A Baldur’s Gate III player named Mae beat the massive RPG in just over 10 minutes.
The method can be seen below, but if you absolutely don’t want spoilers before embarking on your own adventure, Mae can beat the game very quickly by picking one of the Origin characters. By taking advantage of that character’s ability to leap forward, they enter into a conversation that shouldn’t happen until late in the game.
A dialogue option in this dialogue causes your party to end. It’s not a great ending, but it’s one of 17,000 ways you can end Baldur’s Gate III. Still, it’s impressive stuff, and will likely have speedrunners desperately trying to beat this time in the near future.
