The game is not short at all i must say and i have no idea how most of the people finished DA2 so quickly
maybe most of them skipped or missed side/companions quests etc. 
or they play game all day and night without breaks. Everytime i choose different companions i get new quests 
Got dozens of quests from Boards, Chests, Barrels, People and more. Though the game and places gets repitative at times but the plots are differents 
whenever im about to finish the secondary quests my list just pop out with new ones lol.

Hmmm who said it was short? It is however shorter than Origins.
Playtimes.....
Dragon Age:Origins = 177 hours
Dragon Age Awakening = 47 hours
Dragon Age 2 = 76 hours
See this link for my playtimes - Discuss Dragon Age 2
And YES I played everything side/companion quest possible in all games, including the "Exiled Prince" DLC in Dragon Age 2

I seriously thought I would never finish DA:O, there was always something to so. I did beat DA2 faster then I thought I would, and I got to level 22. It got a bit stale, since it all took place in kirkwall and sundermount.

Yeah it seemed like DA:O took me ages to finish. Dragon Age 2 was like I'm here now.... the end. In a funny kind of way I expected it to be shorter, but was very happy it wasn't. Yeah it's not as long as DA:O but at least it wasn't too short.
BTW I earned the "Easily Sidetracked" achievement in Dragon Age: Origins

nice!!! i too earned that coveted achievement. normally im not an achievement hunter, but i made an exception for DA:O. DA2 felt short, having said that, i really do hope they go all out with extra content.

boogieboy, I did every sidequest I could find on my first 2 playthroughs and found it quite short.

I actually don't hunt for achievements; I just play the game and what achievements I get I get. I just remember that one popping up when I did one too many side quests. It made me laugh
As for DLC I’m kind of iffy there. I didn’t get any of the paid DLC for Dragon Age: Origins, and the only reason I got the DLC for DA2 was because it was a day 1 release with the game. However I feel like it should have been included in the game, not a separate DLC.
Personally I feel like game companies are intentionally releasing shorter games with the intent of milking us dry with "DLC" content - stuff that should have been in the game anyway. I can not understand how you could have a day 1 DLC ready to sell with a day 1 game release unless you are trying to milk your customers for every penny you can get.
With that said, I have purchased nearly all the DLC (excluding the appearance packs) for Mass Effect 2, but this is stuff that's come out months later, plus I really do love Mass Effect. BTW there is a new DLC for Mass Effect 2 scheduled for release on 29 Mar 2011
Anyway even though I like the DA series it depends on when and what it is that may sway me to purchase more DA2 DLC (maybe).

I completely agree with you on the milking thing. But what can we do? That's a serious question, I've had it with EA. Too a lesser extent, I've also had it with bioware, messing up DA2. where's the love?
