I'm sure if you don't make as many mistakes as I did, it would be shorter lol. But hey, mistakes are part of the learning process.


~4 Days for early concept setup and FCS tutorial work
-You can make your own start with no prior FCS knowledge in an hour or less
-Dialogue other stuff takes a bit longer
-I spent about 3 hours a day, but I am a slow, distracted worker and get caught up writing lore
~2 days looking for ideal Hive Scum faction location and placing stuff
~3 days working on dialogue for Hive Scum characters (All stuff before even the first quest)
~3 days fixing dialogue for Main Hive Scum Characters (Absolutely exhausted but when I finally place the enemy camp and things work flawlessly I will take a break)
~3 days finishing things up with the camp and stuff.
