Obligatory spoiler warning for the main story and other REDACTED things.
No mods, random seed, scavenger start. I realized while making this that another person, SCC, made a speed run and they used the in-game time while I was just using the time of the recording. Check out their speed run here:
• EPIC STARSECTOR SPEEDRUN | ANY% | FIRST ON...
My final time was 1:12:23 if you don't count character set up and loading and the time after I had integrated the Janus Device and finished the main quest and forgot to stop the recording. If you do count that then I guess it was 1:13:52 which is about 10 minutes faster then SCC whos video was 1:25:08.
BUT
I realize I am working off the time of the recording while SCC is working off the in-game time. If we use in-game time then they are still the WR holder. If not then that makes me the WR holder. If speed running ever did become a thing for Starsector then we would probably divide it between the in-game timer and an actual timer which means we're both WR holders.
That aside
This run was not optimized much at all. Lot of going over jump-points or moving to fast and not picking up quests and I ran into pirates which lost me a lot of time. I also couldn't find an uninhabited gate which really dragged things down near the end. But I got lucky with the old man who got me 17k at start and with finding 2 of the 3 probes right next to each other. If someone flies and menus better then me then I think a sub 1 hour is very possible especially if you get lucky never getting intercepted/gets good ships to get that 6sp early which allows you to blaze past the story.
