If you're feeling bad about dying in Baldur's Gate 3's Honour Mode, don't worry—this speedrunner who beat it in under 40 minutes is about to make you feel way worse

Halsin, a druid from Baldur's Gate 3, looks very sad and despondent.

Baldur's Gate 3 has had a pretty active speedrun community, which shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone familiar enough with its more immersive-sim elements. There's the vaunted sex% speedrun, the any% speedrun which focuses on making Gale blow up as quickly as possible, and the "any% all acts" speedrun. Spoilers ahead, of course.

So, here's the deal. If you want the golden die reward for beating an Honour Mode playthrough without dying, you can't do that "Gale goes boom" strategy, since it finishes the game at Act 2. This means that any Honour Mode speedrun is, by definition, also an all acts speedrun. Them's the breaks.
