Norgoroth Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 if you are playing for the story and watch all the cut-scenes and not only for the trophies then it will take a little bit more than 35 hours plus replaying chapters for missing side-quests and cards but its a fun game and it deserves the time spend for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabs_85 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Took me around 38hrs. When I first started playing missed a few side missions while getting used to how the game played/worked with the times/chapter days etc Take less time when you know what your doing. Good game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobaltTangerine Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 (edited) I believe it took me around 40ish hours, but I did a lot of wandering around my first 5 or so hours. The day/night and rain mechanics regarding side quests are a bit confusing, and you really need guides to figure everything out, but as the mechanics start to make sense and you get the radio, things really speed up. But if you are a speed gamer, skip cut scenes and follow a good guide from the beginning, you can finish in around 30 hours, as it is all about knowing what to do rather than time spent with difficulty.

Riaku Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 It took me 38 hours to unlock the platinum, but I spend quite a bit of time just enyoing the game, talking and exploring. If you play for the platinum alone, I think it should take around the 25-28 hour mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthjoker Posted September 20, 2014 Share Posted September 20, 2014 quick question: How long is this game? I mean just playing it. Not going for the platinum, and maybe a sidequest or 2. How long does it take to beat the game if I just want to see the story? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theophobos Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 quick question: How long is this game? I mean just playing it. Not going for the platinum, and maybe a sidequest or 2. How long does it take to beat the game if I just want to see the story? Can't give you any numbers, as I started with the sidequests as soon as possible. But the sidequests are easy are done relatively fast. Just going for the story I'd say maybe 20ish, if you don't skip dialogues. Took me 49 hours. That's the time you have to invest if you really wanna do everything in the game and doing most sidequests without guide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep I am seeing all cutscenes since it has a very interesting story. So far I am really enjoying the game. I see that its a very long game. But the story is so well done that it makes you want to keep playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theophobos Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 ah thank you! Yep I am seeing all cutscenes since it has a very interesting story. So far I am really enjoying the game. I see that its a very long game. But the story is so well done that it makes you want to keep playing. That's how I accumulated a whopping 49 hours for that game. It really got me addicted, I enjoyed the twists in the plot. It could've been a touch more horror for my taste, it was only subtly frightening. The most frightening parts were the shadows screaming something that sounds like "don't want to die"... that really got under my skin...! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkDante14 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Took me around 48 hours. Mostly because I was doing a lot of side-stuff without a guide first. Got really immersed into the game so wanted to explore as much as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semifreak de Bolacha Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 40 Hours , watched all the cut scenes , without this the game would lose it's charm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winkuru Posted December 3, 2014 Share Posted December 3, 2014 Took me about 28 hours but hour or two could have been shaved off from that if i hadn't left the game on at times to pass the in game time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrUnknown625 Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Took me just under 25 hours. Could have been less all though I wasted a lot of time by getting to a spot for a quest and then not meeting requirements or timing or something and having to go somewhere to sleep until it rains of something like that.

Triace68 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 I played the game casually until the end. I used a guide for the collectibles and some of the side quests. This took me about 40 hours to get the plat. I imagine though if you ran through the game you could do it in 30 hours or less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liverpool12zzz Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Skipped every cinematic after episode 1 , it was so boring . Even with that it took me 30 hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandeProElite Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 I voted 21-25 hours. The games moderately long and the side missions can take a while to do too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoldenDevilGamer Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 Can be done in one playthrough easily. It took me 19-20 hours, but I voted 21-25 because it seemed more right for an average person. The story is 13-16 hours long, 8-12 if you skip cutscenes. There are 27 chapters in the game, but remember, the first episode consists of 7-8 chapters so don't freak out if you're no getting story-based trophies. The last couple of episodes have only 1-3 chapters. The side quests should take 6-10 hours. Most of the time will consist of smoking cigarettes to find the right time and weather. It took me 20 hours, even after spending some time to talk to the people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naps Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I think I nearly reached 40 hours. It was time well spent for me as I really enjoyed this game. One of the best stories ever told in a game. I hope there will be a sequel - but one with better next gen features of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archavia Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Voted 26-35, took me 29. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djitalianice Posted January 23, 2015 Share Posted January 23, 2015 My final time was 36:50, but I could have done things better, like get all the Emily cooking quests out of the way earlier so I didn't need to repeat those chapters. Also should have gotten the radio earlier which would have shaved a bunch of time of traveling. Lastly, I didn't radio the radio let you warp so I spent a bunch of time driving around even after getting the radio which sucked. Especially when my cars would run out of gas and I'd have to walk twenty minutes to find a new car. All in all, if I were smarter about it, I probably could have done it in about 33 or 34 hours.

Terminator Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I don't know exactly how long it took me to this because my completion time is way off for some reason but it shouldn't take you more than 35hrs you do it right and don't get hit by the many gamebreaking bugs this game has.

c1ned1ne Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Took me around 45h. That's without the radio and a lot of afk'ing because I didn't know about smoking to accelarete time Could have shaved a lot off of it if the side quest weren't so particular about weather and time and even then still unreliable.

MistressFortune Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I got the plat yesterday and my final time was just a couple of minutes over 35 hours (voted 26-35), although I probably spent an hour sleeping at Anna's Tree trying to get the right weather for some of the side quests.

stpatty Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I'm sure my play time was above 25 hours when I last checked it before finishing, I don't know if that factors in cutscenes watched but I think, following a walkthrough for the sidequests like I did, sub-35 hours is quite achievable.
