It was surprisingly easier than i thought. I got my first character to 22 by the end of my first playthough which took me about 40 hours total what with backtracking, puzzle and quest solving. Then i knew where quest locales were, i knew the gameplay i knew my next move.. SPOILER: When you defend redcliffe the first time it took me like 4 hours to do all the mini quests and bonuses like oil barrels, weaponsmith, praying for the soldiers, getting the dwarf to help, getting the shopkeeper to help. And i was a warrior the first time which does considerably less dps than the rogue or mage, so i knew how to finish the quests and breeze through them, it only took about 15 hours for the last two playthrough with me just barely hitting level 20 by skipping a couple of longer questlines that didnt open new quests for more experience and also doing both DLC's. Plus i did 3 romances the first time and all the NPC sidequests exept Sten's which took a considerable amount of time. My second playthrough i only had to get Alistair into bed which was easy, hes a whore despite what you think, haha. |
Each of my first 2 playthrough took 50 hours or so...
I did miss a few things the first time and made sure to do everything the second time though.
This last playthrough as a rogue is probably still going to take me 30-35 hours to get to level 20..
