Paradox makes strategy games that by nature take a long time to play, and which are designed for replay value. That 500 hours is spread over the course of owning the game, not just one playthrough.

You have a very strange definition of both “answering questions” and “satisfying.”

Psssst...so did Hillary.

Cool. How about paying some QA people while they’re at it?
