As was the case with other Bethesda role-playing games like The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim and Fallout 4, however, players quickly found ways to cut the fat.<\/p>\n<p>Micrologist&#8217;s video, which obviously contains Starfield spoilers so watch at your own risk, shows glimpses of the game&#8217;s main story but skips a lot too given Bethesda game director Todd Howard estimated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/starfield-main-quest-length-20-percent-bigger-30-40-hours\">it takes between 30 and 40 hours to complete normally<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The roughly three hour speedrun will no doubt be broken again and again going forward, especially once Starfield launches proper. Skryim, for example, has a speedrun record of 29 minutes and 42 seconds, while Fallout 4 sits at 53 minutes and 40 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>Starfield is perhaps the most anticipated video game release in recent memory and has therefore <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/todd-howard-interview-starfield-sgf-2023\">captured the attention of fans<\/a> in some other wild and wonderful ways. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/starfield-30fps-debate-has-people-talking-about-virtual-sandwiches\">Virtual sandwiches got people talking<\/a> about it being <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/bethesdas-todd-howard-confirms-starfield-performance-and-frame-rate-on-xbox-series-x-and-s\">locked at 30 frames per second<\/a>, for example, while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/starfields-esrb-rating-reveals-drugs-in-game-purchases-and-jetpack-sex\">an ESRB rating revealed drugs, in-game purchases, and jetpack sex<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/starfield-review\">In our 7\/10 review<\/a>, IGN said: &#8220;Starfield has a lot of forces working against it, but eventually the allure of its expansive roleplaying quests and respectable combat make its gravitational pull difficult to resist.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"divider\"><\/section>\n<p><em>Ryan Dinsdale is an IGN freelance reporter.
