Well think of it this way. How long did it take me to beat SSX Tricky? Probably about 2-3 hours. But I only did Mac. Now if EA was marketing that, they would go a lot further. All gold medals for every character and all trick books complete. Furthermore, they would base it on the assumption that you never played SSX, and wasn't able to walk through the game, like i did.
EA could easily claim 60+ hours for SSX Tricky. But it really wouldn't take that long. I mean, do you think beating ED as beating it once? Or beating it, following the entire story, with each character? SK is going to assume you take the time to read every note, to explore every room, and to beat it with all the characters.
Denis Dyack said something special will come to the players who beat it with all the characters, so I will. But 60 hours? Ya, right. I don't spend 60 hours on a game, EVER. You know how long that is? I spent 200 on PSO, but that was just building my character, not beating the game. I spend lots of times of sports games, but not to beat it.
Expect ED to take a few hours with each character. I wouldn't expect it to be too much longer than a typical run through RE. Hell, you're an RE addict like me. What game seemed easier, RE or RE3? RE3 I would hope. My point is, once you play through the game once, it doesn't matter how many changes you add, it becomes easier. Once you play through ED, go ahead and change things up a bit, but the game will still go faster once you're used to the game, the puzzles, and all that stuff.
