Starfield hasn't even been out for a week, and a small community of early access players are smashing though the game is record time. The sci-fi RPG - expected to last the average players dozens if not hundreds of hours - is being smashed out in less than ten hours easy. One player has even clocked a sub-three hour run.
All of this info can be found in the Starfield speedrunning Discord server, a budding community slowly growing as a hub for all Starfield-related speedrunning strategies, techniques, discussion, and run recordings. Already, before the vast majority of players have even jumped into the game, tricks are being shared between the day one runners.
Currently the crown jewel of said Discord community is a run by user Micrologist - who posted their 2:51:42 time to the server and YouTube in the late hours of last night. In it, we can already see the parts of the game you can blaze through quickly, as well as the spots where things slow to a crawl.
