It's one of the best RPGs in the last decade, easy. Unless you already know how pathfinder works, it's going to take longer than two months to beat it. There's an insane amount of gameplay.

Ahh... i remember kingmaker. 200 hours is what a single playthrough took. Wrath of the rightuous improved greatly upon the previous game.

Yeah, 220 hours for mine, including the DLC campaign. Game is a buggy mess though and not properly balanced, especially near the end. As long as WotR improves at least those things, I'd be happy.

I barely had any bugs/glitches in kingmaker. Only a couple of visual ones. Nothing game breaking even though I messed around with mods too. The game was balanced really well too. Pathfinder is just a hard system.

Wotr is better in a lot of ways, but I did encounter a game breaking bug where one of the army stats stopped levelling.

Nothing game breaking for me as well, but tons of small stuff, plus atrocious performance.

Also, in my opinion, the last third of the game was just a complete slog. Enemies had just far too much health. Some of the final fights against trash mobs took as long or maybe longer than the final boss. I wouldn't call that balanced.

Dunno if you want to count it towards the balance, but the Kingdom Management was also not implemented well at all. In the first half it's just event after event, no breathing room. The second half it's constantly waiting, doing nothing, just clicking "next."
