estimated length?

[FluxZ]

how long do you expect the gameplay to be? in comparison to ffvii remake?

[Ephemerant]

Casually doing a bit of everything will get you to around 30ish hours, and 70ish hours for 100%.

Maybe I'm a little bit late to the party, but I've just read Polygon's review/impressions and they said that it's around 12 hours long. They probably mean the main storyline but still it seems rather short, especially compared to any other JRPG on the market.

Polygon lies through their ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. 12 hours? You would literally skip 95% of the game doing it in 12 hours and skip all cutscenes(there are like 20 hours of cutscenes minimum from what i remember). Are those reviewers using cheats to put that time there?
has society come to this where we accept cheats as proper completed times?

I will add playing it on hard mode after unlocking it from first clear was a part of my playtime. Clearing it on easy is not finishing the game. Things are more challenging for sure in hard mode and encounters play out differently.

I didn't play the original Crisis Core so I don't really know how long it was. I've just checked howlongtobeat site and it shows over 18 hours for just the main story and around 30 hours for 'main + extra'.
I have no idea how long this remake will be as quite often remakes are shorter than the original games (just for example: Resident Evil 3). Crisis Core seems to be much more action oriented that other FF games so I just assumed that 12 hours seems believable (it is still a little bit longer than, let's say DMC series which is also mainly action oriented).
All in all, the length of this game would be the prime factor for me to consider buying it. If I knew for 100% that this game would take me over 30 hours without replaying any part of it, I would've already preordered it.

I imagine about the same length as the OG https://howlongtobeat.com/game/2034

Story/content-wise, Crisis Core Reunion is unchanged from the original. The combat has been tweaked, it's not -that- different from the original but definitely has improved quality of life and a better control scheme to suit modern systems.

It is completely rebuilt in a new engine with new models, textures, environments, lighting etc but underneath the skeleton is the same. The animations, rigging, etc are identical to the original PSP version.

I would expect most players to get 20-30 hours out of it at a minimum, considerably more (at least double that) if you want to take on the hardest boss (Minerva) and complete all 300 missions. The achievements/trophies also incentivize players to spend a little more time with the various mini-games and puzzles.

Dunno, but as long as it can keep me entertained for 40-60 hours (maybe longer if I want all achievments) im good.

In the PSP I took around 25-30 to finish, but I also tried to do lots of side-quests.

I have played countless times the game but all my runs go for 100% so it always take 100h, including playing the game in Normal and Hard Mode with New Game Plus. Last time I played I manage to collect 999.999.999 Gil without cheats, keeping the run (with all items and materia) at 100% in 117h (give or take). But again, this might change in the Reunion since the gameplay have changed so maybe now battles vs Bosses could be more harder than the original, which is kinda exiting <3

Good to know I will be getting my money's worth.

22 hours the campaign. 30 - 80 if you keep tackling the side quests.

and skill will affect this hour count.
