Wait is that up to 100 hours assuming you don't skip through grindy things by holding ctrl? I know some games have repeatable things you do to grind up stats/resources and ctrl will skip through previously seen text which is something I've used multiple times before.

You play the game as intended and yes it can take up to 100 hours.
Your very weak at the start and the game is slow to get started making money.
You need money to grow and so on.
Text is one thing, it takes time to grow and make money you need to spend to grow bigger.

If you work through the whole story & take your time conquering fiefdoms, then waiting a while after taking them to let them settle down & troops + gold build up, build all buildings etc, before taking the next one, it will easily take you a good couple of days to finish the current continent. Possibly longer.
There is also side content with getting the conquered rulers back to the palace, either in the dungeon as sex-slaves, or in the palace as advisors (this gives advantages when conquering), then there are some tasks to complete to prove your worth before they'll let you bed them, I'd guesstimate there are a good couple of days, min of 48hrs+ actual time required.
I have been playing since close to the beginning & have easily clocked up circa 50-60 hrs, without skipping anything.

Hundred hours feels like a bit of an exaggeration. I started the game in mid November and it took maybe a week and a half to 2 weeks to conqueror every fiefdom and seduce every ruler at a pace of about 2-3 hours a day. I'd say it's around 30-40 hours
And I played the game as intended aside from me turning sexual assault and beastality off since I don't care for either of those kinks. It doesn't really take that long to gather gold since you can just keep skipping weeks.

Yes if you rush through all the content then you can get it done in 30-40 hours but if you take you time and use all the options you get after you build the buildings then it could take up to 100 hours of play.
Each player is different in how they play the game, or any game.

To be fair, he did say it can take that long. Not it will take that long.
No-one on the Steam chart has taken 100hrs, the longest is 50hrs & that's only 2% of all players.
I am in that 2%, with 50-60hrs played since the game 1st arrived on this site. So I could easily see someone taking quite a bit longer than that.
I feel like you really really doing something wrong if it takes you 100 hours. I was taking my time, but I can't imagine it would take a long as your saying for any reason unless you just straight up don't bother to move on to the next fiefdom. Even then I still can't picture it. It really doesn't take that long to manage the last fiefdom you conqueror. Once you do that there isn't really anything stopping you from moving on to the next one. 100 hours is a really long time even for a normal video game, games like this are shorter since it's mostly just reading. I could probably conqueror the entire British isles in crusader kings 3 or finish the entire main quest of skyrim in less time than that.

Like I said it can take up to 100 hours just depend on how you want to play.
You can rush through in 30-40 no problem and you can take your time and play as long as you want.
But I didn't rush is my point, like you have to be deliberately stalling for it to ever get to 100 hours and just spend several hours worth of game play not doing anything besides spending time with your wenches. 100 hours is "i've done most of the content in this AAA game" type long. Indie games and vns are pretty much never that long. It's like an insane exaggeration to make. I get your saying "it can take up that long" but you basically have to be either absolutely horrible at running your fiefdoms or spend several hours purposefully not progressing to get to that point. A normal person isn't going to get anywhere near that.
That just feels like a colossal exageration.
I'd say about 20-30 hours taking your time. Which is already pretty long.
Unless you take a 30 mn fap at every sex scene, in which case yeah it'll easily reach 100 hours, but while technically correct, I don't think it's how we measure game length usually.

What build are you using and what are you playing on?
Are you inadvertently rolling back? Do you see the "tips" dialogue?
The palace icon and the throne room's back button are in about the same place (on desktop). An extra click might have you hitting back, but it would be a few as the "tips" would need to be clicked through first...

Im sure it's asked often but is the game intentionally frustrating or am I doing something wrong? you have to have 20 troops to keep the settlements from burning down, but you need to empty each country of troops just to take a new one meaning even if you win the others have mobs that burn something... What am I doing wrong?

This is just one of the reasons I said this game could take up to 100 hours to play.
First you must build up to at least 20 troops and build all buildings then there is options you can use to help each state.
Keep 20 in each state until you need to attack the next one, that is once you got the stated looking good then do the mission for the next state and so on.
I leave 30 troops in the state I just took and moving 20 back to each of the states after taking one.
This helps make the state happy before you move on to the next one.

not really a solution more like a work around but use joiplay 1.20.410 and the plugin renpy 8.1.3_7.6.3_001
