A look back into my journey through The Legend Of Zelda Breath of The Wild. (1 Year Anniversary)

[@AriesMoon622]

I love that Dee went from “it’s one of those games I guess I never felt attracted to” to “I fucking love this game” when he got the master sword, to legit crying when he finished the game & the credits rolled. That just speaks volumes about how incredible BOTW is and the kind of effect it has on people. ❤️ I’m so, so glad I found DeeBeeGeek through a random KZbin recommendation. He’s now my favorite streamer!

[@keithd3448]

Seeing the emotions I had playing this game AMPLIFIED in someone who has never played anything in this series before really just feels great.

[@JeremyLambright]

I miss the moments of the Parry Gods and the Billys and the Georges and the "Raviolis Gail is now ready" interruptions.

[@samster4815]

Deebee is who got me through lockdown! One of the worst depressions of my life…thank you for giving me something to look forward to and a community to be apart of ❤️

[@perritoshido5845]

Hope you are feeling much better nowadays!

[@sbadenhorst]

He's our DeeBeeBalm! Makes things better!

[@Shreyas0324]

BOTW is the reason I subscribed and it was the best decision I’ve ever made. I’m truly very thankful to be a part of the wonderful community. thank you Dee for all of the positivity you give. You make my day Dee. I’ve been having a rough year but with your content I’ve been able to get through and it has helped me tremendously. Take care Dee, I hope nothing but positivity and happiness enters your life. 🙏🏼 ❤️

[@lunavox5707]

Same!

[@althea7181]

SAMEEEE. Then i stay for Kingdom Hearts lol

[@KillSchwill]

Same! Started watching when his first BOTW episode was uploaded to KZbin. Then later subscribed to his twitch. Truly a remarkable and enjoyable streamer. Keep up the great work my dude!

[@EskChan19]

That "Haha, this is a common trope Open World Games do where you're supposed to go 'holy shit how big is this map?' and every game does that and HOLY SHIT HOW BIG IS THIS MAP?!" always gets me.

[@clarkside4493]

It feel weird that this happened a year ago, but (as of writing this) Dee is already through Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and working on Twilight Princess. It's been really fun watching someone else understand and appreciate this series as much as the rest of us.

[@pseudoromantik187]

DeeBeeGeeks Reactiosn were the best thing back then. Seeing these Games through the eyes of someone who will become a Nintendo Game Lover ❤️ Makes me feel comfortable 😁

[@bishopdile5984]

i just wanna see the moments when herealized all the reference to previous games, like names, locations or characters

[@RyuBlue]

Yeah it would be fun for him to go back and do Master Mode, Trial of the Sword, etc. and start seeing those connections. Though DeeBee is getting a bit of those moments playing through the other Zelda games. Like when he realized in his last Twilight Princess vid where he was when he got the Master Sword. "Oh my God, this is the Temple of Time!"

[@pob808]

I'm a 46 year old bloke who started with a Spectrum. I've owned nearly every system since and your BOTW journey encompasses everything I love about video games. You become part of the story and your enthusiasm shined.

[@zenath3125]

no you are just a gamer like all of us with a young spirit

[@ulisesv.4355]

I've literally cried, this game hits me every time, and remembering DeeBee's journey too. 👏

[@buddyman1990]

I did another playthrough during lockdown and played along with Deebeegeek as in I would watch his videos on my phone while playing the Switch. Thanks for helping me get through that lonely time man!

[@TheLegendryZelda]

Funny fact I was the guy that told him to go into the chamber where Link slept to get that Deku Seed in his stream it was worth seeing his face 🤣

[@EthanMastercrafter]

The fact that I could take part in this journey, witnessing the growth of a new-born Zelda player and seeing things from a perspective though done many times... I can say that it was certainly an exhilarating ride from beginning to end

[@jmw__]

I just happened to see this guy on my recommended when he uploaded the first ep of botw. I thought “oh cool a PlayStation guy trying Nintendo stuff. Why not…” Best decision of my life. And look how far he’s come. Here’s to another year of awesomeness Dee :)

[@NueThunderKing]

I think most of us started this way, I was curious to see a Playstation fan experience the Zelda franchise and it hasn’t disappointed to see that it is not nostalgia what keeps us coming back, they are truly amazing games on their own.

[@jmw__]

NueThunderKing exactly! And the fact that he started with botw and not the classics adds a fresh new perspective. It really makes his other play throughs very unique

[@starblazer237]

YEAH THE BEE SCENE FROM THE DLC!! It's my favourite scene from your entire series because it looks like Link just has a heart attack and dies while running Also, the scene where Link puts the picture on his wall is perfect. I don't cry much in Breath of the Wild, but that scene always gets me

[@charmel052930]

I remember I just started playing BoTW myself when I was looking for some guides on certain quests on YT, and I got recommended one of Deebee's videos instead, and clicking on it was one of the best decisions I made. It felt like playing alongside a friend who made fun banters as he explored the world of Hyrule. I looked forward to every single BoTW stream and stayed up even if I had work at 6am the next day 😂 the best part of this Zelda journey is not only have I found my comfort streamer, but also one of, if not the best and most wholesome community ever! 😭❤️ The DeeBeeGang is really something else ❤️ thank you for sharing your BoTW and all your other Zelda journey with us, Dee! ❤️ Great, now I'm crying 🥲

[@randomyoutubeuser261]

This was the best Video game playtrough i have ever expierenced

[@shadowfire_08]

2:14 it was at this moment his life was changed forever 🙌🔥🍻 what a journey bro! must have found you a couple streams into BOTW & all the Zelda streams since. BOTW, Ocarina, Majora & Twight so far; Wind Waker & Skyward Sword are gonna be cool since they’re much different than what you’ve played so far

[@asura2025]

Why does this feel so nostalgic even if it was just 1 year ago ? Man you have really submerge in this amazing journey that is the franchise of The Legend of Zelda

[@JoeNerdShow]

Arpil 15 2024.. just finished watching. and still can't belive this game was annouced in 2017!

[@TheLoreSeeker]

What a journey its been! And more adventure ahead! Till the Twilight Curtain rises and the we conquer the seas and the skies!!!

[@ShadowSkyX]

You ever notice - i think its waterblight - has a very similar head piece to one of the fused shadow pieces?

[@GarroshTV]

This playthrough was the first time i watched any of your videos, later then your streams. At this point i watch your Zeldastreams Weekly. You are the only person im subscribed to on twitch and the only person i ever donated something (at least 30 gifted subs at this point) Thank you for giving us the Joy of reliving the Zelda Series aswell as other awesome adventures!

[@spaghetti3406]

“So, I can move stuff now... with my MIND.” That always gets me

[@Lale__Ortiz]

Awww... 1 year so far? This was the very one and only reason why i started to following you

[@Arphix]

A year ago when youtube recommended me your first video. I was pretty sure I'll see a douche bad mouthing Nintendo and the series and whatnot. How wrong I was back then. I even wrote a similar comment witch you put a heart on it (it may not be much, but it meant something for me) by the time of your second video, I subscribed to your channel and started following your journey, relieving the awesome moments that this game provided and adding something more over it. Adding a feeling akin to sharing a fun experience with a friend and along with the community, a sense of belonging. Then came Thanksmas and the amazing gathering of the community and also the Irish cancer society stream you did. Weeks after weeks the more you delved into the series, the more fun it was catching some hints or lore from BotW. I said it before and I'll say it again, you are a good man and you have a good soul, having someone like you to lighten up the mood once in a while is truly appreciated. I wish you and Deebeegirl the best along to all the community. Keep up the good work ^^

[@mischarowe]

For the community that just keeps on giving.

[@nicolesvariouswares]

This was the reason I subbed. Zelda has been such an important part of my life, and breath of the wild was able to so beautifully wrap everything I loved about the series together into a truly beautiful experience. Since I can’t experience the series for the first time anymore, seeing you go through everything and reacting in similar ways to it that I did has allowed me to sort of relive the times I spent as a child playing Zelda (both alone as something I did as an escape and as something I bonded with my brother over) again. I’ll always adore this series, and it makes me so happy to see other people enjoy it and get excited for it too. You and PointCrow are the ones I enjoy the most out of everyone I’ve seen try Zelda for the first time (and there are quite a few I’ve seen lol), because of how clearly invested in the stories and characters you get, and it is such a great feeling to be able to see my favorite stories make other people happy. There’s so much more for you to see about hyrule, and I can’t wait to see all of it!

[@Arphix]

I feel you! Those games have been a part of my life too. I have a love for ALTTP that can't be put into words. The music of that series is extremely meaningful too. ^^

[@mmmario8004]

Same!

[@heatherjackson1325]

I've been a zelda fanatic for over 22 years, there's no game series that I could possibly love more. I recently found you and I've watched you play every zelda game to this day. You're reactions are so raw and pure, I was so happy for how much success you gained on the last stream of BOTW. You're doing such a great job, and I'm so happy for all you've accomplished so far, you deserve all the love in the world!

[@TM521HS]

I miss blucas and billy😭

[@QwixLF]

Has it really been a year already? And there's yet so many franchises yet to see, so many games yet to play. It's a wonderful life.

[@YusukeShirogane]

This is when i discovered DeeBeeGeek. This was a great series!

[@mumboexeyeye4240]

I still clearly remember, I had never even heard of this channel. Out of nowhere my brother sent me the video that started with Dee's reaction to the great fairy. Just that "I have more rupees.", and I was hooked. Thanks for all the good memories DeeBeeGeek. Looking forward to many more.

[@swawo509]

This is going to be super nostalgic, can't wait!

[@leontriestomeme9712]

"DeeBeeGeek... Remember... Try to remember..."

[@randomyoutubeuser261]

I truly feel lucky to have been born in a time where i was able to expierence this amazing journey

[@sariassong3329]

Bawling my eyes out, how am I so nostalgic about a point in time where life was so uncertain and scary! Most of us were out of jobs and unable to socialize with loved ones, THANK YOU for bringing us together and letting us in on your first play though of a Zelda game!

[@wargame7209]

the start of a journey to praise chickens and fear keeses, I'm proud of you dee

[@AlessaParker]

I first found you through Attack on Titan reactions years, years, YEARS ago then found you again for your BoTW playthrough. you're truly one of my favorite streamer/gamer/KZbinr man :D

[@polarity345]

I'm so glad I watched you on your journey through this. As a Nintendo fan I'm glad you also picked up Xenoblade, Metroid and dabbled a bit in Smash too. I admit there were times where you went in clueless and had a shit eating grin or dread on my face. But you got through it all and went with it with curiosity and delight. Now lo and Behold! Four games later and Hyrule warriors! You're on your way my good sir! I just want to say thank you for trying something new and for putting a smile on my face. Thank you!

[@michelleo8499]

Rewatching all of the moments makes me wish you’d play it again so I can watch again.

[@themiddlecaterpillar8350]

It's been more than a year that your gaming journeys are accompanying me... During lockdown, your videos cheered me up.... KH,Botw, classic 3D zelda, Xenoblade(personal favourite) and Metroid ...watching every series of yours is like reliving a distant memory... And I can't tank you enough for that See you on Monday DeeBee.....

[@sigarenboer]

Because of this serie I found this man as recommended on my KZbin feed, can’t stop watching his great reactions after that!

[@thechaosgoblin]

First Twitch streamer I ever watched regularly ❤️ Rewatching the experience has made me even more excited for BOTW2.

[@tpot7665]

Made me cry watching this again, thank you, off to play it from the start again xx

[@GonzaloTong]

My very first video of yours was your first ever Breath of the Wild video, and man, was it a journey! I honestly treasure the whole series - it literally felt like a journey. Oh, sweet memories!

[@TiKayStyle]

Sadl< I watched two Let's Plays before I bought the game 2 years later and played it. For BOTW2 I never look at solutions or something, I don't want to be spoiled so I can have the same intense and emotional experience as you. Thanks for this journey video!

[@Gingerjake1]

This just brought back nostalgia when there was nothing to do and you seen someone playing your favourite game for the first time and it makes you experience your first memories with the game with someone you’ve never even met or seen and just brings up a big smile on my face and the lockdown helped with that just binge watching all the videos after getting my whole family downstairs just to say “Dee Bee Geek is on guys everybody come down!” And they did the memories though honestly

[@cuddelicious]

Watching you fall in love with the Zelda franchise has been amazing to watch. I played as a child with Ocarina of time but then fell away from it when I got older. BOTW brougt me back to all the things I loved about this series. It's been a pleasure to watch and I can't wait for BOTW 2

[@NyxYT005]

I completed this game in 2019 and boy after watching deebee complete it made me cry tears of Nostalgia. As expected of Game of the year 2017 title that this game deserves. Loved the walkthorough and your reactions. Legend of Zelda is Not a game but a Story so beautiful that it feels real.

[@Cageheart2]

The series that got me hooked on your channel. :')

[@juanjosedelpinorivas7099]

Shield surfing sure surprised him a lot. I can't wait for the sequel.

[@catty4009]

Wow so it’s been a year since I started looking for botw let’s play on youtube. Instantly subscribed after the first vid and thoroughly enjoyed your Nintendo journey, Dee!

[@ChryptoCrystal]

I loved this throwback compilation SO much

[@bellbup1014]

BOTW and this first video is what made me subscribe to Twitch. Good memories, good times.

[@moonsliced5233]

When lockdown happened i got so lucky, one of my favorite youtubers started playing my past and present favorite games one after the other. Halo, Gears and Botw. Seeing you experience all of these and loving every second of me just kept me going, you the best Dee. Cant wait to see you play Botw 2 and Halo infinite

[@PerseusM76]

Thanks again for the journey. Bro, this series was one of,if not the, best series on KZbin.

[@ceraunah]

Is it weird that I feel nostalgic about this? I’ve been around here ever since that first video came out here on KZbin, and I’ve gotta say, between all the Zelda and Kingdom Hearts content, watching your channel has been one of my best experiences on this site. To be able to re-experience my favorite game ever, as if for the first time again, is truly something special, something I’m legitimately thankful to you for providing GOD now I wanna rewatch all those videos lol

[@kaiserxblue]

Dear DeeBee, i'm so glad you had the oportunity to play this masterpiece. Also I'm glad that Zelda was the one to open once again to the world of Nintendo, like now you are playing Metroid and Xenoblade, I really hope you give Mario or Fire Emblem or any other big nintendo game a chance. There are so many gems there waiting for you and I mean it, they've waiting for the likes of you to enjoy and entertaint us at the same time. Thanks for fun I had you playing and talking with us on the streams. Know that you were the first twitch streamer that I've ever follow and I'm glad I did.... Anyways, cheers mate, i hope i get to see you play more Nintendo games.

[@Mr.G_717]

Dang. Taking it back to how I found you. We came along way and made many friends along the way. Can't wait for you to play Dread

[@cutelilpenguin85]

The first video I saw of his, and now I subscribe *thumbs up*

[@dydouux]

Then, it's been 1 year since i'm subscribed to your channel. Seeing you play Breath Of The Wild made me so happy. And after you were playing Kingdom Hearts. My two favorites series of games. Thanks you for what you do. I'm so happy watching you playing. Love you, really. Excited to see what's coming next! Hope you are happy and don't forget to take care of yourself. Again, love you and thanks you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@dachking6657]

Just wanted to say that I’m a huge Zelda fan, and was intrigued when a video by a random guy I’ve never seen before titled “PlayStation guy plays his first Zelda Game!” was recommended to me. This was one of my favorite series to watch, and you, Deebeegeek, are one of my favorite entertainers on the internet. You were introduced to the Nintendo world by us, and you actually introduced me to the PlayStation side (Dear God I loved FFVII R in particular). Thanks, man. I’m glad that you can officially call yourself a Nintendo guy at this point, originating from the guy who was interested in Breath of the Wild but wasn’t really sure about it because he didn’t know anything about Zelda. You’re awesome.

[@EdensukoV]

The most wholesome content from 2020.

[@lukasmihara]

Oh, all those beautiful memories! This was so wholesome :) What a fantastic journey. I'm looking forward to more! Take care, DeeBeeGeek! REVALI'S GALE IS NOW READY!!

[@Nat_the_Chicken]

Wow, Ravioli ruins the mood again... every time.

[@metta5105]

So Many memories, botw was not only a game, it was a travel, that you as player did alongside with link, you experimented a lot of new things, happyness, sadness, fear, surprise and a lot of more things as you made you journey, discovered things, learned some more and discovering New experiences, so, in that way, we can say, that you Also did that travel Congrats deebeegeek, you might have completed this journey, but Theres a lot more to come!

When I saw and heard you saying "I was Link" inmediately, when on twitter and told you to google "why link is called Link in The Legend Of Zelda" It was a great experiences whatching you play my favorite franchise. Cant wait to see the next episode of Twilight princess which is huge and Wind Waker.

[@jesusurzua3988]

Loved rewatching you again experiencing a Master piece.

[@HackWeight]

Congrats on an amazing year of Zelda and more! Thanks for giving us all the great content and keep on being your kind, generous, fun-loving self. To many more videos to come!

[@finncoleman697]

You know what, I had nothing to do recently in my free time (besides when you're streaming) so I'm gonna rewatch this series, from the start, because the nostalgia is already real after only a year :D love you! I hope you're doing well and Deebeegirl too, thank you for amazing content and making us all feel like we have a great friend to just hang out with

[@halami2149]

I love that he got emotional at the end. That’s what I love about Zelda games, is how emotionally attached you get to them, or any game that can do that. Pretty much all the Zelda games have that

[@ephemerald5]

omg i remember all these moments, this was so much fun to watch the full journey like this. the memories of when i first subbed, these videos were always there for me to make my day better. thank you so much deebeegeek ❤️

[@dannybirman6937]

First stream I saw of yours was Ocarina of Time's Forest Temple earlier in February. Went back to YT and watched everything else. Gotta say, all ur streams have been highlights of my week throughout the year. Real glad you found BOTW bro.

[@luancarlosdesouzaquirino3182]

Man, this is shuch a low blow. I crying here. I found your channel accidentally last year and strated to watch you play Breth of Wild, that was one of the best things that happened in 2020, a year that was really really bad for me. I've became your fan because I saw your love for The Legend of Zelda to grow up as you played through. This is just great, I can't describe how I am grateful for you to make my bad days happy and how I fell happy to see you falling in love with a video game franchise that has always been my favorite. You're awesome, man. Thank you!

[@lysanatt]

Thank you, DeeBee from the bottom of my heart. You saved us all in these dark times, not just Zelda, with your positivity, even in the midst of your own battles with health. With your humour, silly ideas, your wonderful, thoughtful charity events and generosity you were the light, too. Here's to many more years, enjoying Legend of Zelda and other games, and not least, the fantastic DeeBee Community. Love from Lýsa, AKA EeveeAteMyEssay

[@lacrymouprising5295]

Wow! Can’t believe it’s been a whole year since i know about your KZbin Channel, in a way i feel like it’s been so long since i know you but in an other i feel like it’s been two weeks.. Hey, your stream were there when i was living the best days of my life but also the worst, i can’t thank you enough for all the good Times with you and the chat but i just hope all of you will be more happy than ever!

[@Tonette926]

There's still many content you can do for this game like doing side quests. The Tarrey Town side quest is cool you should make a content about it.

[@Kahnah23]

Oh that reminds me of my journey of stumbling across on of the first parts, going back to watching the previous ones, then to await each new one with excitement and finally, to spent an entire sunday watching the final stream. Those were good times because even though I played the game the second it came out, you managed to capture the magic of it! Thank you so much for that!

[@KenjiKussano]

Valeu!

[@robinwestrick2270]

So glad to follow u through all of this wild journey...no pun intended frfr

[@pellaeon1877]

I remember finding your first Zelda video in my recommendations, and I’ve been watching everything you make since. Thanks for the wild ride, Dee! Edit: Oh, and your videos are what got me into Halo! Many thanks!

[@carterwilliams1556]

As somebody who’s been aware of your content and reactions for years, I have to say that stumbling onto your first stream of BotW and watching it live was one of the most entertaining and fulfilling things to watch. From that first moment looking at the world, to that first time you parried a guardian beam, I knew this would be an amazing playthrough. And you certainly didn’t disappoint. Just wanted to say thanks for your constant cheer and the good times you bring on stream and in your KZbin content as well. I look forward to seeing you play the sequel next year!

[@SodorValleyProductions]

Your journey through Breath of the Wild was absolutely incredible. Seeing how far you’ve come now with the Legend of Zelda series, and Nintendo as a whole, has been something I’m truly glad to say I can witness. Never stop being the gamer you are Dee. You’re an incredible individual bringing joy to many people around the world. Looking forward to that journey through the Breath of the Wild sequel when it releases. There’s nobody else I’d rather watch play that game.

[@Devilay]

Thank you for the amazing BOTW journey, Deebee! I subscribed your channel since that time and it’s glad to see you become a Zelda fan! I’ve watched your Zelda series gameplay too, love your reaction so much. Thank you, can’t wait for your next Zelda journey!

[@ReaderViaNil]

I love this game, and i love your take on it. It was really frustrating at times seeing you stumble over puzzles that have been series staples for years, or miss the many references, but your fresh take and genuine drive to have fun make up for it in spades. I found your channel through this run, and it was a damn good find. 10/10

[@jimmysmith5418]

I SMASHED THE SHITE OUT THAT LIKE BUTTON #DEEBEEGEEK !! Ahh the memories!!❤️❤️ love billy 🐐

[@rebirth020506]

I remember each one of these moments!!!! Your playthrough did what I thought was impossible, allowed me to experience BoTW for the first time...again. So blessed to have found your channel!!!! Well done good Sir!! 👏🏽🙏🏽

[@ojhat]

As someone who learned of you through happenstance coming across your very first BotW stream on Twitch, but never was able to keep up and watch everything at the time, this was very enjoyable to see this compilation of your journey.

[@HazelNutz07]

I can't wait to see you go bananas at BotW2 next year!

[@jay.atkinson]

Still emotional to watch Dee Bee thanks for the memories and fun too. I noticed for the first time the point of light expanding left and right starts the story as Link wakes up and also marks the point Zelda puts a cap in Calamity Ganon and seals him away. Very cool.

[@MadGear1986]

This was a real pleasure to watch! Loved the video and loved your playthrough of this game.

[@shimshawcreamtime2845]

I remember binge watching all these videos when I thought I had COVID back in November this series got me through a lot of the boredom of those two weeks you’ve easily became my favorite KZbinr since then.

[@Mega-Prime]

I can't believe I found you on a whim. I'm a Smash Bros player and I found you when you first reacted to Smash Bros. character trailers and then I saw you playing botw and I was really glad you got into Zelda and I'm so glad your experiencing my favorite Zelda game now (Twilight Princess) so glad KZbin recommended me you are a blessing to us so glad your here. Thank you

[@422katieleigh]

I’m so glad you made this. I came to your channel through your Ocarina of Time videos then literally would fall asleep at night to your Breath of the Wild videos. It’s lovely to see the journey again compiled together.

[@williamblack2904]

Just remembering the contrast between how he started, versus the fight with Gannon and the invasion of Hyrule Castle where DB went absolutely apeshit on everything like a true hero of time.

[@jeffstarliper9557]

Lol too funny I had many of the same sick and twisted remarks as you. Thanks for the memories I forgot about.

[@jaenuchiha]

No, we must thank YOU for the awsome journey that was following you as you dive into the amazing world that was and still is BOTW. It was fun, it was emotional, it was amazing. Very few players of this game have made me laugh so much as I did with you. I love your goofy personality, the way you interacted with the whole enviroment of the game. I think we can all agree that the content you've gifted us with was one of the most memorable experiences we've had. At least, that's true for me. I love you, DeeBee. I hope to see you on a new journey once BOTW 2 comes out. Lots of love from Spain.

[@z33chie]

My favourite series on youtube.

[@fedelrajijoshi7335]

Playing botw for first without knowing any Zelda or about the game is the one of the best gaming you can get

[@dragontamer626]

What an amazing journey. I was in hysterics at the start as you made all the mistakes we first made as rookies. Watching you grow into a Zelda hero and your passion and love for the game was one of the few great things of 2020. Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@cath1238]

This video is making me pretty emotional. Last year was hard, and not just for covid, because of my job too, and your Breath of the Wild videos really brought happiness and light to my days. I am so grateful for them and all the hard work you put into them!

[@morganc4920]

Dude I love this almost as much as I love Zelda. You need to make a vid like this chronicling your entire Zelda journey!... Also. don't skip out on the 2d Zeldas once you finish up the 3d ones
