210 hours, haven't done act 3 yet...

My first (and for now, only) full playthrough was around that ballpark, and I really took my time to wander everywhere, read all the books and such. Now I’m wondering I might’ve missed stuff! Uh oh!

You probably have missed stuff! When I started my second playthrough I couldn't believe how much more content there was. And I haven't even finished act 3 in either playthrough...

Me and my partner started our second play through. We cheesed and got Karlach early, literally when we got to the grove. So there whole bits of dialogue that are new.
We found parts of the map in the forge we missed. Some side quests we missed. Characters.
We are doing things in a different order this time. Like the first time at the forge, nere was already dead. This time he was alive and we managed to get him out from behind the cave in.
We're actually talking to the companions in camp.
We didn't get rejected by astarion at the party, but rejected him instead.
La'ziel didn't reject me at the part. But I rejected her.
So much stuff is different.
Being a bard is fun. I played at the party and volo and alfira joined in on the performance.
So much fun to see all the different stuff.

Lol I'm about there now, halfway thru act 2 but I've been doing a ton of other shit in between main story.

Holy shit I thought I had dumped a lot of time into it

I put over a hundred hours in the first week I'm pretty sure.

Honestly, Id probably won't be touching act 3 again until the eventual release of definitive edition. The act 3 ending and what happened to kalarch is such a bummer.
