fun fact they skip all the rupee text boxes somehow till the point where they clip in the lake so that they get that text box at that point.

It's a true speedrun because the TASer made sure to equip the Iron Boots as Link was hitting the final blow. 10/10 would watch again.

[@herosmerlose5784]

Everyone always says TP early game is “slow” (or flat out boring) and I’m not saying anyone is wrong, but it’s something I’ve always really liked about the game. There’s just something really relaxing about playing through a little slice of life for a day in the life of the farm hand in this otherworldly forest village. I feel like it would be a really nice life to live and the escape from the real world is just…nice.

[@poixon_asherzzz]

Hate to break it to you...there is always someone that will complain about most zelda games. Thing is enjoy yourself and have fun haha!!

[@joey_pasquariello]

I get where you’re coming from but most people just wanna play a Zelda game, not a slow slice of life fantasy story, we want a sword and a shield so we can fight things and solve dungeons🤷‍♂️

[@Lyndelle_4010]

I totally agree… Most of the time, we don’t get to take a look or sometimes even the idea of how Link was before he took upon the role of the Hero… TP showcased just that perfectly and it's such a nice little reprieve from the common hack and slash action games that LoZ games commonly take, as much as that is very fun and all… Makes this version of Link seem much more relatable than usual…

[@desiringgold]

Honestly. I always thought people just meant the bug smashing especially in Hylia lake and the back and forth for iron boots and the amount of time it takes to actually get to the second dungeon. I never imagined the people actually hated the very beginning farm life part. Besides for the annoying kids getting in trouble and the girl just taking your horse for "mistreatment". That part actually felt very fast and just enjoyable to see Link go from a country life to actually being exposed to Hyrule.

[@JJ_R]

Doors aren’t an obstacle in this run, but rather a suggestion.

[@C3C1714]

Yeah! and the answer is 𝙣 𝙤 .

[@doorto6152]

Nah. Doors are just cosmetic.

TASes are so much cooler when you have someone explain what happens and how impressive it is!

[@herosmerlose5784]

Funny thing is when you watch speed runs it seems soooooooo full of glitches being exploited all over the place, and 100% is still 6+ hours.

[@Dliciousization]

It is absolutely incredible what people can do for the projects they're passionate about. It took 4 YEARS to make this? That's my entire degree lol. Kudos to the team that made this.

[@vivaille_]

The team? It was 1 guy :'))

[@Eliholz]

He's called Zanto in German (and Xanto in French) because that is just one version to interpret the original Japanese name of ザント (Zanto). It's similar with Midna who is called Midona in French. The localisers will probably just choose whatever flows better in the respective language.

[@robloxzocken3061]

You are right. In German, Zanth would sound so akward

[@pullsane]

​@@robloxzocken3061Ok zuerst wollt ich sagen, dass ich Zanto viel seltsamer finde aber nachden ich nachgedacht hab muss ich scho sagen, wenn man es wirklich mit einen Z und nicht einem S ausspricht klingts wirklich komisch. Ich mein Zanto ist nicht sehr viel besser aber ich hab eh einen allgemeinen grund grant gegen Deutsche Aussprache von japanischen Namen. Merklich NARUUUUUUTOOOOOO. SASUUUUUUUKEEEEEEE 😂

[@particleng]

linkus explaining back in time so well in such a short, concise explanation is incredible -- i don't think i've ever seen someone go through that trick so casually before. can't wait to hear the rest of the explanations here (and the popoff reactions)

46:25 That was definitely one of the coolest things I've ever seen in a speedrun. Just pure, unadulterated, unapologetic swag. I also had no idea you could use the bow on Ganon. The first time my brother got to him we spent forever trying to figure out how to open him up (not even thinking to use the wolf for quite a while) until finally noticing the action command for grabbing him. Hard to believe we never thought or tried just shooting the gem with the bow, seems very obvious, but we were just kids I guess.

[@lobsterp3821]

You can also use the ball and chain to knock Ganon over :D

@@kaycee7738they replay back inputs that were done at frame by frame. It takes 4 years because you’re literally playing each input at at frame not including fuckups, repeats and whatever else.

What I always find funny is how a tas will sometimes do things that doesn't look like precision but instead makes it look like the original game is just really broken, like how easy it seemed they were going through doors and gates.

I love watching speedruns of old games like this. Where a combination of precision controls and spaghetti code allows you to just abuse the hell out of everything. With newer stuff people don't write as much spaghetti because they're not trying to save every possible byte of memory and processor cycle, so there's less to abuse.

[@TheIceCrypt]

This is how fast Link is able to beat Ganon after centuries of reincarnation.

[@ronnieedge2236]
