I assumed the first season would be about 10 hours; TLOU Part 1 on Story Mode (i.e. the gameplay parts are basically trivial and you're not spending a bunch of time rummaging for supplies or upgrading things or looking around but basically just progressing through the story) is about 15 hours.

Both things are acceptable (I have no idea what being a "grown ass adult" would have to do with it) and whatever you like is whatever you like; play your games however you want to get the most enjoyment you can from them. I just can't relate to why arbitrary "Hey, you've achieved X" thing that a developer put in would matter. But I don't really treat video games like a competition or finishing them as something to be achieved (any more than I would consider consuming any other media like TV or movies or books to be an achievement) so that's probably where the disconnect is for me. Any time I get a "trophy" in a game I'm basically annoyed that there's a pop-up accompanying it that's damaging immersion.
