As long as you want it to be....No rush to finish the game....Lots to do harassing the natives 😀

You can do it under 3-4 hours if you use some exploits and with some luck.

That's not the point, it's best to take your time in this game. I have everything to go find timmy but i'm still gonna clear all the caves first. Think i have 40-50 hours played atm.

If this game ever get's to be easily moddable the potential is even more huge.

Actual story content? it's probably around 15 to 30 minutes depending on long you take investigating the end game area. There isn't any story between the plane crash and the end game area. Just hidden documents and objects that give a bit of history behind the island and the people who used to be there, nothing to do with finding your son.

It takes time to gather and prepare what you need to reach the end game area though which stretches the game to maybe 3 hours if you know where the items are.

It would take you much longer if you explore for the items you need and avoid online item guides and maps though. Which is what I would recommend doing if you don't want to spoil the game. It gets a lot less interesting once you know where the items spawn.

Those hidden documents and objects are the story in my opinion. So you would need to explore every cave in the game in the right order somewhat in my opinion. Once you search and explore every cave you then head to the end game cave the correct and legit way heading to the "door".
I would guess from anywhere from 10-15 hours depending on if you just bum rush everything or you take your time and explore in a RL kinda way,

Once you make it to the "door" there is only like an hour or two left of the story.

Depending on the type of player that time can double easily.

That's super subjective honestly. Each little piece of lore loot adds to the depth of the story in it own way. Like how Dark Souls uses equipment descriptions to add lore.

If they give players dev tools on release the possibilities will be limitless

I know right, i seriously hope they are considering this, it would increase the longitevity of their game and the overral succes in the long run.

I can already see the possiblities.... i want to build mutant slave camps. Those who obey get meat, those who don't get the whip.

i re-did the story on a new save just to see how long it would take and i completed it in 3 hours. the point of the game isnt to "complete" the story. The story technically isnt even finished yet.. There are alot of other things to do and alot of mysteries to solve. I have 260+ hours played and im still not bored of it ... explore caves and stuff, theres more things to find then timmy.
