>>41257725>>the game is only 12 hours long!>>actually its a lot longer when you are trying to beat it as fast as possible the wild area alone can double that timeOP, pic related is the completion schedule of someone who spent lots of time playing around the wild area, catching just about every pokemon he found cute or interesting, and getting lost a few times. The only exceptional thing he did was skip a few off-road NPC battles and turn off battle animations.
So your average player who just wants to battle with a few of their new favorite pokemon is gonna get through the game in even less time.
