Yeah, I call bullshit on that claim.
Took me a lot, lot longer than that but then again I do read the dialogue.
But that's just me I guess.
That is not bullshit! Unless you play specific routes, the last couple updates are no more than a couple of renders, which are over really quick. Even the Same event can be short, if you never cared much for Sam and have low RPs with him.
I already commented earlier today that the artwork is great, but the rest sucks big time, so no need to repeat it.
But I doubt I can make you see AWAM for what it is, because if you think AWAM is the best game onsite, you are sorely mistaken! We have some great storytellers among the Devs here, which blow the joke AWAM´s story has become, out of the water within one chapters worth!
A couple of those off the cuff: "Pale Carnations"´ story is not for everyone, because it touches some pretty dark topics, but it is a coherent, well-written, memorable characters-filled crime story. There is a reason for it´s high ranking!
"Nothing is forever" has a friendship story with a lot of psychology woven in. Definitely different from the usual erotic games, but very nice.
"Good girl gone bad" and "Our red string" by the same author has massive branching with obvious very different storylines.
"Where it all began" and "Summer´s gone" both establish distinct, coherent characters you already care for more than any AWAM character in a crime/mystery story and one about recovery from serious loss.
"Midlife Crisis" might have a haremish storyline, but the humour, meme and the extremly well-told sex scenes are great.
"Above the Clouds" is one of the funniest VNs ever, a porn game spoof with a "Jürgen Klopp" lookalike in one of the main roles.
There more games one could mention, but I leave it at that.
