Apparently you can plough through the main quest in under 20 hours if you ignore most of the other stuff, but there are a tonne of side quests / hunts etc.
Like I said above, I'm at over 30 hours and I've only just gotten to the first town... But I do think that's probably an extreme example. |

Characters all pushing level 90 and I did quite a few of the "end game" optional dungeons before I went on hiatus

Apparently they're considering making either a standalone game, or a new film about Adryn's backstory.

The comrades expansion is out! I'm enjoying it so far, it's pretty well made. The character creation is fantastic, and the story is interesting, with it being set a few months after
Spoiler: Comrade spoiler Spoiler: Anyway, here's my character!

I really want to play it but I should probably finish the game first... haha. I could probably plough through pretty fast, I was lvl 80-something and have already left the main area / fought Leviathan...

It will make sense if you complete the main game first (actually, don't think it unlocks until after Chapter 11). They've made quite a few additions on the back end of the game, adding much more story to the second half. The character episodes have been decent, Prompto's was good.

They're only able to do that now after having made all the character episodes, would have been too much work to put in the original game I think.

I also think they originally fully intended for the big post-chapter-9 world area to be a fleshed out open world just like the first area, and again it was just a stretch too far. |

The game, while excellent (the story less so), was rushed which is crazy when you think that it was in development for 10+ years.

I actually still haven't finished it; I got up to [spoiler]Hammerhead, "10 years later" where it says there's no turning back once you leave Hammerhead[/quote] Then I Umbra'd to Lucis to do some hunts and sidequests, been considering going for the platinum, but now (again!) I might drop it until January and completely start from scratch . I haven't done that much side content and I reckon it would only take maybe 15 hours to go back through the main questline with a bit of wandering thrown in, and then go from there for platinum. I never used to be into trophies at all but after getting two platinums this year I feel oddly compelled . |

It probably didn't help that they threw out most of what they were working on with Versus XIII tbh, it did feel like they were trying to latch on to the open world trend and I think they sacrificed a lot of Versus to do that. It annoys me that they threw XV's story together when Versus XIII's story from the bits that have been released sounded fantastic.
I've been meaning to play through it again for the new story content to see if it fixes things but I keep putting it off since they keep adding more to the main story. I bought the season pass when it came out but I've yet to play Prompto and Ignis' episodes. |

There are a few narrated cut-away sequences that I feel like might be what was added? I honestly can't think of anything else it could be. |

Well, the new path was the Gladio/Ignis one, in which you control Gladio, it has a lot more lore in it, I think they kept the Noctis path so it didn't seem like they were 'deleting' part of the game. Also, the ring used to be super weak, and the enemies would take ages to kill, which made the stealth/survival horror thing more important. But it went on too long, so they boosted the ring to make that part of the game faster.
