Lexhorn Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Any clue on how many hours this chapter need to be finished ? Can we expect something like 10 hours of play to finish this new content ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erevan_Kindelar Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Given the length of chapters I-IX, 10 hours for Chapter X would probably be... excessive 10 minutes probably too short too, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abigfishy Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Both ten hours and ten minutes seem wildly unrealistic. Based on the first nice chapters I would suggest about an hour of story based game play then maybe another hour to go and get the new companion.

GythralSWTOR Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Hours of play is unlikely 1-9 were about 7hrs in total, about half of which was playing, so an hour is my guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codedrago Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Probably around 30 - 35 minuets worth of cutscenes and about 25 - 30 minuets of gamplay. Though I think 10 hours is wildly unrealistic for anything that is planning to come out monthly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holocron Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Likely 30-45 minutes, or if we are really lucky, maybe an hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigvaldson Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 30-40ish minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnAskham Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Hours??? Hahahahahaha good one. Maybe an hour if you go slow and explore all the alternative conversation options, otherwise I'm expecting it to take maybe 30-45 minutes if you play at a decent pace and watch the cut scenes. It is possible a Bioware apologist could demonstrate it takes more than an hour if Bioware adds some time sync grinding in old / recycled areas to obtain more companions - but to me that isn't fresh / new content, and at this point I certainly don't need another never use companion added to the list of 20+ I already have on my crew.

tattoohero Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 They said the chapters would be about an hour long over the summer. Some of the ones are shorter than an hour and some have been right around an hour. Plus how long it takes to get Blizz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tachenko_Yuri Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Remove the S, from Hour, in your Title... and u haz an optimistic answer on the subject *_* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transcendent Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 20-60 minutes of corridors, and an extended amount of grind to get the next companion or so (just to tide you over for the month(+/- however much) until the next chapter.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetPloughed Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Chapter X likely a hour. Blizz and HK both about 30 minutes or so each, unless they have an additional grind on top of the quest(like Pierce or the crocodile) HK though, I'm getting ready to laugh at all the rage when his recruitment mission is an exact copy of the HK 51 find pieces grind. The tears will provide me and my village salt for years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eanelinea Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I'd say the cutscenes themselves might take about 30-35 min. Then the actual gameplay of kill x, y, z will be maybe another 20-30 min. Then we have Blizz's alert (and whoever they add in there all ninja stealth-like, if they do). Maybe another 20-60 min. So, overall for EVERYTHING coming in chapter X, a max of two hours...maybe.

PlacidDragon Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Any clue on how many hours this chapter need to be finished ? Can we expect something like 10 hours of play to finish this new content ? Going by the experience from chapters 1 - 9, i'd estimate 15 - 30 minutes actual playtime tops. The actual length of it depends entirely on how much they decide to bloat the chapter with, in terms of cut scenes, forced encounters, and so on.

CaptRogue Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 They said the chapters would be about an hour long over the summer. And you still believe that? After what they've been changing on what's been stated/posted by them! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekwalizer Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Any clue on how many hours this chapter need to be finished ? Can we expect something like 10 hours of play to finish this new content ? Have you played Ch I-IX? Not space barring, my *first* time through I think it took 5 hours or so to get through Chapter IX. So at best you are looking at 30-45 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aries_cz Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 *"They"* also said it would take 200 hours to get to level 50. Pretty sure it was close to it, assuming you listened to the story, and were not rabidly spacebaring through it. Now, I do not recall how long exactly it was back in the launch days, but I think I had some 7 days /played when hitting level 50 for the first time, and I was spacebaring a bit (especially the alien gibberish, once I read the subtitle) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthDymond Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Yeah, probably around an hour for the Chapter itself, around another 30 min for the Blizz Alliance Alert, and 5-10 minutes for the HK re-acquisition mission, since they specifically labeled that as a 'short' mission when announcing it.

Defecter Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I wonder what the reaction would be if it turns out to be something around 3-4 hours worth of time. One would think it would get very cold in hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One would think it would get very cold in hell. It is probably not going to, we have been given statements by developers that each chapter relased after 9 is going to be about hour in length. However, if it actually was long as you say, I would be glad if the devil's butt froze to his throne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annabethchase Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 And you still believe that? After what they've been changing on what's been stated/posted by them! lol I found KotFE to take an average of 1 hour for the first play through. That's what they mean when they give time estimates. They aren't talking about spacebaring and especially not talking about once you already know every mob placement along the path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
