It takes a special kinda of patience to answer age old questions like, “but why’s the text in Japanese?”

[@tylerlackey1175]

Zfg has been playing the same game for the majority of his life. I don't think hes low on patience

[@DanCicala]

I actually thought that question was fair in context. He mentioned a version had to be specially made with Japanese text while he was going over different things you could do in this version, and it's not a speedrun so faster text doesn't necessarily matter. It seemed to potentially imply that Japanese text was special for some other reason in this case.

[@lequinow]

@@DanCicala The comment also included a winky face, which could imply they were simply messing with him.

ZFG: This is sort of part-LOTAD and part-TAS, this was still mostly human play with lots of savestates, but I did a lot more TAS-like stuff in this so I went with just calling this a TAS. Me: MOTAD Edit: Apparently chat already came up with that around 11:56. -Great- minds think alike, I suppose.

[@JMGO1999EternalMajorKakoEscoby]

I'm in the Thumbnail. FeelsGoodMan This was a Great LOTAD!, It's very interesting how some differences in this version helps in the progression of the run. Let's hope another early build leaks some day in the future. Imagine it, version 0.8. Lol

[@stuartdavis8979]

I love the longer zfg videos on KZbin. As soon as I see one that’s an hour+ I download it and it’s my entertainment for the week. Hope to see more long videos. Even an unedited alt account on KZbin for stream vod dumps would be a god send.

12:50 You'd think watching and playing oot for years would get boring after a while but this is one of the most intersting videos you made

[@Tustin2121]

What he said at the end there: this is why I hate it when gamers so casually say things like “did they even test this? Lol” and other bs comments slagging off game developers. Like, no, they tested the game to hell and back to make sure the normal players had a good time with their games. Meanwhile, speedrunners have had literal DECADES of time playing this game and understanding how the remaining glitches work on such a low level that they can exploit the glitches to their benefit. No development team has decades of testing time.

[@RyanRioga]

I'd actually love to see this as a category extension for GSR. Been doing GSR runs a bit recently and this looks super cool. Hopefully there's enough interest to get this added up, I'd love to try this out

[@Stexen]

[@ilovethelegend]

1:07:45 literally the only "bug" in OoT I can think of off the top of my head that might affect casual play is the power crouch stab; and even then, it's only noticeable over several subsequent tests (Why did this move kill the boss in three hits last time, but six hits this time?) or if you do something like break a rock with the megaton hammer and then crouch-stab the next one with your sword. Another thing to bear in mind is that a lot of these bugs were found from the entire community trying to break the game FOR YEARS.

[@ori.g4mi]

What about the bug where you can overwrite bottles over other items? Because I discovered that one as a kid, it's really easy to do and it permanently ruined my save.

[@ilovethelegend]

​@@ori.g4mi I was gonna be a smartass, but I'm just gonna leave it at "I don't believe you."

[@as3609]

@@ilovethelegend I think the only glitch I discovered by accident as a kid was broken deku stick - although didn't figure out then how I did it

[@anon6514]

Isg is one of the few tricks in oot i can pull off consistently. I bet there were players who achieved it accidentally but never realised it's true potential because they broke it immediately by button-mashing in an attempt to fix their camera. Crouch stab is a weird one, because it's clearly intentional yet not at all obvious... Didn't other Zelda games have a similar gimmick? Maybe it was a call-back. idk.

[@ScAr_wlvrne]

@@anon6514ISG was definitely achieved on accident by people. I’ve gotten it on accident, even knowing what it is. I crouch stabbed grass in the Deku Tree on a new playthrough and collected Deku Seeds for the first time, giving me ISG lol

[@mr.mikaeel6264]

That was rly cool! And on GSR a category that is doable for ppl who don't play OoT professionaly for 8+ h a day but are Zelda geeked enough to want to be able to keep up with some of the cool stuff.

[@hoodedman6579]

Fun fact: DK64 also does the screenshot pause screen thing, except it has a noticeable delay to when the screenshot was gotten so its the screenshot is from like 1/3 of a second before the pause.

[@jameshalford1180]

righteous run, duder! double props to ye!

[@noodletribunal9793]

15:01 no one asked but im going to nerd out a bit. spoken japanese is actually the fastest language, but it's grammar and sentences are often longer, resulting in it not being the fastest language to convey information. HOWEVER, since this is text only, japanese gets a major "kanji buff". behind any given complicated looking character, there could be 1-4 syllables. for example, 扉 is "tobira" or とびら. because of the ability to not have to display every syllable, text based games are faster in japanese than in english. and while much of japanese uses those kanji, it doesnt always, which means every syllable is still displayed half the time which is why the chinese version of oot is even faster, since chinese is 100% kanji. also, games for younger ages like older pokemon games omit kanji entirely which removes the kanji buff, so i wonder if pokemon is still faster in japanese. my guess is no.

[@DWolrd]

Thats a real great demonstration. This version is really interesting. And luckly they just are combine too well with a great category like gsr. Awesome

[@TheLaughingMax]

49:45 I thought I have seen every single secret room over the years of playing a watching oot....yet I learned something new today.

[@wolizuka]

VC skipped the bottle before the hookshot jump in forest, because it wasn't worth it just for the hookshot jump in DC, but now that we can jump in forest, taking the bottle is actually faster by around 30s

[@JoshuaHedrick666]

Thanks ZFG for another great run

[@brandobatel]

@ZFG, If this run is a pre-released .9 cart, why do they use the updated mirror shield design texture? (Sorry if i missed an explanation on it)

[@bramble553]

he explains it during the Twinrova boss. ZFG's 0.9 is modified onto the Wii VC version, which means it uses the 1.2 onwards texture instead of the pre-1.2 one.

[@DavidJCobb]

per 34:30 the wii VC emulator swaps out the textures. it detects that you're playing some version of ocarina of time, and decides to render its own texture instead of whatever's actually in the game

[@LuisMartinez-ok5uy]

I've just finished reading the doc. Wow, that's a hell of new glitches! How did they manage to find all of them in just 3 days?

[@TheOriginalTraz64]

Huh, I always assumed GSR meant gold skulltula rewards

[@IanZWhite00]

yah if someone had told me it meant “Ganon Source Requirement” in chat I would’ve assumed they were memeing

[@jmarvins]

GSR is the category that we used to call "No Item Manipulation/Wrong Warp" (No IM/WW), but now that there are even more things that are banned it was renamed

[@TheUltimateRare]

lots of things can be different things. like BotW is both Breath of the wild AND Bottom of the well.

With how this was done, not fullly TAS but with TAS elements, you could call it Half-TAS'd

Btw, both VC and N64 optimally get cucco bottle for doom jump and jungle jump. Count just didn't want to do jungle jump lol. Anc yea, doing early bombs on N64 is slower now because of getting the fairy (i think thats the reason, it might not be, but i know Tim timed bombs early to be slower by around 10-15s).
