if you die in the ganondorf fight, the game actually autosaves right after army. its just a weird autosave that doesnt show up in the load menu and is deleted if you exit the game. so you didnt actually have to refight army, muktorok, and queen gibdo
Hey! Loved this series. Here's a thought that I think might make this a lot more interesting/difficult: No item duplication, BUT, you are allowed to use arrows as long as you fuse something to them. Drastically changes up the gameplay!
I used to think I'd totally be able to pull this off until you reached Mucktorok and realised that nope, I might be a patient and tedious player but that level of frustration is too much for me ahsjdsjd kudos for that, real cool challenge 🙌 (aaand since zelda poured her power into restoring the master sword, technically it's different from botw so u're cleared in my book ✌)
I said this during dark souls, and I’ll say it again, I love your content and I’ll be here for the ride. I can’t promise literally every challenge video you make I’ll be interested in, but I’ll at least check em out. As for the dragon cutscene… yeah no. I personally wouldn’t count quick time events as breaking through rules, regardless of challenge run. Especially considering you didn’t once have to use a breath of the wild item during regular gameplay. So I say; It’s still a challenge success!
Technically TotK’s Master Sword is different from BotW’s as fusing something to it adds green Zoni text to the sword, it has a new description, and under the right light you can see where the new blade starts and the old one ends
I have suffered from insomnia for many years. I feared for a long time I would never get any sleep. I was like a zombie. Then I discovered "Beating Tears of the Kingdom without using Breath of the Wild items". The dulcet Scottish tones, the subtle yet tasteful humour, the impeccable explanations... I was rendered unconscious by the sheer perfection of the video. I awoke 23hrs later, having missed work, my grandmothers funeral and my anniversary dinner. Now my wife, my family and my boss want nothing to do with me. Thank you kiwi for ruining my life.
In fact, I really am here for how you play not the game you play. I’ve played Pokémon once and not even touched the others and I’m still here watching through everything. Thanks for uploading it was great to watch! 🎉
It's dropped! What a great way to finish out a completely unproductive workday. You just love to see the conclusion. In all seriousness, a fantastic run where you had to use every last tool at your disposal. Looking forward to whatever you've got planned next!
Thanks for your support as always :) got a whole bunch of game ideas in mind that I'm planning on eventually executing and editing so hope you look forward to those!
great series, very underrated. it is very hard to find a funny, and talented content creator that is not vulgar, explicit, or swearing. i would love to see a twilight princess series from you, and i look forward to seeing more of your content and challenges.
what is funny was i always wanted to find a youtuber to complete the pokemon dex in order and i was so glad i found one. I have been enjoying every video cant wait to watch more :D gl
I am very glad that I struck a very specific niche that no one had done yet and happy that lots of people are enjoying the Pokédex challenge, next vid will likely be Gen 7 so hope you look forward to that :) but of course I do want to future-proof the channel by making other videos in case I can't think of another cool Pokémon challenge to do once that one is done
well i am enjoying every one of the videos u make :D even if i never really played the games before i am excited to keep watching every one u put out keep up the good work :D
Downloaded all 3 parts to watch on a flight and they were a great way to pass the time. I’ve never really been that interested in dark souls or zelda but I enjoy your commentary and video style so I’ll happily watch anything you put out 😂
Playing this game without bow and arros was incredible hard and it was clear when you started fighting bosses like mucktorok. Really impressive, I was skeptical if you could finish the game at all. Item duplication and ancient blades were crucial
Honnestly there's no way of actually checking if that sword IS the mastersword. Since you can't open your inventory and look at what it's called or the stats. Maybe it's a clone of the mastersword with specific properties for the cutsciene.
Obviously, other people have mentioned that you can use the hydrants during Mucktorok, and you used your fire truck to great effect after a while, but there's actually a lot of other really good options with Zonai builds you can use to beat up bosses. My favourite Mucktorok strategy is attaching a hydrant to the roomba - apparently it's called a homing cart - and literally just letting it loose. It's so fun. You just watch your little roomba go clean up the octopus. The roomba even has a stabby little spike on the front so it can hurt the octopus if it tries hard enough. Similarly, I think you would have had a surprising amount of success floating around the double cannon if you just attached it to a construct head. I'm not entirely sure how consistent it would have been, but it definitely would've been funny. A lot of the bosses in the game can be managed by pointing a roomba with a construct head and cannon at it. It usually isn't very good under normal circumstances, but that's because you usually have a sword and a bow.
Ah I never actually thought of that, and I went out of my way to get the construct head in part 2 - I am certainly learning a lot of other cool interesting ways to do this challenge though
oh my god, the poke-zelda-souls guy uploaded again! lets feed that algo! might i suggest doing dark souls 2 and 3 with the "from memory all achievements" run? :)
This was a great series. I obviously found you originally via the algo promoting the pokedex order series (which i love as well btw) but this was a really cool and creative challenge and looking forward to seeing what else you come up with.
I’m going to suggest looking at Wolf Link’s *Tears of the Kingdom Minimalist 100% Run* for ways to potentially get past some of the restrictions that you ran up against during this challenge
"there is no way anyone is going to read all this but i had to fill the gap with something", well, i read all that before reading that message because i didn't know about world level and was curious (nor did i ever play totk actually)
Unfortunately due to work and life getting in the way I can't produce these videos en masse (and annoyingly it also means RUclips won't pay me enough to leave my job so I'll probably never get out of this loop unless a miracle happens) Oh and also look at your subscription box in approximately 5 hours
The final strike uses the Zelda improved master sword, but it's a different weapon because it has different mechanics and a different model. Sooooooo... Maybe still ok?
@@KillerKiwi1642 That's not correct. If you die and click continue you will respawn right before fighting ganondorf. But if you click return to title which I assume you did because you said you took a break it will respawn you before the whole gauntlet,
So the first time I fought Mucktorock casually I built a tank with a bunch of hydrants on the front. I can't think of any reason you couldn't have done it that way.
yknow, why didnt you ever use fuse? the horns are different from the ones in botw, plus even it you did count the boko and lizal horns as the same from botw, theres still horriblin and boss bokoblins
Yeah I did start to do that all the way at the end when I realised that Ancient Blades are actually not that great since you only get one hit out of them
Your the pokedex order guy because you are the first I've seen(and the best if there are others). But i really enjoy all your other videos just as much. Keep up the amazing work.
Thank you :) I do plan on continuing the Pokédex series as well of course (that may or may not be the next video, who could say....) but yeah got plenty of other good stuff in store so hope you look forward to that too!
honestly i think this still counts since the final strike is forced by the game. very impressive!!
Thank you :) I am glad you agree haha

I will certainly keep that in mind because I want to do other Zelda challenges in the future :)
I would also add, you can use korok seeds (because there is no way your beating the game without more inventory space if you can't dupe
Fun fact if you just had continued after the first ganondorf loss you could’ve continued directly before the Ganon fight

At this point you should be known as something like the Unnecessarily Complex Challenges Guy instead of just Pokédex Guy
Ending is amazing

Feeding the algorithm for the Pokedex guy because he is funny.
Move over Tolkien, a new legendary trilogy has arrived.
I can't believe you thought of the damage glitch during Muktorok but not...using hydrants. (I say this lovingly, I really enjoyed the challenge run)
This is what fighting mucktorok with no ranged weapons does to the human mind
@@KillerKiwi1642 tbh I already struggled with this guy in my normal run. I hate this boss
oh my god, the poke-zelda-souls guy uploaded again!
lets feed that algo!
might i suggest doing dark souls 2 and 3 with the "from memory all achievements" run? :)
I absolutely will be doing the same video format for DS2 and DS3 in the future! No idea when, but it'll happen.

Yup that sounds like a good excuse to me
That was so awesome. 😮 well done you crazy fool
insert sensible comment here

I think the game autosaves between the bosses and Ganon...
Yup I found that out earlier, absolutely dreadful revelation
I do, indeed, want that.
iirc the game sets a checkpoint before the final battle. pretty sure you could have restarted there after your death
Unfortunately not, when Ganondorf hit me and I died I went all the way back to the beginning, sadly :(
@@KillerKiwi1642 That's not correct. If you die and click continue you will respawn right before fighting ganondorf. But if you click return to title which I assume you did because you said you took a break it will respawn you before the whole gauntlet,
@@June26A7 oh dear... yeah I looked back at the footage and had indeed quit :(
BotW without TotK items
Genuinely have mapped out a spreadsheet for that, not sure if I'll do it any time soon but I will give it a go in the future
Or... do TOTK using ONLY BOTW items.
No way its the Pokedex guy :o
no way, this cannot be real

Let's go!!

I luv ur vids pokedex guy :D
you should play dont starve i think youll like it
You caught Zelda
Zelda exists in the first game.
Therefore challenge failed
