I saw a Games Radar article in my newsfeed about how someone collected every rock and I was like "That's insane! Who would do that?". Now it's all adding up
Bro, speed runners have no fun. You’ve 100%ed the game, you collected all the rocks. What’s left for you to do now, touch every single solid surface area including ones inside out of bounce area in the game?
It would require someone to create a mod that changes rocks despawn properties or how active objects work, and a beefy pc I think. He probably has the pc though.
For the people wondering why the spherical boulders are considered to be natural. If a rock is in a stream or river, the rock gets gradually ground down to a point where it is round. At that point it can roll with the current and erode from another side, causing the rock to get rounder and repeat the process.
@@scottishcheese13Yes, but those basalt platforms can occur naturally, provided there’s a place where lava and water meet- he recreated the conditions that lead to the rocks, but didn’t refine or carve them further in any way. I feel like it counts, or close enough, anyway
It's videos like this that help remind my that Tears of the Kingdom is one of the most insane games Nintendo has released, maybe ever. Like, there's an entire map, with 3 different tiers of world to explore, endless quests to complete, and a story mode, which already makes it one of Nintendo's biggest games ever. And then, there's just straight up G-Mod attached to all of it, so you can basically do anything you want on top of all of that.
i gotta say, i completely respect how smant/his editors are able to condense these long streams into much shorter videos. its super impressive because it doesn’t really feel like anything is left out and is also super digestible, not that i don’t still like long videos but still lol, very impressive :D
the cuts after something went wrong were perfectly timed. just enough time for smant to go "ah!" and then we get to imagine all the delicious chaos while keeping the pacing tight. incredible job
Damn it, this is why you don't EVER callout a speedrunner for playing a game too fast! I bet that in the next week, or even next couple of days, there's gonna be a new category for TotK called "Rock%"!
Also it just makes no sense, before speedrunning, the speedrunner enjoys the game in full, and then goes further. Speedrunners actually get infinitely more enjoyment out of games than your average player
This is perhaps the most in-character challenge for link yet. I can't imagine a timeline in which link would ACTUALLY get rid of the sheikah slate, for example, but I COULD see TotK!Link, in the middle of his quest, go "Hang on. I should make a vehicle out of every rock I can find."
In some universes Link is a physics breaking speedster who wakes up and stops 2 ancient tragedies in a couple hours each, in others he's a perfectionist who spends years on end not helping anybody and quite literally wasting his own time purely to say he did it.
I know it’s not the main focus of your comment but I don’t think Link got rid of the sheikah slate, he probably just. Gave it back to Zelda. Because it was hers, and Zelda probably gave it to Purah who used it to figure out how to make the Purah Pad (and even then there’s a couple reasons why it just isn’t as cool, such as Purah can’t figure out how to replicate those features yet, Zelda didn’t want those features on her Purah pad, they’re not on there because it’s a prototype, or the most agreed upon reasoning as to why nearly all of the sheikah tech was stripped from Hyrule, Sheikah tech is seen as Evil And Bad Again and at least magnesis is used by the Yiga so it does extend to the slate’s abilities)
Its intentional, clickbait. If he wanted too he could add "type" in the title but that wont be as massive of a challenge as collecting every single rock in the game. Edit: clickbait*.
@@Ron_Jambo_ A family friendly stream deserves family friendly semi-mocking comments... Or maybe I'm just weird. Scratch that, "Also, I'm just weird." XD
@@Ron_Jambo_ Because that's the joke. I don't actually think it'd influence children, but alcohol usage is the kind of thing that gets mentioned in maturity ratings, so I exaggerated it for the sake of humor. Sorry if that came off as a serious concern.
I understand the lack of "Marbled Rock Roast", seeing as after Gohma is defeated in the story, the delicacy goes extinct. However! Regular Rock Roast DOES in fact exist (It replaces the marbled variant), in fact, it is used in a questline and I believe later can be given to the chef for money.. or something? it's been awhile since I played.
They should make smallant thebrock collector a npc. Can u imagine seeing a guys travelling around and as the game progresses his vehicle becomes larger with rocks. Maybe he can sell star fragments and ores haha
this is so awesome, i loved this!! i always love to see tears of the kingdom challenge runs, it’s such a fun game that really showcases how creative people can get!!
I hate that mentality of thinking that speedrunning is killing the fun since speedrunning is what makes a lot of games fun for me. Finding unintentional skips and doing things quickly makes me happy, and a lot of people don't seem to understand that. What you did wasn't even really speedrunning when you first 100% TOTK, but the same things apply.
...people seriously don't realize that people have fun playing the game a different way from other people? ...stupid, just stupid. People should play games the way they find fun. and if yours is speedrunning, then do speedrunning.
speedrunning is for me literally the most beautiful love message you can send to developpers. imagine loving a game to a point u're ready to spend hundreds of hours completing it again and again to a point u know it almost perfectly. speedrunning give some games the replayability they didn't had
Besides, why is it that person's problem if you don't have fun? Are they like the fucking brother in 1984 who is watching everyone to ensure they have fun, and if they aren't then they call them out on Twitter.
Most speedrunners already played the game slowly at least once before speedrunning. It's what makes them realise they like the game enough to run it in the first place
I enjoy watching speedrunners specifically because i hate doing speedruns myself. I see the point of the person that left that tweet, for me its also less fun to just blast through a game. However i still admire the skill it takes to do so, so following speedrunners like Smallant is a great solution for me.
Can you collect every type of rock in Tears Of The Kingdom? Start of the video - The title End - Doug is now arguing with chat about going to meet up with Dwayne the rock Johnson.
When I read the title I thought you'd be doing like a speedrun of collecting all of the gemstones, flint, etc, as well as the unique talus hearts. I realized how foolish I was at 0:34
Honestly love to see people come together to do something fun out of spite. Because at some point, spite becomes irrelevant, things are fun because we decide to make them so and just enjoy ourselves. People who are like that are the best to be around. You might even say they rock!
There are lots of challenge runs(if a little less than botw), and of course the infamous straight line challenge, but other than that I agree that there is significantly less totk content these days.
Personally I just can't 100% the game. In BotW you could accomplish things just playing 15-30 minutes. In TotK I can play for 2 hours without feeling like I accomplished anything. I did everything in BotW other than collecting all Koroks (still collected enough to max out all inventory slots), but in TotK I'm only like 50% done with shrines and even less with everything else and I don't really feel like playing it. It's not like it's bad, but it just takes so long. I can play it for 2 hours and barely make any progress or play something else for 2 hours and actually do make significant progress.
3:10 - This reminds me of the scene in Armageddon where Ben Affleck is trying to make it back to the drill site and they jump over a big canyon with the thrusters lol.
this feels like the response to "oh you're a fan of rocks? NAME EVERY ROCK!" and the responce is "I'll do you one better, I'll SHOW YOU EVERY SINGLE ROCK!"

Only Smant could take a comment like that so seriosuly that he dedicates an entire stream to rock hunting. I respect Smallant for doing this. - a fellow rock lover/hunter
I love this video so much. Dude on twitter got angry about some made up shit and accidentally gave you a great idea. If he ever watched a video he'd realise you're ALWAYS having fun in these save some exceptions of SmallAnt's Luck GiftCurse
Really cool idea, if something similar ever happens again I would recommend holding something in midair with Ultrahand, climbing whatever you need to climb, then using Recall to lift the thing back into midair where you can once again grab with Ultrahand. FYI you don’t need to manually end Recall when grabbing something mid Recall, it happens automatically.
“These are going to be all rocks which are accessible from a completed save file.” Is it really a rock collection without the purdiest rock in the whole game? :3
Imagine being a stone talos and seeing a dude driving up in a cart made of your dead species, then he murders you, attaches your heart to his cart, and gleefully drives off into the distance
Speedrunners: Have fun challenging themselves to do something as fast as they possibly can This dude: gosh how dare these people enjoy the product they bought differently from me, smhing my head
"Speedrunners have no fun". Chief, they've literally had the most fun that you can possibly HAVE with a game. They did everything in the entire game, then said "Okay so I'm gonna create specific rules and try to beat it again to continue the fun"
For anyone curious, the Interactable Objects sheet used in the video was made by Phil, one of the top dataminers for TotK. I'd link it here, but the comment would get deleted. Shame that it's not linked in the description, but eh.
what a lovely rock couple😌 they both love eating stones! and the boyfriend even collects every type of rock for his girlfriend, aww🥺❤ i wish everyone to have such a great relationship!
Sometimes, words hurt, and you never know how deeply it'll cut a person. Othetimes, the other person says "that cut deep like scissors. well I choose ROCK", and then you're left with confusion

Only Smant could take a comment like that so seriosuly that he dedicates an entire stream to rock hunting. I respect Smallant for doing this.
- a fellow rock lover/hunter
I’m not even surprised at this point 💀
Fun fact: there are aproximately 13.000 rock rock-like objects in the entire game
16:01 went so hard
Dang bro seeing the future

Lucky Clover Gazette Exclusive: "The Hero of Hyrule runs over a woman, 'flees' the scene.
So *this* is the goofy ahh sidequest that Smallant has been on for the past month or so
I love this video so much. Dude on twitter got angry about some made up shit and accidentally gave you a great idea. If he ever watched a video he'd realise you're ALWAYS having fun in these save some exceptions of SmallAnt's Luck GiftCurse
Really cool idea, if something similar ever happens again I would recommend holding something in midair with Ultrahand, climbing whatever you need to climb, then using Recall to lift the thing back into midair where you can once again grab with Ultrahand. FYI you don’t need to manually end Recall when grabbing something mid Recall, it happens automatically.
Some kid; "What're you gonna do now, collect rocks?"
Smant; "THAT'S A GREAT IDEA!"
...
I love this community.
“These are going to be all rocks which are accessible from a completed save file.” Is it really a rock collection without the purdiest rock in the whole game? :3
Now I apologize if he's already done this, but here's an idea now: Get 999 of every item, no dupe glitches. Good luck if you do this!!

Violet: "I got a chocolate bar."
Patty: "I got a quarter."

Imagine being a stone talos and seeing a dude driving up in a cart made of your dead species, then he murders you, attaches your heart to his cart, and gleefully drives off into the distance
Speedrunners: Have fun challenging themselves to do something as fast as they possibly can
This dude: gosh how dare these people enjoy the product they bought differently from me, smhing my head
"Speedrunners have no fun". Chief, they've literally had the most fun that you can possibly HAVE with a game. They did everything in the entire game, then said "Okay so I'm gonna create specific rules and try to beat it again to continue the fun"
I just beat TOTK yesterday after a long pause and can finally watch all the videos on it. The fact you uploaded one on the same day is a blessing.
For anyone curious, the Interactable Objects sheet used in the video was made by Phil, one of the top dataminers for TotK. I'd link it here, but the comment would get deleted. Shame that it's not linked in the description, but eh.
Vaas from Far Cry 3: "Have I ever told you the definition of insanity?"
Me: yeah, it's this guy here
what a lovely rock couple😌
they both love eating stones! and the boyfriend even collects every type of rock for his girlfriend, aww🥺❤
i wish everyone to have such a great relationship!
Congratulations this is going to be a sub category it has to be i can't wait for the video going over the history of Tears of the kingdom Rock%
Sometimes, words hurt, and you never know how deeply it'll cut a person.
Othetimes, the other person says "that cut deep like scissors. well I choose ROCK", and then you're left with confusion
At 4:51 that was that one moment from the Lego Batman 2 game XD where joker tears apart Batman’s batmobile and then it’s just Batman on a chair 😂 that’s great.
If you could keep all the rocks at like a house or common area, and then leave knowing they'd still be there no matter what, that's the dream.
Some game dev somewhere is having the best day of his life after seeing someone appreciate the work he put into modeling those rocks
Hey SmallAnt, my names Nicholas I love your content and it brings joy to me. One time I was watching your videos my older cousin was interested and everytime I see him he mentions you and how we should watch your videos. Your content is amazing and your my favourite RUclipsr/Streamer thank you for making me so happy in hard times and keep up the great work❤
i actually respect how many rocks the devs put into this game
