I don't think she was trying to make the call longer though, she was very helpful and friendly and to me, it was evident she knew what she was talking about, like she actually played the game herself and could outright tell me exactly what I needed to do right away.
Another time I called to ask for something about Pokemon, and I got another lady who wasn't as sweet, just normal, and it was evident she was reading from a book and had no idea, that call was longer because of that.

Bro. I called and asked about how to enter the snow temple in Majoras Mask, and some lady answered and told me the exact method and I was so shocked. I imagined that she was a huge MM fan and had beaten the game 10 times and was passing on information from a veteran of the game when she probably just had a strategy guide in front of her.

As I said here >>8201884
That was probably the case with most of the people on those lines, but not the case with this girl, I don't think. She actually seemed super familiar with the game and to me it was obvious she wasn't reading any guide.
Either she was actually familiar with playing the game, or she had the full guide memorized and was a great actress.
