Battlefield Hardline Any% NG Speedrun World Record 2:35:25

0 deaths, couple of unnecessary detections and some sloppy gunfights lost me time. Some unnecessary inventory checking and xp gathering also cost me some time because I didn't know when I had unlocked certain things or what amount of xp I needed for something. This was a New Game run which means you need to start a completely new save with no unlocks. You also cannot skip the cutscenes at the end of episodes by immediately starting the next episode after losing control of your character due to it being a new save.

I've muted the audio during some cutscenes and at the start of Episode 10 because of copyrighted music playing in the game which you cannot disable for some stupid reason. "Fun" fact: this run has 36+ minutes of unskippable cutscenes between episodes and 20+ minutes during episodes, so if you were able to skip cutscenes, this run would've been somewhere under 1h 39min counting only gameplay and loading screens.
