My first playthrough (100%) was 120~ hours. Subsequent playthroughs (not 100%) were 30~ hours.
Once you realize that 95% of side dungeons are literally just the same filler content with useless summons and weapons, and that you really only need to do, like, 6 to get useful loot for your build, the game gets a lot shorter lol
Which is great tbh, I do the 6 side content dungeons to get my shit, farm the bird to get levels, and then roam aroundbdoing filler content to test my setup. Or be summoned by friends and skip all that.
Most side content dungeons and caves are really similar but distinct enough to be enough to do while waiting for a friend to upgrade their weapons, or to test out mettle against a single enemy (gaols).
It's a game with a lot of "content" but a very simple main path. I've done all possible paths with several characters, most of those in ng+2 and one in ng+4 I think. I asked a friend for help to get the end boss weapon to farm runes more efficiently with a new character to preapre for the dlc. The new weapons have me very hyped.
Oh yeah, for sure. I like it too.
I always find it funny when people react to Myazaki saying the game is supposed to be around 30 hours by going "UUUUHHHH??? My playthrough was like a billion hours????"
Like, yeah, if you do everything it'll take a while, but it's clearly not made with that in mind. It's really easy to just not do the whole thing and still have a decent length playthrough.
