...so you are essentially comparing speedruns for experts to casual first time playthroughs?


casual first timers can skip all the cutscenes, and/or play on easiest difficultly and finish it within 5-8 hours. Take it from someone who actually plays MGS, like myself. You can finish the game in less than 5 hours and not get Big Boss rank.


And casual first time players can beat The Order on normal difficulty in under 6 hours without skipping any of the cutscenes... Once again, main story runs of MGS4 go from 10.5hours rushed (quickest time out of the 322 who played the game for the main story only) to 32hours leisure with an average of 18.5hours. That is ignoring the extras and the multiplayer.

Comparing the two is quite a stretch...
