Let's Play All of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

[@RTGame]

"Hey gamers, welcome back to Lil' Man Gaming. Be sure to SMASH THAT LIKE BUTTON for more zany Tik Toks like this" I love The Wind Waker so much. Thanks to everyone who joined me for all of the streams of this on Twitch. Me and my editor Cloé have worked hard to condense the entire playthrough into one video. This is my favourite Zelda game second only to Breath of the Wild and I love its world and charm. I actually got the special Wind Waker Wii U just so I could play this version haha. "AND IF YOU ENJOYED THIS SENTIMENTAL MESSAGE, BE SURE TO SMASH THE LIKE BUTTON, LIL' MAN OVER AND OUT"

What i love about the hero of winds is the fact he isn’t the hero’s spirit that is every other hero, that spirit no longer exists in the timeline. This 10 year old just claimed dibs on being the replacement hero all because he loved his sister so much.

[@captaincaspian42]

Speaking of sisters, my mom bought this game for me and my sister thinking it was a 2-player, seeing both Link and Tetra on the box, so when Aryll was immediately introduced I pointed at the screen and told my sister that that was "her" character and I gave her a broken Wii remote to "play" with. We then got stuck somewhere around the top of Dragon Roost Island a few months later and played our own version of Wind Waker out in the yard with whatever sticks we could find for the baton.

[@the_rabidsquirel]

I know I'm late, but just to add since surprisingly no one mentioned it to RT (at least in this edit). You can actually just block his attacks with your shield and it doesn't count as getting hit. It makes 999 hits trivial. Just hit him a few times then block until he attacks. Takes a while, but it's hard to mess up. I know this works in the GameCube version, I'm reading that it works in the Wii U version too.

I went to a convention one time and there was a person there who had a sploosh-kaboom booth set up, he had all of the hand painted masks and the board set up, there was people all day playing and he stayed in character(s) the entire time, still one of the coolest memories I have (He also gave away little heart pieces of chocolate out if you won)

For that second boss, the reason the Forest Water instantly kills it is because the Forest Water is supposed to be "sacred water" or "cleansing water." Kalle Demos (the boss) is said to be a parasite or just an evil being, so the sacred Forest Water instantly destroys that parasite.

[@JubioHDX]

idk if he's the most badass but i do love that this specific link isnt even a reincarnation of the hero, as "link"'s soul as we think of it isnt even in that world anymore, he's just a guy with a kidnapped sister who decided he needs to get to the root of the issue lol

[@coneyislandqueen476]

honestly i think they meant that he isn’t THE hero of time, as in the one that saved them a long time ago. and he didn’t really have a CHOICE in this matter, if you think about it. He had to do a bunch of shit to save his sister in the first place, and i don’t think that he had a choice but to continue in his journey after the pirates took her. she would’ve still been in danger (along with everybody else alive in the Great Sea) if he had been allowed to continue to exist

Fun fact: The reason the Magic Armor and ending bubbles make it look like Link is wearing his hat is because he IS wearing one; he's modeled to have an invisible hat whenever he's not in the green tunic rather than a totally separate hair model.

[@gothiiispiderz]

why. that just sounds entirely too complicated

[@powdermelonkeg]

@@gothiiispiderz Basically, instead of making an entirely new model for Link to switch between when he's in a different outfit, the game instead goes "Okay, if tutorial is active, use texture 1 for hat. If tutorial is complete, use texture 2." Texture 1 is just a blank square, so the hat disappears, while texture 2 is green, so the hat shows up as green. It's to save loading time, keep it from bugging out, and make less work for the devs, because rather than switching to an entirely different 3D-rendered head, it's just swapping between two image files.

I’m still angry that they fundamentally changed Tetra when she became Zelda. She was a swashbuckling badass before the transformation but afterwards she’s just eh.

She still has her crew, she still has her skills, and she’s proven several times she’s more competent than you. Why shouldn’t she be a warrior princess fighting along side you.

Yeah, but this King is infinitely better than the one in Breath of the Wild. At least the King of Red Lions not only actively helps Link, but actually makes a meaningful sacrifice to ensure the evil of Ganon doesn't continue, and recognizes his own faults played a part in the downfall of Hyrule, while emphasizing the freedom of Tetra and Link. Breath of the Wild's King is only helpful for the starting region, and ruined Zelda mentally which may have played a part in the downfall of Hyrule. The two Sages only need to stay there temporarily, while the four Champions are dead due to BoTW King's actions. I will not take this King of Red Lions slander.

[@dewydewback]

I feel like the argument of "I know he's bad, but this other guy is worse" isn't a great defense...

[@aeonixhope8383]

I'm not saying that Red Lions doesn't have his own faults or made terrible decisions. It's just that when compared to BotW King, he made a more active effort in fixing his mistakes. He actually acknowledges his own faults and tries to ensure the tragedy of the past doesn't occur again. And when the time comes for him to use the Triforce, instead of using it to grant his wish of seeing Hyrule wise, he instead decides to let Hyrule end and have this era's Link and Tetra live the life they want.

[@thepbrit]

I'm not sure what else you wanted the king to do in Breath of wild, he's dead, and unlike the champions he has no sheika tech to possess or great combat skill for you to inherit, instead he waited for 100 years for you to awaken and to help guide you to fixing his mistakes and saving Hyrule. Could he have been a better father? Fuck yes, but as a ghost he's doing his fucking best to fix everything, and considering he's held a corporeal form for 100 years he did way more than the champions who are implied to pass on after Ganon died

Plus Ocarina of Time was still in recent memory, a game that along with Super Mario 64 defined for the industry what a game should be like in three dimensions.

When I was a young child of like 7, I got a GameCube with 2 games. Mario Party 7, and this gem, Wind Waker. For many a year or so, I could get off Outset Island. There was something that got in the way of the story progressing that I couldn't get past. At the time, the internet was scarcely a thing. The thing that set me back? You can climb up both sides of Grandma's ladder in the house. I kept climbing the rear side, and never the front. So I couldn't get the shield to advance.

[@ttmfndng201]

Similar story for me in ocarina of time: I was stuck for the longest time because I couldn't get the sword

[@iohsmdiglomdrn]

RT gives Link such a great voice- the selfie mode voiceovers where hilarious

[@ValeBridges]

"Multilingual rock - The Rosetta Stone, if you will" It took me a second to get that but once I did I burst out laughing

[@snowfractals]

I fucking love The King of Red Lions just going, "Your TikToks are quality." There's something incredibly funny about that for some reason.

[@snowfractals]

I return, around 1 year later, as I am going back through most of RT's content.

[@-Panna-]

This game is so incredibly nostalgic for me. Twilight Princess is my personal favorite Zelda game (and one of my favorite games ever), but The Wind Waker is a very close second. Thanks for playing this, Dan. :)

[@supervegha7958]

It really doesn't feel like it's been almost a year since this video came out, I have it running quite often as backround noise to fall asleep to, definitely one of my favorites. Keep up the good work Dan, you've really brought me a lot of joy (pun intended) these past few years and I just wanted to say thank you^^

[@AllegedlyHuman]

You may also like the full vods, available on youtube (RTGame archive channel or something like it) - I've watched the Windwaker ones twice so far, and there's obviously some bits that didn't make the cut. These particular vods are between 3 and 7 hours a piece, if memory serves me :)

[@ASP4wesome]

I've haven't played any console games, let alone any Zelda games. I dont have any console either. Watching RT play this made me feel excited to when I can afford my own console to play these games. Thank you Lil' Man for this gamplay.

[@Cricket-mo4vr]

This video is my comfort video I stg. I've watched/listened to it over a dozen times and have it looping while I work on homework

[@noraisthor]

watching this live was truly a fun and hilarious experience, especially since BOTW was my first Zelda game, way to go Lil man 🎉💞

[@moonlitdiamond4169]

5 minutes in and the lil' man's vlogs / KZbin vids have made me laugh harder than I did in months. This playthrough will be such an experience to watch...

[@mechaswool]

Oh hell yeah, I've been waiting for this. Wind Waker is my favorite Zelda game and I'm stoked RT played it again.

[@icanthinkofaname3439]

12:47 Gotta love how he skips perfectly over the part where purple reveals what he's been doing

[@willphoenix5464]

Unofficial datpags member spotted

[@mechaswool]

@@willphoenix5464 Not anymore, man. I had a falling out with them nearly four years ago.

[@gamerchief7740]

You know it's gonna be a great 2 hours with a protagonist like Lil' Man

[@lethalxlegion8738]

Here I am, two+ years later, watching Lil' Man vlog his way into my heart for the fourth time. Thanks Lil' Man. Oh, and thanks random Irish guy.

[@lilylohmann614]

I’m so glad to see that I’m not the only one who abuses camera features when they’re given to you in a video game, the Ganon shots are my favorite

[@Gobster_]

Hey RT, You probably won't see this, but thanks for making these videos. I downloaded some for my flights for graduation and back, and as a nervous flier it really helps having you there on the plane to keep me smiling :)

[@_soothsayer_]

i love that the item with the word "joy" in it brings Dan anything but joy from picking it up

[@ninjaamber]

Lil' Man is my favorite influencer B) Thank you and Cloe so much for editing this playthrough! This is the best vlog series ever

[@thundergunner4284]

I have so many good memories playing this game with my Sister and my Mother. I sometimes go back to this game and think about her, and how we used to hang out. It really is that game for me. Thanks for playing it, even watching it is great, and I'm glad I could hang around for it.

[@projectsourbuttons1022]

the hint of sadness of knowing that the photo of link and ganon will never be found in a tingle bottle

[@stevenwheeler6278]

I love these long play-throughs they are some of the coziest things on KZbin. Thanks RT, needed this atm. Cant wait to watch.

[@cjaoun23240]

I love these lets play all of videos. I don't have much freetime because of my coursework so I can't really watch archived streams or let alone be able to catch them live. These videos are the perfect balance between having a lot of content while still being able to fit it in my schedule. Thank you RT and your editors for putting these together.

[@conlybasher7783]

Wind Waker was my first Zelda, as well as my favorite above Majora's Mask. So nice seeing it get the ol' Rumble Tumble treatment!

[@matthewearles894]

Never been a fan of Zelda games but you sir have such a fantastic personality and such a mastery over showcasing that you creat an interest in games I wouldn't try on my own. For that I really really appreciate you. Thank you very much for your hard work and determination in your passion. 😊 Your awesome. I especially enjoyed your elden ring stuff.

[@Monochrome2004]

30:28 i cant get over rt getting back to full health and the IMMEDIATE next cut he's back to half a heart again with zero context

[@unoriginalblu]

From that nostalgic intro to the tear jerking end, I am glad to have watched this vlogventure of Lil' Man. He'll be shaking hands with the top creators on the web in no time.

[@voitrix3485]

I don't normally post comments but something amazing just happened and I wanted to share it with the class. So for some background I own a GameCube and I have a copy of Windwaker, however, around 4 years ago I lost a cable that allowed me to actually use the console. Over those 4 years I've looked countless times for said cable but to no avail, and eventually I just gave up looking, accepting the fact that I wouldn't be able to play some of my moat favorite games. Then this video comes out and within the first 10 minutes I get a rush of nostalgia and decide to look one more time. I set up my GameCube and get looking, 2 hours pass by with no cable to show for it so I call it quits but before I put everything away I press the power button on the console and it turns on and is working perfectly fine and for the past 4 years I've been looking for something that I didn't need. So I just wanted to give my thanks to Dan for starting my search and allowing me to find out how stupid I am. Now if you will excuse me I have to go play through one of my favorite games of all time.

[@maplechandelure]

XD

[@jiffy-jef]

I love this game so much! I love the moment where Medli awakens and looks at Komali flying in the sky, before she and Link leave. Honestly, this makes me really want to replay the game. Thanks RT!

[@zedbags]

1:35:48 I think one of my favorite parts of this game is how Ganondorf is just like "huh?"

[@reagansido5823]

"If you are not Zelda, then why do you have a fragment of the Triforce?" Well Lil' Man has a few fragments, but you're not accusing him of being Zelda, HMMMMMM?!?!

[@daraquessa2588]

Being there when it was live, I could hear the pain in Dan’s voice when he realised his photo was possibly gone due to him not saving. It was an amazing play through at any rate and very enjoyable.

[@myotiswii]

I love the music in this game. It must be heaven to play this as an orchestra

[@unknowngirl2714]

Since a lot of people are saying they found vlogging segments annoying, I'm just going to say they were the highlights of the video for me. It's just so ridiculous, I love it

[@Raynayn]

Once again, RT pulling through and dropping vids of my fave games on days were my mental health really be needing it. Thank you RT T_T

[@itsmehere1]

12:33 I will never forget that remix of link grunting that he shows here, every time I hear link grunt like that it always reminds me of it lol.

[@TheHeroPercy]

I just realized my resub hit exactly on the moment when Medli says thank you at 28:31 That’s freaking hilarious!

[@guwuega8010]

i teared up at the end of the last stream and again at the end of this video, this game truly is my childhood and one of the greatest pieces of video game art ever made. thank you for bringing me back to my inner child, Dan! ❤️

[@nox7796]

I doubt RT will see this but I would love for him to play okami with how much he already knows about the culture. It’s a beautiful and very fun game I think Rt would have a blast

[@math9172]

I don't know if you're planning on playing other zelda games on hero mode like this one, but Twilight Princess would be incredible. Anyway that was a really pleasant surprise, and a great watch. I'm almost never present during the streams, but I really enjoy very long VODs. Namely I "binged" the entire Ace Attorney series in a few days because I didn't have time when you first posted it, and it was a real pleasure. Your content is incredible, you are incredible. Thank you again.

[@K1ttyGam3r]

God, I LOVED this game when I was a young lass. Thx for playing, Dan

[@Erhannis]

1:03:39 "Oh, you're walking. That's cute. Report back when you can wave-dash." XD

[@niakay5732]

absolutely loved these streams RT, like literally the most entertained I’ve ever been! It was so nostalgic and it made me so happy :)

[@TheMagesticBG]

Wind Waker holds a special place in my heart, being the first Zelda game I ever played. I’m so incredibly glad that you were able to play it, and inspire me to get back into the series! As a longtime lurker (we’re talking pre-hell hole on the old Minecraft server!), thank you so much RT!

[@drewswoods]

Never owned a game cube. Always wanted to try out WW and TP. Don't know if I'll ever get the opportunity to, but it's nice to get part of the experience of it here.

[@freezeboy13]

Both are playable with a Wii U, which is the better way to play imo

[@voltscreamratty]

Emulators are also always an option

[@feelinglostinthepeople]

I still have mine and for all the set up to get it to work, with the cords and attachments you have to get for modern TVs, getting a Wii U would prob be the easier option!

[@birdguy6351]

_Game fades to black...._ "You can now vlog as Luigi!"

[@shadowkeizer2878]

Ya know. Everytime I see the Wind Temple boss, I am convinced Sony was stumped on ideas for colossi for SOTC, saw that boss, and was like "Well, I'll just take that, thank you very much. One less idea I gotta come up with."

[@enbytoon]

This was one of my favorite playthroughs that I got to watch live, thank you and Cloé for your hard work condensing this amazing stream

[@steampunkfox4932]

I love how how the tennis enemy is obviously a reference to the Gannon boss fight in Legend of Zelda Ocarina of time

[@EWRPVM]

Actually it’s more a reference to how you fight ganons avatar aghanim in link to the past originally, it’s kinda a tradition at this point in Ganon fights

[@graysenluckensmeyer3329]

They need to port this game to the switch. However watching you will be a perfect substitute until then. Thank you for blessing us with such beautiful content!🙌🏼

[@teathesilkwing7616]

Wind waker HD HD

[@faelyn42]

Wind Waker was the first video game I ever played, as well as the first one I ever saw, watching my mother play it as a child. I still have the original disc, and I still hook up the old gamecube every once in a while. It's the only game that's managed to live up to the nostalgia and I honestly don't know what I'd do if I ever lost or broke the disc.

[@F0KZ]

Never played or seen a playthrough of Windwaker before, but since it's RT we're talking about here I'll go ahead and burst my spoiler bubble and watch this one! Thanks for taking my windwaker v-card Dan!

[@patenshreve8796]

Thoughts on the game?

[@Nireni]

I loved these streams so much, such a classic game, so nostalgic.
