whats the point if you fail the game sure you got to the end but gain nothing I mean a speed run for me is at least for shooters and ones like them to beat the game and get everything along the way speed running an rpg would be suicide xD

There are actually many RPG's you can speedrun. In fact the old Final Fantasy 9 game actually even had a bonus if you got to the last dungeon in a certain time limit.
Personaly i find it more fun to speedrun a RPG since many end up going underleveld to certain boss fights ending up having to relly on strategy rather then grinding.

Funny. But the person who made this missed the point of a speedrun. If you can't get one of the good endings it's pretty much just a failed game. Now a speedrun of the Mega-Playboy ending would be fun.

But in that case it wont be a Speedy run. It will take huge time! I do think its pointless to do this without participating in the game. But whats the point of speed run anyway?
Is it running a game only or playing it too?

Speedruns are really just there for fun and bragging rights. It's mostly for people who have already played the game so many times that there is really nothing new to see. They can then challenge themselfs by trying to beat the game as fast as possible.
But like i said. Unless you are actually trying to win. You are not really doing a proper speedrun.
