2 1/2 to 3 hours played, I think, and I am not having the performance problems others report. I play at 3440x1440 and max settings with a RTX 3090 and a Ryzen 5800X. I don't monitor fps, but there have not been noticeable drops. I almost took pass due to reviews of the FOV as well as checking it out on some streams. The FOV zoom does not bother me, though. I don't doubt it's a problem for some, and while a FOV slider would be nice, the game's not making me sick. I sit just over an arm's length from the 34" monitor. Otherwise, the cosmetics, mechanics, voice acting and story are consistent with expectations based on the first Elex. I agree with those reviewers who find the combat with monsters more forgiving early on. I'm playing on Hard, which is the second highest difficulty. The economy is about the same. Three stars out of five is good.
I may play again someday, maybe not. Gamebreaking quest glitches.
