I'm not even done beating the game yet. All I did was the Arl, Orzammar, and I think I'm almost done Circle Tower, and didn't do the Urn of Sacred Ashes yet. I have over 50 hours, but I think half of the time was spent in Orzammar. I was like "Wow, Orzammar sure had a lot of content and had a lot of quests for the main story through the Deep Roads."

[Bluefuse]

I also have been developing relationships with all party members, though. A good few hours go towards their conversations and exploring them a bit as well.

[Lacan2]

I don't see how this is possible. I spent 80 hours on my first playthrough, didn't even do 75% of the sidequests. Didn't spend hardly any time reading the codex.

Something isn't right.

[MerinTB]

I play on Normal setting.



I've stuck to the same party (except when the game forces a person into your party) of 3 people the whole game, and I've mostly stuck to only talking to them.



I certainly don't have that 1000 darkspawn kills achievement though.

[Lord_Saulot]

It took me about 85 hours with my first playthrough, warrior, doing sidequests that I came across.

You did most of the sidequests eh? Did you get the 755 sidequest completion achievement?

No time to know the characters...they all have a quest associated with their past which reveals quite a bit about them, i'm willing to bet you didn't do any of them.

Bring up your character and click 'Heroic achievements' and see what percentage of the game you have completed.

I'm fighting the Archdemon now, and I have less than 50% completed.

I've got the 1,000 darkspawn award, did the personal quests for all except Shale (bugged) and Wynne, opened every trap and chest, got the award for exploring every area (not including Warden's Keep), did the Chantry quests (except 1) all the Blackstone quests, 2/3 of the mage collectives quests, and even a few rogue quest from the Gnawed Noble bar. I really can't believe that I missed 50% of the quests - does not compute at all !!!

has anybody gotten near to 100%?? If so, how??

The 50% completed != amount of quests completed in your current playthrough.  I believe it's based on achievements.  Better indicators of how much of the game you've covered would be the "world explored" statistic, and whether or not you got the traveller's and the side quest achievements.

I have in total 152 hours for the first playthrough. That's a lot of exploring, coming back to places to pick up more loot and the such.
But 38 hours? Must have been a runthrough rather than playthrough.

How is that possible? I clocked in ~ 50 hours. Damn.

[jinix the younger]

Good grief you guys are fast! I spent about 10 of my 100hrs/22% of the game time, just murdering my girlfriend's mother. And another 5 hours dealing with spiders! I'll be fighting thru this game for 400 hours at this rate - and that's without any DLC

Is there any chance that there is more content in the PC version? Because a lot of you seem to be playing the PC version. Just I thought...now I wish I had explored more lol

Combat is likely taking more time on the PC version.  On the PC you have the opportunity to be much more deliberate about how you handle combat scenarios than you would on the console.   It's really the only thing I could think that would explain the huge discrepancy--granted looking over your story line you did do a blistering run through the game.  Did you not work on your companion's sidequests?  What's your hurry, the game's not going anywhere...

To answer your other question: I'm still on my first playthrough, playing on pc/ normal, in the middle of Landsmeet, and clocking in 125 hrs.

Catofnine, I've got the Traveler award, and also I just found the "Easily Sidetracked" award which means I did >75% of side quests.



I suspect that you're right when you say it's based on achievements, as I missed out on any evil achievements, but 50% still seems low.

I played on my laptop while my buddy was playing on ps3 and I have to agree with catofnine. His battles seemed to fly by compared to mine, and I have to say they appeared to be significantly easier than my PC battles(both playing on normal).

[Wolfva2]

Also bear in mind that pause time is counted towards game played time. As I found out when it said I had over 120 hours of playtime and I knew I hadn't played more then 20 or so. But I DID pause the game instead of logging out before going to bed, work, etc.

[deathwing200]

How can people take 100+ hours with this game? Seriously? It took me exactly 56 hours to complete the game on hard difficulty the first time. I didn't skip dialogues (although I didn't reload to see different outcomes) and I did most of the quests (level 20 party with no elfroot hand ins). Do you guys just leave the game idling for hours at a time?

[Oliver Sudden]

I think the really super players can go through this game faster ... I'm pausing all the time in battles, not using any tactics at all, and the big battles are taking me an hour or so to finish, pretty much all the time I can spend in one day's play!

I checked out your profile:

Most powerful foe slain: Broodmother
You missed a dragon or two.

You did not achieve the blight-queller achievement (1000 darkspawn slain) which means you avoided a crapload of combat, I had that achievement at level 12 or so.

looks like you avoided half the game.

Hint: not true. In the profile it only says the most powerful slain mob receiving the final blow by the char - not the group. Also, the profile updates ... well, very irregular at best (I know that because mine is missing several levels on all characters)

[Auraad]

It took me almost 80 hours and tried to do all side quests (still missed som, though). Of course, I did not skip any dialogue on my first run through. On my second and third I skip those I already know and remember - so I'll be considerably faster.

Think of it this way: Whenever you choose an option in conversation, you're opting out of many other possible paths. Well, alot of the time anyhow. Those missed voice recordings/animations whathaveyou and sometimes quests is going to be a huge part of the game. You've also got 5 more origins and to top it off conversations throughout the game are different based on that backround, race and gender. So my guess would be that's why most people only see around 50% complete after one playthrough.

Gliese,
your point about the different origin is likely valid, but if you pay close attention to dialog, you'll notice that a lot of answers will end of at the same point. Many of the others characters answers are valid for 2 or even 3 of your dialog choices, so the dialog "trees" are not really as large as people might expect.

For the idea of different origins counting, does anyone know if you start a 2nd playthrough as a different character type, is the percentage complete cumalative ? If not, then this "percentage of game completed" stat doesn't make any sense - UNLESS - Bioware is planning on the sequel counting to get you to 100%.

Has anybody gone over 50%?? How high??

Alot of the time the dialogues you get are not all that different but if you account for something like gender or race, that's going to change almost every conversation sligthly, you'll be refered to as a man or woman or as elf or human etc. Even if the outcome of many choices of dialogue is the same, the phrasing of the answers you get can vary alot.

For example you have an objection to something and get to choose 4 different questions to voice it. The NPC you speak to will shut down your objection but has 2-3 different points to make in order to do so based on what question you asked, furthermore the exact reply is sligthly different for all 4 questions although there's only 2-3 different points the NPC can raise (sorry for my poor english if it didn't make sense, I'm not a native speaker).

It took me 68 hours the first time. I played a male human warrior on normal, did some pausing but not every two seconds, read all the codex entries I found, talked extensively with Alistair, Wynne and Dog and received the Easily Sidetracked achievement. I didn't get to 1,000 darkspawn until my second time around though.

I recommend trying a totally different character next. Different sex, race, origin, class, party members, everything. There is enough replay value for at least two trips through the game in my opinion. I'm on my second and planning a third personally. That's a hell of a lot of excellent gaming for the money.

[Ickabod27]

I've done a bunch of side quests, but nothing I actively go searching for.  I'd say I'm 75% through my first play through at 60 hours.

Sadly I still haven't beaten it yet, but I'm getting there.

[Gliese]

I'm actively planning and limiting myself for each playthrough so that I will have something new for each origin. For example making Alistair a tank with almost no active talents available (ie boring), making Leliana only get half of the archery talents and putting lots of stuff into rogue talents that I already did on my first playthrough, limiting what spells my mages uses and so on.

With some planning of this kind you can make sure that your main character is always going to have a quite novel approach to combat from what you've done earlier. Also party composition and RP can vary greatly of course, but that's easier to achieve without getting repetetive.
