Speedrunning a game is a challenge on itself, that is not part of the main game, like an achievement. Its to beat the game as fast as possible. There are different categories, in example abusing bugs is allowed or not or if the person has to 100% the game or just beat it as fast as possible. It’s an entire community and genre in itself to play all sorts of games like that, even massive role playing games!

I think the parent comment was being a bit fetishist.
