That includes the campaign, side activities, and endgame content&#8211;something that Hamaguchi has experienced dozens of times for himself throughout the development of Revelation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is all part of the job; to ensure that players enjoy a smooth experience, the developers have to check every part of the game for any potential issues. &#8220;In a standard playthrough from beginning to end, if I were to review and check every single asset and element in the game, it&#8217;ll easily take over a hundred hours,&#8221; Hamaguchi said to GameSpot. &#8220;Obviously,\u00a0I can&#8217;t do that in each and every single playthrough. As the director, I don&#8217;t have enough time for that, so sometimes I would just\u00a0skip combat and\u00a0focus on checking the main story.\u00a0In different playthroughs, I\u00a0focus on different elements.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In total, Hamaguchi said he had completed 46 playthroughs by the time he was interviewed.
