It will be 150 hours or so and half of that time will be dedicated to collecting resources like in DAI.

>there is an immense focus on colonization and setting up bases/colonies
>you need to collect materials to build up bases
>half your in game time is spent spamming the MEA search button on controller or keyboard like in DAI

It will be a huge chore just like in DAI but probably worse since there's more of a focus to it.

@topic:

 

I hope NOT - I hated that SONAR ("Damned Bioware, what am I - a freaking SUBMARINE? If so: Where's my torpedos, cruise-missiles and even ICBMs?"?) and while I don't wish people harm I hope the programmer was really frustrated etc. when he programmed that (that sonar sounds like a revenge on the players kind of thing!)...I am really thinking about NOT pre-ordering this time (but resisting the urge is hard...it's like having blue-balls in a way and knowing you can't help it at them moment!)

It will be tedious, trust me.

DAI was only a 20 hour game to me I just skipped a lot of it but I did finish the main story. I do hate those grinding activities but they have said that there is flexibility in the way you play. I loved the ME3 MPer, even though that was repetitive and many people found it grindy, because I enjoyed the gameplay behind it. Get the basic gameplay good and the game will at least be good even if it does come with a lot of baggage I don't enjoy.

Tons of replay value.

 

That's what I'm looking fforward to

Hm... and here I thought "more worse" is a grammatical error.

 

Oh, well.

 

 

Moving on:

Dutch does have a point, to a degree.  Current info data points to the necessity of building up your colonies = plural, which requires finding resources, which requires the need for search / scout parties and finding tech blueprints to upgrade your tech / weapons and gear to fight your opponents. Bio itself admits to a focus on exploration and that once on a planet, they want you "to stick around".

 

So, 100s of planets + "sticking around" for .5 hrs/planet = 50 hrs of sticking around.... minimum, doing what, pray tell? searching? exploring? That is on top of mission times, of course.

 

I think this "sticking around" is an excuse to give EA a metric that says ME:A players spend N billions seconds connect time, which they will flaunt to the investment world.  EA won't provide a number that is anywhere near the actual main story arc playing time.
