I'd like to be able to continue stalking the Zone after completing the campaign.
Is it impossible to enable respawning enemies so we can continue to enagage in combat and explore all the possible party configurations?

I have no desire to play through on Ironman mode, but would like to continue with the core gameplay just for fun. Please make this possible :)

So far we have nothing on this front, all we can hope for it a patch or DLC. You could try Speedrunning it and master it or just rerun it with self imposed challenges and whatnot.

It would seem like they could turn off XP and loot drops (or maybe just scrap, because otherwise it'd be a slow march to death with no medkits when you run out of scrap to buy them), and respawn just the non-plot enemies.

How long is the game? I mean if you just follow the story and when you try to find everything.

Thats great idea. Original Mutant Book RPG has detailed system how randomly populate/generate zone. Sad that nothing from this system found its way into game. Random enemies with random loot chests will be great. Lets hope for DLC.

15 hours give or take

I'd say 20+ hours if you try collecting everything. I'm well beyond this point and still not through (the exploring type, you know).

Merry Christmas and greetings from Germany,

I'd estimate around 12 hours. Probably closer to 15 if you scum save.

I just finished it, steam shows 30 hours, I did spend a lot of time minimized and reading reddit (NOT the games fault, I just get distracted) my save file said 12:30 last time I checked, which was about 30 mins give or take towards the end.

I also idled a bit without pausing a couple times.

I collected everything except 1 note and 1 artifact. Cleared all zones.

I played on hardest if I recall, but not ironman...or iron mutant.

It's a very linear title, something that doesn't usually appeal to me but this was very well done. I think it is worth it and has quality hours not filled with fluff and time wasters. Though, I do wish there was a run button.

I'm through now, on normal difficulty. Explored every corner, found every artifact and note -> about 24 hours playtime. If you don't read anything and fast-forward every fight, 15 hours might by right.

Best regards,
Raff

15h on very hard. Iron man may take longer, not sure.
Without the constant crashing it would have taken about 10.

We are totally missing out by not having a skirmish mode post credits. The battles are perfectly suited for short 30 minute gaming sessions, but we can't because once the credits roll, it's lights out...

I really hope they can patch-in respawning enemies soon.

The game is really good, the gameplay and atmosphere is top notch, the music is spot on. For 3$ per hour it is still well spent money.

The game is pretty nice but i do feel that it's missing the long term play style... once done.. you have nothing more to do.. no replayability.... that is a pity... :S

10 Hours on Hard- Iron Mutant. Was not worth the price at all.

Developers don't seem to care enough to comment either. I'm kind of shocked this made it through Alpha, Beta and QA without somebody bringing this up. Such a simple and obvious post game decision on such a short game.
