Felt short to me. Maybe I'm just accustomed to the Zelda formula, but I pretty much knew right where I was supposed to go next the whole time. There didn't seem to be a lot of reasons to goof off.

TP was a bit short to me, maybe because by how easy it was. I'm not saying that the game was terrible, I just wish there was more of a challenge.

The only thing long in the game were the sidequsts. Like...

The 24 Golden Bugs quest, it was long, you needed full acces of some areas of Hyrule to get them all.

The Super Armor quest, you needed to pay money to rebuild the bridge and to make the Malo Mart at Hyrule Town be more cheeper.

I personally think that Twilight Princess is a pretty long game. If you compare the completion time with OoT, you will find that you will always finish OoT first.

There are just so many side quests in Twilight Princess and the storyline is long, but impressive.

If games were infinite they'd take infinitely long to make, so we'd never get them.

Anyway, as it took me over 60 hours I'm saying long. But then I did get stuck in some damned silly places.

If you're not a kid with nothing else to do but play, I'd call TP quite a lengthy game. I'd like to see a Wii sequel be about double the time, though.

12:36... That's pretty fast. I'm guessing that doesn't involve all the side missions and items?

You got it. Only the story. I wanted to break the record. 6:12 hours...
But then i saw the newer record: done in 5 hours 45' 12"
Youtube link: Record time done in 5 hours 45' 12"

Well if you compare TP's length to WW's length, it seems pretty long. WW was a great game, but depressingly short.

About as long as Ocarina of Time, as I completed it in roughly the same amount of time, and the same as it took me for Wind Waker.

All of the more recent Zelda have been roughly on par with each other, in terms of comparative length. I didn't really find anything out of the ordinary this time around, either.

I would agree, it took me about the same amount of time to beat OoT as TP. MM took me way longer...probably because I kept having to start at day one
