  - Reasoning: The target game is the Scrap Mechanic - Fan Pack cosmetic DLC. The playtime-related statements refer to Scrap Mechanic itself, such as buying it 7 years ago and checking Scrap Mechanic playtime, and provide no hours for the Fan Pack. The DLC is described only as cosmetics and outfits, with no evidence of a completion time, story completion length, session length, or endgame duration. The vague statement 'Played a lot more than my playtime suggests' is not tied to a numeric target-DLC playtime. Therefore every playtime metric is null.
