I’m pretty sure yes. You kinda have to know which glitch goes where, what animation frames do what, etc before you can exploit them all for efficiency.
 
Put it this way. I’m not a speedrunner, but I still had to beat REmake 2 like 5 before I got down to memory puzzles, locks, directions, and which items are worth it and which aren’t before I could get the “Win in under 2 hours on Hardcore” achievement.

Have speedrunners beaten the games they speedrun the normal way multiple times?
 
Well… yes, but you probably don’t have to.
 
Speedrunning is a practiced skill. It doesn’t tell a person how good the player is at games or how many times they’ve finished it normally. A speedrunner is good at speedrunning, and usually speedrunning games they’ve practiced before.
 
You can jump into speedrunning before you even play the game proper, why not. If you’ve read the guides, watched previous speedruns and have more or less mentally mapped out your moves, then you can jump into a game for the first time and attempt to speedrun it.
 
However you most likely won’t speedrun a game blind when you first start a game you never even heard before.

How many games have you beaten this year so far?
 
For me, just one: Banjo-Kazooie. Beat it 100%.

If we’re talking about games from all years, I’ve beaten:
 
-Persona 5 Strikers  
-Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity  
-Left 4 Dead 2  
-Uncharted 3  
-Uncharted 4  
-Star Wars Episode I Racer
 
I think that’s it. I haven’t touched too many games this year.

And that’s about it. I’ve mainly been dedicating my time to Persona 5 Royal, which is a LONG-A## game.
 
I am close to beating RE Village though.

This year? Alone?  
…  
NONE.
 
I should revoke my gamer card. I cant believe it but I guess now I’m one of those guys to busy and too broke to game.
 
I feel sick. I dont want this kind of future for myself! I wanna play gaaaames!
