@CAV It would still be a bit nice though. I liked how they did the Valley of Avalar. There weren't too many enemies and I enjoyed exploring.

I found this really good picture of a level that wasn't in DoTD, but I think should of been.
I can't find it though, it looks like a huge tower with a dragon's head on it and there's water on the top.

Don't forget Ruins of Warfang, and even Burned Lands to some extent.

@ToxicShadow That would get kinda boring.

Besides, I think Valley of Alavar was our exploration fix.

Yea, that's true. It did start getting repetitive. I wish that they would've given us a couple levels just for exploring with no enemies so we could get a break. But it's really no big deal.

I don't find it too short. 10-12 hours is a good time for this sort of game, IMO.
.....Wish they made DLC though....
