Twilight Princess Speedruns are INSANE in 2022!

do you know what is one of the hardest things to get into when watching speedruns out there understanding what's going on especially when it comes to the zelda franchise it has so many glitches that most of the time you don't know what's going on and it's just too overwhelming and you don't want to watch it well what i decided to do today is take one of the fan favorite zelda games in the franchise which is twilight princess which usually is a three to four hour long speed run and condense it down into a simple one hour video with full commentary and visuals so you'll be able to understand every single glitch that goes into the twilight princess speedrun and please do not forget to subscribe to the youtube channel as well because editing one hour long videos takes a very long time so i would really appreciate it but either way let's get right into it alright so let's start the speed run in three two one go all right so immediately uh once we start the speed run we are immediately going to be skipping all the intro cutscenes because in this game you can skip about 99 of all cutscenes by just simply matching the start button now you're going to notice that my route is going to be very different compared to how you would usually imagine a early game speed run to go what we are going to do is we are going to decide to pick up this rock and run over to this gate right here now normally you cannot leave this area early without doing a bunch of the side quests like getting a fish bait and then you know you have to rescue the cat and you have to get the slingshot among many other things but we're going to skip all of that by placing a rock next to this gate right here we're going to side hop in between the gate itself and the rock which is going to clip us into the gate itself once we have done that we are then going to go ahead and pretty much bonk the fence which is going to let us clip outside on the other side and then i did this weird setup that you just watched and you can see now i have a title screen on my screen i respawn on the bridge what is happening so you might be very confused about what just happened with this entire sequence of events so let me explain so you see right here this title screen right you can see link with a tunic and epona well this is an actual save file that the game has which is pretty much a save file that has been played up to the second dungeon when you first unlock a pona and it's an automatic input so just a cutscene that's being played in game of link you know running across you know hyrule feel the music playing and the title screen being up right what i try and do right there on that bridge is that before my glitch doing this back in time which fundamentally works by soft resetting your console on the same frame that you void out if you do this one frame early or one frame late it will not work however if both of these actions are performed at the same time something very very useful happens which is that the game does not clear this little flag indicating that hey link just voided out so once we soft reset and it puts us back to the title screen the game is simply going to respawn link in the title screen and since he's coming from a respawn and not the cutscene we actually have control over link after that we simply just jump down from the tower void out and then we can now have full access to playing that save file now there's nothing really useful for us to do on that safely unfortunately we're kind of locked out of continuing there but what we can do is we can just save and quit our game which will respawn us back in the forest where we should be but we obtain all of the equipment that the title screen link actually had which includes the sword the shield the tunic and also epona unlocked so that allows us to skip the majority of early games straight away and immediately escape uh the forest because i'm sure a lot of you guys know trial princess is incredibly boring in order the game even if you love the game i love twilight princess early game is very tedious very boring and has plenty of cutscenes that you wish you could skip past thankfully this glitch allows us to pretty much get past all of that it will also allows us to um skip the very first tier collecting as well which we're going to be seeing a little bit later on but for now we're simply going to head over here pick up a small key and uh continue our way over to try and rescue this girl so that we can actually uh progress to the next sequence of the game which is to uh get a pona and then to get the iron boots pretty good so far pretty good speed running movement overall i would say 19 out of 20 where's the last goat oh man okay we almost have perfect goats here you can see a perfect example of a goat being a little bit rogue and deciding to face the wrong direction there we go unfortunately not perfect rng right there um but you can see still a quick two cycle if he decides uh to not go sideways but instead just staying straight now we got the iron boots and we are on our way to head over to leaving this house now this is when some glitches are going to start to come up and it's going to sound quite strange um it's going to all make sense later on at least i hope so but for now just also know that i'm going to be setting up a glitch for later it's going to be using save files so i'm going to save uh my game right here outside of bose house and i'm going to keep this a file for the rest of the run i'm not going to touch the save file i'm just going to make sure that i have a save file right outside of bo's house this speeder actually uses all three save files so you're going to see it later on now you're going gonna notice something even though i'm less than 10 minutes into the speed run uh we are already going to believe in the first area because that is all we have to do and everything we need to collect in the first area we are immediately right now and going here going to activate the event that is going to put us all the way over to tyrol castle so that's it that's all the early game we have to go through which is uh very nice considering how long usually early game would take now there's not really too much to explain in terms of hyrule castle hyrule castle is pretty straightforward you kind of just have to go through it all right now remember earlier how i mentioned that i made sure to save on file number one right outside of bose house well for setting up a glitch later i'm also going to save right now but i'm going to save on my second save file and it's going to be on the outside right here in hyrule castle so remember that so there's currently two save files that we have um in the game there's going to be a third one later on it's going to be a very confusing glitch at first but it's going to be incredibly useful i clicked this one to say thank you so much mansky for sponsoring today's video now as

major glitch in the run and it is so bad this my friends is a glitch known as sword and shield skin let me explain so normally when you play through twilight princess you will have never really realized this but when you're done with the village in a vanilla playthrough and you want to leave the actual forest right here you will just go into a midnight trigger that pulls you into the twilight round but there is a requirement before you can enter the twilight round which you might remember which is to obtain a sword and a shield now you might think wait hold on you have a sword in the shield that is true but the trigger for checking if you have a sword and shield does not just check for if you have a sword and shield or inventory it specifically checks for the wooden sword and the wooden shield which i do not have and would lose a huge amount of time to obtain so i'm going to try to do a glitch right here known as a long jump attack with this wolf so i lured this moblin over here we call him hugo and this is one of the hardest glitches in the run uh this trick alone took me about eight hours to perform a single time when i was first learning the speed run um so hopefully it goes well unfortunately that's not great positioning on hugo so i'm gonna have to try and push him around here almost got it so did you see right there how i did a really long of a jump that's an actual legitimate mechanic that nintendo program but we're going to be using right here so when you do a lot when you do a jump attack in twilight princess i'll show you some footage on the screen right now you can see that if you're a wolf and you target an enemy that is close to you you will do a very short long jump attack but if the enemy is further away from you you will do a longer jump attack which is a very clever mechanic and is very helpful for casuals however we are going to try and abuse this right here because what we try and do is we try and go to as close as possible to this giant trigger on the floor to say hey you can't go further because you need the sword and shield at that point in the middle of the enemy's attack i'm going to back i'm going to do a back flip and then do a jump attack to push him forward and then when he is at his highest point and the furthest the way possible i'm going to do a second jump attack and if timed perfectly i'm gonna have a perfect angle so i gained just the right amount of height and the maximum amount of speed from a jump attack because he's really far away from me at this point and it is going to allow me to jump over the trigger so let's see if i can do that right now right there so you can see right there that i jumped right over the trigger and you're gonna see that instead i activate this next cutscene trigger that's because the trigger that checks hey do you have a sword and shield is only a ground trigger meaning it only gets activated if you stand on the ground while a cutscene trigger which is what the cutscene is of midnight pulling you through into the twilight realm is a cutscene trigger the cutscene trigger extends into the air meaning that if i can get far away in midair and i hit that cutscene trigger it will take priority before i actually hit the ground trigger and by so i can skip obtaining the sword and the shield saving a huge amount of time and completing our like little circle if you may um of actually skipping there the game itself all right now what you're going to see after i take down dark beast is right here this little cut scene telling me hey go and collect all the twilight things the tears yeah no we're not doing that uh unfortunately we do have to collect two out of the three tiers i'm going to explain to you later why but thankfully the very first tier collecting here in the woods can be skipped so it's not too bad i know we just performed the major glitch to be able to escape the forest early however another major glitch is coming up right now which is the biggest reason why people prefer to speedrun the gamecube version over the hd version there are a couple of glitches that differentiate the two versions for example back in time that you saw me perform earlier to get the sword and shield early and the tunic and stuff that is not possible in the h2 version but the biggest glitch that makes the routes very different is early master sword early master sword is exactly what it sounds like it allows you to get the master sword early this is unfortunately patched in multiple ways on the hd version but does work on the game conversion so i'm going to come up on that right now which is going to come up after i do this jumping sequence and i get up to these dark beasts um now like i said this is an incredibly difficult glitch so this may take me a couple of attempts to pull off but pretty much remember earlier how i mentioned how long jump attacks work and depends on how the enemy is located depending on how you jump well i'm gonna use that in a different situation here here i'm going to line myself up with this texture right here get this dark beast hope he does the right attack you have a 50 chance on it and then try and time it correctly pretty much when you do a long jump attack and you do it or when you do a targeted attack you should say by holding in the b button with wolf link you're going to jump towards the damage source of the dark beast which is his hand so if it is an overhead attack by putting his hand upwards if i release my b button with a perfect angle at the perfect time when the hand is at the top positioning i'm going to jump towards his hand and if angled correctly and if timed correctly it will poke me up on this little ledge up here so let's see if i can pull it off there we go all right so when you get a perfect angle you can jump up here and you can walk in this weird out of bounds area then i'm going to walk all the way up here and then once i'm up here i'm going to just simply do a jump and i'm going to jump down here and i'm now on to the lost woods which is where we obtain the master sword and that is how you do early master sword and as you might know the master unlocks a lot of features in this game including uh changing in between wolf and human warping anytime you want among many other things now this is going to be straightforward not any really special glitches or anything like that i'm just going to kind of run through here and just kind of try and collect skull kid and by so in about half an hour we already have the master storage usually would take casuals a couple of hours so um yeah pretty good early game now we're gonna go through one of the rare cutscenes in the game that is non-skippable and then we will get on to some more uh exploitation of the game so now you're going to notice immediately uh the advantages of having to master it early we're straight away going to be using a warp which you normally would not be able to do and we're going to be able to switch back and forth between wolf link and normal link which is going to be using a lot of in a lot of different situations now this is gonna be one of the most confusing glitches i think i'm gonna pull off in the speed run um it's coming up right now it's kind of referred to as boss flags it's quite a complicated glitch so i'm going to go ahead and like kind of overly simplify the glitch itself and i'm also going to do it kind of step by step so you have a little bit more time to comprehend what is going on with the glitch so remember earlier how i said that i set up two save files one outside of both house and then one at the outdoors area of hyrule castle well right here i'm going to be saving a third save file which is going to be on my third save file right here now once i've saved here i'm going to go back to the title screen and this is where the glitch comes into play so first the purpose of the second file which is what i'm going to load first here the only reason for my second file is so that i have an easy place where i can super quickly void out because remember to perform the back in time glitch that it did earlier you have to be able to void out so i'm going to stand here and i'm going to sight hop and avoid out and perform back in time all right so now i just perform back in time and i respawn on the title screen and you can see that if i press a here i'm going to go into file select right well what i'm going to do is i'm going to jump off here and as i'm voiding out i'm going to press a did you hear that ah that was because he voided out in the title screen as i opened up the file select so now link voided out while i open this file select up now i'm going to load the first save file which is going to take the coordinates of where the first save file should it should spawn you but it's going to take the map of the second file i just died in so remember the second file was in hyrule field right but the first one is on both house you can kind of imagine it takes the positioning of the first file but it takes the area of the second file so by loading this now i'm going to spawn into a boss fight now i'm going to start a soft reset and spam start so what i did right there is i started soft reset in the game and as my game was voiding out i spammed start which skips the cutscene and once you've skipped that cutscene you will simply be spawned into a boss fight and this is where the boss flag glitch comes into an effect to very much simplify it imagine that any time you enter a boss fight the game activates a boss flag trigger right indicating hey link is currently in a boss fight and by doing that very very complicated setup that i just performed the game just simply sets that flag but it had no opportunity to remove that flag whatsoever because normally how it would be is you enter a boss fight it activates bam here's a flag yep he's in a boss fight then when you complete the boss fight right it removes it but due to what i just did it had no opportunity to clear out that boss flag trigger that i just activated so right now the game has a constant flag set internal in the game saying yep he has the boss flag trigger and that is going to be very useful in two different opportunities the first one you're going to notice in a couple of minutes when we enter the first dungeon of the game right here so now when i enter the first dungeon of the game right how normally the progression would go in this dungeon is you come here you have the slingshot you go through the dungeon you get a bunch of monkeys and then you you know go ahead and rescue them after rescuing all the monkeys you can build a bridge you can get the gale boomerang and then you can go ahead and progress towards collecting the boss key heading up towards the boss room and you know then defeating the boss now due to the glitches that i performed earlier i don't actually have to complete the boss whatsoever there's nothing that i obtained from beating the boss so we can't completely skip the boss due to back in time and um and early master sword which is a glitch should have affirmed earlier but we do still want to obtain the gale boomerang because the gael boomerang is the most broken item in the entire game and this is where the boss flag first comes into play remember earlier how i mentioned that the game kind of thinks that i'm in a boss fight well in this dungeon if you think about it the only way that i could have a boss flag trigger is if i've already progressed up to the boss fight in the dungeon meaning that when i open up this door right here and the game sees that i have the boss flag it is going to spawn all of the monkeys and allow me to instantly build a bridge without going out of my way to pick up every single individual monkey so the entire thing just gets completely skipped saving a huge amount of time and there you can see your first kind of beautiful uh execution of boss flags all right and we have now just obtained the gale boomerang and um you're gonna be seeing the gale boomerang used throughout literally the entire game from now on uh there is not going to be pretty much any areas in the game whatsoever where we will not be using the gale boomerang so immediately like i said once i get the gail boom rank i'm going to save and quit to get put back to the beginning of the dungeon and i'm immediately going to leave the dungeon and warp out of here because there's nothing else that i need to obtain from this dungeon whatsoever now you cannot normally leave the forest because remember earlier when i tried to enter the twilight realm there was a giant midna trigger that was telling me hey you can't leave you need the sword and shield well there's the pretty much identical thing right here with hey you can't leave the forest you need to you know complete the twilight and beat the dungeon but with the gale boomerang i can perform the long jump attack glitch that you saw me do with the wolf earlier to do it but anywhere so i'm gonna get into a bit more of a lengthy explanation here because you fundamentally need to understand this glitch to understand the remaining rest of the speed run it is the biggest skip in the entire game so how does gale jump work when you have the gale boomerang out and you throw it away or you target something far away uh you will simply do a jump slash and just like wolf link if something is further away from you and you're targeted onto it you will jump much further however you will know that the gale boomerang for example let's say right here right i'm going to target this floor right here uh oops that's the pillar i'm going to target this floor over here this is a floor not an enemy but you can see i still did a huge long jump so what is that about well there is two incredibly broken mechanics in relation to how the game determines link's speed when you target with the gale boomerang which is if you target something that is above you or if you are over a void so i'm going to show some footage on screen right now of me targeting a fence and doing a jump attack and you're going to see that i'm pretty much just going to jump in place i'm not going to go really far at all on the next cut i'm going to target above the fence so that the gale boomerang is above the fence meaning that the ground that is the gale boomerang is over is above where link is standing and you're going to see that i get launched way further you're also going to notice that if i show you throwing the guild ring over this void and i do a jump attack you're also going to see that i jump way further as well compared to what i would normally do and that's fundamentally how this glitch works so by using very clever setups and by making sure that the gill boomerang is up as above link or on out of bound sections and stuff like that i can pretty much do really long jumps anywhere i want in the game from now on uh without having to deal with any enemy rng or anything like that and we're gonna head down here and we're going to take these three enemies down right here there we go after killing those three enemies right there what i'm going to do is i'm going to watch this cutscene and this cutscene is going to force me to warp away which is a little bit unfortunate but it is all okay so after getting forced to warp away right here the speedrun is really going to start to pick up and i'm going to start going pretty much all over the overworld right here once i've been worked back what i'm supposed to do is warp through this forest go to pick up the bridge and warp the bridge over to repair that entire structure now due to sequence breaks i actually can't do that to be able to warp it away if i remember correctly you have to actually collect the tier collecting which you know it takes about eight or ten minutes so we're not going to go ahead and collect any of the tiers whatsoever so we have to figure out a way to get across that entire gap without using the bridge which i think you might start to figure out how we're going to do that later on but for now we're actually going to kind of forget about it and go ahead and try and collect some other items for now so what we're gonna do now is we're going to escape the forest once again and we're now instead going to head over to zora because one thing that we really want to make sure that we obtain as quickly as we possibly can is the claw shot because the claw shot is a very useful item and is necessary to beat the game now normally in the vanilla game i couldn't access that area yet however one of the actual easiest uh sequence breaks in the game is coming up right here so what i'm going to do is i'm going to go over here i'm going to target i'm going to get this angle right here and then i'm going to simply just attach this fence and side hop and while it's jiggling back and forth if you side hop at the correct time you can just get right push through then here i'm going to listen for my disk once i hear that my disk starts spinning to load this next area i'm going to turn into a human and immediately skip this cutscene and then i'm going to jump down here and jump down to this giant kind of pond if you want to call it that a river whatever you want to call this area so this is where another really tricky glitch comes into play known as pillar clip so i need to actually access the zoros area but i don't have any of the items necessary to get into the zora area because i don't know the zoro tunic i can't go underwater i don't have water bombs so we're going to be having to use a lot of glitches to try and pull this off so i'm going to do the cf method i'm going to swim forward and here i am now in position so i hope this works if not there's a backup i can do but pretty much what i'm going to try and do right here is if i have the correct position and lineup which is very difficult to tell because i'm in water what should happen right now when i drop down i hold target and forward and have iron boots on and so i should have a perfect position lined up to the pillar against this left side of this wall right here so let's see if we got it so right here we're going to unequip the iron boots we're going to start swimming up we're going to talk to midna and hopefully this is going to pop us a little bit upwards bam now we're gonna unfortunately we got stuck in place so what the idea with this is is to try and clip out a bounce you can see i almost got clicked out of bounds right there uh like i said it is incredibly precise and you're gonna notice that even once i get the clip out of bounds hopefully i get in the next try you're gonna notice how incredibly precise this is in terms of setup and air okay so we're clipped out of bounds now hope we can make it the loading zone before we drown and as you can see it's very precise you have a very small amount of time to mess around there without the drowning i'm talking about actual frames milliseconds uh a leeway right there but if done perfectly and if executed perfectly you will just barely make it into the loading zone and thanks to the glitches that we performed earlier the game once we save and quit in that tunnel puts us into the dungeon because the game already thinks that we have gone and passed the tunnel to the flags that we said earlier which is also very very useful because if not i would drown in that next tunnel instead and now here comes a good demonstration of some of the really cool movement you can expect in tp speedruns if i'm able to pull it off i hope i can it's really really cool so let's see if we can do this we're gonna target once there we're gonna target right here beautiful and we're gonna jump all the way on top of that fence all the way over here and then grab the switch right here turn the staircase beautiful movement right there uh and uh yeah hopefully that was a little bit of a taste of the movement you can expecting from the gel boomerang so with that we're already over here we move the staircase the way we need to for later in the dungeon and we're now going to unfortunately get one of the creepiest and worst item slash mpcs in the entire game this is where nightmares are fueled the ocos my good old friends hi buddy and beautiful if you time your b slashes perfectly you can just barely squeeze out of one cycle right here and uh immediately get the claw shot and with that that is all we need to do for now in this entire dungeon now there are a couple of more things i will have to do later on but for now that's it we got the claw shot and we got everything we wanted so we're going to start off immediately by saving and quitting to get back to the very start of the dungeon once again and uh we are then going to escape through our best friends in the game the aukos we're gonna switch back to wolf and we're gonna go over here now here is the swag strap i cannot promise that i'm going to pull this off i'm going to be honest but let's see if we can still do it so there's an out of bounds clip that you can use area only saves a few seconds i'm not consistent at it but it does look pretty cool so let's see if we can do this oh actually got it nice okay so by doing a uh kind of a speed right there like a speed boost right as you go in between these two clips it can push you out of bounds without bonking you because if you bonk with this bird you have to reset but if you're able to do it uh you can go out of bounds and it saves about i think eight seconds or something like that and as you can see it's also incredibly bright because you're not supposed to be out of bounds here but if you put on your sunglasses um you know you look like a you know a cool guy you know easy clap uh you can breeze through this out of bounce area go immediately to the loading zone and not have to go through the cave system and save a little bit of time all right so after unlocking the warp and zoro's domain now and getting all the way up to the top of zoro's domain i'm going to warp away and go back to the forest for one last time and we're now finally after getting the claw shot after unlocking zoro's domain and doing everything going to go ahead and go over to alden which is where another really difficult trick comes up which is called a ruby roll all right so now we're back at the top of this area and as you can see the bridge is still missing i cannot get over this is however one of the most difficult glitches comes into play i'm gonna have to put a lot of focus here because i am on like a little time limit here what i'm gonna do is i'm gonna dig up this roof here and i'm immediately gonna run over here turn back into human backflip take out my gale boomerang gail boomerang to pick up the rupee gail booming right there and then lock it right there and let's see if we got it beautiful so you know how in twilight princess the game this game loves to give you pop up saying hey you got a rupee hey you got a rupee well even though it loves to give you that pop up there's one thing in twilight princess that they were not so generous about which is how long a ruby stays spawn on the ground which is only a few seconds so that's why i have to rush that and be so fast so what i have to do right there and what do we actually complete with that glitch right there beautiful we just pulled it off is we do a long jump attack to get on top of that fence but that fence actually slides you off and you slide off whatever area you kind of got onto it from but by digging up a rupee and then very quickly the pick up the rupee and then you move it over on top of that kind of like little fence if you get a boomerang long jump you land on top of it and you pick up the rupee at the same time it will delay the animation of links sliding off the fence by a few frames which just barely gives me enough time to mash in to get in a roll performing this roll is gonna put me just barely over the edge to where instead i slide off on the opposite side of the fans compared to what i where i came from this allows me to then land on that ledge maneuver around the the kind of fenced area throw my gail boomerang into a long jump attack and go all the way over the void and land on the other side completely skipping the fence and the fence and the gate and the bridge all together you will also have noticed if you're paying a lot of attention and you're a little bit five head that i had some really weird and uh unoptimized movement after i dug underneath that gate um when i was walking into kakariko village and that's because the developers got outplayed you know all the events that takes place in kakariko you know how like one of the children right here gets captured by a bokoblin and you have to get an opponent and you have to rescue them and stuff like that that entire sequence of events is triggered by a little cutscene trigger on the ground and they position that right after that gate but it doesn't extend all the way to the walls meaning that if you very carefully walk alongside the most outer edges of that area you can completely skip activating any of those events from starting and you can immediately walk into alden or walk into kakariko and never have to worry about any of it and now we're gonna do some tier collecting and you can also see the tear collecting can be very fast and much faster than you might remember because well one i remember where all the locations are i'm a speedrunner and two i can go back and forth between human link and wolflank but overall there's not too much to explain when it comes to the tear collecting so i'm kind of just gonna do a lot of cuts and clips to kind of just get through these tiers and done gg we finally collected all the tiers from both eldon and uh leneeru and we are finally done and ready to progress with the game i am so excited yay oh man what a great last half an hour that was now right now we're going to want to enter snow peak to obtain the ball and chain item which unfortunately is a required item due to the zan fight later on but you might know i need to obtain a fish here to complete this sequence well this is where another glitch comes into play they haven't seen yet known as map glitch so what i'm going to do is i'm going to warp right here but oh wait it doesn't warp me it takes up this menu what's going on well here is the clever thing what i did right there is i unplugged my controller and then i was holding d-pad right and the z button at the same time and then i plug my controller back in this is gonna cause the gamecube to input the z button and the d-pad right input on the first frame the controller is plugged in at the exact same time so it prioritizes the map which i then use to click on yes i want to warp away from here but the warp gets interrupted by midness text so the game now attempted to warp me away but wasn't successfully able to complete that entire cutscene which results in this weird glitch knows matt glitch you can see that i'm going through this deep fog right here and i'm not voiding out because normally you would void out if you don't have a fish and you know the yeti doesn't clear this fog and that's because of the glitch i just performed with map glitch enabled wolf link or link for that matter cannot avoid out in under any circumstances i can avoid out and also loading zones are now also disabled so i also cannot go through a loading zone so if i if i right now when i get to the top of this area i try to go through the loading zone to leave this area i would actually soft lock my game now you might think that doesn't sound useful at all because that just means i'm stuck here right i can't even enter a loading zone i can't watch cutscenes isn't that pointless well that's a bit of a lie because if a cut scene is activated through a cut scene it will pull you through and it will cancel out that glitch so by playing that song at that wolf statue it is not a cuts it's not a loading zone i'm going through it's a cut scene that puts me through the loading zone which does go through a loading zone and when it reloads the area it cancels out map glitch and i can now enter this loading so normally completely skipping all of the side quests you would normally have to do to go to snow peak and i can now immediately go up to the very very top of this area now you might be wondering why i go to snow peak and i'm going to explain fundamentally how the game's triggers works and what you are required to do to complete the game but believe it or not beating this dungeon is not required to be the game there is not a single flag in this game that actually checks for if you have completed snow peak the only reason we go here the only reason is because for one face of the zen fight you are required to use the ball and chained damage in nothing else damages him other than the ball and chain so we go here just for this single item now that doesn't mean that this is going to be a straight forward dungeon we're going to be using tons of glitches to go through this entire incredibly quickly this should be less than like a five minute dungeon right here so what i'm going to do first is i want to get this small key right here early so i'm going to target the gale boomerang here i'm going to target it right there and i'm going to target it a bunch of times here then i'm going to do a long jump attack i'm going to do a second long jump attack bam we get over to the chest early and we're gonna get the small key i'm now going to jump down and void out and here's actually a glitch that everyone can perform including you at home watching this right now um nintendo is not great at collision in this game in certain areas and this is a perfect demonstration of that if you do a jump attack right here you just clip through the floor just like that uh here is where i'm going to be using my one small key now normally i have to kind of cook up this cannon uh with all these cannon balls to be able to get past this ice monster right here however if i'm able to perform a glitch correctly i should be able to get in through this area without doing that so i'm gonna do is gonna get frozen i'm gonna do a jump attack right as he's turning around to get pushed by his collision through the door and then i'm gonna open up the door from behind go through the loading zone and i'm now in the boss room itself but if everything goes well right here i should be able to just get this ball and chain we're gonna go through here we're gonna go over here to make him throw it target his tail and one cycle beautiful immediately goes down immediately get the ball and chain and we are now tightly done with snow peak there are however um two more things i'm gonna do here before i leave with the ball and chain i'm gonna pick up some rupees this dungeon has a lot of rupees around it uh two specific 100 rupees actually and i will be needing 300 rupees later on so i can buy the big cannon so so we're going to pick up the ball and chain here and we're going to go here and we're going to go into this room and break this pick up the honda rupee and save and quit to get back to the beginning of the dungeon all right so after collecting a second 200 rupee i'm going to immediately bring out the most terrifying item in the game uh which is the oko and he wants to go back to his mama which we specifically placed out in lake bed temple and this is where we're finally gonna go ahead and actually beat the dungeon that's right we're finally going to beat this dungeon there are a couple of things that i'm going to have to do here so first of all i'm going to have to drop all my bombs once again because now when i got my legitimate bomb back i am back to having 30 normal bombs which is something i don't want to have i want to have the the water bombs here i'm going to do something smart as well normally you would have the bow and arrow to combine it with the bombs to shoot these down but if you take out a bomb and then c up and throw your gale boomerang the bomb is going to go along with the gale boomerang allowing you to break these stone peaks without the bow and arrow then i'm going to go under this waterfall and i'm going to start dropping all of my bombs because they instantly despawn once they had water now here is where the worst boss fight in the game comes up this boss fight right here is straight garbage unfortunately so this boss fight right here requires you to have the zora tunic i don't have the zora tunic a bit of an issue so we're gonna have to use a lot of clever ways to get through this dungeon first of all i can obtain the boss key which we're going to have to get around by doing this very precise boss key skip so i'm going to get on top of this railing here and then once i'm up here i'm going to try and slide down while i'm partially inside of this railing then i'm going to line myself up with my pouch on my back unfortunately i gotta clip back into bounce but that's okay okay one two three okay clip inside the boss room now here is where things are gonna start to get very spooky so to i'm actually gonna demonstrate right now i'm not even gonna do a single cut in the youtube video i'm gonna demonstrate to you right now why fighting more feel without the zora tunic is a bad time i'm just going to let this entire thing play out and i will let you get a visual demonstration of why this is a horrible fight half air half a second away from drowning as you can see just making it from the top of the arena to to the bottom of the arena almost takes your entire air meter so you might be wondering how's this fight even going to be possible to begin with well remember earlier how i showed you an upwards teleportation by doing this uh bomb trick with water bombs well this is where this color everything comes into play okay so remember normally you can only take out water bombs if you are standing on the ground with iron boots equipped so if you have iron boots on you press the button to take out a water bomb and then while he's in doing his half a second animation are taking it out you equip an item over the iron boots you are now swimming with the water bomb in your hand when you drop it the game thinks that you're at the top of the surface because you're in no way would normally be able to kind of be around without our boots with the bomb near you if you do it immediately you get teleported up to the top of the surface but if you wait at least one second when you press the button to release the bombs it doesn't teleport you to the top but it refills your air because he thought hey he can't physically be underwater because of this well here's the annoying thing right even if i do this trick to get away from him very quickly by after damaging him i unequip and equip myron boots to get back to the surface or to the bottom i should say you can see how little spare time i have right here to actually take up my own boots and perform this glitch and how more feel moves in the water is entirely rng based so i just have to hope that i get good rng with his swimming pattern so that he does not go to a bad location also right here if he swims in a bad direction i'm going to drown right here because i'm going to try and do a trick here beautiful first try where i attack him four times unequipped by iron boots then hook shot him again and then i can do the final blow attack and i got really lucky so that might have seemed like it's a really good easy boss fight but trust me if you watch my princess speeders you will know that this super like i would say half runs time about 50 of runs die right here to this boss if you just get unlucky and he swims downwards that second hook shot misses your drown if he goes left you drown you have to either has to go straight up or right and any time when you go up after you know getting water bombs if he decides to go away from you or upwards you have to keep going back down drop another water bomb to get another aerial fill over and over again that's pretty much perfect rng right there and is incredibly rare but yeah this is just a very bad boss fight and it's just not a fun time to do in a speed room but like i said thankfully we got perfect luck so that's more feel for you now out of the first three dungeons before you get the master sword you can skip two out of three of them but due to certain events that gets activated when you beat lake bed temple it is required that you complete lake bed temple no matter what because it is essential so that does mean we do complete this dungeon you probably saw we didn't even go to the second dungeon with the gorons and the first dungeon we only collected the giga boomerang but we left and this is also where one of the best songs in the entire game comes up so enjoy please help midna she's really sick please help us beast get out what no midna she needs medicine now [Music] all right here's where i'm gonna break everyone's immersion in the name of speed because i'm gonna turn into link to burn the spider web down [Music] and now midnight is fine and now midnight's sick [Music] all right and we are through the sad times of midna being sick chad we went through uh high roll and we will skip all the cutscenes seeing any context into what just happened but tldr midnight is safe midnight is healed she's all happy now we're all good and we can now go ahead all right so now after completing midness departure and after doing that entire sequence you're gonna see why we did all of that so the reason why we complete the third dungeon and the reason why we actually go ahead and help out midna there even though we can't skip it technically is because it does activate the events necessary to go on top of this tower and this tower uh has an npc that would give us a letter and this letter will allow us to gain access to arbiter's ground which if you don't know is very important and crucial for the kind of progression of the story and the game itself for twilight princess because by unlocking arbiter's ground you will now have access to the mirror of twilight which is kind of fundamentally like the main story and purpose for the second half of the game and also give us access to a item known as the spinner which is also a very useful item to have so that is why we go all the way over here and do all of this right now just to obtain this so we're gonna get the memo we're gonna jump down here and we're gonna head over to the canon show him the piece of paper and he will shoot us up to arborist ground now once i am over here and i'm about to enter arbor's crown i'm about to perform a math glitch a second time so i'm gonna unplug my controller i'm gonna hold d-pad right and z i'm going to open up the map at the same to try and warp at the same time as my z button prompt comes up i'm also you're going to safety save because if i fail this glitch i will actually soft lock my game so i think it's quite important to safety save here just in case then right here i'm going to equip the gale boomerang and we're going to head over here now the first step i'm going to do is i'm going to want to try and go out of bounds right here so i'm going to do this setup right here where i do a sword attack i get on top of here here we go now you if you're wondering why i activated the glitch known as map glitch like i did earlier remember earlier how i said you can't void out if you have mad glitch enabled well that allows me to just jump slash underneath this entire map however this cutscene trigger right here to activate the boss fight for this area extends almost infinitely downwards and upwards meaning that by going underneath this area i am able to get into this boss fight right here and normally obviously without mad glitch i just void out because i felt i fell for so long underneath the map but with map glitch i won't but you know cut scenes will still progress through the map glitch so it allows me to activate this fight and i can start the next sequence of events now i'm gonna get up on him and we're gonna start dashing through here and as you can see it's clearly a cut scene that's pulling me through the loading zone so it's all good and we are now officially at the entrance of arbor's ground gonna quickly pick up some hearts because i'm quite low in health and bam we're in the dungeon and we're gonna progress through there now there's a couple of cool glitches and tricks i'm gonna be using throughout this dungeon uh but overall it is still a fairly straightforward it's still a dungeon it's it's like a stereotypical kind of speed run through a zelda dungeon as you might imagine where you know use certain glitches and skips to skip you know small keys or certain areas but you know you still have to go through a lot of it so we're gonna start off kind of normal here uh we're gonna come up on our first skip in the dungeon itself actually though in this next room because in this um in this next sequence of arbiters round before we access the second half of the dungeon we have to normally collect and defeat for our pose which goes to all different locations now technically speaking how these posts work is when you complete one when you defeat one po it leads you to be able to go to the area for the second po second bow opens up the path to the third po etc now there is no way to get the third and the fourth pole early but there is a way to access the second po without the first one so we will be doing one post skip here so we will only be collecting three out of the four posts so at least we can do a sort of a skip here all right so now what we're going to do is we're going to target this arrow right here i'm going to do a long jump attack here and hold up right hold up mash a beautiful first try uh grab this ledge right here do a long jump attack here and bam we just skipped the entire first section of the dungeon and we do not have to complete the first po so now we can immediately head over to the second bow by the skip that i just did there okay right here i'm also going to completely break the second half of this dungeon normally you sink in the sand but by pressing the b button by doing attacks i can stay on top of that surface and normally you know that you have to go through like pretty much the entire half of this dungeon with the spinner to get this boss key but by using that little trick i did right there i can pretty much backwards immediately obtain the boss key now even though i have the boss key i do still need the spinner um to be able to complete this next half of the dungeon so i will be still going over here to get the spinner but thankfully i just skipped the majority of this kind of side of the dungeon so it should be pretty quick to obtain the spinner by going this way all right now this mini boss to obtain the spinner i think a lot of people remember this boss because this is a very annoying boss when you're playing this game casually however when you know how bosses work and more specifically how combos work in relation to enemies you can make this boss go from one of the easiest bosses of one of the harder bosses in the game to one of the easiest bosses this boss just takes forever to be it's so many cycles because normally how it works you know you press the b button you do four attacks you complete your cycle of your damage and then bam you know you start the next phase you have to do this over and over and over again but we're gonna skip all of that so first i'm just gonna hit him with a hook shot and then here look at this so i'm gonna hit him here and then i'm gonna do one two three wait a second one two three wait a second one two three wait a second one two three and you pretty much just unlock him i never complete my animation of four um and because i never complete my animation of four i never give the boss enough time that i never do kind of like a finish attack which you do if you do four attacks in a row and also never give him enough time to give him an opportunity to escape so they're doing three wait a second three wait a second you can just continuously unlock him and take him down in one cycle like that it's that easy and we can now go and obtain the spinner chat okay so now after getting the spinner i save and quit my game to get put back to the beginning of the dungeon and now i'm just pretty much going to backtrack to get to the last part of the dungeon because i have the boss key i have the dungeon item i have everything i need to beat the beat pretty much the dungeon right now we're just gonna get through this very quickly all right this is for the real fans out there for all the domination fans out there mario party 4. all right so after activating uh this warp right here i'm actually immediately gonna warp away i'm not gonna do anything else here once i unlock the mirror of twilight i'm immediately gonna leave i'm not gonna watch the cut scene or activate the mirror trial or anything all i care about for now is just simply to have this warp location so once i have the warp location above arbiter's round where the mirror is i'm immediately gonna work to kakareiko village and this is one of the biggest glitches in the game so one thing that is very fortunate for speedrunners is that when it comes to the mirror of twilight right you have four different pieces that you need to put together to you know get a proper mirror right but the game only checks for the last piece of the mirror because it assumes that you could not obtain the other piece like you know you cannot obtain the last piece without the other pieces first but by transforming into wolf link at the correct time right there i can clip through the statue i can walk up to where this cannon is when i say warp it's going to tell me no you actually can't warp away from here but by opening up the map zooming in and then zooming out i can't warp with the canon because for reasons it doesn't check for anything when you do that that way it's kind of weird but once if you do that you can then warp away with the mirror already letting me bring it over to the lake right here and i can then use 300 rupees to spend it on an upgrade and actually successfully upgrade this cannon now we've got the cannon over here and we've got 300 rupees we're gonna go over here we're gonna talk to him and he's gonna tell us that he can repair the cannon for 300 rupees which conveniently is the max amount of rupees you can hold in your rupee bag without upgrading i should say well at least we were rich for like 30 seconds chad all right and now we're in city in disguise arguably one of either the coolest or most annoying dungeons in the game depending on how you want to look at it and how your experience were i'm going to tell you right now your experience of beating city in the sky is gonna be very different from my experience of beating it and believe it or not i'm gonna actually teach you yes you watching this right now how to do a major glitch incredibly easily this is such an easy glitch to perform that i guarantee you everyone watching this will be able to pull it off first try so right here when you enter this dungeon right i'm going to safety save just in case but when you get to the beginning of the dungeon and you get right into this door which is the main door that leads to the main area of the room what i want you to do is turn into wolf length and then once you turn into wolf link and you're standing in front of this door all i want you to do is super slowly tap forward on the analog stick until the a button says open and then i want you to open it and if you got the glitch correctly you will see it right now the fan is not spinning you see that fan up there well that fan is supposed to spin to avoid you from being able to access that area immediately once you get the double claw shot however what determines that fan for some reason how nintendo the scientist dungeon is that that fan does not spin immediately when you enter the dungeon that fan has a trigger to activate it to start spinning which is laid out right in front of that door but you can't activate it if you're in an animation so if you slowly walk up to that door as well flank and then you press a as far away as you physically can you never walk over the trigger that activates that fan meaning that once you get double double claw shot you can avoid and skip a huge amount of sequences by simply just hook shotting up there now there's another backtrack thing this is a slightly harder trick but i still feel like within a couple of attempts you could also do what i'm about to do next after this after you go to this side of the dungeon and you pick up this small key right here a lot of people might remember that there's an event that's about to happen of a dragon coming over and breaking this bridge he's going to destroy the bridge that you're walking on here and it's going to result in you having to do a massive amount of backtracking as well well you can once again skip the dragon from ever breaking this bridge and avoiding all the backtracking so here's what i want you to do right now i want you to have the hook shot or the claw shot in your hand you are going to walk up right here once you're standing here you should target and you're going to get up top of this thing c up and line up your heart with this texture then wait for the wind to start blowing once it blows press a and then just mash the b button and you're just gonna simply do a jump slash and land over here that skips the cutscene trigger of the dragon spawning in and breaking the bridge itself which allows you to skip the entire backtracking sequence right there as well so pretty much all the backtracking that you remember from sitting in the skies can simply be skipped by those two simple actions right there that one like i said is a little bit more tricky but if you save you can try it over and over again the timing for the jump slash is not precise you heard i didn't even try and time it i just mash the b button and where you aim there is also not too precise also if a lot of you guys were wondering why we don't skip arbor's ground not only is it to activate the mirror of twilight but because city in disguise is required to be a completed dungeon there are multiple sequences like this one where you need to use the spinner so that's why the spinner is a necessary item also right here this mini boss fight is actually a joke if you know what to do to check this out so these enemies have a lot of health right but if you jump over here then do a spin attack they fall down into the void despawn and immediately die skipping the entire fight right there now i'm gonna enter this room and this room i'm gonna have to do a little bit of tricky skip i absolutely hate this skip it seems like it should be very very generous and if you know how like grabbing ledges work with the leaf in wind waker you would imagine it works the same way unfortunately this is like 10 times more precise than it is to do it with a leaf in wind waker so hopefully i get this first try sometimes this takes me like four or five tries to do what i'm going to do is i'm going to walk off this ledge to get a jump and then try and perfectly time the a input beautiful to grab this ledge as i let go of him and completely skip that side of the room and we're now already over at the mini boss area good fire boots and here is a mini boss skip actually this is a very slow and tedious mini boss but there is a way that you can actually skip it this is an actual pixel perfect trick thankfully there's a setup to get the positioning correct every time but you still have to do the uh you still have to be very very picky in your analog stick position so i'm going to roll down with iron boots take them off roll back up here take out my claw shod and right here oh first try beautiful there is a single individual pixel that is hook-shottable even though it's slightly behind the gate and if you're able to get that angle you can claw shot slash hookshot the target skip them in your boss entirely and then you can save and quit and here is the beautiful thing as well not only did we skip a ton of stuff with all the glitches we've already done in the dungeon you remember how the dragon was supposed to break the bridge well the game has set my save flag so to to avoid castles from avoiding the bridge from being broken once you open up the small chest you continue to respawn at this location instead of in the beginning of the dungeon until the bridge is broken but since i skipped the bridge being broken by the dragon i respawn here which is way closer to the center of the dungeon than the normal respawn would be in the beginning where the cannon is and since i already skipped it i don't have to worry about doing the skip again because once you skip it once you have forever skipped the dragon breaking this bridge so i can super easily first try just get over here climb these vines and go into the main room and like i said earlier we skipped the fan from starting earlier meaning that once we get on top of this pillar right here we can simply just hook shot at the very top and skip this all together so we're gonna hookshot this and bammer at the top and what a lot of you guys might know if you play this game before is that the boss key is at the top of this dungeon so it's not gonna be a problem to get it open the door and we get the boss key here is one of my favorite move movement sections in the entire run of twilight princess this is an amazing beautiful movement sequence and this really shows you the true power of long jump attacks so first by claw shotting as high up as you possibly can on these fans you can actually grab the ledge instead of grabbing the part that you actually claw shot i'm gonna walk to the right here stand here and then do this let's hope we get it target there target here and look at this bam all the way across the first one perfectly angles me midway on one of those fans the second one shoots me all the way forward perfect long jump attack letting me go to the end and not having to deal with having any of those spinning around and since we already have the boss key we can now simply just make our way over to the boss room alright so for this boss fight right here you might have a lot of fun memories with this boss fight and you might remember the fact that this boss fight is really really fun as a speedrunner can tell you right now this boss fight sucks because this is actually a side scroller if done perfectly it is the same time every single time there's nothing on this boss fight that as a speed runner is interesting as a speed runner yeah there's really nothing to say in terms of strategy here i'm really just kind of going through it like casually so all right so now the boss is finally done we picked up the hard container and we can now leave city in the skies now like i said earlier how this game functions right is that when it comes to the the twilight the mirror of twilight right it has multiple pieces right you're supposed to get obviously the first one from unlocking it at arbiter's ground and then there's you know one from the mansion there's one you get from um temple of time and then there's city in disguise but since it in sky is the last piece of the mirror when the game checks hey has he completed the mirror he does not look for all of the pieces it only looks at the city in disguise one because the game thinks that there is no way a casual player would ever make it to city in the skies and get the last mirror piece if he hadn't already completed the other dungeons so what that means is that if i now go to the mirror of twilight once i've completed city in disguise and i've gotten the last mirror piece it will immediately play the cutscene of the entire mirror getting repaired and me having access to the palace of twilight you're gonna see right now exactly that happening i'm gonna walk in here bam there's a cutscene i skip it by start and uh we can immediately go into the palace of twilight now but yeah just to give you some context into the meaning of barrier skip let me actually just give you right now a a good example windbaker the world record before barrier skip was found was about three and a half hours post barrier skip it went to an hour and a half and is now sitting at only 50 minutes even after all the glitches that we have found at this point right now if you were to do a no barrier skip speeder right now with all glitches that's been found in the past three four years in wind maker sun's barrier skip the speed run is still about three hours so the length of a no barrier skip windbreaker hd speed run is actually about the same length as a twilight princess speedrun so they're fairly equal in terms of how long you have to do it if you don't have a barry skip glitch uh there's not really much to explain right now by the way i did get the butter sword uh which we call the upgraded master sword uh there's just really no skips in this dungeon it's very straightforward you know what you have to do kind of casual play through here there's really nothing interesting to discuss or explaining unfortunately time for the zen fight and finish off palace of twilight the zan fight is honestly in my opinion one of the coolest boss fights in the entire game i love the sand fight i will say though these re-fights and some of them are not re-fights really because a lot of these bosses we never even beat to begin with but it's pretty cool uh there is only one thing about the zam fight that i really hate i guess two things one is more like a middle finger from xanthe and one is just an annoying thing in terms of speed running so i remember earlier how i mentioned that um morph eel is one of the worst boss fights in the game because i don't have a zora tunic and it's an underwater boss unfortunately xanthe has an underwater more feel part so once again we're gonna have to do some very precise water bomb straps to be able to survive her underwater so first things first we're gonna wait here hook shot attack attack attack perform the glitch to get full air now here i have to be very careful so xanthe is about to spawn in uh five different heads i think it is for four and zan spawns in the head that is the furthest away from you so i'm going to stand right here on this texture i'm going to wait for his nose to appear once his nose is fully visible in these statues i'm going to walk forward take out the bomb and do another air trick that should have been far away enough to now i guarantee that the spawn of the real xant and not the fake one is going to be in one of these two in front of me i'm getting gonna land hook shot and beautiful got it all right if you're slightly off on that timing and he does not spawn in one of those two you're gonna drown and you're gonna have a bad time get down from there's ants also this is my second most hated sand face not because it's difficult but because this is like i said the middle finger face remember we spent over 10 minutes in this speed run to go all the way to the mansion and obtain the ball and chain for this single thing right here hitting this guy's foot that's right that's it that's the entire reason we go and get this item no matter what damage tours you have bombs bow and arrow anything you name it nothing damages his foot except for the stupid ball and chain and by so xanthe thank you for making us spend more than 10 minutes of our lives getting an item just to hit your foot twice i'm not gonna i'm not gonna shame you for being in defeat but come on bro you you could have chosen a slightly faster method of going down sorry zant all right and now we've completed palace of twilight and we defeated zant there's nothing left to do but to go to hyrule castle chad and complete the game all right now here is the most important trick in the entire game no kappa in the main area of hyrule field or higher castle i should say before i go to actually break the barrier there's this ledge and the loading zone is sent so far out that what you can do is you can bonk the wall at the same time as the loading zone activates saving you zero seconds but allows you to show off some swag we got it so the run is valid if you miss that it's an invalid speed run in my opinion all right here is a really difficult trick chat to kill all of the enemies this is really difficult you have to press the button to take out a bomb and then you have to stand completely still first try baby now there's a couple of really cool actually fight skips in hyrule itself so there's a couple of arenas where you get locked into completing a fight with a bunch of enemies the first skip coming up is right here i'm gonna roll right next to this fence spam the start button to skip the cutscene hold right on my analog stick thankfully it has about a one second delay before it spawns in and i can skip the arena you can see all the enemies actually right here that i'm supposed to fight i'm just gonna say bye and roll right past them and here we are also going to do another little skip right when we enter this area so i'm going to open this door up here this one is much more precise than the previous one this one almost immediately spawns it in and has way more fights than the other one so i have to actually do a jump slash right here to not move as far in because i can't be pushed further into that circle if i'm in the animation of a jump slash and then immediately skip it hold right on the analog stick and we skip all of those fights right there we then hook shot our way over here jump down here and enter this door now we're gonna light this thankfully you don't actually have to look at the puzzle to know the order and how to do this if you memorize it you can do the whole thing by yourself so it's very quick to get through this puzzle it's not really a puzzle anymore when you know how to solve it uh in this next room as well i'm going to once again abuse the fact that the enemies um these enemies that have incredibly high amount of health have a one hit ko against the bombs uh it just goes right through their armor and pretty much immediately kills them so i'm just gonna run up to them with a bomb in my hand and they both immediately die and i can immediately go into the next room and we are now on to the last part of the run now we have to do a small little mini boss fight right here to get the small key all right get the small key now we're gonna make our way over to the big key let's go people have never seen and have no idea who they are and have no connection to whatsoever and somehow they have a bazooka in the zelda franchise thank you for helping out very cool individuals we got a gold okay nice all right so coming up here is the last couple of rooms of the dungeon itself this should hopefully go pretty smoothly if i go the right places beautiful so if you stand at the perfect location right there and then claw shot that lantern and you skip the cutscene at a specific time you can skip this fight as well so you do not have to do the last fight and you can immediately go over to dark beast cannon dark be scanning sorry that's breath of the wild beast cannon and now it is also time for some rng so zelda fight is very straightforward it's one of the most straightforward fights in the game specifically when it comes to the zelda fight um she has three different attacks she can create a triforce that damages you she can try and die for you and she can also do a laser beam where she's left vulnerable even with perfect rng the best fight you can have on this is a seven cycle she is guaranteed to do a specific amount of attacks in between each one of them so to get perfect rng she will do this attack in seven turns so that's one two three four five i think this is six all right let's see if we get perfect rng if so she will do a laser ball right now nope seven can we get an eight cycle all right well he's not too bad sorry zelda slash gannon all right that should be enough damage so now we should be able to finish him off with wolf link i hope beautiful all right now uh coming up on the on the ganondorf fight section here this is somewhere this is a part of the fight where i usually call out my viewers to all the viewers watching this right now both live and slasher on youtube a lot of people remember this specific portion and go this was so bad they remember how horrible zelda's aiming ai is here where zelda just keeps on missing her shots with this bow over and over and over again and it's just so bad well i'm here to tell you that unfortunately there is no ai related to zelda's aim right here zelda is entirely based upon your analog stick position so wherever you're holding the analog stick is where zelda will shoot so this is all related to you so when you're riding behind again here uh wherever you're holding your analog stick is going to dictate where zelda's going to shoot her lighters so once i get close enough here and i can start targeting ganon here wherever you are holding the analog stick is for she suits so as long as you make sure that you're holding the correct angle she will hit every time oh my are you serious i hit the horse again this is not the fastest fight unfortunately okay so right there for example i actually missed because of how much he was changing his angle that was not zelda being bad that was the fact that i held the wrong analog stick angle dude gannon can you please stay still it's really hard to aim i like how i'm like well if you missed shots here you were bad i guess that does however go both ways i am being bad right now either way like i said it is all done upon how you are aiming and if you aim like me then yeah you miss shots imagine calling out all of your viewers for missing and being bad then missing half your shots yourself i did it as a demonstration though i did it to demonstrate to the viewers how you should not do the fight and time gg three hours 54 minutes and 25 seconds there it is that's how we complete twilight princess any percent speed running that's it and there you have it there is the longest 3d zelda game in the entire franchise or any zelda game for that matter this is the longest zelda speeder out there out of any of them for the 80 category specifically and hopefully now you will have gained some more knowledge of the speedrun first of all you might have understood that it's not that this game doesn't have any glitches or skips it has plenty of those it's just unfortunate that uh due to the lack of barrier skip um we have a lot of requirements to beat the game but nonetheless i do hope that you enjoyed uh the speed run and i hope you enjoyed uh understanding fundamentally some more of the glitches and how they work and hopefully have a better understanding of this in the future if you want to watch me explain a windbreaker a speedrun you can click on the screen right now for that or if you just want to watch a random video you can also click on that don't forget to subscribe to youtube channel
