A Baldur's Gate 3 speedrunner has beaten the game’s formidably tough Honour mode in under 20 minutes, as part of a valiant crusade against the very idea of video games taking less time than it takes one of your grandparents to persuade their body to leave a comfy armchair.
Whether it’s managing to bed Lae’zel in a fashion that even one of Larian’s romance quest designers thinks is cool or finding a way to rapidly get it on with Halsin in bear form, if you aren’t familiar with BG3’s speedrunning community by now, I’m not quite sure what to say. That is, aside from the phrase ‘what this latest work of art and tell me how you feel about how crap you are at Larian’s RPG in comparison’.
Following on from fellow runner Chronos’s efforts to make everyone who’s tried the mode re-evaluate their talents, Mae’s casually become the first person to coast through it in less than twenty minutes. Their official time was 19 minutes and 32 seconds, a nice little improvement on the 21 minute and 17 second run they notched just a couple of weeks ago.
