So I've finished the true ending on Chronicles of the Wolf and I decided to restart, see how much better it is if I know where to go. The amount of time it's taking, even on data that I keep saved, at 85% of the way through the game is less than 1/4 of my initial run. And yes, it's because I know where to go, but even though there's still backtracking and even though I've still wasted some time on the second run, it just goes to show just how padded the game was in the first place.

I think I'll complete the games true ending in six hours or less. Considering that the game shows your percentage, if someone was to play two hours and see they have 30% of the game done(if it wasn't padded AF) they could just refund the game, enjoy the initial experience and not even worrying about finishing the game. I mean what's that new metric? That most gamers don't even beat 1/10th of their games?
