As long as it's 40+ (and I'm the sidequests competionist type), I'm good.
Anything less would be meh.
The number of endings doesn't really interest me, it's the quality I'm after. If we'll see completely different outcomes for MC as in TW3 and not red-green-blue ME3, it's great.

If Greedfall is anything like Technomancer, 45 hours is a lot. Their games are quite linear, so the hours spent are more similar to older BioWare games (Jade Empire, KotOR and Mass Effect) than open world games.
Technomancer was definitely not 45 hours, or anywhere near it. Probably 20.

Yep, my rule of thumb is 1 hour for 1 €. So this one's a bit too short for 50 €.
It was 37 hours for me.

You all must have much more time on your hands than me, 40 hours sounds about perfect. A 40 hour game usually takes me 60-80 hours anyway.
I usually don’t finish the 100+ hour games anyways. As I feel I experience almost everything the game has to offer in the first 30-40 hours then spend the rest of the time repeating these things until I get to the end.

How long was games like Skyrim and Witcher 3? I know I played them a lot longer just from exploring.

I love 40 hour games. They are the right amount of time. Less than 30 hours is too short and over 60 is too much if the game is not AWESOME. Only Baldur's Gate, The Witcher 3 and other games got me hooked for over 80 hours.
I just picked up my first spiders game, bound by flame. It grew on me the more I played it. It was linear, but I liked it. Took me about 30 hours. Will probably pick up technomancer and GreedFall eventually. I wish Spider’s games would release in gog.

Don't forget about Mars: War Logs. It's easily worth the price.

Forty hours works for me, I know I'll likely push the envelope a bit longer, myself.

Totally agree - very under-rated crpg. Although short, but very focused, replayable with interesting and memorable protagonist, companions and world.

I enjoyed Mars: War Logs more than I did Technomancer. Both are worth playing, but the first really kept me hooked.

I get your point of view but like Morrandir, I usually expect 1 hour for $1-$1.5 AUD. Greedfall cost $70 AUD, so 30-45 hours is tad bit short for my liking.

Obviously I am strange, because the "short" length is super okay for me. Could be even shorter. Quality > quantity anytime.
