Pretty much yeah, the runner still has to plan his two weeks pretty much to the minute and a whole lot of time save comes from optimizing menu navigation as time to evolve cars doesn’t pass on the menus.
Hugo One has a novelty run of San Andreas (novelty meaning it’s modded, e.g. Chaos Mod, Randomizer, and non-competitive because it’s not an actual category) that’s almost 70 hours long
If I recall correctly there are games like final fantasy where the world record is still 2 hours long
there are a lot of games that take over 24+hours to complete
I heard you like Baten Kaitos 100%?

Yeah…
I don’t even remember anything about that game but the twist.
I’m not sure why a 100% would take that long though.
Edit: Oh, right, the cards would evolve after a certain time, and one of them takes two weeks.
So the speed run is really just “how long does it take to get this one card.”

Man I honestly don’t get why anyone would try speedruning a game that takes 24+ hours to complete even if you skip half of the game
