Feature scans:
- Wiki: score 50; verdict: Student-level wiki dependency; summary: User feedback shows a strong dependency on external guides for understanding quest outcomes, hidden secrets, and resource locations. The remastered version reduces some friction with official markers, but the core design still demands wiki-level research to avoid missed content and wasted time.

Feature extractions:
- Community Price: No data
- Playtime Metrics:
  - Game completion: N/A
  - Story completion: 16.5h
  - Session length: 1.0h
  - Endgame: N/A
  - Reasoning: The quote 'My first blind playthrough took me 16 17 hrs' directly provides a story completion time for a typical first playthrough that achieves multiple endings. The quote 'I didn't know about easy mode hence the 24hrs' gives another playthrough time, but it's unclear if this includes all content. The quote 'I've only played for an hour' indicates a short session length. The quote about needing at least 2 playthroughs for all CGs and endings suggests full completion requires more time, but no total hours are given, so gameCompletion is left null. Endgame is unsupported.
