How long gameplay does GW2 ensures?
After that you can start an alt.
If you are an average player( regarding available playtime, not skill), then probably when you are finished with all those goals, and have leveled up at least 3 characters to their max level, Anet will probably allready have an expansion ready for you.
I was playing GW1 and I even couldn’t finish all the content of all the expansions before GW2 was out. That’s why I started GW2 right from the release; to be able to finish most of the main content before the expansion hits the stores.
If you have at least 3 chars and want to get all exotic sets with them (for all builds), do all dungeons etc you have more than 2000 hours of just PvE for you (5h/day for a year), and then PvP.
If you’re going to spend 2000 hrs on a game, do it properly and pick out an Asian mmo, they’re tailored specifically for that.
Revan, if you enjoy the game, then there’s almost never ending amounts of things to do. Getting all of the achievements, playing WvW/SPvP, maxing SPvP rank, maxing all professions, getting 1 legendary, and if you enjoy that kind of thing making more than one 80. There’s many things to achieve, and many ways to achieve it. All of this hinges on you enjoying the game regardless of what you’re gaining. If you like the game, then you’ll always have stuff to go after (achievements, SPvP rank, Legendary and so on). This is many thousands of hours of playing.
This is not like WoW though. You’re not strongly compelled to do these things. You’ll only do them if you enjoy the game on its own. If you don’t, then they’re simply not worth doing. That’s okay, we all have our own reasons for playing the game. But if you like the game for itself, you’ll have all the content you could ever want.

If you are a perfectionist, then yea there isn’t much to do after you’ve done “everything.” At that point, level up some alts and/or join some PvP tournaments.
…or set yourself up for world domination.

There’s an infinite amount of gameplay in the game. What is NOT infinite, is your boredom tolerance.
A person that loves the game enough to never get bored, could play WvW or PvP or make new characters over and over forever.
Of course, real people will get bored eventually. The point is, different people get bored of different things at different rates. So you can never tell just how much content is -really- in a game.
Even level cap or endgame loot doesnt count – I got bored of WoW by level 30, so ultimately it didnt have much gameplay hours for me.
