I'm kinda shocked that many people thought the realistic explosion was a issue, because that only added to how funny and out of place it was for link to explode that boar.
lol.. it's funny how even the process of making this, in some ways resembles actual nature documentaries as they would use some of the same techniques to film. Like seemingly sequential shots, except in reality they're different animals/locations and all sorts of manipulation to get animals in the proper spot or setting.
I showed the documentary to my mother, who doesn't even play botw, and even she loved it. In my humble opinion it's one of the best things on the internet.
I can only agree. Nobody else has ever made a documentary on fictional animals or monsters in BotW. I couldn’t come up with an idea like this in a hundred years! I saw this documentary and I was like „wow, this could be a part of the usual TV program!" Awesome job, MonsterMaze, I‘d love to see something like this again.
Okay after seeing how much of a pain in the ass this was to make, I'm not going to be impatient waiting for a sequel. That being said.... Life as a Lizalfos when?? 😂
I never even considered how much thought would have gone into choosing the right camp, it was super interesting to hear about! The fact that you also needed to trigger an entire blood moon just for the steak to appear is hilarious haha Also, flawless attenborough impression ^^
Hey MM, I know you're not made of money or anything, but... the voice talent you found is excellent, and making a living on Fiver is very difficult, so... If you do this again, what if you offered him a bonus afterward, provided the video does really well? This video wouldn't have been the same without his Attenborough-like presence. :) David Attenborough's nature documentaries are legendary in quality, and anyone who can capture his essence with their voice deserves kudos. 👍🏻
The Life as a Bokoblin video was honestly a piece of art. It is like no other Zelda video on RUclips and was a treat to watch (I love nature documentaries). Thank you for sharing all the tricks you did, I was really impressed and loved the idea that you can feed the bokoblins! Please do more of these, it is such a creative idea 💕
i once stumbled upon two bokoblins looking like they were having an in depth conversation. one was using hand movements as if describing a crazy story lol. it was so cute i decided to leave them alone
Two things: -One of the best video on RUclips! -I, for one, adored the explosion and it was the funniest part of the video just the contrast of a calm video and bomb a random explosion 💥
An idea regarding the Bokoblin camp at the south of the Great Plateau: The Bokoblin that was on the little archers tower was killed by a human, which encourages the idea of "humans are evil in the eyes of Bokoblins". Another idea is that Link can try gaining their trust by working all night as the guard and the archer.
I usually passed documentaries as "boring" but I LOVED this so much!! The editing in "Life as a Bokoblin" was unbelievably amazing and I loved the voice over, and most of all the whole effort put into it! I am absolutely crazy about The Legend of Zelda so this was the perfect thing for me. Great job! You're the best!!
"Nothing more/nothing special there" he says about stuff that still feels like alot of work.... And, the voiceactor was really good! You really should use him again if/when you make more videos like this :D
This was legitimately one of the most well researched, carefully planned, beautifully shot, and amusing things I’ve ever seen on RUclips. I made my friends watch it when we had a Zoom get together a few weeks ago, right after it launched, and now “And Larry” is our random greeting.
The biggest critisism i can give life as a bokobolin is that the bokos didn’t get a shot of actually hunting and attacking boars. Yep, a really small nitpick is my biggest critisism. Good job.
I thought the stargfox adventures music was so perfect for it too when I heard it. Aesome touch. Memory lane for me too playing it as a teen! 100 bucks though! Crazy man.
@@MonsterMaze absolutely man rare were amazing. Jet force gemininfor the n64 was always my favourite of theirs followed by goldeneye and star fox adventures!
@@MonsterMaze Yeah Rare ware I think got bought out recently so that might have been why. Also NEVER USE SITES SUCH AS LIMEWIRE as that is Illegal and will land u in teh slammer. Not kidding either. A friend of mine landed in jail (Juvenile hall) for six months as a teen because he downloaded illegal music and its piracy.
As an artist I so appreciate all the work you put into this. I am a photographer and some of my still lives take over a week to photograph. The concept can take months and gathering all of the materials if it is seasonal means waiting till that time of year and hoping all the crops you want grew well that year and are ripe at the SAME TIME.
This project reminded me of the WoW or Halo machinimas from years past by how creative and dedicated you guys were to pulling off the ideas you wanted to.
What if Monster Maze made a video about how the lnyel in the Coliseum Ruins was like a dictator ruling over all the enemies in the coliseum, but then 2 bokoblins had a child and he got all the other enemies to rise up against the lynel that's at the bottom? Like a revolution?
This is an insane amount of work, your skills at making videos never ceases to amaze (A Monster Maze) me, I would've never realized how much you have to do for 1 video, I can't wait for the next Nature Documentary, I'm not sure what the narrative could be with Lizalfos, Lynels,etc. But whatever it is I'm excited.
Honestly man, this just blew me away! I knew you worked super hard on your content, but Christ on a bike, this project was huge!! Can you get on the merch band wagon to make extra dollar? I need a Larry T-shirt in my life!! Other than Patreon membership, is there another way to donate project money your way?
Hey Sarah! I mean... yeah why not. I'd love to do some merch stuff! A Larrry shirt is a great idea! I am already so happy that so many of you are donating through Patreon and RUclips. Also the great community on Discord who basically run a whole server on their own and have made it a great place. In terms of extra support, I'm already so happy that you are all always here to watch my stuff. When Merch comes, I will be sure to let you all know! I have some fun ideas (aside from the Larry shirt)
@@MonsterMaze .....starts chanting: Merch, merch, merch, merch, merch!! We wanna buy your stuff!! (Also, in reference to your previous upload, I have equally mullet-y childhood photos!!) Cudos to us 80's kids 🤜🤛🙌
I honestly loved that the explosion looked realistic and not part of the game. I thought it was a hilarious moment, which I wasn't expecting in the highly educational nature documentary. Keep up the good work
I loved Life as a Bokoblin, so watching this and seeing how it was made was a lot of fun! I never realized just how much work and dedication was needed for it. What a great video. Also, for the whole skittish animals and whatnot, what if you used a long range bow like the Golden Bow? Maybe mod out the crosshairs and arrow count?
Do a “Mystery” video! Some Mystery in Hyrule you try to uncover. Can be a character or an item. That would be fun. Cheers! This was an absolutely amazing video.
I can't wait to send the original video as well as this one to my friend that got me interested in LoZ! The amount of work, dedication and care put into the creation of it is INSANE!!! 8D I also agree with what Shinji said, that explosion cracked me up so much,I still chuckle over how unexpected it was. It is a nature documentary, but if it's possible Link will not waste precious arrows, the production costs pile up fast when in Hyrule XD
I think a good idea would be to add on to the Life as a Bokoblin, and have the story revolve around revealing Link’s true identity and have Larry defend him. I would love to see this!
I know this is 2 years old, but I just saw Life of a Bokoblin for the first time. And honestly as fun as it was, it was really the voice over & script that was the most entertaining part to me.
Hey man, thanks for considering making one of the nature documentary videos for the other monsters. From what you've done I can expect a lot from another. Thanks!
One of the all time greatest videos and follow up behind the scenes videos I’ve ever seen, I’m an old man, played these games forever and now I play them with my kids. They loved this, you did a really good job, damn near makes me wanna cry, thank you from us all
I found this way late and watched the documentary I was very impressed with it I liked seeing the workings behind making it it deserves all the respect I can give it
A very big well done on pulling off that David feel to the script! could never have done it myself. While watching the 'Life as a Bokoblin' video I was instantly stunned by how similar he speaks by saying 'we' instead of 'I' and his narrative speaking about humans as 'we' and animals as 'they'. VERY VERY well done. Oh and also, Larry.
As someone whose watched so many BBC nature documentaries it’s affected my online name I loved the video. The Attenborough impression and the very naturalistic ethereal music makes it too real. Pure gold.
Great work here. Loved everything about this, from the BBC spoof concept to showcasing how alive and worthwhile this type of thing actually feels for the game. If you ever had another go at this, something on Lynels would be so cool! Happy for what you gave us here regardless though. Probably my favorite BOTW thing I've ever watched
This video confirms what I thought about the length and breadth of the creative process involvement, for just a simple gag- became just an absolute monster of a project… and I really appreciate the effort. It was a lot of work, but I think it was worth it for such a great final product.
I think Life as a Bokoblin is the only LoZ video I've ever liked, if that says anything about how much I enjoyed your video. I'm glad you learned what worked, what didn't work, and I eagerly anticipate your next Life as a video!
You could wear stealthy armor or eat stealthy food before taking shots of wildlife, then they won't spook as easily. But overall, I'm blown away by how much effort you put into this! The final product was amazing, I immediately sent it to all my friends, before I even finished it. I thought the boar being blown up was so funny I had to pause it just to relish in the humor. PLEASE MAKE MORE! I would love more nature documentary videos to watch! If you don't want to repeat the same concept, some lore/myth/theory stories could be interesting, or some reality TV/dating show spinoffs would be funny.
Eyyy, you said you would want to do smth like that again! I have an idea: In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, theres a lot of npcs who want to explore the depths more, you could do a video about that! Like "Since the latest events brought up new areas that no Hylian has ever set foot on, we wanted to be the first ones to do so, and show you footage of the depths!" or anything like that)))))
The Bokoblin video was amazing! Thank you for doing the making of as well! I really enjoyed it. I have never seen your videos until I saw the "Nature Documentary" video in my son's watch history and knew I had to watch it. It was everything I was expecting it to be! For this being yiour first time writing a story script, I am pretty dang impressed! The voice actor was spot on and I am definitely looking forward to more of these!
This was a really cool idea. I loved going through the game and watching how each tribe interacted with each other and had a culture of their own. It made the world feel very alive. Fantastic work, man.
Can’t watch this video rn, but when I have an extra half an hour I’ll definitely watch it! The actual video is awesome lol! I didn’t realise the amount of effort that went into it, so well done. This is possibly one of my favourite videos now, it’s so good! :)
Really cool to see how you manage to do the video! I discovered your channel with "Life as a Bokoblin" and your videos are really good to listen to while I work. Thank you!
I am blown away by how much effort you have put into making, The life of a Bokoblin. How ever I should not be surprised as I am into watching the how it was made content on all of my movies. One can appreciate the amount of effort that goes into one of these creations. Your passion has payed off and I hope to see another amazing documentary from you featuring the world of Hyrule! Cheers!
I thought your video (and this follow up) were absolutely amazing. I actually felt immersed in it, like I was watching an actual nature documentary. Thank you for these and all your content!
having never played Breath of the Wild I had fully accepted that a lot/all of this was jsut stuff you could do in game if you had the bokoblin mask (if only) still an amazingly made video though with the use of mods Also don't worry I never even noticed the flame sword either honestly- until you pointed it out in this vid
Due to this video, I realized how many Bokoblin camps I didn't even know where right at the beginning of the game. I guess I always wandered away to quickly. Even the top of the mountain the shrine of resurrection is in, after playing 300+ hours, I realize I never been to the top where there are Bokolins!
Loved this bts look at what is quickly becoming my favorite youtube video! I didn't even register that the arrows had been modded out until you mentioned it, that's how convincing of a story you built!
Man, I enjoyed this as much as the original video! All your hard work paid off, and raised the bar in a lot of ways for Zelda content on RUclips. Take your time with the next, I'll be there to watch it!
I'm kinda shocked that many people thought the realistic explosion was a issue, because that only added to how funny and out of place it was for link to explode that boar.
Agree with this. It enhanced the comic effect.
Same. I laughed SO HARD at that. I wasn’t ready for it.
It wouldn't have worked if it was just a rune bomb
Agreed!!! I thought the explosion was done that way for comedic effect. It made me laugh!
Yes
"It goes without saying these are not the same bokoblins"
...I feel so betrayed

Well, even I missed it, even though I had to watch it dozens of times while editing haha. I guess because it's such a small detail
Imagine Breath of the Wild 2 having a Bokoblin city.

we still need more of this amazing content such as life of a moblin or whatever other mob you can do. (idk)
The Life As A Bokoblin video was masterfully executed and so well thought through.
Looking forward to seeing more videos like it in the future!

I have never seen your videos until I saw the "Nature Documentary" video in my son's watch history and knew I had to watch it. It was everything I was expecting it to be! For this being yiour first time writing a story script, I am pretty dang impressed! The voice actor was spot on and I am definitely looking forward to more of these!
This was a really cool idea. I loved going through the game and watching how each tribe interacted with each other and had a culture of their own. It made the world feel very alive. Fantastic work, man.
Thank you so much for putting in the time, work, and creativity to make this!
Can’t watch this video rn, but when I have an extra half an hour I’ll definitely watch it! The actual video is awesome lol! I didn’t realise the amount of effort that went into it, so well done. This is possibly one of my favourite videos now, it’s so good! :)
Really cool to see how you manage to do the video! I discovered your channel with "Life as a Bokoblin" and your videos are really good to listen to while I work. Thank you!
Greath job! I think you have made a future classic that we will revisit in years, with nostalgia and love! Thank you!
Can we please get a tears of the kingdom one, this video was amazing
Honestly this video was so cool being mixed with BBC earth and an awesome and incredibly detailed game! by far the best botw video I’ve seen lol
I got a good chuckle out of the realistic explosion and the Larry bit
Man, I'm so impressed by the amount of work you had and the incredibly organized workflow you developed for this. Great job!
I absolutely loved both videos. They made my day. Thank you for your commitment to making it
that video was the best zelda video i have ever seen. a whole series would be so amazing and would blast up your views for sure!
I am blown away by how much effort you have put into making, The life of a Bokoblin. How ever I should not be surprised as I am into watching the how it was made content on all of my movies. One can appreciate the amount of effort that goes into one of these creations. Your passion has payed off and I hope to see another amazing documentary from you featuring the world of Hyrule! Cheers!
I thought your video (and this follow up) were absolutely amazing. I actually felt immersed in it, like I was watching an actual nature documentary. Thank you for these and all your content!
The amount of time, effort, dedication and pure TALENT that you put into that documentary shines through. Brilliant work!
Woah
So much effort
Good work
Well, i'll wait for the Moblins
I'll wait
having never played Breath of the Wild I had fully accepted that a lot/all of this was jsut stuff you could do in game if you had the bokoblin mask (if only) still an amazingly made video though with the use of mods
Also don't worry I never even noticed the flame sword either honestly- until you pointed it out in this vid
Life as a bokoblin is one of my favorite videos on RUclips! Very cool to hear how you made it
Awesome work man. The life as a bokoblin video is probably one of my favorite Zelda related videos ever. Keep up the good work!
Due to this video, I realized how many Bokoblin camps I didn't even know where right at the beginning of the game. I guess I always wandered away to quickly. Even the top of the mountain the shrine of resurrection is in, after playing 300+ hours, I realize I never been to the top where there are Bokolins!
Loved this bts look at what is quickly becoming my favorite youtube video! I didn't even register that the arrows had been modded out until you mentioned it, that's how convincing of a story you built!
Aah thank you! I was so happy to get those arrows out. It would've made the video a lot less convincing otherwise ^^
Man, I enjoyed this as much as the original video! All your hard work paid off, and raised the bar in a lot of ways for Zelda content on RUclips. Take your time with the next, I'll be there to watch it!
Loved this whole concept and the story behind the group and making of. I always liked the name Red myself.
