How long is Gothic 2???
   

All:

Without going through all the different character classes, how long would you say Gothic 2 is (and that's beating every single junior guild quest and every single quest for the final chosen class + sidequests)?

This is in terms of game hours and assuming no replays for getting killed.

50 - 70 hours if you look under every rock, I think. Some quests are guild specific, though. NPC behaviour is also slightly different, so the replay value is higher than it seems at first glance.

Yea, that's far fetched. I would say at least 40 hours if you were rushing through it.

The first time through (as a palladin), exploring every inch and trying to find every quest took me a little over 70 hours.

The first time I played through the game (as a mage) it took me about 70 hours, and I thought I hit everything. I've spent just as much time as a dragon hunter, and I'm still finding things that I have missed before.

It took me about 50 hours as DH, and I took some time on me, but I didn't cleanse the forests and such. I think you can rush it in less than 30 hours.

If you absolutely rush it, you'll finish it in under 20 hours.

I know for a fact i could finish it easily in 10 hours U dont actually have to listen to the dialog when uve finished the game 4 times or didnt you know you can skip dialog? I can kill an orc at level 6 due to the fact im good with one handed weapons, so coaxing strong nmes one at a time will allow me to lvl rather fast in the early levels, meaning i dont have to wonder around finding poxy 60xp creatures when i can get 250 orcs, lus their gold, health potions, then just completing the important, gold rich, xp rich missions, making sure i do everything i can when im in one area so i dont have to go back, its easily done if u dont mess about

and for anyone who it takes 40 hours + to finish the game, looking at every single bit of the game, you need to press caps lock so your char runs instead of walks...

The second time I played as paladin I finished the game in 6h 10min, and it's very possible to do it even quicker.

@GothicDrak: Cool down. Or I have a bucket of ice cold water with your name on it.
