Half-Life 2 Portal only four hours long - briefly

- Post a comment Portal level designer,
Kim Swift, told Eurogamer that her game will last only about four hours in
its final version, but the finished product will include a more complete
tutorial to compensate. Well,
the trailer I
saw looks fun, but only four hours? Oh well :-) So, are you going to put into
the better part of an afternoon into this when you pick up Orange later this
year, or are you going to stick with Half Life 2 and its episodes with a side of
Team Fortress 2?
Currently the game runs about four hours," she told us. However, it seems it may take some getting used to, as one of our reporters was reduced to a gibbering wreck as he attempted to get to grips with it. Still, Swift was apologetic and reassuring about the difficulty curve, saying she'd rushed the tutorial to get us to the action. "In the game we take you very step by step in terms of being able to use your portals," she added.
