1) They put all the good shit at the 4+ hour mark. If a game doesn't grip me in the first 10 minutes, I rarely bother with it. I'd have to check how long I spent with New Vegas, but it was certainly less than four hours.

2) The direction I took was a bit different than how other people went. I found myself in a bit of a murder mystery involving that giant-ass dinosaur. Video games do not do mysteries well, due to the difference between player and player character knowledge. So I reacted like how the crowd reacted when Louis CK once introduced Jerry Seinfeld as the best comedian in the world. I folded my arms (metaphorically; still on trackball) and said, 'Really, New Vegas? You've solved mysteries in video games?' They hadn't.

This is what I bitched about initially. I didn't really get impressed until I visited New Vegas proper, which can take up to 15-20 hours. Also it's pretty easy to solve the dinosaur mystery. Technically you can bring whomever you want out there to get their brains blown out, it makes no difference.
