4th Gen How long did it take you to beat the game?

[shinyabsol1]

Started with Diamond, took me a month to beat fully because I had no idea what I was doing...musta been like 30 hours or something. But both platinum and pearl took me more like 15 hours to complete from experience.

 

[Try4se]

My first run through for pokemon diamond took 13 hours, I spent a lot of time underground though.

 

[Fushigidane-Chan]

I think my Diamond was finished in 16 hours. Platinum was less, although obviously because I already knew where to go and what to do, for the most part.

 

[Rida]

I never finished it. ;3
I usually lose motivation when I'm at the E4 so I quit the game then. n_n

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

I don't remember exactly, but I want to say in the neighborhood of 35-40 hours due to my intense level grinding and my compulsion to speak to EVERY NPC in the game xD

 

[Morgnarok]

I beat pokemon platinum in 21 hours.

 

[Cydes!1!]

.... 58 hours '--------'.
Yes, I'm a newbie.

 

[Cathar]

I don't know the actual number, but I know that it took me much longer than previous games.

I have all three, and Pearl was my first. I have 100+ hours on it. Platinum is currently played by my girlfriend but she's taking her time.
And Diamond is my go-to-game, I have restarted it at least half a dozen times.

 

[2umbreon212]

44-48 hours

When I had pearl, my first of the three,(I have all three now unintentionally) it took me about 44 hours. I remember i was not as considerate of the game as i am now, so now i could probobly do less if i wanted to

My Time was something like 26 hours on Diamond but now it's something like 241 Hours.

 

[NamelessGuy]

I don't generally keep track of my play time, but I think I completed Pearl in roughly 25 hours on my first file. In subsequent files, it was below 20.

 

[Eurydice]

for diamond it probably took about 3 months because of school and work.
pearl i am only really using for storage. and plat i just restarted

 

[ltsang]

At first when diamond was released I download the game and I couldn't find my place around. I was stuck for a week then I quit because it keep crashing down on me. So yeah. I'm going to buy the game again and try to play it tomorrow. If not I'll just use it to collect the legendary beast from gamestop.

Merging two identical threads. D:
Try not to make a topic when a similar one already exists.

It can take me 30+ Hours, I like to take my time.

 

[KitKat13]

It took me a week too, I was so busy at that time with school and stuff.

 

[Raith775]

[hazard master]

I was so pumped for the realese, had it preordered, took me about 20 hours. Yeah infernape just swept the floor clean with everyone and palkia just cleaned up the dragons.
