[@NoirKirbi]

I hope though that it's gonna be as free and sandboxy as botw. From the trailers it looks like it will have a more traditional story and a lot of different gimmicks that don't look like they could be used creatively

[@LegendofLink5204]

@@NoirKirbi Dude what are you talking about we can craft cars and flying machines in ToTK. If that’s not good enough for you I have no idea what is

[@Bark_the_Bokoblin]

5:39 I remember that day. The lieutenant told us we needed to attack Zelda, and we had a huge elaborate plan. But then... Link 360-No-Scoped three Lynels. So I said, "No thanks, I choose life," and left.

[@SuperZeldaGirl]

That change in the water level always confused me. i spend way to much time using the rafts in the ocean to get those wind waker vibes.

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

It's pretty extreme, but this does actually happen near undersea features in the real world too. There could be a sudden rise, like the costal shelf near that area being much higher than the surrounding sea. It should be a much more gradual increase though.

[@Professional-gaslighter-22]

Fun fact: if you play botw without dlc, Memory 13 is where link dies and gets put in the shrine of resurrection, and 13 is the "unlucky" number.

[@neosanity]

Can you post a vid of it so I can see?

I love the bit from 0:01 to 8:53! But anyway, I found something! If you have your map zoomed all the way out, zoom in twice, then on top of the last n in guchini plain, on the hill, you can find a glitched hole that leads you under the rock!

[@Inv_ity]

I find it so fascinating how many things there is in this game… I feel like I learn something new pretty often, which is pretty insane seeing as the game released 6 years ago

[@kidmicchildburger1467]

the game what

[@Lene02]

The fact about the horse on the shrine is a fix to a previous collision bug when doing the same action

[@TheBreadPirate]

I saw that during my research! That's such a cool fact.

[@jaxsongames8937]

Coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooool

[@atilacamurca]

Have you ever notice that the main music theme for Tears of the Kingdom is present in Breath of the Wild? If you talk to Kass to activate the Serpent's Jaws side quest you can hear it. And the fact that this shrine is related with the Zonai is a strong evidence that the Zonai will be present in Tears of the Kingdom. What do you think?

[@bobbobington1143]

I hope the original main theme will be in there somewhere

[@gwenchapman5068]

Wow they do sound really similar! That's actually pretty neat. Thanks!

[@Kazot_]

isnt it something from the botw main theme?

[@cin2110]

Well we got some zonai charge in the latest gameplay trailer

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

@@Kazot_ It uses the same musical phrases, but broken up and reordered.

[@Everything_Was_Taken]

Another horse fact is that link has different animations for mounting a horse, if you do it from the side he will just grab it and get on, but if you do it from the front link grabs onto the horses neck and do a sick trick to get on hin

[@dsgdsg9764]

To be completely honest I thought there would be nothing on this video I hadn't seen before but the detail with the memories is absolutely amazing

i have to thank you for videos like this. the legend of zelda is my special interest and breath of the wild is my favorite game of all time. i’m always ITCHING to learn more about this game and a lot of other fact videos are redundant. these videos are always fresh, new facts, and it brings my autistic heart joy (: so thank you so much for everything

[@LeadenMarshmallow]

This is exactly my situation too :)

[@samboi123]

I actually experienced 3:56 on my latest playthrough! I wanted to try riding a raft along the entire map (and wanted to get the labyrinth island without going through Akkala) so I went along that bump very quickly. Luckily I didn’t get launched off the raft or anything, but it was a fun experience!

[@athruwinter]

You definitely got a sub from me! I don't really often find KZbinrs that I actually sit down and watch, However, you've gotten a lot of chuckles out of me from your content, along with your editing is great! The fact you can keep pumping out content for BoTW and keep finding new things even years after it's been out is insanely impressive to me. Your videos have been helping me kind of get out of a dark place these past few days, and I'm really appreciative of that, so thank you!! Please keep these uploads up! I'm always looking forward to what you have to post! Keep it up!

[@Alkaris]

That horse one was probably done on purpose for obvious reasons to prevent Link from being spawned inside his mounts if they happen to be sitting over a teleportation point.

[@ARUCARDFTEPES]

I think it might have something to do with the horse mounting mechanic itself, since you can fall/jump onto the horse like one of the loading tips says. The teleporting in animation looks like he floats down then touches ground, so maybe he's technically in air before loading in? It's funny how many little attentions to detail there are, while simultaneously so many crazy glitches and bugs.

[@annaseres]

Yeeeey you got back your chanel! I just discovered your chanel before it hacked, wanted to watch a bunch of videos the next day and I find out it was hacked... I'm glad youtube helped you! I love Zelda and I really enjoy your humour :D now I bin watch your videos :D

Entertaining and educational! Fantastic work Bread, enjoy your break away!

There's a theory that Talus Plateau itself is a giant sleeping Talus. And we might see this in ToTK

[@mr_man_in_the_white_van]

heyyy, that fact about mipha healing link's wound is.... pretty cool, actually.

[@ameliasundin9507]

FACT: There is a point in the Faron region in Rassla Lake at the right side point that bumps out where you can literally walk under the water and actually make a fire without it going out!

[@RaggedVentures]

6:08 It's either really cool attention to detail, or "Hey, we modeled that sleeve rolled up and you only put it in one scene for a few seconds."

[@littlezork]

What's always been funny to me is that Hateno is basically Windfall. The two ladies gossiping, the way the road curves, point of interest at the top. Windmills.

[@CraftingGummi]

So y'all haven't always jump-mounted your horses? I do it all the time, since it feels cooler that way (even when it doesn't work as well as the normal way...)

[@cryolitegem]

I really like how the music quiets when you crouch- same goes for TotK. Makes me feel extra sneaky when I’m in goblin mode.

[@sheikahzelda]

1:12 idk why but laughed so hard when you said "da bird" lmao

Thank you for this video, i wasnt planning on finishing the game, and i really needed this to spend more time enjoying botw.

[@christianskjod3440]

It doesn't happen often that I come across a channel that I just really want to succeed. Like most times I subscribed just cuz I like the content but not only do I like your content but you just seem like such a wholesome guy and I want to see you succeed so that's another reason I subbed. I hope your dream of doing youtube full time comes true!

[@TheBreadPirate]

Wow! Thanks Christian Skjod. I really appreciate that. 🤩

[@saladman-fd4sy]

Cool video! Not sure if this has been said before, but I'm pretty sure that in Master Mode, Bokoblins/Lizalfos without warning horns can't raise the floating platforms they're standing on. These are mostly the ones next to waterfalls, but I found one next to a bridge and it couldn't get the Octoroks to fly up.

[@Cannon_The_Guy]

You have almost 100k subs and still have the appeal of a small channel. Nice work, dude Can’t wait for whatever content you make after totk

If you haven't covered this yet, if you put all the songs that kass plays in a certain order, you get the botw main theme

[@stephenaulin8298]

ah but did you know that when you charge up a spin attack with a one handed weapon there are two different charge poses. immediately charge, and you get the regular charge. but if you swing once and then charge DIRECTLY after, you get a new charge animation. INTPUTS: pick a one handed weapon. 1. Y and hold (reg pose) 2. Y Y and hold (second pose.

About the thing with the "dent" in the water, in Toto lake in the Lanayru region (The lake where you find the Zora helm.) there is a small dent.

[@ZHyruleFantasy]

Awesome video as always. Hope you have a good time on vacation!

[@Bigguyateaburger]

Good job getting your channel back up

[@mrman8444]

5:15 i remember they did they most likely because of an old glitch where when you did this same thing you would get soft-locked

[@miamesa8652]

I'm pretty sure the "sakurda builders" isn't a typo In japanese, they don't have a character for consonants alone other than "N" (ん/ン), so, in the case that they want to make something like an R, they usually use "Ru" (る/ル) or "Ra" (ら/ラ), but leave the vowel mostly silent, the word itself, when spelled with letters will also remove the vowel entirely This is especially true when using their alternative alphabet, the katakana, which is used for names or for words from foreign languages, which likely what was used to spell "Sakurda" (サクラダ)

[@stank0man]

Subscribed for exploding my brain by lifting the ruined guardian, great content

“With a spoon” got me 😂 you deserve the like and sub

[@el_pro_man]

yo, I just noticed, Memory 10, when Mipha is healing Link, you can sort of see heart shaped bokeh, kind of like particles looking like this emoji (🩵) she was healing hime with *love*

[@IsabellaPadgett-jb2bm]

THERE WAS A PRINCESS BRIDE REFERENCE This is my first time seeing one of The Bread Pirate's videos and now because of the reference I'm hooked XD

[@zeila5718]

IDK if this is common knowledge, but another fun fact about botw is that you can wear the sand boots or snow boots with the Gerudo Vai veil and top inside Gerudo Town without being recognized as a Voe. Any other pants (besides the Gerudo Sirwal that go with the Vai outfit) will get you kicked out of town.

[@HeroBear64]

I have beat the game many a time, and I have never noticed the giant telescope thats just sticking out of the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab

[@riptidedune]

Don’t think of it as “so and so facts I knew already!”, but “look at all these facts that I didn’t know!”

[@TheBreadPirate]

Now that is a glass half full attitude!

[@HyruleGamer]

I can't believe I only just found out the fact about the One Hit Obliterator... Nice!

[@Doodleanimations77]

Imagine being one of the devs who worked on one of these and like 4 years later people are still finding them

[@blubber109]

Glad you could get your channel back! And excited for the next video! 🍞 🦊

[@rtyuik7]

1:20(ish) - thats also one of the quickest ways to Kill a Stalnox, but you gotta pick up the eye at around 4:55am game-time...if the eye is "separated" when the clock hits 5am, the Stalnox will die instantly-- and not like "shot with an Ancient Arrow" instant, i mean its a Full Death: it drops monster parts, it adds the little star-mark (if youve beaten Ganon), it plays the "Hinox killed" fanfare...whereas if the eye is "together" (as in, ive seen it happen while the Stalnox was still trying to pop it back into its socket, but the eye was still in its hands) at 5am, then the Stalnox will just "deactivate" and collapse to the ground until the next night...

[@peepysprite]

I have dropped entire boulders on koroks before and only gotten a small "oof" out of them. They're just built different.

[@emmamiller.]

A lot of these just show you the attention to detail in this game

[@BrickTight]

I got a cool fact! did you know wile waring the monster masks if you dash they will make a monster sound such as, while using a boko mask it will make a boko sound, this works with all of them! plz note i dont know if this only works in a snowy region where I tested it.

[@joelcomer]

NEW BREAD VIDEO!!!! love these so much

[@BlaizeCrya]

This dudes videos are so high quality he should have more subs

[@RelicCipher]

The fact that Koroks will shiver uncontrollably when hit in Korok Forest is so sad

[@west3Dgaming]

You can no longer throw stalnox eyes into water to kill them in totk. It just floats and stalnox can swim

Happy vacation man you deserve it

[@jenniferchough]

Maybe someone else already pointed this out but when Zelda says “that cut doesn’t look too bad actually, at 5:44 she’s not looking at his arm, she looking at his forehead.” While the camera is panning up, you can catch her touching his forehead with her hand and then pull her hand away.

[@ChocolateMilkYT]

Did you know that when link is cooking with a cooking pot, you can hear him humming? I had never known this until a few days ago when I was cooking a bunch!

[@b.clarenc9517]

About the Koroks: they can only say "Oh no!" the first time you hit them. To hear it again, you need to go away (far enough or for a long enough time, I don't know) and come back.

[@tony2bettersalt]

Nah that “missing weapon” intro was super clever

[@charleshulbert4120]

the korok one is just them getting scared as if you pull your bow out they still shiver

[@kaptinkit1821]

Hi i have a couple fun facts for you! If you kill a fire keese with a torch it will light the torch on fire. If link has one foot on a slightly elevated surface like a small rock then his leg will bend to the height of the rock, but it doesn't look too comfortable. If you're in disguise with some, lets say moblins, if the moblin catches on fire from his own stupidity then he will start to attack you, even when you did nothing wrong.

[@chaicinnamon8989]

Fun video as always! Have a nice vacation!

[@blu_rae21]

In the next video you should mention the description of the rubber armor pieces it often says "its made of some ancient material called "rubber" and can't be found in this modern age."

This is the wackiest wildest facts I've ever seen. Amazing video as always Bro!

[@corrinflakes9659]

I think the 2nd ia cool as a design choice, if you’re playing in Pro HUD and want to notice Link’s noise level, likely you could be set into crouch mode for the purpose of stealth.

[@sirarchibaldcheese3408]

7:10 I quite literally learnt this just yesterday! when I wanted to prank a dead guardian

[@freedom8555]

2:37 this one is especially helpful if you mess up your inventory from doing a glitch

[@bob_3472]

[@princetbug]

3:24 and a similar coat, and a similar- uh... belt? cumberbun? wrap? whatever that white cloth is

[@mipmop6969]

2:35 i love how the person who made this meme obviously has never gotten all koroks, because it doesnt take over 200 hours (took me maybe 20-25 hours if you exclude all the other stuff i did during that time), theres 900 of them, and its actually spelt like "koroks"

[@mrcombustiblelemon2902]

Fact 12 can also be explained by the devs having one "link with injured arm" model and not wanting to make another one.

[@doommustard8818]

The safety signs aren't there when the shiekah are working on it in the flashbacks, so it's possible the gerudo added the signs after the fact because they were sick of watching people fall off of them.

[@Alchemyst326]

Talus Plateau isn't called that because there's a Talus ON it. That's what it IS.

[@M0rn1ng_star]

Can’t wait to know all of the useless facts about Tears of the Kingdom when it comes out :)

[@persebunny]

The Gerudo would know their mountains better so I can imagine they put up the scaffolding to make it safe for Shika researchers to excavate

[@FumblesWumbles]

HOLLLLDDDD THE F*** UP. I know it wasn't the focus of any point in the video, but I literally had NO IDEA that the big rock slabs at the Gerudo Tower can be KNOCKED OVER for traversal. What the actual hell?! I've f***ed about with Magnesis and the boxes to create a walkway and jump across the slabs until you're close enough where the high winds won't push you away from the tower. Make this 17 instead of 16 (Not so Useless) Tips Edit: Mind you I'm learning this for the first time in 2023. God bless the Zelda franchise and the Tubers like you still bringing this amazing content to light. Keep up the good work Bread!

Bullshit!

[@novaknavekey]

I figured out the tech lab symbol thing too! So cool. I also realised that after all the hours I put into the game, I should have noticed -_-

[@shakeski1802]

i assume fact 9 is the way they get water, there is a big flat body of water below hyrule all over and they just raise the water up to where its needed

[@TheBreadPirate]

Yeah, I think Gamespot talked about that in their videos. It's cool to see an example in game without glitches.

[@tako-sensei6072]

for fact 11, It used to be that you would teleport inside of the horse iirc. I feel like there was a use for it, but I don't remember what it was. I think it got removed at the same time as the "load a save on a horse while in ice water" glitch. again, not 100% sure though.
