The Outer Worlds Developers React to 12 Minute Speedrun

Co-Game Directors Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky love that people are speedrunning The Outer Worlds! So they took time out of their day to fully commentate over a full playthrough of their game. Luckily for them, speedrunner Creeperhntr can beat the game in less time than it takes to watch a TV show.

I love games where even the developer can say "Oh wow thats a cool way of doing that" because they don't put in tons of invisible walls and auto fails for doing things in a certain order.
