[@thememeilator2633]

@@leolen8029 that`s what im saying though. the Hyrule in BotW/TotK is different but so much time has passed that the very structure of the land has morphed and changed due to who knows what. now if you deem the era of myth and what one of the devs said (i think) as not canon to BotW and Totk then yeah i agree but the devs did say that it takes place furthest in the overall timeline so they are connected just not by narrative.

I hope it’s just as much of a confusing mess as BOTW speedruns, and with the new tech I imagine it’ll be just as wild if not wilder.

[@christianwhalen9263]

26:40 It’s so cool looking back and realizing what Nintendo did there. Dan literally asked “Where’s Zelda in all this?” And the game answered him

The moment Link delivers the Master Sword to Zelda, he completes the cycle and she spawns into the world

[@shibuyaneko5741]

[@zoeschmitt1624]

Yes I love how you can literally see her flying through the background during the first fall ( 5:19 and again at 5:32 ) so that when the title appears Link and Zelda are both on screen. You just wouldn’t know if you’re playing this blind for the first time. But yeah, the sheer perfection of comedic timing that is RT asking where Zelda is the *moment* she bursts through the clouds.

it's almost been a year since this game's been released and rt going down to the actual final boss of the game on day 1 of release still manages to be probably the most badass thing i've seen someone do in this game genuinely

After facing Ganon and winning against him, I finally allow myself to watch Dan play this game

[@randomninja7632]

He legit played like a god during the last section of the vid. I’m legit astonished how well he performed

20:54 Happy 1 Year Anniversary since RT stubbed his toe

[@reagansido5823]

props to him for immediately getting the story from just the one tear memory.

CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE MUSIC TIMING AT 57:30? Cause holy shit i ascended the moment RT fused the new ice rod and the triumphant strings came IN! LIKE GODDANM THATS SOME REAL HERO STUFF FR!!

[@HazeEmry]

57:30 maybe?

[@Eg-ej6nx]

​@@HazeEmry damn u right lemme change that real quick

[@playout4630]

I said to myself I wasn't going to be spoiled by RT since he was probably going to do some insane shenanigans in the first episode. 300 hours later.... I am glad I wasn't spoiled and now I can savour the beauty that is this TOTK playthrough.

[@certifiedtealeaf]

I would have been honestly more surprised if dan hadn't made it as far as he did

[@megaman7010]

Thank God it's not an hour long I wouldn't be able to finish it

26:40 “Where is Zelda in all this?” **Light Dragon flys by*

[@wolframstahl1263]

Okay, I'm only 8 minutes in and it already looks so great and beautiful that I'm stopping here. And watch the uncut version instead.

This was one of the most legendary gamer moments I've watched live on twitch, had me literally cheering you on in my car after work (couldn't drive home, too invested)! Bravo, sir, the RT Legend!

[@ottowalter3825]

I cant express how excited I am for this! Big fan of all your full let's plays and now even more so because it's a new game!
