Just go back in time until you're ready to defeat the apocalyptic threat.
>rush the main quest to stop the apocalyptic threat>game tells me I need to do 17 side activities first before the next step of the main quest unlocks
Because a real time limit is unfun and will cause most people to just drop the game.
>>736939104Maybe the people who drop the game are retards.
>>736939224Maybe the people who put time limits in games are retards.

>>736938838>>entire game is centered around preventing an apocalyptic threat>you can choose "not my problem" and play through the events in real time
