It does not seem easy to replicate this speedrun, it must have cost him to practice it.
For some time now it is common to see speedruns from practically any type of game, what is not at all common is to consider doing a speedrun from an open world role-playing game such as The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and finish it at the incredible two and a half minute mark. If there are those who spend half an hour just to decide the race and the haircut of their character.
As you can see below, this player managed to finish Oblivion in just two and a half minutes thanks to an aggressive plan to save and load games in specific areas that end up breaking the gameIn this way, he is able to skip entire areas and reach the end of the game in a matter of moments.
Specifically, it is that it breaks the area of the catacombs several times to get out of this initial area of the game as soon as possible and once in the city, he is somehow able to transport himself to the end of the game. This skips the open world experience and Oblivion story entirely, but what does that matter if the goal is to speedrun as fast as possible, right?
This same user has another Oblivion speedrun in which he completes the game in a traditional way, not like in this case. You can take a look you prefer not to break the game.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, went on sale in 2006 and is considered by many to be the best game in the series so far, above even Skyrim, which simplified its RPG formula to open to a more general audience. We will see if the speedruns manage to match this mark in the next Bethesda launches, such as Starfield, which will arrive later this year, or The Elder Scrolls VI.
