Hmm I'm about 18 hours in, and so far I've done The nature of the beast quest, the mage tower and I protected Redcliffe village from the undead (didn't do the castle itself) 
Maybe 50 hours is pushing it a little, the game doesn't seem that  long
Btw, my friend finished with 160 hours or somethings, which is insane  .  . . .

I took my time with everything and clocked over a 100 hours with one character.

Took your time how? I mean just how the hell could u add that many hours to the game O.O...did you like, walk everywere instead of run? lol "

80 hours for me first time through.  I was pretty thorough and that includes the Warden's Keep DLC.

Oh yeah, my playthrough was with the Shale quest too. Probably added an extra 40 mins or so, I'm under the impression that the Wardens Keep is just as short too? "

The Shale quest was short enough, I remember the Warden's Keep being significantly longer. "

I'd say a huge part of it was probably you playing through it on Normal and not pausing much during the battles. Battles can easily take 2-3x as long if you are pausing after every round of attacks. Also, did you spend alot of time talking to all your party members in camp? All that can easily add up, especially with the sidequests that get opened up as a result advancing the dialogue with your party members.

11 hours? Shit, I was barely out of Lothering at that point, you must have gone headfirst into every story mission and not bothered much with side quests or party interaction. My final play time was 42 hours or so with a level 19 human noble warrior by the end of it all.

Between doing almost every sidequest (besides the DLC and for some reason the mage's guild quests) and reading through almost every codex entry, my first playthrough ended at 81 hours. If you know how to do everything already, I imagine it being shorter, but every game is. I'm honestly baffled that anyone could come in at a low time without ignoring most of the gameplay and story and just speed-running it.
 
To put it even more in perspective, my current, second playthrough, in which I've skipped through a lot of the dialogue and all of the codex entries, is now clocked just under 50 hours. I've just finished the urn of sacred ashes quest, and I've got one more event (the Dalish elves) before advancing on to the next section of the game. This is with the DLC.
 
But judging a game based solely on play hours, to a certain point (because if a game is under 3 hours but excellent quality, you've still got to judge just how much enjoyment you got out of it for what you paid), is stupid.

I clocked in at just over 40 hours myself... and I missed out on a lot.
 
For one, I barely had any party members at the end of the game. I barely had enough to form a party(I had four, I think). I didn't have a single Rogue for the entire length of the game. I played a Warrior, and played semi-good, so I only really had one Mage with me. Still, I really enjoyed my playthrough and I liked how my character turned out.

I was around 50 hours the first time through, but I took my time on a lot of it. The second time through was considerably shorter.

Approx 50 hours to me. Didn't do any of the Blackstone quests though, and not all of the Collective quests.

" @AndrewB: Thats a fair point, I didn't read a single entry in the codex.  And I'm not judging the game by its hours either, just expressing how surprised i was at how quick I got through it when i've heard so much of its ''epic'' length even for an RPG. "

I didn't too much of the side quests because I have to catch up on a lot of other games.  I think the final time total was about 25 hours.

I finished the game at about 18 hours. I only did side-quests that were particularly interesting, of which there weren't that many.

 My first play through was around 90 hours and I STILL HAD NOT unlocked every class specialization, gotten every codec, gotten every achievement, done every side quest, downed the high dragon, or gotten anyone in my party to sleep with me. Then there's all the different outcomes you can have happen to all the events in the game, random stuff you can encounter in the game such as the superman reference in the field, Jowan (if you let him live), the 3 some or 4 some in the brothel, or sleeping with the hermaphrodite dwarf. How anyone can complete the game in under 50 hours without skipping most of the games content is beyond me.

I've just checked, It say's I've logged in a total of 91 hours.
Wow! That scares me. I completed it over the course of a week and a half.
In terms of spread out over that passing time. :-/
 
I think I deserved it though. I'd been pushing myself pretty damn hard just before the date of it's release with my Uni coursework so I'd be ahead of myself and leave myself some Dragon Age time.
You'd be amazed how much work you can get done when you have a game to motivate you, lol. :-p
