You do realize there's only 20 levels in total right?

Just continue doing the act 1 questlines. By the time your done with part 1 you should be level 4. The games level cap is only 20.

When low leveling from level 2 takes that long. How long will it be at level 10 then? 10 hours`?

In Pathfinder, the second you get to level 20 is the second you start being powerful enough to become a god.

Hell yeah getting there is going to take a while.

Also, this is an RPG, getting halfway done with the game at 10 hours is usually a rarity.

After you pass lvl 2, it seems to go much faster.

we have a level cap because it's based on the pathfinder system which caps at 20, there's no epic levels for Pathfinder so that's all they go up to.

You could look at setting before start new game, you use xp for active member, but downside, if you get new party, they miss out xp, while your level is way ahead, but that is fastest xp you can get in legal sence.

The game seems to be fine to me. Leveling takes a lot of time because each level represents a huge step forward in strength. More feats, spells, spell uses, hit points and proficiency. I'm also pretty sure they want to avoid the PoE experience, where you reach ludicrous levels halfway through the game and most of the content becomes trivial and boring.

There's also a lot of stuff you can do even with lower level abilities and spells if you took the right feats and leveling up every third fight would cause you to barely use lower level abilities because you just blitz past the part of the game where they still do something.
This is especially case in DnD type games because they rarely have many beginner spells that are still relevant in battles once you reach higher levels, so it seems to me that they'd want you to stick around on lower levels for a while to actually use your shiny new spells.

Well, on other hand we do need fast xp to catch up and better chance to win battle with high level enemies in encourater random, sometime it's seem far out. 2 level vs 6 level, without reload and saving spam.

Leveling always took a lot of time in D&D. Getting to level 10 even was a major investment in time. Level 10 is near a top level Wizard who knows all the spells. level 20 is line max for what the skill lists go to.

This is basically a digital table top game, the campaign only goes to level 20, a high level in both D&D and Pathfinder. So leveling will be relativley slow, compared to other games.
