minute of it. :P

Surely not 12 hours? Isn't this supposed to be an RPG?

The game is going to fucking suck if that's the case.

^ First was 10 about and still rocked.
You can play it longer than that as a sandbox game but yeah I want the story mode to be much longer than 12 hours.

Yeah, sorry I forgot to mention that. It's just the story that takes 12 hours. Which is still pretty damn short, but still. Molyneux said something about the storyline being really amazing, but we all know how he is with hyping shit up. D:

He's actually been a lot better with this one, really not mentioning stuff until it's guaranteed to be in the final version of the game. So if the only thing he's hyping up is the story, we should be pretty good.

haha, I'm actually making it a point to follow this game as little as possible, and only watch videos and gameplay demonstrations (hey, if they're showing it on video then it's likely to be in the game). And yea, it seems Molyneux isn't going too overboard with the hype on this game after what happened in the first one.

I think some of his quotes from the video docs on xbox live sum him up though. "We could've given you control of the dog. Think about it...we give you NO CONTROL OF THE DOG!!!". *The video then cuts to some gameplay and interviews from other members of team, and 5 minutes later cuts back to Molyneux* "no...control.....OF THE DOG!!!!@~!!! THINK ABOUT IT!!@!!!" And in the combat video he's like "now people say...'you can't do one button combat!'...but look!!!"
