Geez, that was quick. How long did it take you?
It's been years since I played the PST but I seem to recall it taking some time to get through. I'm not in a hurry to pick this up anyway as while I really liked certain sections of the original, I found other parts to be tedious and am not in a rush to go back.

I suppose I'm in the unique position of being a PS:T newbie because I found the original's opening hours so tedious, it's taken me 5 retries over 10 years to muster the effort required to clank through it, and each time I made it out to Sigil, I managed to somehow lose my savegames.
Keeping that in mind, I like T:ToN fine so far. I'm not thrilled about the lack of good character writing, but the world's still the biggest draw for me.

If you've not started a play through of this game, I'd HIGHLY recommend waiting about 6 months. inXile Entertainment mentioned this in their last KS update:
To that end, we are pleased to announce that we will be working on additional content and updates for Torment post-release. These updates will include:
* Oom ("The Toy" companion).
* Voluminous Codex.
* Crisis system improvements.
Our initial updates to the game will focused on bug fixes, optimizations, and other improvements, while the content additions will come later down the line. Both the patches and content updates will, of course, be completely free for all Torment owners, including backers, PC buyers, and console players. We will have more news on these in the coming weeks and months!Read more that (

This is why I waited so long after Pillar's of Eternity's release before I played it :p.

Steam is showing 33 hours total played. It's not super short, but it is pretty short for a plot heavy RPG.

Be of note that the big content update patch was released today. So if you were holding off until all the stretch goal content was added in, now's the time to start a new game.
The devs also recommend starting a new game to enjoy all of the new content since some of it kicks in quite early on.
