How long to beat the game ?

[Nyx Assassin]

The Demo was 4h for me. So i wonder how much of the game i allready saw and how much to come ?
How long do you need in general to beat the game.

It's also going to depend on which difficulty you're playing which isn't a metric you'll likely see published.

It really isn't, unless you're somehow stuck on some boss for 10h, trash mobs on hard die 1 shot the same as on normal or easy, the difficulty part should only change the outcome by a few hours max (and thats only because some ppl will struggle with lvl 60 vs lvl 75 endbosses, which you'll be if you didn't grind on hard)

As i said in my earlier post, the only thing to prolong the game is if u grind mag or exp (which is totally unnecessary) so you artificially boosted your playtime, that's not the standard or average. Anyone playing this normally beats the game between 60 and 70 hours period

Do you understand what ''average'' means? Its not a synonym for ''playing normally''.

Trash mobs on hard do not die in one shot for most the game. Difficult level almost always has significant impact on total clear time.

personally took me about 58 hours to 100% it on hard. didn't feel like i was rushing, but i'm a faster reader than most and i didn't stop and talk to the worldbuilding NPCs much.

I'm on the Brilehaven Infiltration Quest on the Louis ship and have 20 hours into the game. I have the same question as OP.
I hope the game still has some content to get at least 50 hours of playtime. I'm playing it on hard, and loving it so far.

[alex010300]

I think 80 hours if you do all the side quests.

[Erinyes]

70 - 75 for main content, you can't and won't do 100% in one run.
There's new game + with decent enough difficulty in Regicide, makes your 2nd run as imaginative and RPG as you can push.
But i got to say this, in my 2nd new game plus im at the last mission with 30 hrs as i skip every dialogue. The game is talky as ♥♥♥♥, but it's a great game nonetheless

You really don't get people are different. Stop being pushy about it, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

bro thinks he and a few normies are the measure of all things

I bet he hasn't even read the memorandum lol

Yea okay, you reading 10 pages equals 40h more gameplay, pls.
If anything there's an AVERAGE which is clearly 60-70h, you going far above that because you grinded mobs for 30h or read 1 page entry per 30 min is on you and not the norm.

Not sure what you did but my lvl 13 mage was already one shotting the goblins in the merchant dungeon with weakness skills and this doesn't change except against big hp enemies, unless you play without ambush.

I'm 70 Hours in and about 85% done. but that's just me. A friend of mine just beat the game in less than 25 Hours by just rushing trough the main story. so it all depends.

Yeah no, I don't believe you.

that's nonsense.

Thanks for clearing up that actual live stats based upon countless proven data is wrong but what one person says is right.

Can you please tell me which stock options best for this year?

Assuming you max out Bonds, finish every quest and get everyone's secret Archetypes I'd say 100 odd hours.
