How Speedrunners beat Tears of the Kingdom BLINDFOLDED

cheers for the upload!

Your content is king Linkus!

ayo?

He also established the raw meat meat club

Just wait til Crow is done mastering the blindfolded TOtK, and he then does a blind meat run.

@@michaelmahoney5677 you heard him

@@michaelmahoney5677 yeah he did it was it must’ve taken him long time to beat it

Fancy seeing you here

The rules say "upon grabbing Zelda's hand" and I'm not sure if that implies final input or the actual grab

@@stonerbland7621 the final input is a "Hold" prompt so time ends when you no longer need to hold the button, meaning it ends at the actual grab

Timing on audio cue is horrible for verification (audio is very easily delayed or out of sync). It also makes it harder to get an exact time.

all categories that beat game do end time on the first frame of the final hand clasp.

Hello Bubzia! Why no sm64 blindfolded 16-star sub-20 practice stream?

For sure! He's an incredible runner in all categories.

The arrow smuggle isn’t hard tho, he is still insane at the game, but he is not the best right now. He is at the 3 spot in normal any% and he has not completed a run. Also, all of his routing has been done for weeks with so much time and dedication 👏

@@DinoTechSR he clearly is the best right now. the only reason he is not #1 is because he got bored with having no competition and went back to botw and now blindfolded. he will be back to totk and he will hold the #1 spot as soon as he decides to do so.

not me causing that discord ping to happen :)

if it weren't for the fact roomie has the shared computer I would have too lol admittedly the instinct rose for half a second before logic broke back in.

eh, close enough

I hope these tips will help you! 1) If you can buy an 8bitdo lite controller (and upgrade the firmware to v1.03 or so), the movement stick and the camera stick become dpads where you can only press up, down, left, or right. If you hold up or down on the camera while moving Link, the camera angle should not change, even when moving forward or climbing obstacles. Link may climb obstacles at an angle and at once finished he may have his position changed from left to right by maybe a side hop or two (depending on the obstacle and its geometry), but the camera would still be locked behind him, so your up and down should still be the same. The controller is great at movement, but the buttons are much smaller than a Pro Controller. 2) If you attempt to throw an item, you can listen to how the item sounds like. Fire fruit will sound like theres fire in your hand, while holding a topaz will sound like electricity in your hand. This doesn't work with all items, but can work for elemental items. If you want specific items in front of your inventory, you can throw the item a few times until it becomes "an item you have used the most". Then in your inventory, there is a way to sort the items three times, where one of the times is dependent on how many times you've "used" an item. This can allow you push your favorite items to the front of the list in at least one of the three inventory sorts. 3) If you hold down the draw bow button, then press the scope button, then hold down the draw bow button again, you will get a consistent angle change upwards every time. Bow, Scope, Bow, Scope, etc. This video doesn't see the drawing of the bow because I do it too fast. This method was used in both tears of the kingdom as well as breath of the wild.

I think that to really comprehend Zonai device building your best bet would be to find someone with a 3D printer and modeling software, who can make the parts physical so you can assemble them. A local college might have students studying CAD (standing for Computer Aided Design) you could ask for. Another option is to contact a local makerspace. There are also RU-vid channels of people who focus on 3D printing that you can ask.

To be clear this is NOT me complaining about blindfolded runs. This is me lamenting how much time has passed and still how few games are accessible to blind folks

Who's point crow 😂 I found linkus on GDQ 😂

Already have different *ways & means getting a lot of rupees
