How do people have such high game times?

Like a genuine question of mine, because as a casual, I finished the game with max social links besides one which was at 6, all social stats were max too. I’ve seen people who have beaten the game and it took them 100+ hours, but for me I beat the game in around 41:30 while listening to most dialogue (yes, at the beginning of my journey I Listened to all social links. I only skipped past moon and a few times for tower). There’s no intention of me saying “skill issue” or anything because it’s not. Everyone enjoyed the game at a different pace, but did I just kinda speed run the game without knowing it?
