Hey Limcube, I started watching your videos before Tears of the Kingdom released and I love watching your videos. It was fun to watch your theories and the slow grind of botw 100 percent until totk released. Keep up the good work and quality videos. Excited to see where the speed run is currently at!

Masahiro Sakurai said in his recent video about game development that letting players skip cutscenes is VERY important. I immediately thought of ToTK. That 4 minute opening is brutal on speed-runners.

@Vanished584 8 ай бұрын

Wow this is really cool to watch, Limcube. Ive always wondered how people speedrun Totk and how it 'works' becuase its never that simple by just watching. From personal experience (Speedrunning Borderlands: TPS) there is always a lot more action going on inside your mind then there is on-screen. I really hope you make more videos focusing around totk speedrunning, becuase I really feel like the potential is there. It'd also be fun to watch them.

@mobes8876 8 ай бұрын

An interesting thing about the Daruk amiibo is that it acts differently on GSI than after GSI. I was doing an amiibo only run and was confused why my Daruk amiibo wasn't dropping gemstones. Apparently if you use the Daruk amiibo on GSI before it is completed, they will have the chance to drop gemstones as a material. After GSI, the amiibo doesn't do that anymore.

@GKoopa 8 ай бұрын

In botw, all amiibo have several drop tables that they use depending on your game progress. I imagine this game does the same thing and beating the great sky island is the first trigger for different drops.

@lexalot8337 8 ай бұрын

As an indie game dev, I have to say the way nintendo constantly interrupts the player with zelda's nerd rambles is understandable from a slowing down the pace to build tension perspective, but pretty baffling otherwise I generally use the rule of thumb "if the player didn't interact with anything, don't interrupt them", and I think it could have been much better here if instead of forcing the player into a bunch of tiny cutscenes, zelda just inspected stuff herself while occasionally inviting link to come look at what she's looking at, or instead just let him run ahead and have her run after him I really think this is representative of a "you'll have only the curated experience we want you to" attitude at nintendo which can work at times (wind temple ascension), but can also fall miserably flat like it did with the intro section

@Limcube I really appreciate and that's absolutely true. It's amazing how after months of almost no optimizations, the game has seen so much new movement tech being found. Not even gonna start on the insanity that is shock arrow smuggle. Can't wait to see you in the top 10 limcube GL.

My guess for why the gannon fight trigger is gone on the army but not the bosses is probably because if you do everything in the game then the way opens right after the army fight so they probably just put the trigger after the army to save time.

Perfect time of making, I reset my completed game to restart, I had all 120 light roots and killed "the mummy" as well as had all sages, I had tons more caves to explore and shrines to find, but I had the robot and bird sages upgraded, and I did a dupe glitch for infinite diamonds at the robots depths entrance, it probably doesn't work anymore though, but I also duped weapons with a memory glitch, but the reason I restarted is all the glitches I used to win, I want to complete it the actual way
