    hi i'm lunoplasty. i wasn't expecting to be in this video as the category & game have evolved so much since i last ran, not to mention my potato-quality stream setup. nice work on the video!
    at the time, i thought Master Sword would be a really fun race category with many different options for routing. for my own route (google doc still saved to this day), i wanted to let runners tackle shrines and a dungeon, without needing to commit to the extensive "all shrines" or "all dungeons" categories, as many shrines feature wild solutions that were hard or impossible to show off in other categories at the time.
    this brought back some memories! maybe i'll dust off my wii u gamepad...

    I remember the thing that got me interested in speedrunning was the excitement about barrier skip finally being discovered in Wind Waker HD (Wind Waker being a special game from my childhood, so it caught my attention.)
    For me personally, the hunt for the Great Plateau skip feels like the modern version of that old Holy Grail. I'm sure you'll find it someday, and it's going to be amazing when it happens!

    • @kevinr.9733
      @kevinr.9733 3 года назад +69

      It is actually possible to start a new game with the paraglider (and bow of light, and basically anything else you want), but doing so requires you to beat the game more or less normally without dying, saving, reloading, or exiting the game. It also requires another game before that to glitch the game into a state where it won't autosave. So... in order to skip the Great Plateau, you have to beat the Great Plateau. Twice.

      @SeeTv. 3 года назад +23

      I might be a pessimist when it comes to that but Plateau Skip seems VERY unlikely. Before you get the Paraglider, te Plateau is inside a Box and whenever Link leaves this Box (by traveling at high speed or wrong warping there with Moon Jump Wrong Warp), he voids out and spawns at the cliff where the opening cutscene plays.
      With New Game + you can transfer the Paraglider to a new game and then the Box disappears but that requires beating the game before a new Playthrough.
      Since the final battle takes place on Hyrule Field, a Wrong Warp doesn't make sense because of the Box. Someone would have to find a way to have the Paraglider early in the inventory which deactivates the Box.

This may, of course, be totally impossible without something even crazier, like ACE.

    How many glitches and exploits will we discover until ACE gets discovered, if it even could have ACE? This game is so broken, we can do things that were originally thought to be emulator only like keeping the Bow of Light with no Final Boss issues, Infinite Jump, flying anywhere at high speed and no stamina consumption, etc., yet we can't warp to the credits.

    • @jackaw1197
      @jackaw1197 3 года назад +43

      ACE in its most pure form is impossible on modern hardware due to data execution prevention. But it is still a slight possibility that one could do something with return-oriented programming; albeit with unimaginable difficulty and luck. Very smart people have been aware of ROP for years, so most software has additional defensive features.
      If someone could do that, they would just need to somehow enable a debug flag or add the paraglider to the player inventory. That would prevent the great plateau barrier check, and allow a great plateau skip; the Holy grail of botw speedrunning.

    • @kanemello
      @kanemello 3 года назад +41

      @@Justsomedudeokay ace stands for "Arbitrary Code Execution". I'm not literate in the nitty gritty details of it, but basically it has to do with manipulating the game in a way that sets a bunch of specific flags or values, then loading them (usually through a warp or screen transition) to warp directly to the end of a game or even the credits. An example would be mario 3, where if you kick a shell around and jump around in a very specific way in an early level; a glitched warp pipe appears and going in it instantly loads the ending credits of the game.

    I subscribed before you said you were showing more glitches, amazing channel, and the fact that you add so many details I just LOVE this. When I was younger (well two years ago) when I played BOTW I wanted the sword quicker and I did the horse glitch as shown in the video and before to mentioned it I was all like " when is he going to mention that one thing I did?" and then I saw it and the nostalgia ran back to me. Thank you for making this video, it is great in everyway and you are fine about the low quality. Have a good day sir😊

  • @ZipplyZane
    @ZipplyZane 3 года назад +42

    This threw me off for a second. There's a RUclipsr doing a minimalist 100% run of BotW. This is where you do only the minimum required actions (with the minimum inventory) to get 100% completion on the map.
    I saw the channel name, and actually thought he'd released a video early. (They normally release on Sundays).
    It's not exactly a speedrun, as avoiding events and dragging items rather than putting them in your inventory takes time. The goal is just to prove what is absolutely necessary to get 100%. Too many people think you need to, say, actually defeat all the dungeons and shrines or complete all the quests, but you don't It's primarily Korok seeds and finding all map locations (including shrines).
    And, yes, I decided to comment because I thought more people might try the run. I won't mention the RUclipsr's name so I'm not spamming. It's just something I thought people might be interested in.
    I'd also just love it if someone did a glitched run of minimalist 100%. For his purposes, the other guy is going glitchless, to prove you don't need glitches to do it. But, with glitches, maybe it could be a speedrun category instead of a multi-month-a-thon.

      What the RUclipsr you mention does is absolutely a speedrun in a category usually known as Low%. Lowest Percent has done a Video about this run in Twilight Princess called "The Speedrun Where Link Stares at Rupees for 17 hours" if you're interrested in watching it.

      @@TekZulu No, it isn't. It's not Low% it's minimalist 100%. I even explained what the category meant.
      Low% doesn't get 100% completion. You don't have to get every Korok Seed and map location. Since items don't affect percentage, you are free to pick up as many as you want.
      Minimalist 100% avoids most shrines, avoids picking up items as much as possible, requiring you to use magnesis and hitting items to move them around. You can't complete any quest that isn't required to complete the game. You do the minimum required to get 100% completion.
