[@cantaloupeme]

Thank you all letting me do this again. Was a lot of fun. Felt like I was at home streaming with the way setup was done :-)

[@pokeman4512]

Awesome run man! The controller drop at the end was legendary

[@Tootbook]

Thanks for the entertainment, and sorry for your loss.

[@simpleandsuccess]

Epic run. Really a lot of fun to watch.

[@Bobbing4Fries]

GGs bud!

[@SassageLink83]

GGs on the run Cantaloupe! You crushed it about as well as you crush me in rando tourneys lol

[@TheMNWolf]

20:30 As a youngling I always thought the lynels were Yorkshire terriers strapped with swords.

[@Optimator7]

So glad the couch commentator on the right was there. Very insightful

[@likilikiki]

I remember getting this game for my birthday in 1987 or 88.... twice. I had my mom return one copy to get another game with my dumb @ss 😂 I should have kept the other one sealed and stored away. Would have been worth so much now.

[@workingclown]

glad to know I'm not the only one who sees the letter and maps as waffle cones

[@zmancan5290]

Speedrunning: 100. Comedy chops: 0.

[@TheJonathanc82]

So great to see some of my favorite people in streaming in this VOD. GG!!!!

[@DaleStrife]

He absolutely destroyed this game. Well done!

[@mesajake2191]

My favorite game! Love seeing it at AGDQ. Thanks for the great run + commentary!

[@MissAshley42]

Incredible run and great couch!

[@YawleyG]

Excellent, chill run. Charming humor, informative commentary--very genuine. A breath of fresh air after watching some of the more boisterous runs of the marathon.

[@nestalgeek3991]

That was very nice, good job!

[@tylerbabcock1376]

Im still hoping for pancakes

[@mittensfastpaw]

A fun run! Such a good ol classic!

[@Logales]

Thanks for the shoutout :) I had to stay at work to do the commentary :D

[@caleb6179]

Yo let’s here it for James this guys stepdad he did the run for.

[@systemthegaming]

Fun run to watch - dad jokes on point.

[@redtzu]

Mi juego favorito de mi infancia, el primero que adquirí y debe ser el que más recuerdo jugar

[@CaptainXJ]

Fantastic

[@S4ns]

Good run, gg

[@dialest]

At 6:17, why does he take no damage at all? I know the body does a different amount of damage, but he took no damage; he even preserved his beam sword.

[@jpark37]

Actually, he took 0.375 hearts of damage. Everything in this game does damage as a multiple of 0.5 hearts EXCEPT attached gleeok heads. The UI only shows health decreases in 0.5 heart increments, and you need to take that much damage to lose beam sword. I don't remember if the 0.375 heart damage impacts the triforce health refill time though.

[@pairofrooks]

​@@jpark37 wow I never knew 😮

[@dialest]

@@jpark37 That is wild, and I can't believe I didn't know that. Thank you so much.

[@kirah.7106]

Yeah ALttP also has a thing where if you get hit by a very weak enemy you take damage so small it doesn't register on screen and you get to keep your beams.

[@bretthowarth857]

Does the Large shield count as an item ?

[@inertia186]

Guess not. Maybe the rule is only items that cannot be lost. E.g., if there was a way to skip Grumble-Grumble, maybe the meat would also be optional.

[@adirondackrick]

It's a consumable, because you can lose it to a LikeLike. Hence, it is not required in 100%.

[@germdove]

No, because it's possible to lose it.

[@kadel300]

Came to say this. I'd also argue that all items would include maps and compasses

[@chrisyowyow]

i was wondering about this too

[@HollowaysIdea]

Def missed the potion 🧪

[@KidLexDC]

I was trying to figure out how 100% was possible in 38:26 glitchless like the agdq schedule says.

[@GreyFireClover]

It changed from Glitchless to 100% with glitches because an incentive was met

[@screemineagles]

Maybe i missed it, but is upgrading the shield not required in a 100% run?

[@enmunate]

No

[@breadcodes]

100% doesn't include the 9 maps, 9 compasses, or the Magical Shield. They don't include the shield because it is expendable and repurchase-able (like bombs, which are also not technically required). They can be taken by a like like, and can be purchased again. The 100% Plus category requires the 9 maps, 9 compasses, and the Magical Shield.

[@sourandbitter3062]

@@breadcodes Thanks!

[@jdlaws8470]

Glitches get stitches 😂

[@jdhannan]

The inside jokes per minute ratio is off the charts! 😅

[@adriansolis5362]

Yea. I'm pretty sure I was NOT privy to 99% of the humor, but that's cool. Still a really enjoyable run.

[@darrin777]

One bomb kill Gleeok = instant like (like)

[@xenonnboy]

Alriiiiiight

[@Dark.Shingo]

Sorry I missed how, why Dodongo died with only 1 bomb?

[@holtscustomcreations]

That Anonymous person seams to donate a lot of money everyday. :)

[@TerribleDate]

gg

[@jst25]

No large shield = 98% run

[@____chris]

Is this true?

[@sourandbitter3062]

It's not required in the 100% run

[@GreyFireClover]

They don't require the magical shield nor the maps or compassesfor 100% however they are required for the category 100% plus @@____chris

[@juanstarnotip8122]

not 100% he didn't get the big shield

[@Tblaster00]

This is marked as glitchless on the GDQ schedule yet he uses glitches?

[@fusoyaff2]

The donation incentive was met which changed it from glitchless category to the 100% category

[@locustkllr]

100% doesnt include the shield?

[@StonerJames]

Not collecting the white sword or wooden/magical boomerang and whatnot, is not completing it 100%. 100% completion is collecting everything, including the white sword, magical sword, letter to the old lady for medicine, ect., that is 100% completion. What you are playing here is NOT 100% completion and anyone else that says differently, needs to go back to basic math class in elementary school. So by not collecting said items, you are only completing this game 98%, 99% at best. So if this run is going to be recorded in a book or whatever, it should not be in the 100% completion section.
