Arcus is actually recorded some mario game when he shortly played it on nintendo wii or wii-u. I'll know that very well because I'm watched all his videos because I'm 100% Arcus fan!
Y'know, even though Arcus is one of my favorite speed runners, watching him play this was absolutely agonizing at times, especially that first shrine, my GOD. 🤣
Looking at you playing calls to memory when I was used at looking at my brother playing all afternoon. The nicest memories I have of those days spent on console. Keep this up man!
Ive been playing this for 6 years. its so fun to watch you start from the beginning and learn how to play! i can wait for TOTK so i can start a new one
I played this game about a year and a half ago - took my time with it & it took almost 9 months to get through. I found this to be an awesome Zelda title! I also thoroughly enjoyed the cooking mechanic & it improved my cooking IRL. Have fun Arcus!
I found every time Arcus giggled to himself over the game so endearing and made me remember my first (and so far only) BotW playthrough that I have no choice but to continue watching.
My kids (and I) quote you a lot. My kids (and I) love BOTW. It’s so strange seeing you play a modern cinematic game, but with your vast experience of playing lots of simplified NES games I can’t wait to finish this video and hear all your observations.
Didn’t think I would see the day where Arcus would play a modern game, but he picked a good one. Hooah gonna make it through ahh. My daughter loves to imitate Arcus.
Love the switch up Arcus... This is a much newer game than what I know your use to, but this is a great game and I think you'll enjoy it! Can't wait to watch you play it
I just wanted to add a big thank-you for kinda describing what you were doing as the game started. Much appreciated. Your comments and descriptions enhance my enjoyment. Again, great playthrough.
@@120420 If I’m understanding you correctly… I was referring to the number of games on his personal Switch. Not the number of games in the Switch’s library. So many good games on the system, it’s no wonder my backlog is insane.
One of the most over rated games of all time. Boring empty open world, only a few types of enemies, All weapons are disposable and break, horrible frame rate drops, annoying puzzle dungeons that all look the same and only give you a fraction of an upgrade, no actual dungeons with rare items to find. Hands down one of the worst Zelda games ever made.
@@gremlin5813 Fair points. I really enjoyed BotW, but I prefer most of the other Zelda games. Open world games are fantastic for 1st playthrough, but almost all the magic is gone on future files. I still find myself going back and replaying the older games because they're just more fun with less running around.
@@gremlin5813 Biggest problem I had with BOTW was the lack of both dungeons and catchy music. I wouldnt even put it in the top 5 Zeldas overall for me.
Thanks for uploading this. Couple years back I went looking for the vods hoping to rewatch it but they were gone by that point. Would be nice to rewatch some of the Dragon Quest 11 playthrough as well.
It is so weird watching some new players completely not get it. This was especially egregious since he picked up the sledge hammer that is clearly there as a hint "hey, hammer... stone...", proceeded to stasis the Boulder and ignored the in- your- face "Hit" prompt. Then, he took ages to see that hitting the rock under stasis would move it (even though the game says that explicitly when you pick the rune) and then spent such a long time hitting the _other_ rock.... I keep imagining game designers looking at these reactions and thinking "did we do something wrong here?". What other clues could the devs put in here? I honestly don't see any... I guess some people just have terrible memory to not remember what they just read 1 minute ago, or they are just not intelligent enough for the puzzle. At least he figured out, in a convoluted manner, the draw bridge later.
I don’t think I’ve ever watched a 5 hour RUclips video before 😅 so yeah, much enjoyed. Probably the closest I’ve ever felt to playing this for the first time again.
I went back to replay botw and it's just not the same as the first time I played it. It's great watching it through a fresh pair of eyes. I hope arcus uploads more playthroughs
I’m so sad you’ve never played ocarina of time lol I honestly think it’s way better than breathe of the wild. I just started following you because I watched your marble madness speedrun though and love your channel. Binging your videos lol
I've watched both Ocarina Of Time and Wind Waker. Would you be able to change the difficulty and-or the control scheme in the options menu, possibly through the select button? How't that for old-school. Still enjoying this playthrough.
Howdy 🤠🤘💯and I'm hoping your enjoying the game. I have a lot of fun with all the Zelda titles as a whole. Have ya tried any Wind Waker? Man that game is just timeless. I noticed you play alot of Zelda 1.. all of them are a hoot. Lol. Happy gaming to ya. Been subbed to you for a few months and figured I'd chime in... THIS GAME IS BEAUTIFUL
What do you get for interacting with those cows or Big Moos, whatever they are? I thought they might be Link's companion but now it looks like you just encounter them throughout the world. Also, that low-pitched Beep or Neep sounds like a giant frog. Are those things allies or enemies?
Who else was watching and shouting "don't go there, get that, search the guardians, where are you going, what are you doing, put it away, aim higher, pick up the arrows!"?
![Giving it another go! - Breath of the Wild [1]](/img/1.gif)
I don't think I've ever seen Arcus play a modern game.
That was my first reaction too lol!
I was just going to say that. Lol
Same
It feels like I entered an alternate reality where Arcus plays something other than NES!

Not many Switch games, but a stellar selection of games with what you do have. Touché!
Not many Switch Games? LMFAO. Sure Buddy, Sure!!!

This is the blind playthrough I've been looking for.
Tears of the kingdom coming in 20 days, so excited.
What a Heck-ee-doo of an intro! I was laughing at a lot of parts. Love how you discover and play games and this is an absolute HOOOWAH of a start!
a heck-ee-doo? are you fuckin' serious
SO COOL to see you play this Arcus! Time for an Adventure!
Most wholesome gamer on YT and the only one I'll allow my son to watch. Love this guy.
Wow, not NES? Never thought I'd see it
One of the greatest games of all time.

Genuinely suprised seeing arcus step off his love of 8-bit to continue his love for zelda. True zelda fan at heart.
Watching him totally not understand the easy stasis puzzle in the temple made me want to pull my hair out.

I’m sure in my gaming history I’ve done plenty of dumb shit. I just haven’t streamed it. 😂
Oh. Poor naive Arcus who said: "I like the rain" in botw. He didn't know what would come 😅
Arcus, the one and only! I thoroughly enjoy your videos. 👍
Thanks for another casual playthrough, Arcus. And an unboxing to boot. Fun is being had!!
Looooooved watching you play this during Covid times
Remember not long when i subbed to your channel, you had 3-4000 subscribers. You’ve come a long way and doing great 👍
This is just where he backs up his Twitch streams too. Amazing that he is at 80k.
Love the unboxing of a modern game 😂
It feels weird having a nes speedrunner playing a switch game
Woo hoo hoo! Arcus done blessed us with another Casual Playthrough!
I don’t think I’ve ever watched a 5 hour RUclips video before 😅 so yeah, much enjoyed. Probably the closest I’ve ever felt to playing this for the first time again.
Great to see a great man greatly enjoying a great game.
chillest dude in gaming
I love Zelda, love Arcus and yet absolutely hate BOTW. So I actually have a reason to watch this.
This sure is a treat! I’d watch you play anything. Lol
That look on Arcus face is priceless, modern game and he looks like someone booting up a computer for the first time. 🤣👌👍👍👍👍
I love watching Arcus play new games! I haven't played much of this game so its as if im exploring with Arcus. 🙏
Anyone else biting their lip every time he picks up one loot from a bunch? :D
This has been a very enjoyable watch! I'm looking forward to seeing more!
Same. Waiting with bated breath.
Watching Arcus, remembers me when I first played this game.
I wanna see Arcus' Animal Crossing Island
I went back to replay botw and it's just not the same as the first time I played it. It's great watching it through a fresh pair of eyes. I hope arcus uploads more playthroughs
The begin of an era
I think this stream was years ago right?
I remember seeing that in twitch
The first hours of botw are quite special as you are learning tons of tricks
Holy shit. I've never seen you play anything modern
"That was a good smash"
Indeed it was a good smash, a different smash but still familiar.
Unreal athleticism
Any plans for a new BOTW video? My kids wanted me to ask you.
I’m so excited for this video
This is fun to watch.
This is a welcome video. Great video Arcus!
I'd love to watch Arcus have a play-through of the dragon warrior/quest game he has
Wow! Arcus is done history now because he came out of the 8-bit world.
ˢᵗᵒᵖ ᶦᵗ
I like watching you bro the cowboy runner yeeee hayyyy
How have you not played Ocarina of Time!!? 😮😁
What a treat
LOL. Please, more ASMR warm-ups! Thanks for showing me this one, I'm still on the fence.
I’m so sad you’ve never played ocarina of time lol I honestly think it’s way better than breathe of the wild. I just started following you because I watched your marble madness speedrun though and love your channel. Binging your videos lol
When u gonna be doing this again Arcus?
The button check was a bit hard to watch 🤣
I've watched both Ocarina Of Time and Wind Waker.
Would you be able to change the difficulty and-or the control scheme in the options menu, possibly through the select button? How't that for old-school. Still enjoying this playthrough.
Wait wait wait. Arcus…NOT on an NES?? Is this bizarro world??
Howdy 🤠🤘💯and I'm hoping your enjoying the game. I have a lot of fun with all the Zelda titles as a whole. Have ya tried any Wind Waker? Man that game is just timeless.

Dude, you add more than 2 buttons and my man gets lost. 😂
Great stuff 👏
1:31:03 How I feel every time something is badly damaged.
Love this.
I also stand in solidarity with ohe boy PointCros
Welcome to the Arcus institute of patience test.
hahaha I was shouting at the screen saying Arcus use the woodcutter axe on those barrels and boxes
What do you get for interacting with those cows or Big Moos, whatever they are? I thought they might be Link's companion but now it looks like you just encounter them throughout the world. Also, that low-pitched Beep or Neep sounds like a giant frog. Are those things allies or enemies?
Oh great, I somehow ended up in a Twilight Zone episode.
ARCUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Wtf, man Enjoy. A very welcome surprise tjanks
Oi, dont you think a bit overkill with the commercial breaks....
Try the Power-A brand Switch Pro controller it is swift lol no rumble if u want that tho you're prolly gd still❤😂🎉
BUT A LINK TO THE PAST IS MY ❤️
Yes!! I have this game on my Nintendo Switch Online. It's definitely a legendary game!! 🗡🛡👕
@@stacychamness9077 💯🤘💯🤘 good taste🙏
yea!
Who else was watching and shouting "don't go there, get that, search the guardians, where are you going, what are you doing, put it away, aim higher, pick up the arrows!"?
I always forget that BotW is on the Switch lol
try pizza tower
What do you use to record and stream your Switch?
Uh mazing
Que raro, um jogo mais atual. Hahahah
I quite expensive therapy and watch Arcus instead, with better result.
Thanks
is that the official nintendo pro controller? thanks
Would you be willing to put a chip in your head if it gave you perfect VR simulated games that were just like being in another world?
Sounds like Sword Art Online, count me in!
Clunck
Clunk.
Man.. i just got tired of this game.. but i never get tired of Arcus.
this is a world record for the longest length to get to the first objective! Dude has no idea how to read a compass?
Go blasphemous!
Watch out brother nintendo might come after you for this. I know you just played a normal game in a normal way but this is nintendo.
That made me 😂 when you 😂 about the iphone. One main reason this game is dumb af.
The sound effects are getting really annoying
its a shame that all you do in this game is pick up sticks and rocks for hours on end
That's an.... interesting... take. I guess people love picking sticks and stones for hours and hours then.
Love this game. Greetimgs from Albania
