Congrats! How long did it take you? I tend to mess around and end up redoing things, so I'm still in Part 1 with ~20 hours so far.
225h (). Although that's because after the first 20h (of just mucking about in the tutorial chapter) I settled for turn-based and didn't look back.
Time-wise it sounds about right, I think. I know a lot of folks wanted turn-based; I don't mind doing pause-go-pause as needed. Maybe there's too much Baldur's Gate in me. :)
It's still too vast for its own good, though. I'm glad I only picked it up now that they've fixed most of the annoyances. I remember that for v1.x changelogs were pages long, full with Bethesda logic fixes...
If it's any consolation the tabletop version is about the same, but without much of an overarching story. You have to have read all six adventures, come up with how you want to integrate what happens in Chapter 6, and then sprinkle things into the other Chapters. It is indeed a sandbox. So far I like what they've done story-wise.
I still dislike the ruleset and the exceedingly random rolls (esp. Perception where by definition you don't even know you rolled low).
Well, that's Pathfinder (and, by extension, D&D 3.x) for you. Every RPG system has some places you just have to accept (or house rule) and have fun despite them.
It's the world and its characters that kept me going. And I especially love the two tiefling girls... murrrr...
I haven't met them again yet, but I did get the DLCs so they should be there when I reach them. :)
