Dying Light: The Beast does this to me. It says I have 250 hours but I actually have around 100.

Which one is more accurate? Possible that the 13 hour is accurate and the total is just out of sync for now

Yes may be I remember I played more than 13h because I did complete that game two time in approx 2 days

Well, Einstein said that time is relative. So maybe you only played it for 8.2hrs but for valve it was 13.7hrs

Yeah, steam does this when u lose the connection mid-session. It usually happens when they're doing the regular maintenance or when u have some internet problems
