you can speedrun most games in a few hours ^^; , fallout 3 is probably a good example, stick to the main mission and you are through in 1 hour.

WoL had an normal length, the biggest issue probably is because it wasn't linear, which isn't to common in rts games. And people got confused + many hated on the storyline expecting an epic film or something, while there was no real positive feedback. So i guess they missjudged it, or they didn't expected so many smurfs in sc2, and thought there were alot of people that didn't played the single player .
Anyway to late now, on a positive site, the map makers will be done fast and probably put into custom maps or mini campaigns and stuff ^^.

I don't think the non linear was the problem.
DoW 2 is knowed for having one of the best campaign for a moder rts, and it wasn'"t linear at all.

In SC1 and BW we had essentially three missions:

- Build a base and killl all enemy bases
- Lead a small group through a maze, the hero must survive
- Build defenses and survive for X minutes
