Thanks Bill for unloading another mm randomizer, unknowingly you've been helping me for about 6 years now especially after losing both my mum and dad at only 32 years of age . I don't think you how much you help us. Please take of yourself bill I have mental problems too we gotta stay strong that's all we have in the end.
For me, it’s not so much the randomizers themselves that I look forward to; it’s the fact that it’s a several hour long video!😂 love whenever you do them regardless though!
@@GoodOldDaysGaming I agree, in longer videos you tend to diverge from talking about the game, and speak more about general topics or other stuff and I love that, even when you say and think that it's not interesting or it's a boring topic, it's not. The talk is enjoyable . It's not that I don't enjoy it when you focus on the game, I do, and sometimes I prefer those videos, but it requires that I actively watch the video and can't do other stuff while listening to it. In randomizers you diverge from the game a lot more because you know all the game, I guess you just autopilot it and speak about other stuff. But do whatever you like doing more, maybe the off-topic commentary it's not even the reason why the randomizers do well and it's about being a Zelda game like you said at 1:28:35. In my case, I'll keep watching because it's good anyway.
I used to wonder “how could anyone get tired of playing randomizers?? They look like so much fun” After playing numerous randomizers on my own, I can understand how you’d want to play different games/take breaks
Bill, I’ll say this as I’ve said in the past. Thank you, for the videos and the thoughts you share. You’ve been a big part of my life over the years and your content has always got me through the hardest of times. I could be in the worst of moods and your videos will bring a smile and laugh out of me when I didn’t think anything could. So again, thank you. You’re amazing.I hope you have a wonderful new year and take care of yourself please. No matter what you choose to do in life, we support you.
One thing about your Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask randomizers that I really like is the way you play them. You are not using those insane speedrunner glitches to break these great games. There are som many youtubers who do "randomizer speedruns", "randomizer races against another" or other crazy stuff now, and less who play these randomizers in the classic way, and that's what I like about yours. And I think a lot of other people like it too. It's like playing these fantastic games again and at the same time a whole new experience each time! Thank you so much for doing this!
Thank you Bill, your videos help me with my anxiety and feels like I'm chilling with a good friend snacking on cheetos and cola and staying up late at night. I've been watching your randomizers for the past 2 years and I thank you again so much because this is my therapy. Please have a wonderful New Year!
So weird to be one of the first in a video that's bout to get hundreds of thousands of views. Bill, I think this may be my favorite one of these you've done so far!
Mushrooms I find are far more effective in treating depression. Psilocybe Cubensis to be specific... I'm terrified that a dissociative like Ketamine is being used instead, they market it as a psychedelic but it's not. Don't lose hope or give up... I've beaten mine with the former. We love you Bill!
It is infuriating to me that they act like ketamine is a psychedelic. Though I have been prescribed it for pain in the past and it did still help my pain, depression, and anxiety. Thats probably just because I was high though. It didnt have the lasting effects Ive experienced from true psychedelics like psilopsybin mushrooms and LSD. Ive also gotten relief from MDMA for helping deal with trauma. *disclaimer, I strongly recommend people stay away from all drugs without medical supervision or if youre an adult and only smoke cannabis products. Kids, as a recovering addict, I can confidently say that drugs are even worsr than youve heard and not ever worth it. If youll excuse me, its time to roll another J before bed. Much love, peeps.
Happy New Year, Bill! I hope your medication has been treating you well into this year. I've struggled with depression for years myself. Whether you're doing randomizers or other games, I'm always down to tune in. Appreciate the content, keep it up ( as long as it doesn't become a stressor of course! ). Regardless, you'll always get support from us down in the comments no matter what. :)
Hey there, love watching your randomizers, inspired me to play some of my own :D I really enjoy your commentary as well. Hope this isn't too forward, but for you (or anyone reading this comment) I highly recommend a book called Lost Connections by Johann Hari. Changed how I think about life and depression but the book provides evidence too for points made which I loved and has atleast helped my headspace. No worries if its not for you but thought I'd share anyway :) Keep up the great work
Thanks for keeping me company during my afternoon once again, Bill. I know you aren't a fan of your randomizers so it was a surprise and a treat to get one more before the end of the year. It was a lot of fun and I hope you were able to vent and process during your recording. If you are up for suggestions for smaller content while you are waiting for Tears of the Kingdom to drop, Bug Fables is a great indie Paper Mario like game and the Blossom Tales series (there's two) are super fun Zelda clones in the style of Link to the Past that I think you'd really enjoy. There's also the Stardew Valley Expanded mod that you could do for another chill but different run through of Stardew. Whatever 2023 holds for you and the channel, I hope nothing but the best for you!
Randomly stumbled across this and you've given me a hit of nostalgia from early Nintendo Caprisun Your content is pretty great, I hope you feel better soon with your mental health dude :)
Hey man. I come back to your videos periodically and it always feels like chilling with an old friend. I know times are tough lately but you are awesome, keep at the content! There's ups and downs in everything, and as bad as things may seem now, they can always improve! Thanks for the content! 🔥🔥🤟
Thanks for commenting about the fact that many people don't look at the playlist section. I spaced it like a year ago when I was finishing school and am back at your videos (and RU-vid in general). Now I'll have to look at all your past content for my relaxing time.
@goodolddaysgaming i have watched pretty much every video you have made since i found you a couple years ago. i love seeing the old games, but i love the new ones you have played as well. your one of my favorite youtubers and no matter what you do with the channel, ill be here watching.
Thanks Bill for putting yourself through another randomiser for our entertainment, I hope special K treats you real well because the world needs your amazing ability to flip voices and delivery on a dime, damn entertainment gold.
I'll say this Bill, if you decide to take an extended break/call it for your channel I'll miss it for sure. I hope you continue making content but then again I perfectly understand moving on
you're not the only one. Great Bay Temple is my favorite out of the N64 titles. Stone Tower Temple is 4th for me because of the Elegy of Emptiness. If it wasn't for that song it would've been my second favorite dungeon
I love your goofy disposition bill there have been occasions when you've managed to make me smile when nothing else could you're an amazing person bill don't ever forget that.
I tried to replay MM recently, and was impressed at the updated visuals on the Switch version, so I even purchased a subscription just to access it. And still couldn't be arsed to play it. Decided I really wanted to just find a playthrough with commentary. Nothing was sticking and I put yours on just for shits and giggles. And I love it. You've scratched my MM itch. I love your stupid-in-a-good-way commentary and the whole concept of this randomised version. You have a great voice to listen to as well, some peoples voices really irritate me but yours doesn't. Such fun. Thank you for uploading!
Just like everyone else, it's not just the randomizer that I love. I love the long videos. Plus, anything you play in the Zelda series is always a joy to watch!
Well hey! Just when I was needing a randomizer to fall asleep to today, I dont even know when I started watching your randomizers and videos, its been years. Always makes me smile when I see a new video :)
I love watching your randomizers! I also would love to see you redo the Banjo Games again! I would watch them over and over...also all of the Paper Mario Games! Keep your chin up! I'm a fan 😁
Just wanted to say your the reason I started doing MM randomizers not only is this my favorite game of all time but see you upload these makes my day bill.
I hope you don’t knock yourself down this year. I love your channel and your content mostly because of you Bill! Just keep trying new things and see what works! I know you’ll find a way!
Thanks again for another Majora's Mask randomizer video Bill! Truthfully, I know it must be getting rather dry for you but genuinely from the bottom of my heart, thank you for feeding my nostalgia cravings with one of my favorite childhood games
WAIT WHAT !? i feel like i seen this one before to day ,,, dam it bill you made me say my catch phase XD , PS BIll to me you're like a distant friend who videos keep me updated on how you doing , i know you wont believe is but i do feel you have never ( in Good Old Days Gaming's life) made a bad video, and your personal approach has Helped me and other i know with the thing we go through. You remind us that we are not alone Thank you for that , and Hope This new year bring you all you deserve
I'm not sure if my opinion means anything, but I found your channel years ago because of your randomizers and Zelda Let's Plays. It was always nice to see the game mixed up every playthrough see how it ends up while you expertly play it. I've beat OOT before (Took 60 hours) and never bet Majora's Mask, but I'm amazed at how well you can play it. You're much more lively and original than a lot of the other people who play it. Despite how well they can do it too. I just feel so nostalgia when watching your videos, it feels like I'm back in 2000 again, when I first played these games as a kid and ends up losing track of time because I'm so busy watching your videos, I won't watch anything else for a while. Even if you do resort to just 1 random per month, at least we got something to look forward to. Also, I've seen the settings for these Randomizers and I know for OOT you could potentially make it so that you could create true randomized seeds that would only take 1.5-3 hours long instead of 5-6 hours (Like a rush, with all keys taken out, all cutscenes removed, etc.), keeping you from tiring out. Anyways thanks for all of the videos man!
Yay I didn’t even realize you’d uploaded this yet- I am echoing the sentiment that I really just enjoy when your videos are long and rambly. I can’t wait to watch!
Thanks Bill Really love your content, especially OoT and MM randos We all go through tough times but the important thing to remember is there is always something better down the road waiting for us. Looking at the comments, you help alot of us with your content. I always look forward to these Randos, your commentary is always top notch So again thanks man. Keep going 💪
so peculiar you mentioned special k microdosing cause I was actually talking about considering doing it for depression this past week! I can't wait to hear your progress with it and if it helps you cause I've tried 4 different anti anxiety or antidepressants and they didn't work for me/weren't right for me. I wish you luck and thank you for the randomizer ❤️
I just watched this for the first time in May and this three-and-a-half hour MM Rando has over 102K views on it, probably among your highest singular MM Rando videos if I had to guess. I don't know how that actually translates to "actual minutes viewed" for you, Bill, but that's more views than many ZFG OOT Rando videos, and those are a fraction of the length (20-40 mins avg) _and_ he's got twice as many RU-vid subs _and_ it's OOT _and_ he actually intentionally speedruns it. While I'll definitely watch a GoldenEye or Perfect Dark series here from you because I love those games in particular and I enjoyed your past playthroughs, IMO you're _the_ "MM Rando Guy." His channel is pretty singularly focused on OOT and OOT-related content, though, but he seems more focused on Twitch streaming and using RU-vid as mainly a platform for edited summary videos on one channel and mostly raw VODs on another, so because of the regularity with which he streams the channels get fairly regular content and he has that mostly built-in audience. I don't know your Twitch situation, and by the time I've written this I don't even know if you've officially found that normal job you said you were considering looking for. All I know is that there are people who pay ZFG, Linkus, gymnast, etc to stream playing OOT on Twitch on a regular basis. I'm not one of those people because I'm unemployed and have no income at the moment, but I make websites and fonts and provide other software programming and design services. What I can say for certain is that I'm going to binge watch the recent vanilla MM playthrough in the next day or two and I'll almost certainly enjoy it partly because it's MM and partly because it's a Bill playthrough of MM.
been watching ya for a while now and really enjoy your channel and everything you do the way randomizers are growing morre and more and your biggest videos are the randomizers take advantage of that your an amazing dude and I can relate to a lot happy new year and enjoy!
Hey Bill! Started watching your videos a year or two ago and I’m very thankful to have come across them. Your very honest and open commentary is always appreciated and it makes me feel as if I’m talking to a friend. You’re awesome, man. I hope that your channel gets boost this year. You deserve it! Edit: you also sparked in me a new love for the Metroid series, especially Super Metroid!
Bill, I know that you struggle with life sometimes, and have hard seasons- but I am always so pleased to see you post. it's like having a long-time friend ring you up. I know the word of a stranger doesn't mean too much, but I've always considered you to be a great guy and I look forward to great things coming in your life. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, A.
I love watching these videos of you talking about you experiences. You can make the content you want, but many of us enjoy your conversations in these MM videos. It’s felt less about the Majoras mask randomizer and more about getting to know you better as a person. I’m always pleased when you make these randomizers, but you do you bill. I hope things get better for you from here onwards!
Been watching your videos for a couple years, I’ve really enjoyed the content you’ve made. Hope you’re doing well man, there aren’t a lot of genuine people like you left on this site
Bill.... We, your audience, know that you go through your "rough times". Know that we're with you, and support your efforts!! You really are a good guy, I genuinely enjoy your "real talk" commentary, and will always enjoy your playthroughs.... Especially MM randos!! Stay strong, bud!!
More feel good, easy watching fun from Bill! If you're sick of doing these randomisers, just stop. Don't feel you're forced to do these if you're over them. I like them, but they're not the be-all and end-all. I'm just gonna say thanks. Your videos have helped me through some rough patches. Like how a wholesome, home made dinner can help to put everything right after a bad day, your videos just help me to feel better. All your friends and family are lucky to know you, and we're lucky to have your channel. Cheers man! Hope the new year is a good one for you!
Love your work Bill. Im always keen to watch the randomizers you put out, partly because I love Zelda and partly because you have great commentary. I know you don't really like doing them anymore so thank you for the fan service.
Happy 2023 to you as well. And don't be upset the ramdomizers are in such a high demand. It's just that for some reason the randomizers got that "hanging around with a friend" vibe, and I really enjoy that. Thanks for the content and stay healthy.
Happy New Year Bill! Lovely to see another randomizer from you. I hope you had a fantastic holiday season. I'm going to make myself some popcorn, sit back with my embroidery, and watch this whole damn thing! Love from Ontario, Canada.
Melee Falco is the Goat. Thanks so much for uploading these videos, the randomizer's are such a nice way to refresh a classic, nostalgic game. Appreciate you brother
If you’re looking for good Springsteen live performances, the Hammersmith Odeon ‘75 concert is fantastic. It was a few months after the Born to Run album was released, and it’s got some all time great recordings on it.
My dude loved this run! Always thought rando MM would be a pain but you've reminded me it's only as difficult as you make it! But honestly, thank you for your videos, they are always great to watch and love your anecdotes, me and my daughter use "Ya dope" all the time thanks to you it's one of her fave meme sayings, would hate to see you fade out man, you do really good content! Best of luck in the new year! I will keep watching!
Gotta admit, never thought I’d feel this comfortable standing at a major crossroads. Watching my tried and true favorite game accompanied by a familiar voice dealing with similar life choices definitely made a huge contribution to the aforementioned comfort. For that, I thank you Bill. I’m going to make a gamble on the unknown, I hope to find out which devil you make a deal with someday soon. Cheers.
Thank you for the Mitch Hedberg references throughout the years Bill! I love that you know who he is! He was my mothers cousin, and it blows me away how much more famous he became after his passing. Keep that in mind as you move forward with your channel. You are loved and people look forward to your uploads. Stay consistent and keep your head up buddy.
I love watching these randomizers it's become a ritual by me and my friends to watch every new episode thanks man for all the videos and especially the randomizers
More people need to watch you bro I think I rewatch you the most out of any other RU-vidr and I love watching your videos people need to appreciate you more and you have such a great personality and this is my favorite game of all time (borderlands 2 close second) and it’s the best thing to watch your videos
This is my first time watching you, and I laughed when you talked about jigsaw puzzle videos because I was debating between watching this or a someone putting a jigsaw together 😆 I'm not very far in, but this is looking like a good randomizer!
Hi! New subscriber here! I dont know if you will read this,but here goes! i found your videos when looking for wind waker randomizers to have on in the background while i sleep! I struggle a bit with anxiety and possibly undiagnosed adhd, so having something on always help. I love your insight on things, and how transparent you seem to be about your mental health. It’s definitively a thing i really wish more people talked about! I realize a lot of people come for your zelda videos (as did i, im a massive zelda nerd) but i’m really looking forward to scrolling through your library of videos, and also looking forward to see what new videos you decide to make! Wish you the best! I really fell in love with your content quickly, and you deserve so much more!
Bill always like your content, and your video uploads always give me something to look forward to. I really liked your Skyrim play through and would be happy to see more of it. Also would be happy with another jet force Gemini play through. Truthfully I’m happy with any content you put out and with your commentary. Thank you Bill and thank you for your Awesome channel👍
Love all of your content bud! keep going! For some reason your content hasn't been showing up in my feed. I've got a bit of a backlog of yours! I miss the good old days of time splitters/ MM. I know that some channel stagnation can make you feel down. I feel like if you do what you love and show us your passion, it will do well. Worst you could do is try and fail. best is you try and it works. Shoot your shot bud!
‘one last time’ awhile back, bet this will still be great though, try not to force yourself to do things youre sick of, also subnautica had an update to be like below zero so you could replay it
Happy New year Bill! It's been an age, catching up your vids lately. Re you Treatment. Yes, it's meant to drip down (tastes like snowy coins to me). That's a sign it's gone where it should. Just your nose tubes doing what your gut tubes would instead. NMDA antagonists are fascinating in this regard, they help regulate everything from Dopamine, your GABA (the 'break pedal' of the brain), N-M-Aspartame itself is a notably irritating stimulating neurological compound, which is what it's antagonising (stopping). Usually surges under stress, and causes stress to the body. I could waffle for hours about psychotropic medicines. But this could well be a game changer for you. It takes a week or two I find. Then it becomes distinctly better. Particularly if you're Rx'd the smaller daily doses vs the one two three larger then smaller daily (regimes aren't standardised internationally yet). Basically it stops your unhappy tetchy chemicals, which let's your good vibe ones do they're job better.
In addition to this, the 1,2,4-GABA-pentin receptors are highly modulated when under "normal" depressive conditions. Ketaminic treatment is very useful for muffling these receptors, whose overactivity tends to stimulate the gamma-hydrotryptophan moieties of our lesser transitional oxymethionine regulators. Bill, if you are reading and following, don't become discouraged with your treatment. I know the abject distaste in taking the medication can be off-putting, but remember that the demongolation of your µ-polyamine pathway is crucial to restoring the quality of life that so few are able to retain past their late childhood. Cheers!
Bill, I'm just catching up on this and most videos on your channel. I wish i had a magic answer for how to help your channel succeed. Idk what the trick is to get the algorithm to work. Just like you, i go thru ups and downs where I'm on and off youtube a lot. Regardless of where your channel goes, you've helped so many people (like me) feel less alone through the pandemic and beyond, while enjoying some fun gaming content. Keep on, keepin' on. You rock.
Thanks for another randomizer! I’ve always enjoyed watching your randomizers and I’m always excited to see a new one! Also another thing, your my favorite RU-vidr!
Love seeing the 007 goldeneye randomizers. I know there might not be too many versions of it, but just hearing you get mad at certain points is great. Plus I would not mind watching you play like vice city, San Andreas, or the older halo games.
