ZFG is always a highlight during GDQ. dude practically does GDQ on stream every day, so it’s like he’s always practicing. feels so natural, even though OoT is extremely technical.

[@strizzyclips]

28:59 coolest trick ive ever seen in a speedrun

[@adamd0ggg2]

I swear some these Zelda glitches involve so much memory manipulation and precision that one day a speed runner will prove Ocarina of Time is Turing complete. Then another speed runner will program Ocarina of Time in Ocarina of Time.

[@stickfigure42]

This already proves that it's Turing complete, at least to the extent that you can claim that about an N64. Arbitrary code execution means *arbitrary*.

[@bouboulroz]

I mean, shouldn't the fact that they managed to code a picture that wasn't initially present in the game already be proof of that ?

[@ichicoro]

I mean, there's ACE. That pretty much makes it turing complete lol

[@jmarvins]

In fact it IS Turing Complete: we already have ACE on the n64 version, by multiple methods of input, so you can code anything in OOT given enough precision now.

[@jmarvins]

see the glitch exhibition after this run where they will code in a surprise :)

15:29 "And in general it's good to become adult quite quickly because adult can just use a lot of extra stuff.. adults just generally- the better, you know, if you wanna get lots of stuff you should be turning adult, really." Great advice for Ocarina Of Time, and for life itself

[@thealarm7057]

Yikes... Don't become adult quickly... Try to hold on to your innocent inner child as long as you can, just like Young Link, you'll miss out of all the fun stuff and then have to rush it as an adult cause there's no time to catch up.

[@gericko4931]

@@thealarm7057 but then you realize you though so much about the anxiety of becoming an adult that you actually don't do anything because another better thing could happen, like dating a person: "Yeah, I mean, I like him,he likes me, but there are better people to date with and he will probably break my heart and I will end up not being a good adult later in the future". damn

ok this guy is a god lol, unbelievable displays.

[@tomwors]

His channel has a lot of randomizer runs which really showcase how good he is at the game as a whole. Problem solving and mastery of the mechanics

[@thehoodedteddy1335]

The thing that actually blew my mind in this speedrun is learning that there are only 256 items in the game

[@dukedragon28]

There are actually way fewer than 256 but because every item has a value represented with 8-Bits there are 256 possible items. Over 100 of them are glitched items

[@Ari19904]

as someone who never watches speedruns, this was fucking fun to watch. im binge-watching the shit out of these

[@pebbles214]

Seriously my favorite speedrun of all time. Truly a testament to the dedication of runners to their craft. Also, while the new glitch was awesome, I'm glad they kept many other glitches in the run, even if some of them might have been made obsolete by the new glitch.

This is crazy I can't believe they got adult like without having to do any child levels I hope it makes them do the levels as adult link that would be hilarious

[@christianwood9714]

Cool game, And cool gaming. 👍

[@cousincorps]

this makes me think, I wonder if someone could use ACE for a magic trick, like they'd have someone pick a card, upload data of that card number(probably prior), then execute the code to make link's B button have the card on it. that would be pretty dope

Console is Wii, as you can read in the top left and he is using a Gamecube-Controller.

[@the_bookworm8281]

He was playing the GameCube port of OoT (the anniversary edition to be more precise) on the Wii, as the Wii has backwards compatibility with GameCube games. ZFG always plays with a GameCube controller.

[@p6draws609]

He played on the GameCube (might be wii actually)

[@yeahthatgbb]

He said he's playing the gamecube version and it says in the corner he's playing on a wii. My guess is it's the gamecube disc played on a wii with a gamecube controller.

This is super impressive and entertaining, but I can’t help struggling to keep interest whenever I try to watch OoT runs because no matter what they never resemble the vanilla run. Just kind of difficult to wrap your head around what’s even happening.

[@hylic2637]

yeah i get that, this game has become so incredibly warped over the last decade and new major glitches are still being found to this day that warp the run even more. You either had to watch the progression of the run over the years or put a lot of time into watching current runs to get an understanding. Its definitely tough to wrap your head around.

[@ryankim3299]

yeah it's more fun to watch these if you know how the glitch works. these memory manipulation tricks are hella confusing

[@RickyG93]

Why not just use the new glitch? Wouldnt that save more time? This category seems pointless.

[@TheGoldenDunsparce]

AGDQ isn't competitive and more of a showcase, so it's better to show off the old method in addition to the newly discovered glitches so the viewers still have something to watch, and so that the timeslot given to the runner isn't wasted

[@shawnbelcher7135]

No less pointless then any other category. The new glitch isn't "fun" to many.

Because Japanese is the fastest language, since it takes fewer characters to finish a sentence than English (so takes less time to get through cutscenes)
