How many hours have you put in already?

[Kouki]

I've got 17 hours and counting. How many hours does the game usually take? I've spent hours just leveling up (now at Level 16!) :D

AAANNDDD I love the game, best RPG I have ever played!

[Glitch]

Only 28, Sadly..Didn't get to play at all yesterday, and I've been getting pushed towards CS: Source as well. XD

I will get farther though!

[StillBORED]

Only about 24 hours. I'm getting a bit lazy because I'm trying to level up. I'm only 23.

[SB]

Guys, level 50.
Girls, level 43.

In theory, I should already be strong enough to complete the game, but I want to spend more time leveling up, getting other espers, completing the top half of the Licence Board (almost done).

Current time:86:34.

Well, i have been 25 hours in the game, i read in the EGM in the review of the game that you can finish the game in 45 hours or extend to 100 or more ´cause the minigame, hunt clan, hidden-espers, etc.

[Omisace]

My characters average around level 25 with 44 hours in gameplay. Of course, I like to mess around a lot ^^;;

[Iselyn]

Originally, I had about 15 hours in, but now that I've started my score...I'm at around 7 hours. My characters are currently lurking around the Lhusu Mines trying to level up before I attempt the Leviathan again.

[Princess_Ashelia]

Levels at 30 and logged 50 hours... license board on top nearly filled and all quickenings obtained.

character stats are;

Guys: 63
Ladies: 45

[endy]

About 49 hours. My characters are all about level 43-44. Beat the game, don't really feel like messing with sidequests for awhile.

[Vilagen]

A bit over 70 now. Still haven't finished, for some reason I got interested again in doing Hunts so I have been doing those. Gilgamesh was a bit challenging but fun none the less. The Masamune though doesn't seem as great as I thought it would be. In fact the Genji Armor is not as great as I thought it would be, but oh well.

[Graham]

SaberBlade - how did you get the game so early when your from the uk and it was only released over here 3 weeks ago???

I've nothced up 86 hours, Ashe is around level 75 i think, the rest in their 60's (except Vaan who's 14).

I've been quite lucky (or sad, depends how you look at it), had to take 5 days off work by April or else i'd loose them so coincided them with the release and sat on my ass in front of TV for a week hammering the hell out of it.

[GoDHaVoc]

SaberBlade - (except Vaan who's 14).

O my good lord

Fran - 67
Balthier - 67

Been doing a lot of sidequests as of late and attempting to get some of the rare equipments.

[Strider]

I finished the game last night at 103 and some change. Levels were all around the mid 50's. I like to level but I feel, for me, if I go at the final bosses at too high of a level it kind of takes away from whats supposed to be a tough, make you sweat battle.

[Scott]

18 hours.
Im just at the Garif.

[KOS-MOS Prototype]

I just breached 130 hours. I'm on the Pharos Third Ascent. All characters but one are level 70. Nearly all hunts are done. I wanted to go back and get some things I missed. I discovered it's already too late so I'll just have to save them for my next play through.

I'm not done yet but so far the game's getting better with each hour.

[Exodus]

After continuing from my last save after beating the game, I'm at 101 hours now. I'm aiming to collect espers, complete the license board, and complete all the hunts.

[Egnar]

I'm at a measily 40 or so hours. My 3 main characters are at level 45 (the other 3 are weeping at around 15, heh). 3 espers and about 23 hunts completed. I'm at the part where you have to fight Tyrant. I got him to around 500 hp last night at 3am and think one more try at it should be good.

[Spike Marshall]

80 Hours In:

Just gone though the Great Crystal for the First Time

Vann (58) - Masamune, Magepower Shisak, Maximillian

Working Towards:

Getting a Gnoma Halycon to get the Ultima Blade
Finding the Excalibur in the Great Crystal
Leveling up all characters to 61
Getting the fragments to obtain Chaos
Obtaining Ultima

[_dogma_]

About 7 hours lol. I don'y get much time to play. I've only just got out of the prison and now back in Rabenastre. Feel so far behind! :(

[Exodus]

102 hours. I was about to go through the Lhusu Mines and battle Gilgamesh, but decided against it.

[Mercury Rainboweye]

Well, i got 66 hours, 54 min and 16 sec and i just made a 48 hour break from it to replenish my str and finish it. I aint leaving that controler down until i beat this game until i get all espers, finish up the board, get the best weapons and kill all the marks. I'll do that and i will die after it. One more think, the name zeromus which ff was it and who was he?

[Reach]

66 hours. Level 87, Vaan + Balthier + Fran, with 30+ marks finished + Hell wyrm raped. Trying to finish up some of the easier hunts I didn't do so I can unlock Yiazmat and Omega.

I lost to behemoth king when he had like 2 hp left, because he got lucky and stopped my whole party and then when I ran and rebuffed my tanks he had healed himself fully. I've got a ribbon now though, so he's going down. Everyone wears the Magepower Shisak and Maximillian. Going to try to get my guys into the 90's and possible get enough espers to get deeper into Henle Mines before fighting Yiaz or Omega.

Weapons - Ultima Blade, Ragnarok and Masamune. Ultima and Rag hit for 9999 every time, so it's all good. Masamune does like half that, but hits for 3-4x combos a lot of the time.

Can damage go over 9999 though? I noticed Vaan's hp is like 10800 right now, so I'm wondering if it just displays 9999 damage but is actually doing over 10000.



Edit: Level 92, got the excalibur and killed ultima. 73 hours. Unlocked yiazmat with 8 hunts unfinished o_O and uh, took off his first 8 bars. Wasn't that hard, but uh he gets progressively harder apparently.

[Exodus]

102:44:18 hours.

I'm in the Great Crystal trying to find Excalibur and Ultima. Already beat the game, just collecting everything I didn't before.

[FFFreak]

You all kind of kick my arse iv only done 30 hours or so...iv just got the sword of kings...the supposed nethicite destroyer...

[Mercury Rainboweye]

Well, that was it for me, about 140 h. Finished the game got most of the marks that appeared, got my players at 65 lvl. I am disappointed with the final boss though, that vayne was like the worst final boss ever. Gilgamesh could have beaten him.

[matty-al]

i have put in well over 100 hours nearly 200 all characters are at max level with max stats too :D

[Exodus]

105 hours. Saved and quit after the first fight with Gilgamesh. I'll probably do the second fight tomorrow, shouldn't be too difficult, my attack for my three main characters is decent enough. First fight was a breeze anyway, though that damned dog got in the way a bit.

[zantetsuken]

I've put in about 70 hours. Nearly finished, but I haven't got any of the optional stuff. Will start again once I'm done to pick up these.
Levels:
Vaan- Lv. 60
Balthier- Lv. 47
Fran- Lv. 40
Basch- LV. 42
Ashe- Lv. 53
Penelo- Lv. 47

[kurosaki jhon]

156 hours, i think i have everthing except for the zodiac spear and some amulets (ribbon jaja the sucker doesnt appear jaja). Great game but the espers in the end sucks!!!

[Exodus]

Still at 105 hours. Decided to head into the Great Crystal, but after almost getting pwnt, I decided to leave and go train at the Cerrobi Steppe. Still trying to complete hunts and obtain all the espers.

[Mercury Rainboweye]

I reached 155 hours and it is the second time, i had 14o in the first i posted up there and restarted the whole game to take genji. Now i hear i cannot get zodiac spear because i opened a few chests.... :T_T: cruel fates why do you insist on tormenting me?

[Naruto]

I only got about 25 hours I just bought the game so.

[RussieLloyd]

I got 277 hourse clocked up! (Okay, i've left the game on a couple of times)

[Cordon Bleu]

About 7 hours lol. I don'y get much time to play. I've only just got out of the prison and now back in Rabenastre. Feel so far behind! :(
Same I only bought it a few days ago!! I'm at LVL 7 and played for 5hrs.

I just can't find the time to really get to play it properly:(

[Sensi Hawso]

about 30hours, though i haven't went back to it in a few months.
the side quests are fun enough but the story snd characters are presented way too blandly to keep me occupied.
i think i had just finished the events in Fran's hometown.

[divinity]

I am now about 65 hours in and I think I'm nearing the end of the storyline. However, I'm only an average level of 37 and I still haven't done half of the hunts yet.

[Exodus]

108 hours in. Going back to Great Crystal again. If it isn't as much of an arse as before, I'll get everything in it.

[Tasha]

I do believe I beat the game in something like 73 hours. I'm thinking about plaing again and doing everything, or just going back to my game save and doing things.

[spellman]

250 hours, because i am trying to find and discover things.I have to find 1 esper, 1 or 2 marks,equipment, other items,etc.Now i am at level 83/84.

[ffking?]

136hrs, what a waste![just kiddin]

lvl.88 and still the pharos subterra is still tricky

[Graye]

75 hours and party levels 78 78 78 78 69 68
you get really good training in the nabreaus deadlands where all the skeletons pop up :D

[Fran Fetish]

I've invested hundreds of hours in this game. It never gets old to me, because I'm a rare inventory junkie! Lol!:D

[Baks]

Currently at 180 hours - I gunning for a 100% game and reckon I'm around 70-75% through to acheiving this so far.

[Exodus]

110 hours. I'm working for a 100% completion still (all summons, etc.).

But as big of an arse as it is, I doubt it'll happen. Too much work.

[RussieLloyd]

Done 250 hours, mainly due to leaving the game on over night a couple of times. Only need 2 weapons, one Summon and to beat the hardest boss on the game.

[auron86]

18 hours so far, just beaten the Wyvern Lord Mark, and about to enter The Tomb of Raithwall.

Vaan is at lv22, the rest are at lv18/19.

[fffreak31]

I'm in 120 hours so far I've done a couple of things
and now I just want to kill the last two marks.

[ofakar]

192 hours.
Lvl 99 on Vaan, Fran and Basch. Lvl 35 on the rest.
I've got Yiazmat and Omega left. One Esper and Zodiac Spear missed.
Maybe someday I'll replay the whole game. ..someday.. hehe

[Chaos Queen]

over 102 hours in.


go ahead, call me insane.

i love side quests and hunts, and about 5 of those hours are probably when the game was paused and i had to go do some chores or something.

i have technically finished the game, but i still play, completing more hunts and side quests.

Vaan - level 51 - Deathbringer (weapon, sword)
Balthier - level 53 - God Save The Queen (weapon, great sword)
Fran - level 51 - Volcano/Deathbringer (weapons, hand bomb/sword)
Basch - level 52 - Murasame (weapon, katana)
Ashe - level 52 - Deathbringer (weapon, sword)
Penelo - level 52 - Golden Hammer (weapon, hammer)


i change my accessories from bubble belts, embroidered tippets, and golden amulets.

all my characters have all their Quickenings, and every spell and technick, and the entire top half of the license board filled out.

my clan rank is Knight of the Round, which is second highest clan rank. (if you count the highest rank which you receive for completing all hunts, the bestiary, and the sky pirates den.)

yes, i am quite obsessed with the game and know almost everything about it.

[Strife_Tidus]

All my characters are at about...45 right now?

At Balfonheim, I am at about 57 hours. (2 1/2 days!!! Whoa!)

[DeaQ]

about 180, only have the Omega mark left and I beat the game, I beat Yiazmat before Omega because Omega is very hard to find, the battle should not be hard but finding it will. I have every weapon in the game, getting tournesol was pain in the arse but t is worth it.

[Miyu]

When I beat the game a few weeks ago, I was right around 80-85 hours. I didn't complete EVERYTHING, but damn near most of it. I finished every hunt except that last one, the one that takes (and I quote the strategy guide) "Many hours to complete". No thanks... Got SOME of the extra espers, like Ultima, but not all. My main party was level 69-71 when I finished.
