100 hours is nothing in video game time
That's quite a lot for a SP game. Most games I'll get 10-30 hours, 40-50 if I really like it. There are some outliers where I get hundreds of hours, but must games will be in that range.
This game in particular, I could see taking a lot of people (maybe not an average number of people but a big chunk) 100 hours just to complete without even doing side stuff because they get stuck on a boss for several hours at a time, every time.
It being a good game and giving the best feeling after beating something you're stuck on for a while just pushes people to keep going until they finish the whole thing.
Perhaps. But if a boss is too hard, I also see a lot of people starting over to redo the earlier bosses with a different build. I've done that a fair amount on other games.
Depends on the game.
100 hours in WOW is nothing, 100 hours in Firewatch is mental
You're in the circlejerk, don't bring reality into this.
All praise ER!
