What percentage of your audience is male? No judgment, just, as a woman, I've noticed like 95% of your ads are for manscaped lol. Which like I don't care, but I guess manscaped isn't exactly expecting your audience to have many women since they'd be wasting their time maybe? oh well! I love your content and I wonder how many other people subscribed to your channel are women?

Barrier skip technique: First go like thiiiis, spin around STOP, double take 3 times. Then pelvic thrusts! Stop on your right foot, don't forget it! Then bring it around tooooown, then this and this then this then that and theeeen...you're through.

[@Spencer-wc6ew]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@TalasDS]

Still, I think it's pretty amazing they managed to find a pattern to get this glitch working that quickly. I remember when barrier skip was first discovered, everyone knew it was completely possible to do on a TAS, and everybody was looking for a way to set the glitch faster for humans. I think it took at least 25-30 mins. of just horsing arround to maybe get it to work.

[@JEANS__]

So funny how all the old skips were so much more complex because a few relatively simple things weren't discovered yet.

[@philmur18]

I thought it funny that using tingle tuner in restricted areas was found like ten years ago, but nobody seen the dudes post lmao. No speedrunners, anyways. Reminds me of when I found infinite bomb glitch years ago, and asked narcissa wright if it was known about, and she was just like "I have no clue" lol

[@gamingwithahandicapreviews]

A new discovery? Today’s a good day happy Halloween Linkus!

[@asshizu]

indeed

[@ArcheoLumiere]

Time for a new Summoning Salt video apparently

[@saullopez1274]

How the hell is wind waker still getting new glitches? Thats mad impressive

[@MaximeLafreniere433]

We'll never know every glitch a game can have. We just find more and more as long as anyone keeps testing new things.

[@bunchacolors1501]

As long as people keep playing games, glitches can be found. Look at ACE in OoT

[@ChaoticEnigma-]

OOT just had a reroute because of a new glitch so this isn't surprising

[@ZephWraen]

Didn't it take like 10-15 years or something to discover the wrong warp glitch used in OoT speedruns? Sometimes people just stumble on things years later, lol.

[@LoyaLPikmin]

19:27 WAIT A MINUTE!! PRE-RENDERED CUTSCENE!!!! Link has a tunic and shield in it!!!!

[@davidwhidden9337]

Yes? There are glitches that take advantage of this for the Master Sword Fully Powered Early

[@DagoDuck]

7:30 I still think it‘s weird that they didn‘t just play the animation without actually moving Link‘s hitbox. 22:50 So that means if someone for SOME reason was to get that without the setup, the run would be essentially dead?

[@king_br0k]

I think it would be theoretically doable without the setup, but the odds of getting is is basically 0

[@idontwantahandlethough]

Who would have guessed that the frickin' _tingle tuner_ would be the most powerful item in the game?

[@philmur18]

Has been for a long time. Could still skip really big sections of gameplay with it in the past. I get what ya mean though, this new stuff is nutty. Also crazy that someone found you could use the tuner in restricted areas ten years ago, but people only recently seen the post. Makes a person wonder what other huge glitches have been found in games that could save huge amounts of time, but they are just sitting on a random gaming forum somewhere that nobody has read

[@cassie_dp]

Tingle would, haha

[@davidpotts7116]

I really hope a “barrier skip skip” is discovered at some point. I would hate to see the day where WW is perfected to the point that the only way to save time on a run is to drop the setups entirely

[@flamegeyser9781]

How the hell does Linkus always nail every trick while live commentating his own runs in like 1-2 tries. Dude's a monster.

[@loiscampos4553]

Linkus casually using his nose to buy a red potion with the Tinglevisor while doing zombie hovers got me.

[@devonm042690]

21:21-22:21 New Barrier Skip Tech. Also 21:21-22:21 How to blow the perfect bubble.

[@-The-Cake-Is-A-Lie-]

@camo1718 22:06 I legit laughed out loud lol one of the best SpongeBob episodes 👌

[@nodrance]

I love that even with a few dozen dedicated speedrunners and glitch hunters, most discoveries in even a super popular game just happen from the sheer number of people playing. Even something with a one in a million chance will happen a few hundred times.

[@liamruiz3196]

This is awesome! I love how more glitches get discovered as time goes on. Hopefully they find a way to do storage in wind Waker hd to do faster speed runs. Apparently it can be done in the helmaroc king boss fight if Link defeats it with a bomb and starts zombie hovering which will have him controllable while the boss defeat cutscene plays, but Link needs to be underneath rocks in the arena to take out a bomb and upon exploding the bomb will drop a heart, and after recovering Link now has storage and can do camera lock in HD. But that’s the only use of it in the HD version, and I think if Link spams the wind Waker during the Ganondorf boss fight while Zelda is trying to talk to him it can also give storage, but so far those are the only ways to activate storage in the HD version.

[@himignicest1571]

dude that pixel perfect setup is CRAZY, speedrunners are just a different species bro

[@ArcheoLumiere]

30:39 It's a chivalrous run, no need to slap Zelda's ass anymore!

[@Bookworm159]

Fantastic video and super interesting glitches. Your explanations were super helpful. I look forward to watching your world record run when you get it.

[@Flapjack3734]

Link discovers quantum tunneling to skip the barrier

[@benjaminbuchanan7151]

I lost it when he had to use his nose to ready the potion.😂

[@The1200s]

It’s funny that rather than just a glitch in the game. The result of “unplugging it and plugging it back in, but twice” was the solution for such a time cut.

[@MarkofWisdom]

While fascinating to see these glitches and stuff and how busted they can be, this sounds like a great way to break controllers really fast as well as wreck your hands and wrists. Then the zombie hovers later have tons of other mashing. Do take care not to ruin your hands with these tricks

[@thefamilymealgaming]

how does one find those series of actions to get through the barrier because that was a KOF combo level of complicated

[@colinbrown7947]

I dont know for sure but most likely it was found using TAS tools to try thousands or millions of possible input chains to find one that works. This has been done for tricks in other games and I think previous tricks in wind waker

[@graceholbert2126]

Yo Wind Waker is my favorite speedrun! I can't believe they found new stuff!

[@jefferblue]

Happy Halloween Linkus and everyone!! 🎃👻🦇

1:00 hands where we can see them sir, no funny business. 🤨

[@Bookworm159]

Have you tried unplugging it and plugging it back in? My goodness, that is one of the funniest glitches I have ever seen. Can't go wrong with good old basic IT solutions.

[@professoryorick5676]

been waiting for this video for like a week now 🙏 watched both of minis 😂

[@KernalGohd]

Its wild that the only sequence of the entire game that gets played now is the Ganon fight at the end.

[@Patashu]

all the new glitches are amazing, what a year for TWW

[@NormalLunk]

The new barrier skip instructions sound like when you're in elementary school and that one kid on the playground is explaining how to shoot a 3 pointer on the basketball hoop.

[@MigoKazan]

Tingle Tuner my beloved, good to see it finally get some much deserved attention

[@Jeremysui4]

Daaaamn what would past linkus have said, while doing morph shenanigans, that this would be possible. 😂 Good Job linkus, great Video and good luck for getting the wr! You can do it, u judt gotta beliveeeeee! Greetings Coren! linkusLove

These new finds are insane wow.

Wow this speed run is amazing now

[@ultralance]

16 to 20 inputs per second in a back-and-forth motion? Teenage me prepared for this. By playing Guitar Hero on Expert. Trembalo strumming ftw

[@jackparnham2267]

Happy Halloween linkus

[@jamesfloyd6693]

The process to get through the barrier is the same as how Spongebob blows bubbles.

[@VSteam81]

hearing the wind waker on the gamecube version (ive never played it, but ive played hd), it sounds so weird

[@beccagalopogusberry1654]

The nose tech was impressive.

[@Lawlzyoutoobz]

Cant wait for the eventual start menu glitch that just rolls credits

@1:15 sure, thats what you are doing

[@nickvitale]

Is Wind Waker now the community preferred speedrun over HD now that it's been developed further?

[@MaximeLafreniere433]

If I got a nickel every time Linkus explained how Super Swim works/happens, I'd have a lot of nickels.

[@matthewpletsch7523]

I remember when Barrier Skip was the discovery.

[@RadiantPlayhouse]

Why didn't this was discovered long time ago you can just simply do sword slash with pause

[@ls190v2]

Under an HOUR, baby!

[@Pittato]

10:00 to skip to the new stuff

i need a pic of linkus with a mustache

due that's huge sub 1h always has been real

[@FidoriaSky]

Every 6 Month nobody: Linkus: A GAMEBREAKING GLITCH On wind waker xDDD

[@DoinThatRag]

Requiring a GBA and link cable seems like a high barrier to entry now for this speedrun cause you need more hardware. Also rules out re-releases on newer hardware. Was there uproar over this requirement?

[@Srelathon]

Do you think another category split is going to happen because of this route?

[@Cosmic-Clod]

SPOOKY WIND WAKER

[@juanchol21]

this speedrun is so unhinged lol

[@Okay20-0]

Love wind waker❤️

[@matthewsurburg-rq8ip]

Has linkus given up on all dungeons?

we can get the deekoo leaf

[@marc-antoinebechard5974]

Uhh... you said no items other than a sword for barrier skip but you had to use the leaf.

[@iNinBreak]

HOW? how is there somethinge that saves like 15-20 minutes still being found after barrier skip

again?? jesus christ

[@Falcarious]

whats with the webcam jumpcuts? at multiple points you act like you're playing the run we're watching, complete with controller mashing sounds, but the cuts in the webcam never coincide with cuts in the gameplay, timer, or live chat

[@user-zs4iq2dl5x]

does anyone have a download link for windaker on dolphin emulator for PC
