Only started yesterday? I can guarantee you that you will not be anywhere near a quarter of the way through.

Do it. Especially the DLC if you have it. It's amazing.

I enjoyed it, played a lot of hours in it and just got distracted....

Easily 3-4 hours. Levelling up and doing everything there so I never have to go back.

I highly doubt he will be doing a speed run for a first play through. I don't even know why you would want to on a game as brilliant as this.

Yeah I pretty much do everything every game play. Some of the side quests are better than the main story.
I love this universe so much. I'm reading the books again. Show sucks but everything else is great.

There was a glitch where the world would slow down every time you pulled the crossbow so you could essentially sprint at x10 speed for the entire game.
That's fair enough then... Was racking my brain... Going how the * do ya do it that quickly... Bloody well wouldn't even be in skelliga by then.

On my first play through and up to Isle of Mists. Finding a few things first but not everything, no point considering the possibility of a new game+ and also the expansions, as much as I am enjoying it I don't want to do everything.
I don't want to leave Skellige lol. Amazing place.

I think I underestimated how long this game is lol. But it doesn’t even matter, it’s so brilliant.
The game mechanics could use with some updating for the PS5 version. Long load times constantly. The screen going blurry for 20 seconds after choosing dialogue. Swords sometimes un-equipping before a sword fight. But that’s my only complaint of a game I can just tell that I will play multiple times.

Expect to put in a good 150-200 hours! It doesn't even feel like it's dragging out, I got to the end and wanted more.
Think I was around 400 hours including the 2 expansions, did do pretty much everything though including a fair bit of scenic meandering lol. I do wanna play it again at some stage but just can't rationalise that kind of time committment.
Insane game.

I love to hear there is literally hundreds of hours of content. Sometimes with games that have this much content it can get tedious and repetitive but I am not seeing it with this game, everything is kept fresh and fun. I can’t say eniugh about what I have seen so far.
I keep Geralt fed on igni'd pork all the way through White Orchard and Velen.

It does help that both DLC are fantastic (especially Blood and Wine).

There is very little if any filler in this game. Every question mark on the map is something meaningful, every side quest has its own story. I think that's where the expectation for Cyberpunk came from where this game just set the bar so high. It's a genuine GOAT contender.
It’s easily my GOAT if I remove the nostalgia for older games.
Persona 5 Royal gave it a nudge though.

Easy GOAT for me and it isn't even close.

This is spot on. Except for lack of mention of Gwent adding to everything too!
I think my PSN says about 150+ hours on the game.
Also as dwwaino said, it's literally the reason why Cyberpunk had such huge expectations. The thing that The Witcher does so well compared to that, is in every one of its systems. It's the RPG game to play when you don't like RPG games. Because everything is so well tuned, so well crafted and works so well off of each other. It all works in perfect symphony.
Cyberpunk still, for all intents and purposes, had the story and even some of that good side quest stuff. But was so shallow everywhere else.
