I complete the game with 214:14 and finished to play in January 2007.

I really try to get every weapon and armor of this game, but I give up. It is hard to play with that respawn chests and make monsters leave itens.

But I do all the side quests, hunts, rare monster. This is the game of FF that I spent most times in my life.

Whats yours?

IIRC, i think I spent maybe 255 hours on my "complete" game.

I think it was around 120 hours for my best file, maybe around 150 total before I went off of it and haven't gone back since...

Around 170 for my best one - all the hunts(even the special ones) and sidequests cleared! :D

275 hours including 117 hours of the Negalmuur autolevelling method(3 hours of work put in to that, left it running for 114 hours, 6 people from level 60-61 with Embroiddered Tippets equipped and Negalmuur with the Haste status).

I skipped some less important sidequests at the end of the game so I could beat it in time for FF XII: RW. The sidequests I skipped saved me about 25 hours of time. Also, if I did a standard leveling method the time would be 75 hours less but I would have to put in 100% of the time.

By the way I'm like 17 hours into FF XII: RW it's great! There are some issues with the controls and the battle system but they aren't huge for me. Everything else in the game is perfect or nearly perfect. I'm happy! :)

Somewhere around 120 hours for my first playthrough, but I only did a minority of sidquests and about a third of the total hunts. My current one is just over 110, and I'm doing a few sidequests before taking on the Pharos. So I'd be surprised if it didn't accumulate over 200 hours when I eventually finish everything I want to do on it.

213, I think. I need to clean up a few maps and hunts. It is very doubtful I will do that, though. I just don't feel like going back.

130 hours or so. I just stopped after not being able to beat anymore sidequests or hunts unless I leveled up.

Can't even remember. Not much more than 100 hours, I think. Didn't really get into many of the side quests before I got bored with it. Shame, though, it really is a good game.

On my first play through, it took me 160 hours to get to the end of it. But I didn't do every sidequests. My second play through took me 193 hours, and I completed almost every sidequests. But I didn't get every pieces of equipment.

This game can take easily over 200 hours to beat if you want to get everything without the use of a guide. Otherwise, you can possibly complete it in around 100-120 hours.

No. You still have at least 15-20 hours to go, depending on how long it takes you to complete the next two dungeons.

108 hours. Enough time to beat all the optional bosses, which is all I really care about when it comes to extras. It took me 56 hours or something to beat the story part of the game.

Ok, then I think I can finish the game this week! I have no school on Monday, so I will be gaming a lot...

I've been playing for 46 hrs. I'm only level 30. I just finished the henne mines. It doesn't help that I stop for months at a time lol.

I started the hunts after I had finished the game so most of the early ones went down in 5 seconds.

Man, I'm at 180+ hours and I haven't finished the hunts and none of my characters have hit lvl. 60. I still have those side quests to do and Esper hunting. Zeromus seems to hate me. :<

I know what you mean. All I did was target line the early hunts and they died.

Got the game in October of 2006 (release day--Halloween?) and currently have between 190 & 215 hours right now (I'm unsure because of how many save files I have). And I STILL haven't completed the game yet. I just got Reddas in the party, needing to go to the Henne Mines for the Zodiac Spear & Zodiarc

Be careful of Zodiark -- try instant-death resistant items if you can and watch out for his powerful attack that can instantly kill up to all three of your active characters.

First game: 57 hours (beat the game, by no means complete).
Second game: 8 hours so far, I'm in Bhujerba.

57 hours is a great time for playing through the game without specifically aiming to zip through it as fast as possible.

Whispermyname
02-07-2008, 02:59 PM
Thanks! It's probably partly due to only playing with three characters from about Ogir-Yensa on.

Edit: Oh, I should note, that's my final SAVE time. It took me a few hours from there to beat the game. So maybe 59 or 60 total.

95:22.

That is my time rushing COMPLETELY. I traded the game in prematurely, though, because I was fascinated with the idea of Pokemon Pearl, and needed the money for it.
