Hello, im looking to start speedrunning The Outer Worlds on the switch, i wanna do any%, anyone have any good starting tips and tricks?

I realize I'm 5 months late but here goes: Watch the record console run and the record PC run, and maybe a few others. Take notes of what they do, what works, and what doesn't. Read the documentation for running, there's an Excel file in the guides section. Also consider joining the discord.

Running on console will have different tricks and tips than PC, for instance in handling the goethermal plant. On switch, you'll need to kill some robots before routing power away from Edgewater because they'll be agro'd. On PC they sneak out and back on to reset robot agression because loading screen times are removed, but that doesn't work.

Basically, watch the runs, and then copy them. Innovate if you see something done in a less-than-optimal way, but in general copying the top runs will give you a solid base.
