Swear to whoever you like - you’ll find words and phrases created for one thing often apply to other things. But if we want to be pedantic, how bout this: I don’t trust Epic Games. They do not do anything for the sake of good, this included. Your logic fails here because this doesn’t spite Apple in the slightest. They still get their money.
I still check HLTB before starting any play through. My only gripe with it is the average time to beat always seems too low. Like these folks are speed running through it. Or maybe I’m just a slow gamer lol Either way I just add 20% to whatever the listed time is and that typically is accurate enough for me.
