UnfairRepresent 09/29/17 12:43:53 PM #8:	Apocalyptic posted... Longer than the previous games? I usually clocked between 30-35 hours on the previous Mass Effect games. Nah it's shorter. It takes about 20 hours just to do the main story. I 100%ed it (almost, didn't do one or two bullshit collectibles quests) 99.9%ed it in about 45. I think it just FEELS longer because there is a lot of padding. Tons and tons of padding. Like Skyrim Meets Dragon Age Inquisition padding.
