Did all quests, abscenses, bosses etc. on cov, sharpened builds in 1st coc and 2nd one is speedrun. Skipped watched cutscenes in 1st coc.
I skipped miman after 100~, I farmed mitama for glory late game.

CoV normal mode was about 50 hours for me, doing most sidequests.

[Sejman22]

40h if you rush game, without sidequest and maxing demon compedium
80h if you do all sidequest, mimans, and max demon compedium.
Ofcourse this is only 1 of 6 possible endings in this game, and 1 of 2 possible routes (Vengeance or Creation). If you want to do every route and endings it's around 160h.

[Topzchi]

took me exactly 89 hours to 100% COV chaos route, all side quests, unlockable demons of that route and about few hours of grinding.

this is even not the highest difficulty there a new one that call ''godborn'' but to unlock it you need to beat the super boss first

Took me about 60-64 hours to do Canon of Creation's True Neutral on Hard while doing most sidequests save for the two superbosses. Granted the last three or four hours of that were mostly just prepping for Tandava-a-rama and the Spirit Bomb DPS Check. Not sure yet on Canon of Vengeance, only gotten up to the school incident currently....

No loner than 40 hours

If you rush? Maybe.

No rushing needed. Easily beaten in 30 hours completeitionist. HLB has inaccurate overstated recording as they work hand in hand with game companies.

Considering the fact that I'm halfway through the game and I'm on 40 hours (not using a guide, of course), I HIGHLY disagree with you.

Plus, HLTB is usually incredibly accurate compared to my experiences. But again, I don't rush. I don't use guides, I don't skip cutscenes, I talk to NPCs and I don't like running around like I have ADHD (like most Youtubers do).

I finished my first run within 40hrs and didn't feel at all like I was rushing. I did almost every quest ... I didn't completely fill my demon codex (only like 80%) because I knew I'd jump back in right after I finished my first run.

Exactly think those completing it only after 80 are leaving their games on or their brains arent really being engaged and they are spending hours in idle.

I have ADHD as well, and have basically completed the game 30 hours in, i also have Autism a 60 hours a week job + Regulary nights and weekends.

Most Youtubers and Influencers have false diagnosis of ADHD instead of actually having the condition its severly misdiagnosed and out of fear of "Hurting feelings" they wont tell them they dont have it, there are very simple tests they can do to confirm a lack of chemicals being released, usually involving eye movement but things like the NHS wont do them because they dont have the gutts to so most people that actually have the condition because influencers want an excuse or victim status when they dont deserve it.

Adult ADHD is VERY VERY rare and usually either involves a microdeletion (Part of a gene defect) or some very rare abnormalities. Its tragic that its being misdiagnosed and other adults are seeking a false diagnosis.

Just finished my first playthrough in ~45 hours and I didn't rush. 80 seems excessive. I mean yeah .. if you want to get almost everything 80 seems correct but imo. getting everything looks like a bore in this game.

According to HLTB: Of 759 players, only 140 finish it in 45 hours or less, which sets you in the Main + Extra "rushed" category. This contradicts the very first statement you made (no rush).

HLTB also says 99 hrs on average for completionists, "Main + Sidequests"-runs on average are 70 hrs. So 80 hrs is not excessive, it's the norm - which also contradicts your second statement.

Not that impressive imo when most of what a player does is farming Mitama, abusing insta kill setups and rush bosses and very often massive help of guides, fusion calculators and so on. Imo it's more exploiting /cheesing the game than enjoying iut. But if that is what brings a player happiness, then it's perfectly fine.
