Can agree with most of what you wrote down here, valid concerns. But what I'm most curious about... I took about 40h for my first run
How in all nine hells did you manage SEVERAL runs while exploring everything (at least in the first run)?
hahaha a fair question. Working from home helps. DEFINITELY did not spend close to 40 hours on a single run. Mashed through a lot of dialogue on repeat playthroughs, and missed several entire side quests and areas on my first guy. Dialogue and cutscenes are a big chunk of the time, and if you skip them, you definitely can through it much quicker.
