Question about event endings and secret endings (No Spoilers)

[MrTheHuman]

Are there events and secret endings that can only be done in the long games or can everything be done through short games? I usually play with 4 people so it can be difficult to set aside time for long games and would like to start working on more event/secret endings! Thanks!

i believe there are two endings that cant be done in short games because the short games skip love choices (the day 1 events that show the characters faces with a heart after you make your choice) but i always play long games so im not entirely sure about that
if there are no love choices then those two endings are definitely off the table
some item endings might be impossible too because you wouldnt have time to make enough money to buy them before time ran out but id have to do some testing to figure out which ones

I've experienced this problem. If you want to do any of the $12 item endings on a 4-player game, you cannot do it on the short version. Each route takes 3 normal events to complete and in a short 4-player game you only have 4 normal events, which means you only have the first normal event and lunchtime to both get $12 AND go to the shop. It's impossible.

The long game, fortunately, is only a third longer so it's not like a crazy amount longer, but even then, it is quite hard to do one of those $12 item endings. In that you get 6 normal events so you have more wiggle room to get $12, go to the shop and have 3 events left over, but it's still a little bit tight. Don't even consider for a moment that more than one of you per run is going to be able to do one of those endings, there's only so much room in the Library.

Apart from the $12 endings though basically all the endings are doable in the short version!
