How long is this game supposed to be?


That's up to how you really.   I'm still playing the original about 35hrs in, finished the story but this game isn't about the story, that's just supplimental, it's about the exploration and I'm still finding 1-2 new species on most dives, still getting photo requests and dive missions, still have a number of species to find and only about 1/3 of the treasures (although that's really optional).   So it depends on how much of a completionist you are and if you just love to dive you can dive endlessly.   psisheep reported clocked over 800 hours in the game.  Yeah, I dunno how he does it either.


Wow, I love these types of games. Now I kinda wish I had a Wii.

I personally have spent 120 hours on the first game, I recently (just before this new one released) found the final species and completed the guide to marine life (214 species in total) I have not found all the treasures but that is because some are randomly appearing so you have to scour around just to have a chance of them appearing, I don't think that is worth it... this sequel definately fixes the treasure hunting bit. I also haven't recieved all the diving apparel that you can collect, the remaining ones generally need me to do more diving guide and photo requests (which are literally endless)

This game has over 300 species (I can't remember the exact figure) and more areas to explore, many many more things to do, and enviroment is designed much better... a lot of the underwater in the original was kind of "samey" in places, wheras even just looking at the first area you are put in (which has the same kind of enviroment as the original game had for 90% of it's map) you can see the much bigger variety in the shapes and placement of the rocky and coral areas.

Thanks.

This and NSMBW have sparked my interest. It may not be long until I get a Wii.
