Length of SDIF?

I was reading this post over here, https://www.curiousconstructs.com/games/sdif/campaign/

...and I saw that the first version was stated to have 19 - 30 missions, but all the way down to 2009 Q3, it was cut down to 8 missions. For those who haven't seen this yet, this is a really good idea to see what was to come in the original game's campaign.

Though I would like the bigger question to be addressed, for the new SDIF, how long will be the game be? Will the game be longer or around 19 - 30 missions like originally planned, as it was stated that the cutdowns were due to technical reasons/limitations?

Thanks for asking this, and the short answer is that it's difficult to say for sure right now.

The longer answer is that we are focused more on playing time than hitting a specific number of missions. I shared here that we’re also experimenting with difficulty and other factors that determine how long these missions last. At the end of the day, we have way more stories that we want to include than we will realistically be able to include. As a result, there are tons of internal discussions moving on this topic.

Maybe a second game should be done to get more
