It depends. If i remember correct, it must be around 7 -10 hours, but it depends on the skills of the player!!!!

It really depends on the following:
  • Combat skill
    If you use a map from a website like gamefaqs.com
    If you want to get absolutely everything
However, what really matters is that you like the game.  I also recommend taking your time and leveling up appropriately.  If you just rush through the game you can miss stuff and get crushed by some of the enemies.

yes, 10 hours....bc you need to level up you and your innocent devils bc Isaac is followed by a stronger enemy with no time to heal...get a corpsey, a battle type innonect devil, although easy to get, he is REALLY strong...when you get a battle ID use only axe untill he evolves, then only sword to the final evolution.
you can skip a lot of things making the game even 6 hours or so...go only for what matters...focus on being stronger.i made a speed run for that game (i do for all cv's) and i got 1 hour and 57 minutes...but don't think you can get as near that (at least not for a first run, hell at least for a 50's runs).


item combination faq so you don't waste rare material on a shitty "bamboo thingy"

http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file/925894/42170

also don't worry for maps for the game is quite rly lined up...

also in the forest of Jigramunt, don't go to the tower you see there, and even not to the tower followed by it...it's not worthy you'll lose too much time, efforts, frustation (too long) and possibly die (at least at the second tower)


after all said, have fun, it's a great game i love it, LoI had a cool story, but this one has better graphics better jogability, cool weapons...i have a thing for the dragon killer sword see the faq how to make it, it's not so far in the game till you can make it and it's rly destructable. with it and a corpsey battle ID, you are invincible.

farewell my son.

edit evolving to corpsey you no longer need to use sword you can use any weapon.the combo light, light, strong, it's the best sometimes hit more than longer ones is quick, dont let your guard down, use the dodge thingy wildly.that's all you can beat it easilly with mah recumendationz!!!!!!!!!!!for trully i'm a cv master guider!!!!!

. . . . . . .

And if you do not enjoy the game, the answer is too long.

Whenever I play this game I always break it up into segments so as to not get bored of it real fast. In terms of the mecha knight boss from the abandond castle area...is it possible to steal from him? Every time I play a new game and defeat him I see the monster bios list and it shows the steal color in one of the items lists. I can't understand this one bit. How can you steal from an enemy which never appears again and only after he's dead do you get your hands on the steal command option. Anybody??

Good point. Since I never bothered to replay Hector's primary mission, I never found out if your stats/weapons/abilities from the first playthrough carried over into your next attempt. Pretty standard for CV games as of late, but did it apply in CoD?

I can't say I've done it myself, as CoD is one of my least favorite games in the series, but I believe you have to get his steal item during the boss rush, since you don't get the steal ability until after you've beaten him in the story mode.

What I mean is that prior to the Mountains which is after the castle, you cannot steal. At all. The only way to steal is to get the steal item which is just after Julia's shop. This being the case you cannot steal from the mecha knight eventhough the enemy list shows that he's got something for you to take. But you can't cause you don't get the steal ability until after he's dead. And that just plain sucks. What was IGA's team thinking!?  :P

Actually, you can steal from the first boss (Crazy Armor) in the boss rush mode.

Thank you!

No, it will be a dreadful Saturday if you play CoD.

If you use spears the entire game, it will take you a very short amount of time to finish, so do it. The ID you get is ridiculously overpowered :P Listening to an audio book while playing the game will help you ignore the tedium as well.
