I never understood the gameplay estimates, DA:O was estimated to be at about 40+ hours gameplay, I finished it completely with all the side quests in 17, ME2 was estimated to be great amount too, I did it in about 21 on normal and 24 on insane(After alot of practice). I don't rush it either, I take my time with games, unless they're FPS.

You finished DA:O with all sidequests in 17 hours....? How. Is. That. Possible? o_O

My 100% save file, on Nightmare, hit the 100 hour mark just before I fought the Arch-Demon at the end. 

Yeah it took me 85 hours on nightmare as well....I think he played it on easy.

Even on Easy, I don't think it's close to being possible, if you try to do everything at all in the game. Heck, even with a team of Wynne, Morrigan and you as a Magic user, spamming Inferno, Blizzard and Tempest and Zevran with a good elemental resist equip doing backstabs left and right, there's little chance that it's possible to breeze through every battle in the game fast enough for that mark on Easy. 

If true, that's the fastest speed run I've heard for DA:O.

At easy all those things don't really matter. At least to me they didn't. At easy you didn't have friendly damage on consoles, now I am not sure if that's true for the PC version....

Also on easy it was seriously easy to kill enemies, one shot and dead easy. It was like a hack and slash game.

Still 17 hours meant he didn't really engage in any conversation or anything. He said he did side quests.....hard to believe that. Even I didn't do all the side quests. I did 90-95% of the side quests though.
