Are you sure you "tried to lose some weight" or is that just one of the talking points? Because you don't look like you can afford to lose much weight before expiring.

@opnuul Год назад

i love this run. i love to imagine the in-universe experience for the npcs. it's so incredible when you think about it, link is visiting pocket dimensions, communing with strange gods in impercievable tongues, bending time and space, manipulating the very fabric of the multiverse of zelda wind waker, all in service of getting 14 small keys. it is a compelling, ridiculous end which is at once pedestrian and unbelievably heroic. well done, nice run, and great video

@MrMisterkrazy 28 дней назад

Well, in the final timeline, you start with 4 keys, spend 2, and get another four from Dragon Roost. In theory, if you didn't have to spend any keys, you could wind up with 8 keys from Dragon Roost total (by getting all four, then going back in time and getting them again). You'd also only need to go back in time once.

@Neptunequeen42 Год назад

No matter how many times I see it, it's always amazing that the game about the endless ocean that's too prohibitively large for you to accomplish anything at all in without a boat, was broken by a glitch that lets you manually swim across the ocean to any island you want. Some speedruns are just more poetic than others.

But still, it was also quite funny when he said "the dungeon will be added to this dungeon" haha (50:00) not necessarily to counter or overturn it being understandable that he made that mistake (or 2) but rather I think it's cool that it also inadvertently achieves that sort of flavor, rendering the mistake not being so bad and still agreeable in its own way Sorry if that's overcomplicating it. I tend to do that

@bramble553 Год назад

that locked door thing at the very end is really interesting, considering that in OOT, opening a locked door from behind will still consume a key, yet in WW the game only cares if you opened it from one side (although you still need a key for both sides).

@brliron6538 Год назад

Shoutouts to the editor, they did a great job for this video, especially the intro and the sadge Medli.

@ws04 Год назад

lmao linkus just casually starting MSS with one hand while also explaining it

@dankness420 Год назад

I’m not a WW runner, my only real exposure to it is through linkus/GDQ, but aren’t they both called manual super swims? (Pause less and with pausing?)

@biscuitz7422 Год назад

Yes, both are still manual super swims since the player is generating the initial speed necessary for the camera lock themselves. Doing unbuffered inputs at the start just saves a ton of time over pause-buffering the entire way if one can mash fast enough. To the best of my knowledge (also not a WW runner), the Outset super swim is the only MSS necessary in most runs since getting camera lock with the Wind Waker is faster (and easier) and HD uses Item Sliding once available, so everything else is a “standard” super swim… I’d check with the experts to be safe though lol :P

@bryanmulcare9083 Год назад

I think the hardest setup for any key to learn confidently in my opinion have to be early Earth temple because you have a lot time and it takes like 2-3 minutes to fully skip the the stone to enter earth temple. By the way good run Linkus7

@et0san Год назад

It has low% vibes but kinda opposite. High%? :D Was cool to watch! How likely is the key number to go up again? (I'd guess high, but only if people are still looking for ways to break the game nowadays :0)

@Ender_Onryo Год назад

My guess would be 16. The 4 keys from transferring the 4 back in time keys and then the 12 from the normal map. Since back in time seems to work by saving the keys that are currently stored for a given dungeon and idk if you can store a key from one dungeon and move it to another dungeon while keeping it stored. But that's just what I've gathered from watching this. Idk anything about the mechanics of the glitches for certain.

@Linkus7 Год назад

In theory with current knowledge, the max would be 15 Small Keys, but it is not humanly possible. To my understanding it’s requires memory corruption and messing with the ram with such precision that it’s TAS only, and not viable in any way for a human to perform. But hopefully in the future a human viable method could be found

Back in Time is SORT OF what the new TOTK Master Sword permanent durability glitch is, correct? It’s similar but doesn’t use the title screen since BOTW and TOTK don’t have a title screen save file that’s useable. So they use the beginning of the game on an autosave instead and achieve similar results
