The video is out. Short and sweet. Very excited for them to see my run!

There's actually a ton more tricks I use in the All Quests speedrun category (2:24:10 world record) that I wish they could see!

Nice. I remember all of those mouth breathers who gave you shit for not contributing to the spirit of Early Access by speed running. Now you are communicating more directly with developers than they ever will. 😂😂😂

They need to see how broken the game is in its current state. Would be nice if they looked at other runs as well.

It is EA after all and speedrunners glitchin even fully released titles. Personally, I admire this type of commitment, they know the games better than most people.

Annoyed as hell over the constant multiple threads about the same topic you make, but watching this video and seeing you exploit the glitches was utterly hilarious.

Confirmation bias? I do not see this as broken. Its your $$ pay how you want. This run does not affec t my game in the slightest way.

I'd say that being able to skip triggers by jumping (which the devs point out in that vid) is problematic in itself, whether it is done or purpose or not, since it could cause potential bugs down the line. If you play for the first time, you won't know where those triggers are and so you might not even notice something went wrong. Cutscene triggers are buggy as they are. For example, I've had the entire party "stuck" in dialogue mode once, because a cutscene started even though the characters that were supposed to talk were not close enough to actually talk. Couldn't even exit the game to menu.

It's a cool gimmick, but the developers shouldn't waste time on speedrunners.
