I have 43 hours and i still haven't left the island (Island makes about 25% of the game)

I'm 25 hours in and I should be close enough to getting off the first island, however my save file shows 15 hours. So it's really 15 hours of gameplay for the first part of the game(The first island). Combat is an issue, I suggest you spend all your money on gear when you can to make it tollerable. I must've spent around eight hours restarting fights over and over...

If I had to guess I would say 40ish hours if you just worry about the main story and maybe 80 or more if you did all the side stuff. From what I saw on the videos and such of this game its hard to see and do everything on a first play thur and its encourges you to do multiple ones.

In the first game you could easily rack up a 100 hrs if you tried to do everything in the game.

Capslock always reminds me of deaf people screaming...

Do you plan to read diaglogue?
How fast do you read?
How well do you comprehend what you read?
Are you trying to sprint to the end or enjoy sidequests?
Playing alone?

All of these and more create a big swing on playable hours, not including replay.
Considering there are no hardcode players screaming about how short the game in in the first week of release, you can be fairly confident of the engagement to perceived value ratio being good to justify the purchase,

Depends but i got off the island in about 30 hrs and i know i missed a few things.
Next game i'll cover that lol! Also once off you got things on the ship to take care of
before you even see the mainland.....and a very nice trader{don't kill him he's got some good stuff if you got the coin}

Way over 40 hours.

alrighty super ,everyones comments convinced me thak you all

[Euphytose]

It's definitely shorter than the first one, which could take you well over 100 hours for one playthrough in EE. This one is prlbably 60 or so, maybe more if you take your time and read everything.

Correction:
thread title should read "How many _HUNDREDS_ of hours of gameplay..."

[AzgarthX]

The game might take ya 200 hours to complete at a minimum

[CheckYourFax]

If you do everything, you can probably hit 200 if you read(or let the voiceovers do the work) every dialogue before you reach the end.

Im planning to play through it 3 times. so i'll prob make 500hours by the time im bored with it.

Took me 35ish hours to first leave Reaper's Eye, they said that's about 25% of the game, so over 100 hours if you do most of the side quests.
