Dennis Dyack reckons that a first playthrough of Too Human will take around 15 hours.

Silicon Knights boss Dennis Dyack has said that his current opus, Too Human for the Xbox 360, will take players between 15 and 80 hours to complete. That's a pretty wide ballpark admittedly, so Dyack was sure to break it down.

"First play through is probably around 15 hours, I guess, it depends. To get to level 50, it's anywhere from 50 to 80 hours," said the designer in an interview with Kikizo.

"And to get all the epic loot - I don't even know if it's possible to get everything in the game, it's probably not - not for a single person."

Too Human is the latest epic RPG for the Xbox 360 and draws extensively on aspects of Norse mythology in a futuristic setting. The game, which has been in development for years and which has enjoyed a controversial history, is due for release at the end of this month.

Despite the fact that the game isn't even out of the door yet though Dyack has confirmed that work on the next two games is actually quite far along.

"The story was done a long time ago," he said. "The theme of the first game is discovery, the theme of the second game is revenge, and the third game, enlightenment."

"And the trilogy and the whole idea of focusing on the Norse mythology and effects on technology we think is really going to turn people's heads."
