Quoted from Eskaybee:

Another comment about the 3 major mb scenes; it would be cool if attaining them were sort of random on which gets lit first and so forth. So it's different everytime you play the game.
And I know Keith loves programming marathon journeys into his games, but I'm hoping attaining mini wizard modes can be done relatively in a short period of time and the final wizard mode attainable in <30 min game. Hopefully they code this game to not have marathon games like LOTR and be more on par with WOZ or other modern pins.

I remember a few years back Gary Stern talking about how operators hate long games - 30 min game times means the machine is eating coins.

What is the average duration of a game?
And does it make sense to create a game that takes 30+ mins to unlock everything if people only play for 5 minutes?
