It is incredibly long. I've got over 50 hours now, and I'm not even seemingly anywhere near the titular city that is the game's namesake. I know it's in the game; I have quests to visit people there. I don't know how many acts there are, possibly 3; I've not even finished act 1 and I've been glued to this game super hard.
But you can also save literally at any time. Mid combat, mid sentence of dialogue, wherever. So you can always stop exactly where you are, at least.
Damn everything about this game sounds exciting.
It is. You also have actual choices with actual consequences too. The "normal" route is to side with the good guys, but I'm pretty confident you can also choose to play evil and have another campaign on the complete opposite side of the fight.
