It totally depends, there are 3 way really to finish each chapter.
1. Run through the story
2. To Do the side quests and the story
3. Clean this games clock.
To do Episode 1 is to know you will have little or a lot of work to do in episode 2.
So heres how it goes.
Episode 1:
1 = Fast probably 9 hours tops depends on your level and if you know what to do.
2 = About 15 hours some of the parts of this can be difficult enough to keep you.
3 = 40 hours, this means your going to rip episode 2 a new one.
Episode 2:
1 = This is doable in 13 hours because the ending mobs will rip you a new one if your not prepared.
2 = 19 hours if can be longer if you don’t get too bumbed out by the super freakin grim story.
3= I don’t know.
All together if you gun for getting set items and rank 10 items and so on then this game can hold you. Not to mention the slots and the raw mats to make gear. Plus mixing your styles of play.
I'm Unamerica and you can too.
