How long is the game?

[Mancharia]

How many acts are included? Is this the complete product or is there still something i should wait for if i want to play it in one bit?

I finished pretty much everything in act 1 with 30-40hrs. Im pretty happy with the length of it so far

It's the complete game. There is 4 areas to explore with somehow similar size some being more wild and adventure oriented some others a bit more heavy on dialogs and puzzles. If you go quickly you can skip a lot of things and finish the game much quicklier than most. If you don't you can spend 80 hours in average on a first playthrough. Count from 60 to 100 depending on your playstyle basically.

This is the complete product, play times will vary based on how hard you game. 20+ hours can be expected from most people from what I've seen.

If you can remember all the story bits and don't want to dive into the deffinitions and lore... you'll not be adding in extra time.
If you comb over areas for hidden treasures with a fine tooth comb and work with the NPCs to maximize your economy... you will add a great deal of time.
If you aren't using a wiki and want to try out different item combinations to find what helps you most... you'll be adding to your play time.
If you do the side quests and go out of your way for even more side quests... even more play time.

This game seems at least as full as DoS 1, that game I dropped 40 hours (in a single game) and never fully beat it. This game I keep restarting because I'm trying to find some folks I like to do a multiplayer playthrough.

You can also get more out of the game if you know folks whom you'd like to use this as a game core so you can do Dungeon Master / GM game play.

there's lots of small quests and areas to explore, witch makes the game even longer. and if you're into the story, then you want to play every character. so the actual amount of time you will spend in this game, depends on your preferences. all that not considering online play.

I would say avarage 60+ hours if you skip a few side quests etc. and knows how to do puzzles by googling it.

It depends on your style, absolutely. DOS1 took me 200-300 hrs, and I didnt even finish it. So this one is really bigger, you may haste it in 60 hrs, but if you enjoy everything it provides, it may take you several hundred hours to play through that masterpeace :)



Have fun with it!

I just finished it. 68 hours, with decent side quest completion (not totally completionist but I did a lot of things).

I'd also say 60-100 hours on your first playthrough.

You can easily spend 100+ hours plus in this by exploring everything, talking to everyone etc.

~150hrs with all sidequests, not rushing, reading half of the story
