If you plan to explore all the Narration/Levels, around 20 hours.

Damn, that's long. Also, can you post a pic of the graphics settings this game has? There are quite the amount of threads of people complaining about the performance of the game.
I can confirm that there's plenty of longevity to the game. Almost 3 hours in and I've completed only two playthroughs, which have all been focused around 1/4 main paths.

There are 27 stories (1 "playthrough" is 1 story) with 4 truthes of which 1 might be revealed depending on which story you ended up with. The first story inlcuding the tutorial took 89 mintues for me. Your progression continues from story to story. The levels you play on depends on the choices made, so you will not experience the whole game on the first playthrough, far from it.

What if I'm in for a single walkthrough?

This isn't a spoiler because the trailer mentions it, but you don't exactly "beat" the game on your first run. You'll die from every playthrough as you try to figure out how to beat the game with Reynold surviving in the end.

I don't know how long it takes to finish the game with that outcome, but I imagine with there being four truths to uncover, you'll at least have to play the game four times before the final outcome can be achieved. Each playthrough has been around 45 to 75 mins given how much you'll get side-tracked for treasure.

does that mean I have to go mainly through that same locations over and over and fight the same enemies?
Same enemies with very few additions, yes. Same locals, no.

You can go to one out of three places at the start.

im 4 hours in and just discovered all the truths and now proceeding on the "victory" path.

i would say if u manage discover all the truths u could beat the game in 4-8hours.

finding the truths was easier than i thought sadly. but i do plan on trying get all the storys.

so the ~20 hours for 100% is sounding bout right.

but fastest playthrough? probably 3-6hours depending on the route u take for the true ending (which i havent seen yet).

Unlocked the 4 truths and got the real ending in... roughly 4 hours. Though I tend to be fast when completing games in average. I'm not sure if I lucked out on the truths or what though.

If I wanted to finish all the extra paths on the other hand... I can see that taking a while.

Took me 5 hours to discover all the truths and beat the victory path of the game.

If I had a complaint it would be that once you have the four truths the game seems to handhold you to victory rather than letting you figure it out with just the four truths as clues (which is more what I was thinking).

But a solid 5 hours for me and there were some extra paths where I just "had" to know what would happen if I did stuff which added some extra time and was fun.
