Saw this in chat at 1:44:14 - "I am the bone of my bridge. Trees are my body and bridges are my blood. I have created over a thousand bridges. Unknown to death, nor known to life. Have withstood pain to create many bridges. Yet those hands will never hold anything. So as I pray, Unlimited Bridge Works." Based.

Great chat message, great comment, great reference

[@NoahAlbrecht]

I heard someone describe Zelda and Link as “Autism girlie and her feral bestie”

[@LunarPegasus75]

Seeing Alpha's fixation on log bridges this stream was so fun. I hope we get to see him play more ToTK eventually.

[@Irish_Enderman]

I love the detail of the character intro titles being what link would see them as, Rauru is "The Source of the Right Arm" because, at that point that's all that Link knows about him Also, as a guy with long hair, I love link's new hairstyle

ive been waiting for this vod for SO long.

[@dwightfitch3120]

Didn’t the game come out only about 3 months ago?

[@bennapier1897]

I hope we get to see him play the entire game

[@gaminggaming.6071]

I hope we get to see him fucking pay for what he did

[@kirby47897]

well this stream happened in may, sooo we just need to wait for all of it to be edited

[@danielbensch1663]

new here?

[@KingOfRNG]

@@kirby47897well this didn’t age well

[@GamingWithUncleJon]

there are no wrong solutions in TotK. There are only obvious solutions and less obvious solutions.

1:28:02 “It’s a portable bridge!” Stormlight Archives reference

[@powerhousejp]

I know this replay is months old, but I changed the VA to Spanish when I played, and it was worth it for the rehydrated Ganon alone. 💯💯

[@tomveldkamp518]

'Suavemente'

[@FerdinandvonAegir]

I've rewatched this as background noise several times, and I've gotta say... the entire sequence from 2:12:11 to 2:13:00 always gets me. The first time I saw it, I was actually tearing up from laughing too hard. I need more Alpha TotK content. He truly embodies the kind of "why use the intended solution when I can find something -stupid- _funny_ that works even better" mindset that this game is all about.

[@shadowoflugia]

I’m in the first hour of this playthrough, and I’m already finding myself yelling at him to pick up EVERYTHING 😂😂😂 (ALL monster parts, ALL food)

[@dwightfitch3120]

Why are so many players so damn impatient when they don’t immediately understand something. Like they’ve never played this kind of game before?

[@lillybuggin]

please play more of this lol

[@NoahAlbrecht]

The Kass theme at the start of stream was rough, rip

[@rainswamptear8656]

This is the only acceptable way to play tears of the kingdom. ALL HAIL BRIDGE

[@wyattsmith6659]

Now that I think about it, with the new formula of how they did this game they brought back the dungeon crawling aspect that Alpha wanted from the first game

Thanks! I was lost

[@shurikenstormX]

I need someone to go through this and count how many times Alpharad says the word "bridge". I would do it but I think I'd go insane...

[@CrunchytheGoblin]

I bet I could beat Alpharad in a foot race

[@loonzoldick]

Alpharad has requested for his name and the word "foot" or "feet" to not be present in the same conversation 😂

[@misscandle]

So I've been a Zelda fan since OoT (I'm 30 now) and I've considered it my favorite series of games. When BotW came out I immediately got it and reeeeally didnt like it. I felt like it was too open ended and boring. A huge, empty world without direction. I gave TotK a try, after trying to like BotW MANY times. And I've sunk so many hours into this game man. I love it.

[@LtCdrXander]

Yeah, it's great! I feel like BotW still delivered better on story, but TotK's world has so much more to do. I was a bit disappointed that TotK's dungeons weren't that much better than BotW's boring ones, and I wish there were more to do in the Sky Islands. Overall though TotK has really grown on me. At first I didn't give it much of a chance as I wasn't liking it as much as BotW, but almost a year later I'm enjoying exploration a lot more. Finding caves and little things in the world is a lot more fun than exploring in BotW, even though TotK inherently doesn't quite capture the same magic as exploring BotW's world for the first time. At the same time, I kinda enjoyed BotW's emptiness since I feel that it adds to the sense of loneliness in the world, and I liked to just aimlessly wander and take in the ambience of BotW's emptier world. Still, having more to do in TotK's world is definitely a plus since the gameplay is just more engaging. I just really wish they did more with the Sky Islands and maybe the Depths too; those areas were kinda lacking in content, in my opinion. Like what if the Depths had varying environments, like underground jungle beneath Faron or ice caves beneath Hebra; just something to break up the single environment that spans the whole of the Depths. I enjoyed BotW's openness and emptiness for the vibes, but TotK definitely delivers more on the gameplay, and obviously having Ganondorf is a plus for TotK

[@GamingWithUncleJon]

life is so much easier when you have a long bridge he says as he gets to the area where the obvious solution is.... a long bridge. and it's also not a bird. it's a gliding bridge segment

[@bravecereza]

It's not a Monolith game... They helped but the Zelda Team did most of the work. Hate how people undermine their work

[@pinguludd6586]

2:21:45 (this is what you want to see)

[@zombiezombie5396]

Something is wrong with the Subscribe Button🤔

[@neomothdev2]

wait isnt "shank" a term for stabbing someone from behind with a shiv or similar weapon? i dont think you'd call a knife a "shank", you'd call it a knife or a shiv and call the act of stabbing someone with it a shank. who knows maybe im talking out of my ass

[@no1guy825]

Press R doofus....to steer in the air. Why does EVERYONE just free fall??

[@j.w.-]

I hope he hits the griddy

[@Noname48753]

I was hoping to experience the game by watching you play but all I’ve gotten is chainsaw man references 🥲
