Twenty six hours for a remake is generous. I expected less content for a port.
Is the fifty hour completionist run realistic for finding all secrets or does it require a guide to hit that mark?
It is realistic. The original game has plenty of hidden items and side dungeons that take time to clear.
im gonna need a week off work for this 🤔
The delay to 2029 for a new mainline title confirms they are pouring everything into this project.
The original DS version was a 3D remake. This is technically a remake of the remake.
