Lost Odyssey length

How long does Lost Odyssey take to finish.....ballpark number of hours?

also, does anyone get angry at the frequency of random encounters which you are FORCED to play thru, and u get minimal xp and maybe a healing potion?!?!?!??! not cool

It's 4 discs long. That should explain it. Also, if you're a JRPG fan, you won't get frustrated.

About 50 t0 60 hours if you watch all cut scene

No it usualy happens in JRPG s

too long for me :D. id rather do other stuff.

I have over 85 hours and still haven't finished it.

About 50 hours. Radom encounters bothered me a little in a couple of areas but not to much.Marka1700

I think the game has pretty scarce random encounters compared to most RPG's.

50-60 hours is about right, though. Its long, but for an RPG, it didn't feel that long to me for some reason. I guess I'm usedjust used to 80-100+ hour RPG's now.

I cleared all the Dungeons, and got all the best gear and everyone was level 90-93

My gameclock was like 82hrs.

But you could probably beat it around 50.

Too many hours. I stopped playing once I got to that magically sealed cave after finding my wife or whatnot. TOO MANY RANDOM ENCOUNTERS MAKES ROTTENBERRY GO CRAZY.

I stopped playing at about 24 hours and that's the start of the third disc. Anywhere from 50-80 hours depending if you go for the side-quests.

No side quests - took me 45 - 50 hours about.

Completing all side quests - 100+ hours

Took me 80 hours but I really took my time on it and got the DLC for it as well.

are the side quests rewarding to do? or are they skippable

I'm playing it right now and I have given up reading the dreams after the first few. It takes waaaay to long.

The Side Quests are a lot of fun, and if they had no point I wouldn't have put 80+ hours into the game.

The Point is, The game is fun and addictive. Youll WANT to do the sidequests because the game is good, not because youll feel youll need to.

IMO its the best JRPG this gen, and to be honost, I don't even think FF13 will come close to beating it in terms of Mature Storyline. There are points in Lost Odyssey that make you tear up, Final Fantasy hasn;t done that in MANY MANY titles.

FF13 will probably be a lot better in terms of gameplay, but I dont see how the story will ever top Lost Odyssey.

I think I beat it somewhere between the 40-50 hour mark. It's not a horribly long RPG, at least by my standards that is.

45 hours after doing a few of the side quests.

if you have Sed use Turn Tail, guaranteed run away!

I agree. It's Uber long, but its enjoyable all the way. I kept getting sidetracked, and haven't palyed it for a while now. I was on disc 4 i think...soon after you get the little flying boat thing. I was wandering around getting all the major side quests and totally forgot to finish the game. It's great, I suggest you buy it...it's hugely under-rated imo.

+45 long I was at the last dungeon around 45 hours.

Oh my god you people took forever! lol I did it in about 30-40 hours I believe and yes, I did get a large sum of achievements and did my fare share of side quests.Kimbo_Slyce

You missed 10x more than you know then. I didn't even fight for EXP at all through the game and I just ended up at level 90 at the end, 0 time wasted, the game has that much content.
