Is Doom III short?

[Prince of China]

I heard it was short, but just wondering, how many days will it take me to beat Doom III if I play on Hard(I heard that's the really fun way to play) and spend around 5-7 hours a day.

5-7 hours a day prolly won't last you but 3 or 4 days...


I got it last Tuesday, but I still haven't finished it.

 

[Prince of China]

Is it :
a) You lack skills.
b) You have skills but don't want to play it.

I only play it at night... and only 1-3 levels when I do.

 

[snak3y3z1001]

If yur goin to play that much time per day its gonna fell short. Im taking my time.

 

[Prince of China]

Well, compared to Return to Castle Wolfenstein, is it longer or shorter or about the same.

 

[Roland Deschain]

They knew it was going to have low replay value, so they should have made it longer, but if you take your time, it can last you 25 Hours.

 

[Yuri]

Just get it, ya bastard!

Why? Because you're quoted in my sig.

 

[No Limit]

5-7 hours a day??? Get a job dude

 

[ShadowFox]

It is shorter than Far Cry.. but not by much. Much more linear though.

And agreed with the one above. 5-7 hours? Christ!

 

[Neutrino]

I think I'm going to get about 30 hours out of it. (Only two thirds of the way through right now.) But then again, I like to play slowly.

It took me longer to play doom 3 than Far Cry.

Far Cry was 13.5 hours on easy.
Doom 3 was 15 hours on easy.

If you have no idea where to go, you could end up over 20 hours. No problem And I can tell you. Even if the game is pretty linear, it's still very easy to get lost / get stuck because of a puzzle-moment or something.

 

[Shuzer]

About 30 hours here, too. I have 3 levels left, and I've had it since the 3rd. Yes, I'm slow, but that's okay
I just haven't had time to play it, and I only like to play it at night. I figure I'll beat it tonight

 

[brightgreen]

I've played a little (about two hours) each day since the official release. That's about 20 hours. Good length for what it is, I'd say.

I'm still not done; in fact, I just made it to hell!

 

[Sai]

got it on the third..beat it on the fifth

i was a huge fan of the early doom games so i just kind of ripped myself into the game

is it worth comparing to doom 1or2?
no way in hell

is it a bad game
absolutely not

 

[Shuzer]

no way in hell

hahahahahaha!

I think doom3 is a nice ammount of gametime...ive had it since about the 5th and im only level 9 been playing it for ~15 hours but i havent been playing it lately and now the scare factor has come back. If you play it straight for hours the scare factor goes after a while because you get used to it but if you dont play it for a while then play it the scare factor comes back kind off, it seems less predictable.

People comparing to farcry's lenth better not be slagging it off farcry was a very long game compared to what we've had before it. The game i played before FC was DX:IW and omg ...a days work.... taking your time.
