Speedrunning achievements requirement?

[Dion]

How fast do I have to beat the game in order to get the achievements and the ending screens? For both any% and 100%?

Does pausing pauses the timer?

I got the 100% "speed" clear in 5hrs 49 minutes, so it's at least the 6hr mark, maybe longer.

I didn't get it at just over 9 hours 100%, so you at least have an upper and lower cap.

That helps, thanks!

I got both any% and 100% win-screens in 3 hrs 32 min while playing on new game+ (don't know if this affects the required time, but maybe worth mentioning). So you probably have 4 hrs for any% and 6 hrs for 100%, which is rater generous compared to some of the time requirement in 1/2 Genie Hero.

As for pausing, I believe it does pause the timer (actually pausing that is, not just going into your map or inventory), considering I was doing it often in my playthrough.

Awesome! Gonna try to go for that time, thanks alot :)

I got the 100% speedrunning achievement at 4h20, but not the normal speedrunning achievement
based on other comments, I guess that speedrunning being below 4h is a save bet
(old thread but still on first google results page)

Also I can confirm that pausing (the one where you have the options, not opening the inventory) does freeze the timer. I got a visitor during chapter 2 or 3 and paused it for a hour or so and checked the time afterwards and it was still at 45mins

Question. Is it has to be on Definitive, Beginner and Legacy Modes to get those ending achievements? Because I doubt, you can do that on Rule Breaker and Full Deck modes, since it counts as cheating.
