Time Played

Chart displaying Elven Legacy percentiles of time played for positive, negative, and early access reviews.

This chart displays the time players have spent in Elven Legacy, comparing positive and negative reviews. The time in game is not bad at all, with 24 hours in the 80th percentile.

The negative reviews play time is 4.1 times lower than the positive reviews median play time. When the negative review time is low (median : 122 minutes), it can be a sign that the game crashes on some systems or that players misunderstood the nature of the game (Does the Steam page clearly explain it, with gifs and a gameplay video ?). It can also mean that some players were somehow offended by Elven Legacy and decided to review it and get a refund under 2 hours. The Players' feedback section might give some insight about that.
