Then you're speedrunning. A Link to the Past is not that short. For a regular run to a regular person it'd be 15-20 hours.

You’re remembering the game wrong, or you only played it once. It’s way shorter than 20 hours if you know what you’re doing: you’d have to waste time to get above 6 hours. And I am not rushing or anything either, I could probably get the game down to 3 hours if I did rush.

The top 500 Speed runners all do the game in under 2 hours, with the fastest speed runners getting it to the 1 hour 23 minute mark. https://www.speedrun.com/alttp

I know the record is under one and a half hour. That’s not very representative though. Mario 64’s record is like under 10 minutes if I remember correctly. I’m remembering ALttP quite well though because I’ve played it plenty. But that’s it; normal people don’t know what they’re doing. This isn’t a short game. https://howlongtobeat.com/game?id=10028

EDIT: That Mario time is with glitches, but still. The 100% record is 1:38:54. (WOW)
