How long to beat Act 1 (or all the content already released?)
I wonder if play already the game and I want to know how many hours, more or less, will be long.

I've only put in 40 hours over various character playthroughs, and still haven't seen everything there is to offer in the game.

20-30 hours if you do most things/everything is a good average guess for most players.

Wow just 1 hour? Thats so low for a RPG game...

It's impossible to do it in 1 hour unless you know exactly what to do.

I'm assuming that's what the term "speed run" was for.

That's for speedrunners, aka when you know exactly what you need to do and how to exploit the game. A regular playthrough will take way longer than an hour to beat.

Oh I see. Thats amazing, tho I cant understand the joy of speed running the game in 1hr.

There is alot of content and it takes a while but, your gonna reach current max level long before you finish the content and the current level now is just 4,

Mmm I understand the reason behind speed running. I think I wont buy the game for now and wait for more content.

Act 1 is not complete and most people don´t experience everything in their first run (you miss or skip stuff) I like to read the lore, watch and smell the enviroment.. I think it took 20-30 hours first time. Obviously, once you know mechanics and if you don´t smell the enviroment, then you can do it a lot faster (but why would you)

But this is EA.. if you want a complete experience or just wanna have fun.. I would not recommend it.. this is for people, that want to help find bugs, make suggestions to changes/new stuff and so forth.. while still getting a whiff of what the story might take you or how the game feels..

Basically.. if you want "playtime" without crashes, bugs, etc... wait for full release.
