So,I hate to ask,because this is a really,REALLY,stupid question. But,if I did a run and just used the in game time,would that count as a legitimate run?

Alright,thanks guys for the info. ?

So,I decided to try and speedrunning Dishonored 2,but the load screens are absolute hell on my time. Can I pause in between game play and loading screens, or would that make the run void?
