Released on the Steam gaming platform on August 3, the game is developed by Laran Studio. Inside Baldur’s Gate 3which is a role-playing game, the player finds himself in a fictional medieval and fantasy universe of the Forgotten Realms, and has his character evolve in a highly elaborate setting.
The game, which takes place in three acts, was designed to last around 35 hours if the player follows the main story, and over 96 hours if the player follows the full story. Therefore, “speedster” Mae wanted to circumvent the rules. And for that, she chose the character named Gale, known mostly for his very high and powerful jumps.
finish as soon as possible
During her fast-paced adventure, Mae detected a glitch of sorts in the game, a false ending that can be triggered at the end of Act 2, only possible when the player assumes the role of Gale. So Mae ran throughout the beginning of the game, running and jumping as fast as she could as she dodged enemies and cutscenes. She then made it to the end of the second act and only had to make a decision during a conversation that led directly to one of the game’s endings.
This speedrun is part of the “Any%” category, which is just getting to the end of the game without worrying about main or side quests. A record that has something to attract other competitors since Baldur’s Gate 3 achieved the second best start when it launched on Steam in early August.
