So, I've only played 3 proper visual novels from start to finish. Whereas CLANNAD had a "true" ending which can be considered "beating the game" proper, and Tomoyo After only had one real ending, the VN I'm currently playing, Kanon, is different.
Kanon is one of those VNs with different paths and no canon or true ending, so beating each route is considered beating the game, however, only one part of the entire game is shared between all routes, and then each route has its own length, which means that if I beat the game with Makoto's route, it's really not gonna be the same as beating the game for a second time doing Ayu's.
Given this, how should one approach marking these playthroughs as a "Replay"?

Thanks for the suggestions. I've decided to get rid of duplicated playthroughs and add any playthroughs done to get 100% completion of a game to the "additional notes" of the 1st playthrough.
It would be cool to be able to add multiple sub-playthroughs to a single one though, as some games, such as The Stanley Parable, require multiple playthroughs to actually even "complete" the game, and games like Resident Evil 4 HD or Postal 2 also require multiple playthroughs to achieve 100% completion, and it'd be cool to be able to log those without having your playing time duplicated.
What I meant with the stats is that if I log two different playthroughs, but both done to get 100% of a game, I'll probably put "Main story: 10h" and "100%: 20h" in one playthrough, and "Main story: 10h" in another one, but HLTB will make that 30h in the stats about total time played instead of just 20h.

So I have a question that's been bothering me for a while and I never cared to ask it, and it's probably been asked before but I couldn't really find it.
There are many games in which, in order to get 100% completion, you're expected to complete the game multiple times. For an example, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero has a campaign with 4 difficulty modes, and the game is technically 100% completed when you get all 4 medals, each one corresponding to a playthrough in each difficulty. There are games in which you can only get an achievement or unlockable after a second playthrough as well.
I'd like to know what's the best way to log these games, if I should log each playthrough and then mark either the first or last playthrough with the 100% completion time, or if I should only log it once and don't log any other playthroughs, or if it depends on every case. I feel like logging CS:CZ 4 times would be a tiny bit excessive, and adding the 100% completion time to a playthrough would multiply the stats on my account, which isn't a great deal but can be a bit annoying.
So, what should I do?

What would completion be considered as for this game? Is it completing the campaign in any difficulty, or in all of them?

So there's this game called "Hunter" released on Steam in 2019, and I want to add it to my "Playing" list but there's already a game called Hunter on the site, released in 1991. How should I proceed so that my playthrough of the 2019 game (once I'm done with it) doesn't interfere with the info for the 1991 game?

It's not that, some of my "completed" games got removed, and I had to add them back, so far I've only noticed that BOII and some GTAs are missing, but nothing else. Odd.

Hi.
Today I was looking to my playthroughs and I found that a lot of them are missing. I added Blacks Ops II recently and it's gone, some months ago I added some GTA games and they are gone as well.
What happened?

Games that made me cry?...
I can't actually remember any game that made me drop any tear, because this probably never happened to me, but the first two Telltale's The Walking Dead games did leave me a bit sad after completing them.
